80fh2q | [Meta] Experiences rule | A majority of current front-page posts are experience threads (inc. Model 3 on Autopilot in Heavy Rain Four Army Guys One Model 3 Just rented a Model 3! which is literally just a picture of the Model 3 key card!). I believe these are technically against the rules but I don t think most users would agree that they should be taken down. Based on the number of upvotes users seem to find value in these posts. Sometimes the value isn t in the picture or the link but in the conversations resulting from the high exposure. The sticky thread does not seem to provide the same level of engagement. The Experiences rule is currently discretionary. While I trust the mods judgement when enforcing the rule the enforcement can seem somewhat arbitrary. Could we have an open discussion on the rule? I would love for the community to determine a more distinct set of guidelines. This would save time for both posters and mods when submitting (or taking down) new content. Thank you! | kodek64 | 2018-02-26 19:02:22 | 38 | duv5qs9 | I personally don t find much value in a thread about someone s personal experience. I find less value in a thread where a person is outwardly debating whether they can should afford to buy a Tesla. To me a thread is valuable when it offers value to the community as a group. The something special thread what features do you want to see in the Model S refresh or Model 3 battery hacked are examples of discussion and information that is useful to the community overall. | TheNewJasonBourne | 2018-02-26 19:10:28 | 12 | Evolution of Tesla Subreddit |

Thank you! | kodek64 | 2018-02-26 19:02:22 | 38 | duvcrt9 | It is frustrating as someone that has been following the Model 3 since the early days to see the same questions the same pet theories the same criticisms the same financing questions the same trolls over and over again. I m looking for information about the vehicles that wasn t previously known. I m looking for unique information and conversation. I m trying to get information about orders and production rates and common issues. I m especially looking for teardown debugging and leaked information. I find the constant onslaught of pictures of a car or simply a key card or a video of autopilot driving instead of a comparison video of autopilot to be a big distraction. But the tsunami of I m thinking of buying or how can I afford or what color should I get and _especially_ the pictures of the order confirmation screen threads absolutely ruins these communities. I tried joining a private FB group a while ago in the hopes that it would have less of that going on than this subreddit but at this point that group is pointless and unusable. I understand people are proud of owning a car they like. I get the fact that people have questions about the process and options and features that will come some day. But at this point the FAQ Wiki Links on the right contain all of that information. Maybe we could add a link to a pictures megathread. Maybe we could do the same for financing options questions. What sucks is that this means the mods have to constantly be watching for this content deleting it and sending people to the appropriate place. So it fixes the problem the users see but makes it worse for mods. As for how these posts get to the front page I _strongly_ suspect some form of gaming of the system. Four dudes in a car is entirely unremarkable. And honestly regardless of the upvotes it was a violation of the rules set out here. Allowing the rules to be flexible like that means they aren t rules at all. It sucks to delete a thread with lots of upvotes but as this subreddit gets more popular it s going to attract more of this. Draw a line in the sand and stick with it. Otherwise remove the rule and allow people to post whatever picture of their car they like. | drdabbles | 2018-02-26 20:53:41 | 10 | Evolution of Tesla Subreddit |

Thank you! | kodek64 | 2018-02-26 19:02:22 | 38 | duv6sq4 | To start everyone please read [this](https: www.reddit.com r teslamotors comments 7m9zc2 growth_of_rteslamotors_part_deux ). u 110110 and I have been having discussions on this as well. Its a hard line to draw especially if we don t have time to review the videos posts or some just get through and gain enough popularity that we leave them. We are currently working on the new Reddit Alpha design. I m hoping detailed flair may be able to help but who knows. We know the megathreads aren t the best which is why we allow everyone to discuss pretty much anything (including their experiences) with a [Discussion] tag. We are just trying to keep the front page from being flooded with Orders Deliveries spottings etc. I know you all don t see it (especially if we are quick) but despite the rules people try to post crappy pictures or just their order confirmation many times daily. And I know some of you WANT to see those posts. Others absolutely do not. Some people think this should be a sub for pretty Tesla pics others want only news others want some news and some pics others just want text discussions. It s hard to make it work for everyone. Personally I would love it if there was a way to use flairs so that people can see whatever they personally want to see. Unfortunately that isn t an option right now so we have to figure out some sort of way to organize. Our current solution is megathreads for personal experiences and investing while considering the general idea that stuff talking about yourself your Tesla your experience isn t quite as important as stuff that everyone wants to know. Again it s hard to make black and white rules when most everything is in a grey area. I agree the enforcement can look somewhat arbitrary especially when we aren t here and stuff gets through. We are open to suggestions. Please do not suggest just let everything through and up downvotes will handle it . That s not going to happen its a fucking nightmare. The sub tried that long ago before we had anything close to this number of subscribers - and we had numerous complaints about signal to noise ratio and crappy memes pictures etc flooding the front page. | dieabetic | 2018-02-26 19:26:22 | 9 | Evolution of Tesla Subreddit |

