And, to confirm, have you had an Electrician come in to install an outlet for the Tesla charging connection, or did you already have that?
Got a tip for us?

Agreed. If they want to get more people to buy them, they need to drop in price by a lot. The more you mass produce the cheaper they are supposed to get. Carvana is about 200 miles from me, but wanted to see what they would offer since I can get a quote from them without having a sales guy bother me. Was just calculating numbers for a Tesla Y.
There's also the impact on the power grid... if everyone in my neighborhood were to replace their fossil fuel vehicles with EVs, the power company could not supply the demand to charge them all... not as they currently are set up... it would require them to invest additional infrastructure to be able to supply sufficient power to the homes in our neighborhood...

New lid for my new Nissan Navara St-X
Lame that the car stickered at 69,999 and now is past 100.
I know, inflation, but to increase 30%+ in one year is lunacy.
It also is lacking a lot of the beautiful amenities in other luxury brands and the build quality is still way behind other manufacturers. I have owned 3 Teslas including an S and they revolutionize driving but can't see going back to one until they get their quality and pricing under control.
You will absolutely love it though and congrats on the beauty. Though trading in a 392 is a bit of lunacy for it in my personally, super biased opinion

There’s an absolute learning curve. Because this is ‘half’ a steering wheel, you can no longer roll the wheel with your hand anymore. Especially when in reverse where you normally would rest your hand at the top of the wheel to maneuver, you can’t do that anymore.
Actually what I’m going to do, is set up a driving course in a parking lot, borrow some construction cones, and just learn to adjust to the steering wheel at slower and higher speeds. Seems like it might be a fun little project, but also puts the driver in a safer position to operate such a dramatic change from the traditional steering wheel.
That will eventually happen, but not installed yet. The total cost is about ~$1000 to run a 240V line for the Tesla wall mount. Plus, I have to shift some other cars around in the spare garage to make a clean path for the line.
No worries. I have a 700+ hp Camaro SS and a 650hp Cobra to play around with anytime I want a V8 fix (See ‘Car Thread’ for those pictures). The 392 Scat, although a great car, doesn’t touch those cars, where compared to a Camaro and Cobra, are one off custom designs that will actually accrue value.

I’ve owned three Mustangs, the black 5.0 I sold a while back, and the Supercharged Cobra is the most current:Hang on, no Mustang in the stable? The bloody cheek of it

Not sure that it was worth the extra $. Performance is about equivalent to my ASUS RT-AX88U. It does support 6E so I'm ready for when Apple supports it. Had a terrible time configuring it. Took hours on the phone and 2 months with Netgear Support (which was excellent) to get it working.
13 pro max. Had to get the green.
I like the green, but I keep thinking the 14 isn’t that far away.

Same, I’m on the “even” number upgrade year so the 12 was my last upgrade and my next will be 14 but it’s so frustrating because the green colors (Midnight and Alpine) have only come in the odd years. Had alpine been available from launch I may have done a year over year upgrade, but this late in the cycle isn’t ideal. Gorgeous color though, perhaps my favorite of any iPhone model they’ve released.
Curious, with so many owners using a case on their iPhone, does the colour of the phone really matter? @UMHurricanes34
At least you won. We lost to bloody Southampton! Seems to me that top 4 is slipping away.
Alas, I digress...
I get by on 2-3 these days. Any more and I’m a mess. Not just for the evening either! Getting old is no fun. But I’ve heard it’s better than the alternative!
