9 - I’m a distracted and aggressive driver. I know FSD is a better driver than me, unless I’m in a high stakes situation. But when I’m eating an ice cream sundae with two hands it can’t be beat. When I’m looking for music or podcasts I can do it without worry. I can do two things at the same...
Makes you wonder if this is a security vulnerability. Fiber optic transmissions use LEDs to encode/decode transmissions, probably as IP packets. A clever hacker could point a camera at a CT and pickup the data, though I would hope it is encrypted. Encryption adds overhead and so it could be weak...
I think the primary use case is for active folks that run, hike, bike, surf, etc. that don’t want to strap anything to their bodies. I used to do that when biking to get full GPS and Bluetooth capabilities. Apple Watch already covers all the activities, as does Samsung, but now you can power off...
@kappaknight I recommend you go immediately to a service center and have them check the front knuckle assembly for a loose bolt. This happened to me and they never seen it prior. But everything’s new on CT. Took them a weeks to get parts and figure out if anything else was loose. Felt like what...
I use a pressure washer at home. None of that ever happens. I’ve had my CT for 5 months and washed it 3 times already. No issues whatsoever. Car wash mode would be the last thing you want to do if you have an inclined driveway.
Super simple solution that works for most situations, power down the truck over night. Most convenience features still work. Drastic reduction in vampire drain. The power button is one aspect I truly dislike of all other EVs, but when in use I still use walk-away locking without powering down...
It’s actually 12v, NOT 120v. I have this unit and run it with a 120v-12v converter that can handle the high amperage. Works great, but the heat generation is insane. I would never buy one that didn’t have the duty cycle and overheat protection. Most people will buy these for off roading, so 20...
Version numbers are significant. CY.XX.YY where CY is Calendar Year (not meaningful) means XX is a major release and YY is a minor release. If CY were significant then CY would mean major release which would be limited to annual major releases. That would make XX a minor release which could...
Whoa, touchy touchy. Didn’t know you were so vested in that Chinese POS.
It’s not my silly statement, it’s the manufacturer’s.
I might be misreading that, but I’ve seen many reviews where these cheapies can’t bring up a truck tire. The MFr’s point out the issues with those little jobbies...
I like that one but specs might not support off-road deflation to ~36 psi.
My interim solution is this Harbor Freight special until I decide to go with MF or VIAIR. Works well so far but need to do the 36 psi test.

FWIW, if you want to use existing high current 12v on the CT use the trailer hitch electrical. No converters required.
Simply adapt a lights and brakes connector in place of battery alligator clips or cigarette light plug. Cheap and clean solution.

Best advice I’ve read yet! It’s an easy process but makes the most sense for stainless. Just gotta find a way to keep it wet for 30 mins per CitiSurf instructions. Probably won’t bother during Texas summers.
Would this be a better option?

I have not purchased this compressor so no clue as to its quality or suitability.
Retaliation by China usually targets US firms manufacturing in China. Apple and others have been the target of trade retaliation. I’m sure Tesla Giga Shanghai will become a target if this passes.
I wonder if a current owner would be willing to stomp on the pedal as they would if they’re trying to floor it, but with an obvious shear force in the direction of the the top of the pedal? In fact, try to make it come off with your foot only. The design is obviously flawed, even if you can’t...
