    EV Tires -- Everything you need to know by Engineering Explained

    Kept them fairly close to the recommended specs for air. I tried putting them a bit over for a bit, but didn't really notice any difference.

    EV Tires -- Everything you need to know by Engineering Explained

    I just took my car in for new tires today. The 4S’s. I got a bit over 36k miles off them in two years. Rode them all year around, road trips and one trip to the track (limited speed was imposed there tho). I was extremely shocked they lasted as long as they did, but they held up very well...

    Negative Attention

    Outside of the non-EV crowd, nothing really. Even the non-EV crowd tend to just like the cool looking car and then get shocked to find out it’s electric but most are too impressed to start to insult at that point. I know the feeling of the attention in rough areas as most EA chargers in the US...

    Windshield replacement for 4S

    Never heard of this until now. Looks amazing and I may end up getting it. Thanks!

    Windshield replacement for 4S

    Had to have my windshield replaced due to rock chip creating a crack that spread across half the windshield. Wasn’t bad at all. Insurance covered the cost (minus the deductible) and went thru local Safelite. They had the OEM windshield in stock, we just had to verify they had the correct...

    Ring car cam

    Already pre-purchased! I like the way this works, especially with the auto download to cloud after you get home and on your Wi-Fi or if you have the service, to upload it to cloud on the go. I’ve wanted that feature for a long while. Also, you don’t have to purchase the subscription but $60 a...

    Randomly looking at plugshare when not road tripping

    I do it all the time too! Read reviews, plan routes we may possibly take and look for new chargers (which is real slow going in the south!).

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    I get and agree with all you are saying. Very good points. I personally tho think we should not arrive at a charger with no range left to hit a backup. I dont stop for gas when my tank is on E on a road trip, i stop at a 1/4 tank. I plan my road trips in my Taycan to give me range to hit another...

    EA (Electrify America) Sucks - that is all

    Kyle is a real smart guy, but sometimes, he really makes drama more where it’s just not justified. The EA stations aren’t working at his location, ok, it is what it is. Doesnt mean they cant go somewhere else or go home/hotel and charge if they had to.

    First (and maybe last) Freezing Weather Road Trip

    Thanks for the report. I’ve done that stretch many times, but not in weather this cold. Great info. I think for weather like this I’d stick to a gas vehicle for long road trips until the infrastructure is much more robust, especially in the south. That cold hitting the range really hard in the...

    EV Tires -- Everything you need to know by Engineering Explained

    I cant find anywhere to actually buy these tires. I’m due and am looking hard at these, even tho i have very much liked my Pilot Sport 4S tires.

    Charging Etiquette

    Yep, significantly. Lots more Teslas have bought the $300 adapter and charging at EA Stations.

    Charging Etiquette

    I can understand not wanting to bother to educate people, it’s not any of our responsibility to do so. I personally would rather try something than nothing. Complaining in here definitely wont get anything resolved out there. As for the price change, that is a really good idea that Tesla...

    Charging Etiquette

    The only thing necessary for ignorant people to win, is for smart people to do nothing! ? Educate them folks!

    Charging Etiquette

    What they (at least i believe they are) saying is that if you dont need to charge to 100%, dont do it. If you absolutely need all that range, then you do what you have to. it just takes an extraordinarily long time to get that last 5%-10% charge. 20-30 mins to get to 80-85% and it could take an...

    Charging Etiquette

    Unfortunately, you will see this, but for some good news, the updated EA stations are SUPPOSED to be moving towards all stations being 350kw and just letting the cars get whatever rate they can. We’ll see how that rolls out. In the mean time, all you can do is ask/inform the drivers at the 350...

    Announcement: Porsche’s new on-board and wall chargers nearly halve Taycan home charge times

    Just another slap in the face to North American owners…

    My Taycan Nightmare

    Yes, some of those are known issues but you definitely got a lemon. I would take that one in and lemon law it. That is unacceptable for any car. If mine did that, i would have long ago parted with it. You also have a really crappy dealer/service department. I would go to another shop from now...