The problem is that there are two main types of r TeslaMotors subscribers people who visit the sub directly (on hot new or whatever) and people who just visit reddit s homepage and are subscribed to r teslamotors. The thing is that the first type is sort of the soul of the subreddit if you will because they are the active users. But the second type is actually in the majority by a wide margin which is why we have over 200 000 subscribers but rarely more than 2 000 to 3 000 users at the same time. The majority is the one that boosts those pictures and memes in the thousands of upvotes while the active users focus on discussions news and things like that. So the question is do we try to cater to the core active users or the majority of passive subscribers? Personally I think that we should focus on active users but of course I am biased since I am one. | FredTesla | 2018-02-26 19:30:09 | 5 | Evolution of Tesla Subreddit |

Such as a Red border for Tesla Vehicle products or Green for Tesla Energy or Blue for News etc. I know it won t help with specific experience threads but for quicker identification of post types. If we relaxed some Rule 4 stuff people would easily see what dominates. Just talking out loud. cc: u dieabetic | 110110 | 2018-02-26 21:42:10 | 5 | Evolution of Tesla Subreddit |
7ibv7c | [Meta] Is there a threshold for Model 3 photos to be treated like normal photos? | Question to the mods: when will the current rules regarding S and X photos begin to apply to 3 photos? Now that consumer deliveries are beginning and we know basically everything there is to know about the car sightings are really starting to flood the new queue. I don t have a problem with that per se and I upvote them all but I imagine there should be a certain determined point at which it s time to flip the switch and accept that the 3 is just as ubiquitous (as far as sightings go) as the heavily-moderated S and X.

9tpwrm | [Meta] Please stop obsessing over software updates | In the past couple months I ve noticed a rising trend of people posting and commenting about waiting for software updates trying to predict when theirs will arrive and I just feel like someone needs to say it s a waste of time and [reddit subreddit social media] space. I understand everyone is excited for new features and want to try them out. I m impatient for new features too I get it! But spending your time watching wifi logs and trying to compare VINs is pointless and not a good conversation. It also doesn t look very good to new owners coming into the community for the first time that people just talk about waiting for software updates. Why do I think these topics are moot? Well because there s nothing you can do to predict when you get it. You will get it when you get it. There is **ZERO** correlation between any information you as an owner find and when you will get your next update (with the small exception someone mentioned of their car not technically being marked as delivered and some other small edge cases--not the majority of owners.) My car when updated to 39.x was both before and after friend s VINs disproving update via geofence. And they also have lesser and greater VINs numerically disproving that updates are sequential by VIN. Really why would software be updated by VIN? that doesn t make any sense. If Tesla were doing things right it would be an automated rollout that does load balancing for cars in different driving conditions to have the widest (read:most diverse) release possible so they have the widest net to catch errors and bugs.

9tpwrm | [Meta] Please stop obsessing over software updates | In the past couple months I ve noticed a rising trend of people posting and commenting about waiting for software updates trying to predict when theirs will arrive and I just feel like someone needs to say it s a waste of time and [reddit subreddit social media] space. I understand everyone is excited for new features and want to try them out. I m impatient for new features too I get it! But spending your time watching wifi logs and trying to compare VINs is pointless and not a good conversation. It also doesn t look very good to new owners coming into the community for the first time that people just talk about waiting for software updates. Why do I think these topics are moot? Well because there s nothing you can do to predict when you get it. You will get it when you get it. There is **ZERO** correlation between any information you as an owner find and when you will get your next update (with the small exception someone mentioned of their car not technically being marked as delivered and some other small edge cases--not the majority of owners.) My car when updated to 39.x was both before and after friend s VINs disproving update via geofence. And they also have lesser and greater VINs numerically disproving that updates are sequential by VIN. Really why would software be updated by VIN? that doesn t make any sense. If Tesla were doing things right it would be an automated rollout that does load balancing for cars in different driving conditions to have the widest (read:most diverse) release possible so they have the widest net to catch errors and bugs.

