I use ABRP on all of my long road trips. I use the free version. Under the “Battery” setting there is a destination SOC setting.

The surface coated brakes are awesome. They are pricey, but much less expensive than the ceramics. There is no brake dust to speak of and the white calipers look great.

My Mamba Green gets positive comments almost every day since I got it in 2020. The comments are from all demographics, including a woman in her 80s who rolled down her passenger side window at a traffic light with a big thumbs up. Yesterday, I was dropping off my son at golf lessons, and one of...

I have a 2020 4S (the first one delivered in the US on this forum). I used EA DC fast charging quite a bit when the car was new because I didn't have the NEMA 14-50 outlet at my house. I then got the outlet installed and went through a period of time when I charged mostly at home to 85% every...

I am not sure if there was a change in the layout of the fuses for 2021. If you look on your car's fuse diagram, select the fuse for the interior dimming mirror. It switches on and off with the car, so the radar detector will power down when the car is turned off.

I have both of my garage doors programmed. When I approach my driveway, I get a pop up that says Garage 1 and Garage 2. You need to hold down the button on the popup until you see the transmission antenna signal go in motion.

Last week I completed another 1000 mile trip in my Taycan driving from Connecticut to Georgia. This is the 7th time I have done the trip since I got the car in April 2020. To date, I have never been stranded at any of the Electrify America chargers. What I have noticed during the past 2 plus...

Here are recent pictures of the steering wheel stripe as well as a Mamba Green bezel cover and Sport Chrono dial cover that were 3D printed and painted by Tom at carpokes.com.

Thanks for checking in. The stripe is just as nice as when I installed it. The small drop of super glue underneath the end of the vinyl when I installed it has kept everything in place. The color has held up too.

My blades have been on for over two years, with the last 8 months totally outdoors. No issues with squeaking or chattering. The blades work so well that the Porsche service tech did not replace them at the 2 year service visit. Fyi, with my other Porsches whenever I had a problem with the wiper...

Same here. It is the best overall car I have owned. The handling for such a heavy car still amazes me. I have owned it since April 2020 and still get compliments almost every day. The Electrify America network is so much better than in the early days. It is nice to see the variety of EVs at the...

Here is a copy of my post on carpokes.com . . . For many 1st time electric vehicle owners, it is a bit unclear what does a service visit cover and what does it cost. The biggest difference between a Porsche EV and a Porsche ICE car is the service interval. The Taycan is serviced every 2 years...

The cargo net is one for a BMW M5. Here is the old thread regarding the cargo net. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/trunk-cargo-net.2447/

Still available if you are in the metro Atlanta area.

Unless the software has been updated, in the past just selecting the EA Station as an address did not precondition the battery. What I still do to precondition is select Point of Interest on the Nav menu > select Porsche Charging Service > select the EA station > start the route. If you have...

Another big shout out to @Tom M at carpokes.com He sent me a painted Mamba Green dial mode cover to test fit on the Taycan. It is one of the pieces that he 3D prints and custom paints for the 911 and was curious to see if it fit the Taycan too. It fits. Just like the painted SC bezel cover, it...

Nano ceramic is not cheap. If I recall for everything sides, rear and windshield it cost about $650. If you live in a hot climate, you need it or something like the sunshade to reflect the heat. Up north the tint installers do not carry the nano ceramic because the heat is not as much of an issue.

The tint on your Taycan looks great. Unfortunately, in Georgia, the 20% (windows) and 50% (windshield) are too dark to avoid a ticket. It is important to keep in mind that the darkness of the tint will not help as much as the ability of the film to reject infrared (heat). There are a number of...

I have a brand new Taycan Sunshade that I purchased from Suncoast Parts but never used. It is an OEM Porsche part that is still in the box. I wound up installing nano ceramic tint to all of the windows in my Taycan to help with the IR heat, including the windshield so I did not need the...

I hit 260kW in the winter in Connecticut (December 2021) see post 9 in the link below. I have hit above 250kW several times at different EA chargers along the I-95 corridor on the east coast from the Carolinas to Connecticut. Much of it depends on the SOC of the car (less than 10%), and the...
