  1. Kirkland Baby Wipes: An Unexpected Way to Treat Tough Water Spots

    I use BKF and windex as my normal “deep clean” (I’ve done it maybe 3 times since March). Then, I’d just let it get dirty. I happened to be going to Costco last week and thought I’d pick up these wipes. Great find/hack to the OP. These coupled with a dry Costco microfiber afterwards wipes...
  2. Why does the WSJ hate Elon and Tesla? [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    I wasn’t trying to make a MSM argument. WSJ had been an outlet that provided a relative high level of quality in its reporting, it’s just recently really taken a dive.
  3. Quantifying overnight ("phantom") drain

    That’s excellent to hear. My experience has been varied, but it’s possible that the most recent update fixed the phantom drain again. My experience has been a roller coaster with some updates seemingly fixing it and then it’s out of whack again. Might be software download related.
  4. Why does the WSJ hate Elon and Tesla? [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Sadly WSJ’s reporting has really gone down in recent years. There have been increasing numbers of “hit” pieces marketed as journalism—not just TSLA but other large companies. There’s still some decent reporting, but definitely more agenda/click-bait reporting than journalism.
  5. Range Extender Battery will require install by service center (to be structurally mounted)

    It’s also how senior leaders and lawyers speak to cast doubt on any commitment to deliver. I’m not suggesting bait and switch…. But it was curious language. I don’t see the real benefit in the extender for the effort that it will require (mfr and install).
  6. Quantifying overnight ("phantom") drain

    Just a side point…. You should be arriving closer to 85% (maybe a little less), depending on weather, elevation change, speed, etc.
  7. Range Extender Battery will require install by service center (to be structurally mounted)

    Agreed. Some coverage suggests there’s more gap in the battery pack area that isn’t used. Assuming the plan is to fill more completely then that obviates the need for the extender. Very few people need that much battery. It would be nice for towing but as I posted I just got back from a TX to CO...
  8. Range Extender Battery will require install by service center (to be structurally mounted)

    “Any” range extender. Interesting verbiage. Definitely different than “the” range extender. Signaling hesitation in whether a range extender will be produced?
  9. Spare tire installed by service center.

    When you get your D-rings that will be provided for Foundation series, I think most people can do this setup for significantly less than the tesla price. That was my point. I wasn’t knocking OP’s decision. I was simply pointing out another alternative. That’s it.
  10. Spare tire installed by service center.

    I had the fortunate/unfortunate situation of buying a replacement tire just after buying my truck. A fence company was installing a new fence and left lots of nails near our driveway. I ended up with a nail in the tire and I tow on a not irregular basis. Upstanding contractor offered to buy a...
  11. PowerShare + 240v Outlet

    This is really only a loss if you’re trying to run a ton all at the same time, though. If you’re using this as whole home backup and you’re trying to manage through a prolonged outage, you’ll be trying to minimize load anyway. I know I’m stating the obvious, but it’s an important qualifier on...
  12. Random auto-leveling while driving?

    Are you sure you haven’t driven through that area before and set it to a different setting (high, medium, low) and the previous setting for that location needs to be deleted?
  13. CyberTent Mode to Level?

    Brilliant and amazing. Thanks for the tip. Working in the car right now and much easier now. ?
  14. CyberTent Mode to Level?

    Wait so what causes it to un-level after tent mode? Can you close the tonneau or is that why jack mode is needed?
  15. CyberTent Mode to Level?

    Has anyone used cybertent mode to level and just sit in the truck? Can you close the tonneau after the truck levels? I do not actually have the tent. Just want to level side to side.
  16. I asked ChatGPT: What is the best trailer for towing by an EV?

    I tow a 25’ Airstream International. As between a Basecamp and a Bambi, those are very different setups, as are many of the others on this list. We bought our Airstream 3 years ago and while I love our setup, there are things I would have chosen differently. I would have purchased a larger...
  17. Non-PowerShare home power

    Running the AC is doable, but as others have said, it depends on how long you want to run it and the specs of the AC. I recently had variable speed ACs installed (unrelated to CT purchase). I can run two at a time. Practically, would just move the family into master bedroom and run the small...
  18. 2024.20.7 software update now installing, DC Fast Charging improvements

    Well, “maintained up to 40%” is only talking about 20-30 seconds. It briefly hit 248 and then started falling off. But again, I arrived at 39% and departed at around 60%. When I departed, it was down sub-150 at that point. I never saw 5%-40%. I have an upcoming multi-stop, long towing road...
