    I might finally pull the trigger. $49k (+$1400 delivery) and $7500 credit puts the model y into CRV price range. And our kWH rates here are pretty cheap

    I love the cams on this vehicle. This morning, I was about creamed at an intersection. I was halfway through, when someone decided to plow through it...fortunately I saw him last second and stopped. The camera (dashcam) would have shown he was at fault.

    We've heard that once or twice. I'll believe it when they are sitting at the dealer lots ready to be delivered to the customers lol.

    I'll always give Elon/Tesla credit where credit is due. A lot of revolutionary/visionary ideas that made it into customer hands, but all of the over promising/under delivering on certain vehicles (roadster & cybertruck) has been bologna.

    Wonder why Rivian placed a limited of 110 on them.
    The Tesla guy usually runs high 11’s. He mentioned traction issues at the beginning

    I bought my mower in 2020 and it has the 7.5ah and after 5 mins of run time it goes from all 5 lights green to one and then runs for 20 more mins then stops. I live in South Tx where it’s thin grass o cut every 3 weeks in the summer and a small yard. Like this shouldn’t be happening

    I called as I have a month left in warranty and they said degradation puts run time around 35-40 mins so something is off she submitted a req for replacement. She says this needs manager approval so if I don’t get a call by Friday I’m okay.

    I said I better not get a call. Because the 7.5ah battery alone is $400, I’ll just go back to gas mowing. Not paying that just for another 3 years

    Sounds familiar. My blower battery is green, I use it for 30 - 60 seconds then I get the blinking red light and the blower cuts off.

    Good luck finding a decent gas mower.

    I baby my Honda - as they recently stopped making them. We have thick St Augustine down here in Houston....no battery mower is worthy.

    I wonder if Tesla started making mowers......

    My mower is Ryobi and mow weekly. I have five green lights, and by the time I finish the front and back I have 3 (most times..depending how quick it grew)
    My blower is Kobalt- usually get 3 green lights as well. I’ve had both for probably 3 years- no issues.

    Honda stopped making mowers FUCK. That’s the exact mower I had in mind.

    when I lived in KS I had .4 acre and had a zero turn ariens. It was overkill but made it so fast lol.
