@LeviHoliday4 The settings in the car which lie to you like cabin overheat and"show third party chargers" which doesn't show a single bloody non-tesla charger

@alex_bessinger @itskyleconner Thank you so much for the information as well as the inspiration! My car is a 2017, so apparently it's a gen3 charger, but while looking on parts.tesla.com, there is a 72amps onboard charger upgrade possible (1090835-00-C) so im gonna give this a try, thanks!!!
English
@uvannex @itskyleconner Programming it will require a Toolbox subscription, which costs $75 for 24 hour access (or $150/30 days, or $700/year).
You would effectively do the opposite of the config change showed in this procedure: service.tesla.com/docs/ModelS/Se…
English
@alex_bessinger @itskyleconner Honestly, with my car my long term goal is to slowly upgrade it into the best old school Model S I can, and 80amp charging feels like it would be necessary to achieve this... My problem has always been actually finding one to install...
English
@uvannex @itskyleconner It can be retrofitted by a 3rd party shop (like mine). Not sure its really worth the money to do it IMHO, unless you really need/want 80A home charging capability.
English
I want! 😛
Why did Tesla stop pushing the boundaries?

80A Dual-Chargers 💪

Long weekend roadtrip observation - Still far too many hw4 Tesla (distinctly juniper Y and highland 3) owners still driving manually (10 & 4 hands on wheel!). Tesla really needs to introduce more nuanced FSD products ie Weekly Pass, Daily Pass etc
Baymax@blorrior
Pricing and also barriers to adoption - 1 - Awareness - Even a two time model S owner friend since 2015 for e.g didnt know how capable the HW V14 is. I literally had him test drive my model Y and he bought one, transferred the FSD and now calls it a ‘game changer’ Suggestion - Mainstream advertising. Literally what the official Tesla account posts on X are billboard signs 2 - Pricing Tiers - $99 per month is fine but most folks on > 70% of the bell curve don’t have long commutes, need FSD for probably a road trip once in 3 months and it’s not justified to spend $99 per month on a recurring basis like it’s Spotify or an Economist subscription. Suggestion - Need a weekly fee, a day pass or even a pay per use like we already have on supercharging. Maybe have a ‘Buy miles on FSD’ pass. Allows someone to buy 100-1000 miles of FSD pass 3 - Map my Route - A lot of folks have commutes where they have to follow a certain route, navigate through certain parking lots, school drop off pick up routes, errands et al. Suggestion- Allow users to record a route and save it as a FSD favorite X and name it ‘School drop off route’. Next drive, they can just hit self drive favorite X and it will follow that specific route in its entirety. 4 - Nuances of the various modes - There are 5 modes on FSD and while I like all of em the way it is, a lot of folks want adaptive responses within a mode. Suggestion - Allow FSD to get into an exit lane 0.8 miles earlier even if it’s on hurry mode. No need to cause a potential road rage by overtaking cars on the exit lane and cut in 0.1 miles before the exit. A selection like ‘Merge into exit lane 1 miles before exit’ on all modes will be a welcome addition to calm nerves.

@MattWallaceTech Chances are because EA is mostly paying for the installation im guessing. Also, most cars would only pull 11kw, very few 21kw, so the shopping trip would be a moment anyways.