The bottom 1% of all firmware out there. You start asking questions is something wrong? Because tesla s process is hidden until you have a successful download. If they just had a spot to show were you are in the waiting to download queue and a error message if something went wrong. It would go a long way to calm a lot of talk of reading chicken entrails. | voarex | 2018-11-03 02:09:17 | 21 | Tesla Software Update Analysis |

When people were discussing the waves of updates coming in I checked my own car. I was able to update my car and had V9 in the morning rather than updating later that day. Additionally not everyone knows that connecting the car to WiFi will have you receive updates faster. Arguably a benefit for new owners. Completely worth it for me - just not that much of an issue. Of course things are different now that we have the app alert but I personally don t feel like the postings were nearly obtrusive enough to warrant much complaint. | ff5r | 2018-11-03 01:03:40 | 17 | Tesla Software Update Analysis |

All the areas on my daily commute that would fail are now smooth as silk with no issues. I pushed the limits yesterday trying an area that is a sharp right turn at the top of a hill which turns right going Down and the AP alarm went off at the top of the hill but it instantly found the road and reengaged. It didn t even ask me to take over and it stayed in the lane amazing!!!! | mysterimandds | 2018-03-17 11:50:31 | 15 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

80qhyx | [Meta] Updated Announcement bar to be more prominent in an attempt to make things a bit more participation focused adjustment questions inside. | I m referring to our Q& A Experience and Investor Megathreads. Currently things are set as such: - Q& A - Monthly (Created manually at the beginning of each month) - Experience - Monthly (Created manually at the beginning of each month) - Investor - Bi-Weekly (Created automatically every 2 weeks) Do people feel a monthly Q& A megathread is useful to search for answers on a monthly basis or does the thread get too large to make it usable?

8nw7i0 | [Meta] Wanted to talk to everyone about your thoughts on the current Reddit redesign in r TeslaMotors | Not sure how many folks know this but you can go back to our old design by changing your bookmarks to https: old.reddit.com r teslamotors or going to [your preferences](https: www.reddit.com prefs ) and unchecking Use the redesign as my default experience . That aside I have to keep the design of the sub pretty consistent and I m trying. I know some things are off and we re kind of stuck with our current sidebar system. But some things have been moved up to the top menus (from the sidebar) like the delivery checklist among other things. They haven t yet enabled CSS but I can t wait until they do. I also hope they ll let us do something about that font.... not a fan of the font. Anyways just wanted to have any overall discussion and just get folks thoughts on the sub between the two. There s no real point in taking a poll as the two will seem to exist for a long period of time just wanted to talk about it with everyone. Please don t forget I m always open to suggestions and ideas. I don t know what s best but would like to make the best experience possible that I can. Just shout. I do know there s an inconsistency with the General flair color this is a known issue that Reddit is aware of. Hopefully this will get fixed soon in the redesign. And I ve also put some extra items in the top menu bar (like the megathread links). I m open to suggestions.

8a3pxl | [Meta] We re looking to revamp user flair and we re looking for your input. | For the last year we ve made a bunch of changes. Ultimately we re just trying to make this place better. Currently we have a small selection of flair (and it s limited) but we re looking to make it better. Keeping Reddit s upcoming redesign in mind we still want to allow people to have fun with it. You may have noticed user flair really hasn t changed in a few years and that s because of it s tight integration with CSS and the way it appears I had to learn the depths of CSS and be cautious of how things tied to it are implemented.

Uniformly themed fun expressive and tied to your personality is what we re aiming for. The things I can come up with off the bat (as far as what we re looking for) are things like: Owner Multiple Tesla Owner Optimistic Pessimistic Devils Advocate Super Fan! I live in Elon Standard Time Investor Long Investor Short (maybe) I crave OTA updates!... etc you get the picture. Really trying to make this something that you can change if you wish based on how you re feeling. Obviously if it s something you d like to change often too you can. Looking at what we have now we ll likely still do custom flair because we want people to have a choice but it ll have to work with what we re doing now vs. what we re going towards.

