I have zero interest in remote terminal gaming. No thank you. Not sure if I'm the only one?

This may be a good idea. Wouldn't this delayed release of the current generation give the engineers additional time to improve and iterate on the following generation before release?

Yeah this is how it is for me as well. I like to see if someone has come up with a more concise method here and there.

I was 12, I self learned how to google properly, write html, css and photoshop, how to avoid online scams and advertisements, eventually this self learning grew into teaching myself PHP, SQL, how to build computers, setup arch linux into a

They aren't as heavy as most might think is my point. The average midsize car is 3361 lbs and the model 3 SR+ is 3600 lbs so 239 lbs is the difference between the two for an extremely good EV. It is very good to spread this information

It may be cheaper to go new with incentives vs used straight off Tesla.com, but I am unsure about overseas pricing.

How much money went to burnt gas instead of your next car since you bought it though?

You're looking at non EV specific designed cars. The Kia Soul is a conversion. Look into the Model 3, Model Y, VW ID3, VW ID4, Ford Mustang Mach E or the Chevy Bolt.

Tech forum on YouTube designed an adjustable mount that lets you rotate the display https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqpcv11eHWE

Ah I see, cool beans I do wish the 3 was a hatchback to fit larger stuff through the back. The Y might do better. There is no transmission to shift though :) haha

To be fair, road trips wouldn't suck a lot more, you just get to stretch your legs after 2 hours of driving (or a lot more if you have one of the 400 mile range model S!) I'd hope you stop to pee or something after 400 miles of dr

That's unfortunate that you didn't give it a chance. Next time try them out. My 2019 3 SR+ had a rattling issue with the phone holder mount. I brought it into tesla service center within the first week and they fixed it and I have

Yeah, gas costs a lot more here in California. I don't really commute a long distance but I do take my cars on road trips often and I'm the one who drives most often with friends (before covid anyway)

Not all of the tax money on gasoline goes directly to road maintenance I would guess, it also goes to environmental cleanup projects I believe. Also, remember that EV's are not as heavy in all cases. My 3 SR+ weighs just 3627 lb Also n

When I purchased the Model 3 SR+ the cost before tax was $32,790.00 including the Federal and State EV incentives in May 2019.

Actually, this includes the energy used by my water heater, refrigerator and heat/cooling over night after midnight as noted on the sheet. So the savings are even greater :) Also, the gasoline numbers are actual numbers at the pump. I

You can get a 120 mile range 2016 eGolf for a great price right now. Check it out. Bolt's are also going for very low cost ~$16-17k just a couple years old now.

I think you're missing the efficiency aspect. Gasoline carries a much larger amount of energy so having a far more energy efficient, say in my example 26mpg going to 130+mpg saves a lot in energy cost as well. We do not ride for free.

This is great. As an EV owner for almost 2 years now let me tell you you'll love the speed and savings See my energy usage and cost spreadsheet for details. Scroll to the right for the charts. https://docs.google.com/sp

To get around that go to the artist and start a song from their top playlist or an album and it will just play their songs.

As a music listener I love YouTube music app, it's great being able to listen to almost anything I want in high quality any time.

You need proper conversion tracking or you're gonna have a bad time

It still helps the at risk people to take it asap as you won't be a carrier, doesn't it?

The Tesla Cybertruck with 500+ miles range, plus the solar tonneau vault door that generates 40+ miles a day might be pretty good though. Super excited to see the production model with all the improvements Elon has been mentioning from his

To me the only thing surprising about it is that it's only 2.25X less efficient than a sedan haha :)

by radium3d 6y ago
I'm surprised it's only 2.25x less efficient really. I have my Cybertruck on order, you're not the only one interested in off roading on HN!

by radium3d 6y ago
It's a frame of reference. Just to get an idea of how much energy a big truck EV requires relative to a sedan.

The Hummer EV gets about 58mpge if it has a 200kW battery. That's 571 Wh/mile or more than 2.25x less efficient than a 2019 Tesla model 3 SR+ which gets 240Wh/mile.