My local target now has a bunch of these Electrify America chargers. As nice as this is I wonder why they didn’t go with Tesla destination chargers because these are so bulky and just an eye sore to look at.
English
@JNizzleCizzle @spotted_model @mikegapinski My biggest fear with these was always responsiveness, but that looks properly smooth, and looks like it might solve a bunch of my issues with the car, thank you so much!!! Getting one now!
English
Good eye! Yeah it’s pretty responsive/instantaneous (considering atom) and fun to watch which motor is doing what during acceleration. Scanmytesla runs using @mikegapinski’s Tesla Android Project with an EVTV ESP32 CAN monitor hidden inside the center console storage where the plug is located.
English
I used to make fun of legacy S and X owners but honestly, I think I prefer the vertical screen. It literally makes sense for everything but watching a movie and I ain’t watching a movie.
English
@TXTeslaCowboy Before i tinted my car, the glare nade the screen impossible to see, so i added a matte one to the main touchscreen. Visuals are slightly washed out, but it's been an immense help regardless
English
Does anyone use screen protectors for Tesla screens? What is every ones experience with the quality? I'm thinking of buying for my Model Y 2026 Premium for both of my screens
Bulverde, TX 🇺🇸 English
@wholemars Android auto/apple carplay, i want to use abrp route planning and see all 3rd party chargers like ionna in nav. Otherwise, v14lite
English
What’s your most wanted Tesla feature request for the next software update?
English
@JNizzleCizzle @spotted_model Wait hold on, you can have scanmytesla in the browser? Screenshare or a special feature? Is it responsive? Currently using a spare phone, but this looks a lot nicer
English
@spotted_model Seriously underrated. Maintaining the map since it disappears if one does full screen FSD on the driver screen is extremely useful- and can add other apps like gauges even on aging hardware.
English
A genuine question to Tesla FSD subscribers: Which driving mode do you actually use most often?
For me, it's 90% Hurry mode, and I'm really curious what other people prefer or experience with the different modes.
• Sloth: Very conservative, sticks to or below the speed limit, few lane changes.
• Chill: Relaxed pace, usually a bit over the limit, calm and smooth.
• Standard: Balanced, follows traffic flow nicely.
• Hurry: More assertive, quicker passes, higher speeds.
• Mad Max: Aggressive, pushes the limits, frequent and fast maneuvers.
Share why your preferred mode and why…. 👇🏼

@S1123211SS @spotted_model You're kidding... I got mine the tail end of 2023... Oh that's BS... Thanks for the notice, new i know where to direct my displeasure
English
@spotted_model Basically all legacy S/X don’t have a window sensor for pressure (pinch sensor) so they don’t know when there is something in the way so in around 2023 it got removed cuz NHTSA BLAH BLAH BLAH super annoying ngl and my car had it so it feels like a step back
English
Is someone who has owned nine Teslas, it’s wild to me that in this 2017, I can vent the windows, but I can’t shut them from the app. Is this some sort of setting in my car or is this the way it is in, say 2017 or earlier?
English
@CrazyWeeMonkey Yeah, they're all hybrids with 2 power trains, one that runs the car and the run that run's the uncle's train set in the back lol
English
@AndyMasley Lmfaooo i unironically thought the logo was corrupted or something, didn't realize it was a disco ball!!!

Everyone complains about minimalist design until the company tries something fun and everyone reveals why all the companies have been forced into minimalist design
Farzad 🇺🇸 🇮🇷@farzyness
Whoever designed this needs to be fired immediately:
English
@future_yas It's a Chinese design. They actually like the cybertruck from what i understand
English
This thing is absolutely hideous! It's like a Prius and cybertruck had a baby. This will flop just like the Ioniq 6!
Tycho de Feijter@TychodeFeijter
Hyundai Ioniq V is a spaceship Will this car save Hyundai in China? It sure wins the spaceship price, and the weirdness price, and the daring-to-do-something-new price, and many more. Look at that wedge-shaped cabin, the crazy front wing, and the four-diffuser rear bumper idea. Wow. I don't think it looks too much like a Prius, a Prius looks boring in comparison. - Size: 4900/1890/1470, 2900. - Power: 140 kW or 168 kW. Top speed: 165 km/h. - Curb weight: 1782-1808 kg. - Battery: LFP. - Mechanical door handles. - Part of Hyundai's new strategic goal of "in China, for China, and for the world". The manufacturer is Beijing-Hyundai. Launch of the Ioniq V is set for late Q2.

@wmorrill3 Pfft, and mine tried to run a red light on a left turn, and i was like aw hell no, had to reverse back because wtf
English
@eliseo_mc @cglezv They already solved that with split pack on the cybertruck almost a decade ago now, they're just afraid of upgrading their platform. That's why they cancelled the S&X afterall, their words
English
@cglezv Para Tesla creo que el problema de pasarse a 800 V es tener que actualizar la red de recarga. No sé si las nuevas estaciones ya lo son.
Español
Queda poco tiempo para que a Tesla le suponga un problema relevante no adoptar los 800 V...
Y si crees que no, justifica tu respuesta. Pero vamos, dudo que me consigas convencer.