8a3pxl | [Meta] We re looking to revamp user flair and we re looking for your input. | For the last year we ve made a bunch of changes. Ultimately we re just trying to make this place better. Currently we have a small selection of flair (and it s limited) but we re looking to make it better. Keeping Reddit s upcoming redesign in mind we still want to allow people to have fun with it. You may have noticed user flair really hasn t changed in a few years and that s because of it s tight integration with CSS and the way it appears I had to learn the depths of CSS and be cautious of how things tied to it are implemented. Over time as we ve made adjustments to the sub [Part 1](https: www.reddit.com r teslamotors comments 74nswk growth_of_rteslamotors ) and [Part 2](https: www.reddit.com r teslamotors comments 7m9zc2 growth_of_rteslamotors_part_deux ) (which are always pinned to the top of my profile btw) we ask the community what they d like to see. Uniformly themed fun expressive and tied to your personality is what we re aiming for. The things I can come up with off the bat (as far as what we re looking for) are things like: Owner Multiple Tesla Owner Optimistic Pessimistic Devils Advocate Super Fan!

Graphics masters please feel free to do your magic to spot any changes better like with overlays etc. Also the wheels seem to be of different size so might need to normalize the images. | PM_ME_A_NEW_USERNAME | 2018-01-01 21:55:07 | 26 | ds2212n | They might be slightly different but to me it looks like the top photo was taken at a slight angle whereas the bottom photo was taken directly from the side.

azu9fb | [Model 3] Does anyone regret their wheel choice? (18 Aero vs 19 Sport) | I see a lot of conversations in regards to the current wheel choices. & #x200B The 18 s will provide slightly better range sound softness of ride whereas the 19 s will provide slightly better handling looks (subjective). & #x200B I want to order my model 3 this week. I am ordering the Long Range AWD in either: Pearl White with 18 s (caps off) Midnight Silver Metallic with 19 s & #x200B I live in New York and drive a lot for work. I currently drive a 2017 Lacrosse loaded up and although I enjoy the smooth ride I do crave a sportier drive. & #x200B All other topics ask which is best which leads to biased conversation. I want to know instead does anyone regret the wheels they chose (specifically in regards to noise handling softness or harshness)? Edit - I ordered a LR AWD in White with the 18 s.

For the 18 s without the caps on I think it looks great a sporty look that also look a bit meaner and the color is great. The 19 s well I love them too. My previous car had 17 s so 19 s just feel almost over the top for me. They have great feel but you do lose a bit of range. & #x200B Ultimately between the two if I had to choose I would go with the 18 s for practicality and versatility and they still look great. They re nice because I find most 3 s with the 18 s leave the caps on (for now and in my area) so you can still differentiate a bit. | altimas | 2019-03-11 14:52:50 | 15 | Tire and Wheel Maintenance |

I suppose the question to ask is whether the version you are buying has enough range for what you typically do. The improvements in Supercharging make the question a bit more moot than it was before. Edit: If you have the caps off your efficiency gains are lost for your day to day driving so maybe you don t care about that. | NoVA_traveler | 2019-03-11 14:48:10 | 12 | Tire and Wheel Maintenance |

