    Tell us your Tesla Supercharger experience

    Using anything other than the Tesla app to try to determine which Superchargers are open to your non-Tesla EV is a recipe for disappointment.

    Tell us your Tesla Supercharger experience

    There are two Supercharger sites near Cabazon - are you certain you weren't at the one that DOESN'T support NACS...

    Ioniq 5N - Test Drive vs my TT ST

    5N is a very cool car. Personally I’d really miss the memory driver’s seat, but I understand that the rest of the package and the pricing makes it very attractive. Good luck with your decision!

    Tesla begins offering “white label” Supercharger site installations

    Interesting offering…wonder how the cost compares with other suppliers? The “turn-key” approach and Tesla’s extensive experience in this area may help the venture be a success…. https://www.motortrend.com/news/tesla-will-offer-unbranded-superchargers-to-business-owners

    "[NA] Porsche owners can now access the Tesla Supercharger network" - Porsche Newsroom

    If you tell the Tesla app which “other EV” you’d like to charge, only stations compatible with that vehicle will be shown. The sign is immaterial.

    Audi Concept C EV revealed - thoughts?

    I like it, and I especially like it as a harbinger of Audi's future design direction. Audi design went from world-leading/innovative in the late 90s to truly forgettable, over-designed and derivative by the mid-2010s, which was a tragedy, IMHO. This looks like a great way for Audi to begin to...

    Costco - Now providing 350kw DC Charging Stations

    Just to clarify: Has it been confirmed that Costco Membership DOESN’T unlock different pricing at Costco EA locations?

    VW Group EVs to Get Tesla Supercharger Access September 9, 2025

    But wouldn’t his choice of vehicle make that statement a non-sequitur at best?? 😉

    VW Group EVs to Get Tesla Supercharger Access September 9, 2025

    Sounds like a rookie mistake, but AFAIK, Tesla’s NAV can’t filter for “stations where my vehicle fits”…

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche _IS_ in trouble… [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTING / POLITICALLY CHARGED POSTING]

    Ford’s CEO Jim Farley has been daily driving a Xiaomi SU7 and said the progress of China's EV industry was "the most humbling thing I've ever seen". It’s gonna be a bloodbath in the non-Chinese auto industry unless the regulatory organizations get the balance of trade controls just right…

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    Nothing is broken on my Tesla, so why would anything need splitting?

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    Attempting to deny the Model S’ impact on the EV market is exactly as obtuse as Porsche’s refusal to offer its customers a choice that every other EV maker offers, so 👍🏻🙄

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    LOL - the Taycan (and the current EV market as a whole) would. not. exist. if not for Tesla’s success with the Model S. And I’ve owned multiple manual-transmissioned cars and several motorcycles, so again, please stop preaching…

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    1: Porsche is alone in its approach to handling regen - the other approach isn’t a “Tesla thing”, it’s a “virtually every other EV on the market thing”. 2: Our other EVs will slow the car substantially without using the brake pedal, making daily driving simpler and less fatiguing. 3: My...

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    No offense, but that’s an extremely myopic take on the whole concept of regen adjustment. Have you ever owned any EV other than the Taycan?

    Wagon Goes Wild: 2025 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo Instrument Tested Results (Car and Driver)

    Actually, virtually EVERY EV other than the Taycan offers adjustable regen, so it’s more likely that C&D is commenting on that reality and their frustration with Porsche’s intransigence on this specific issue…

    EA opens 20-charger station in Santa Monica, CA

    Progress, but it’s almost unconscionable that it took this long for EA to react to the overcrowding at so many of their stations. I’ll never understand how anyone ever thought that a 4-plug DCFC station made any sense at all! When was the last time you saw a new 4-hose gas station...

    Model S Plaid to Taycan

    Quoting from Motor Trend magazine's initial test of the Plaid: "Even more impressive and true to Tesla's word, the Plaid is capable of posting those (acceleration) times consistently, never varying by more than a fraction of a second....We've never tested a car so robotic in its consistency."...

    Part 3: The Quest for the Perfect Tune

    Tesla CHOSE not to do blended braking. It’s also interesting that nearly every Porsche EV review mentions that OPD should at least be an option. Anyway, we all like what we like, but it’s a fact that the vast majority of EV owners (Porsche EV owners not included, but there are comparatively...
