Just took a shot of the night time version.

 

@T-Rex266 I immediately thought of your sweet pups.

Just add bacon...

 

I wonder if the dude holding the suitcases at the rear of it died??

 

Hey Tesla peeps… if you want to maximize the life of the battery do you not charge above 60% or 80% or?

 

I'm surprised.... no 'protein' shot??

 

80-90% for daily driving recommend. Charging to 100% for trips is totally fine, just not advised for daily

 

Are you window shopping for the wifey??

 

Perfect, thanks. That’s what I thought.

Not shopping… my son invited some friends up to visit during new years. One person drove 275 miles in her parent’s Model 3. She stopped twice on the drive to charge. When we plugged the car into a wall outlet to charge she mentioned keeping the battery no more than 60% charged to maximize the battery life.

Was just fact checking what her parents told her. As is often the case, the facts were in fact not facts.

 

I coughed my ass off and blew snot rockets all over the countryside trying to kick this cold today. Had intentions of only doing a 20-25 mile mountain bike ride, but ended up at 40 miles. I'm beat. I would estimate that only 3-4 miles were on pavement connecting trails, the rest was perfectly damp single track. Traction was epic.

 

And I thought you were gonna post a pic of you going main vein with decabol, after a lead in like that.

 

Monster.

 

I think the cyber truck at that location has a correlation to something. Can't put my finger on exactly what though?

 

we do 80-85%...because.

60% max is for vegans.

 

just catching up...did you see how well the Cybertruck contained that blast?

and the battery pack is still intact.

LOL.

the message they thought they would send.....turned out to be a Tesla commercial.


hunker down....this is just the tip of the turd.

 

Damn that's a monster ride! I raced NorCal NICA XC in high school and the Granite Bay stop was always a good time

 

Did you hear about the man who thought he was a golden retriever?
He went to the psychiatrist and said "Doc, I think I'm a golden retriever!"
The doctor said "Interesting, sit down on the couch and let's talk about it."
The man said "I'm not allowed on the couch."

 

Her parents probably told her 80%, lol.

I would of charged to 100% before the trip and then topped off for 10 minutes along the way

 

That was crazy, Tesla should use that CT in a commercial.

Tip of the turd.
You're correct though, these next couple weeks could be very interesting..

 

Who knows...she's pretty smart, but I didn't push it as her parents "only" drive Teslas and it wasn't worth the discussion. But I definitely would have left the house with 100% and not messed around at a charger...

 

Bring it on...I'm ready. It's time for a full reset...

 

yes siree

Bring
it
on

 

I would have put gas in my truck and not wasted time, making that trip with no stops.

 

I don't understand this logic... EVs not be able to be charged to capacity... I mean I understand the argument, but how can anyone be okay only using part of their already limited range??


That would be like saying your ICE vehicle will hold 30 gallonds of fuel, but carry the extra 60lbs load (per 10 gallons of fuel) will cause your vehicle to wear out 10% faster, so therefore we recommend that you only fuel up to 2/3 of your tank's capacity and lose 100 miles of range; which means more fill ups (stops to charge), more inconvenience, etc...

 

it's just a battery life thing.

80% is "ideal" daily. 100% is ok for travel and such.

if you use it like we do, 80% is fine...it has a full tank every morning. ~254 "miles".

that's the logical fallacy....EV's have a full tank every morning....ICE's don't.

I refill the Tundra every week....i use about 22 gallons a week. On Friday morning, I only have 1/3 my range left.

 

ok....

you can't use all the fuel in your 4R

in fact...we get all balled up @ 1/4 tank....and go fill up.

never using all the fuel.