Additionally they have a significantly shorter stopping distance. I m currently very torn between the aesthetics and performance of the 19 vs the road trip monster capability of the 18 w aeros. I also have a weird soft spot for the aesthetics of the aeros. I m also irritated that I can t get an efficient version of the P3d (I m talking wheels) as I simply can t take the large hit in range given my need scenarios (like driving 120 miles to my parents and back another 120 miles in a day without doing some hypermiling efficiency boosting). | TheBowerbird | 2019-03-11 22:06:08 | 5 | Tire and Wheel Maintenance |
4cyy53 | [Model 3] How about a full-windshield augmented reality HUD instead of the driver dashboard? | I was thinking about the missing dashboard screen in the Model 3 while driving home tonight and came up with a solution that I d be really happy with: a large HUD projected onto the windshield possibly even covering the full field of view. Why is this needed? I think the driver needs more immediate information about the car s state than just the speed and basic Autopilot status and that this information shouldn t be hidden in the corner of his her field of view on the central display. Think about all the data shown in the Model S X dashboard screen: there s speed range efficiency AP status including recognized lane markings and other cars bikes it detected various warnings and more. And all of that data is large and immediately visible to the driver at a quick glance. How could one make this data even more accessible to the driver and spare interior clutter at the same time keeping the minimalistic interior style of the Model 3 prototypes? Use a HUD of course and show the information right where the driver is looking anyway - on the windshield. Look at this video from a short while ago that shows the vision of the Autopilot sensor suite: https: www.youtube.com watch?v=_dvyzAA1Cn8. This is basically all the same data that is currently shown on the Model S X Autopilot display in the dashboard: http: i.imgur.com Z8z3tMR.jpg. The information is coming primarily from forward-looking cameras and correlates very well with what the driver sees himself. So why not combine the driver s vision with the car s and show the Autopilot data directly in driver s sight? Use the driver s point of view as a reference for the projection onto the windshield. Outline the detected cars lane markings and road signs with a subtle highlight - it shouldn t block or distort the driver s view in any way but show to him that the car sees what he sees. Place other data around the driver s view not obstructing anything but being immediately visible without taking the eyes off the road or even changing the eye focus (a HUD can be projected so that it is in focus at a distance ahead of the car). Aside from the convenience this can also be an important safety feature. Imagine driving in bad weather conditions with a limited view ahead. Driver s eyes and the car s cameras might not be able to see far but the forward-looking radar can recognize a barely-visible obstacle in the mist ahead - and when it s highlighted in the driver s field of view he s more likely to see it in time. Potentially dangerous traffic elements can be highlighted more aggressively such as a pedestrian barely visible between parked cars on the side of the road ahead - giving the driver more time to sense and react before the Autopilot has to take emergency action by itself. Finally lane markings street names and traffic or highway signs can be shown based on GPS and map data even when they wouldn t normally be visible at all. Many modern cars use small projection HUDs to show some of the data listed above already (mostly something like this: http: i.imgur.com SHMr0zU.jpg). But in almost all of them the HUD is an optional extension of a normal dashboard. I propose to extend on this idea and to make it an integral part of the car s interior and the driver s interface. I know it sounds futuristic maybe a bit much. But isn t this exactly what Tesla has been doing with their cars so far - surprising us and the industry with features and ideas that were until them unheard of? Let me know what you think in the comments :) | olexs | 2016-04-01 23:51:24 | 30 | d1mi4yj | This or something like it was my first idea-reaction to seeing the 3 inside. First thing to consider would be the increase in cost such advanced tech will cause. Im relatively sure they stripped it to the current version to keep the price low while offering other potentially much more important benefits such as supercharging and autopilot hardware etc. Having a full on AR HuD will probably raise the price up maybe considerably. To partially solve this you can: - offer it as a special upgrade option. - reduce the amount of data projected to essentials only. Which would also be good way to keep the windshield clutter free and therefore - clear. I have to say all the examples of HuDs ive seen so far seem like they would be too distracting for longer usage or especially at night. So this needs to be taken into consideration in the design which should provide several options to choose from for different weather conditions and provide some level of personal customization option too presets we can save profiles for different drivers. All of these are just the most basic options in any such visual GUi systems today. I would only project the critical driving info on the HuD making sure it is non obstructing or too eyestab happy with strong colors and visual design while most of secondary options you dont really need to look at while driving should be still kept on a separate screen(s). | SurfaceReflection | 2016-04-02 01:02:06 | 6 | Tesla Sentry Mode Setup |
ag38x4 | [Model 3] Just got 2018.50.5 - nothing new in release notes but went for a drive and noticed regen with winter tires now works properly! | Release notes look the same as far as I can tell. Went for a drive and noticed regen with winter tires now works properly! I have the official Tesla aero winter tire kit. Before this update I got very low regen (regardless of battery temp) until the car slowed to a seemingly random speed. With this update the regen seems completely fixed - same as all seasons. | weedproblem | 2019-01-15 01:49:27 | 71 | ee3cxyj | The Regen issue was improved in 2018.50.

6d2j9b | [Model 3] Pre-order options selection date of transaction | Good morning! I couldn t find this after searching so i m posting. If it s asked and answered i ll remove. I got in line and eagerly plucked down my deposit sight unseen on 3 31 like many others and as we draw near to production beginning I have a few questions i d love to hear from the community on regarding my situation. 1)The dual motor option is coming months later. Is this delay reflected in the date I order or the date of delivery? What I meant is do I order my car at the same time and the delivery date is +6 months or do I have to wait the 6 months before ordering? 2)I live on the East Coast in South Florida and as I understand it priority roughly follows your spot in queue and moves West to East (makes sense spatially right?) Is this reflected in the order or delivery date? Finally and the dual motor one is where I am most concerned here how would these factors and their effect on scheduling affect my chance at maximum tax credit? I m hopeful that I can order in my spot in queue and all of this just affects the delivery date. I m patient and I own my current car outright so I don t have a lease to align to delivery or anything. Thanks for your insight i ve been subbed for sometime and have enjoyed lurking here! | odinthundercock | 2017-05-24 14:39:34 | 14 | dhz9lrt | The word was that you ll be able to defer your order if you want Dual motors. You may still get maximum credit if the Dual motor option becomes available in 18Q1 and the 200k domestic is hit 18Q1 (most likely scenario) as full credit will then run to the end of 18Q2. | purestevil | 2017-05-24 14:45:59 | 5 | Tesla Delivery Woes |

