    Dammit. Small rock hit the windshield right in the middle bottom section. Small crack is making its way up. Sigh. I have glass coverage, but I don’t think they’ll resolve with Tesla factory glass.

    and...if you use me/us as an example, an onboard tire fixer would have helped us ~2/10 events.

    low profile tires are fun...right up until they loose air.

    plan accordingly.

    that's harsh.



    We don't carry a jack.
    But, at home, I use the low-pro 2 ton model from harbor freight.

    and I use the Tesla pucks. you better have a set of these in the car.


    I'll tell you this....Tesla road service (Houston area)is damn awesome.
    The one time she was stranded...Tesla was there in 20minutes.

    I'll be buying a winter wheel and tire set from Tesla soon, so I'll have spares that way.

    There is a little spare donut tire available to keep in the vehicle, Modern Spare might be the company?

    I'll be ordering a "Modern Spare" as soon as I get a delivery date.

    I reckon we will put it to good use.

    Supercharging is now $.36 in temple, tx

    used to be $.30

    at $.40 is about the break even

    I feel sorry for young folks that bought a Tesla to save gas money

    charging at home is the ticket.

    Nah. Unreliable chargers imo. Never used it, but from what I’ve read. Would rather just SC or use a hotel charger is staying over.

    I saw that screen and was wondering why they had it in track mode. Shouldn’t do that on a straight race