It s almost entirely a visual difference they re nearly identical aside from the way the front end looks. The nosecone version is older it looked the way it did because Tesla figured more people would be willing to buy it if it still at least *looked* kinda like it had a grille. After they d sold a bunch of em and were a more well-known brand they swapped the front fascia for the facelift version which causes less drag and thus improves efficiency. | SilverlightPony | 2017-08-16 03:16:04 | 16 | Tesla Model Sightings |

The nosecone single motor cars have an enourmous frunk the dual motor cars have a smaller one. Facelift cars are even smaller with no difference between dual and single motor. Also the facelift has the giant hepa filter. | _gosolar_ | 2017-08-16 06:10:10 | 6 | Tesla Model Sightings |

So if you see the big black nose cone you know that model is prior to April 2016. Any model S with the refreshed fascia was manufactured in April 2016 and forward. | rodrego | 2017-08-16 03:14:46 | 5 | Tesla Model Sightings |
c1qyls | [OC] Tesla s 2018 R& D expenditures % to revenue and compared to other auto manufacturers | I knew Tesla spends a lot on R& D (all those sweet product lines) and then I saw an article on how much Volkswagen spends the most $ of all auto companies. But I wanted to see how that $ amount stacked up against Volkswagen s total revenue and what that was compared to Tesla. So I did a quick breakdown in how much Tesla spent on R& D compared to their competitors based on 2018 numbers. This is based on a relatively quick search so I welcome verification on the numbers and will change if I goofed. & #x200B But here s the 2018 rank based on R& D % of revenue & #x200B |Company|Revenue|R& D Expenditures|R& D % of Revenue| |:-|:-|:-|:-| |BMW|$109.37B (€97.48B)|$7.73B (€6.89B)|7.1%| |Tesla|$21.461B|$1.46B|6.8%| |Volkswagen|$264.8B (€235.8B)|$15.32B (€13.64B)|5.7%| |Daimler AG|$187.4B (€167B)|$10.22 (€9.11B)|5.4%| |Ford|$160.338B|$8.2B|5.1%| |General Motors |$145.828B|$7.3B|5.0%| |Honda|$142.591|$7.2B|5.0%| |Toyota|$271.976B|$9.7B|3.6%| |Fiat|$123.9B (€110.41B)|$3.42B (€3.05B)|2.7%| |Nissan|$108.77B||| Notes: * **Interesting -** Even though BMW s revenue decreased from 2017 ($110.25 vs $109.37B) their R& D % increased significantly from 2017 (6.2% vs 7.1%) \[2017: $6.85B on $110.25B Revenue\] * **Also Interesting -** Tesla R& D % dropped significantly from 2017 (11.7% vs 6.8%) \[2017: $1.378B on $11.759B Revenue\] * Having difficulty finding Nissan s 2018 R& D $ | stefeyboy | 2019-06-17 18:12:36 | 50 | ereyy3w | Of course Tesla % R& D is down since revenue is up. They are smart not to increase R& D. Costs need to be controlled. They are now better balanced. Next to ramp up Shanghai and Model Y. With these ramping they can raise money for another Gigafactory in Europe and probably another in China. Then the US should be able to absorb another Gigafactory in the US. At this point there will be a bloodbath for auto manufacturers and someone is going to be suffering more than the others and will die. Too many manufacturers today. There will be a settling. | DrElectrons | 2019-06-17 18:28:25 | 11 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

You d be driving for 3-4 hours at that speed on a freeway. If you re driving at typical speed in city (25 mph) that s 10 hours. Adding range wouldn t make that much of a difference. Some more range would be better but wouldn t make that big of a difference. Good point. | yutz23 | 2015-03-19 16:19:12 | 17 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |
