I've noticed for the past couple of updates that my music is pausing, sometimes several times, during a song. It's just a very short pause (500ms?) but it's very annoying. At first I thought it may be something with Spotify or a network connection problem, but it's been happening for several...

I really love my Tesla and would never go back to an ICE vehicle. However, it's feeling like Tesla is not moving forward like they did before and there are a lot of competitors that have really caught my eye. I was really excited for the Cybertruck and I love the technical innovations but the...

My MX started displaying a "Replace low voltage battery" warning the other day. Everything seems fine so far and I have an appointment next week to get it fixed, however i was wondering if I should have a Ranger replace it sooner. There seem to be conflicting stories on the Internets about...

I got new tires yesterday (Michelin CrossClimate 2) and I really like them. Well, I've only driven 10 miles on them but so far they are great. The downside is that I noticed a small crack in my windshield on the drive home. The crack wasn't there before the store put on the new tires. I...

You know how all the Tesla YouTubers have the latest and greatest vehicles and are always posting the results of the latest software updates? Well, there should be a YouTube channel for those of us with legacy vehicles complaining about shit that doesn't work right in our cars. Just post a new...

This is a very good look into the thinking at Ford. If any legacy American car company has a chance at challenging Tesla I think it might be Ford. https://www.thestreet.com/electric-vehicles/ford-ceo-admits-to-a-dirty-secret-that-can-benefit-automaker

Has anyone noticed that failing / failed LED street lights are showing up as green traffic lights in the binnacle? I'm not sure if this a recent thing or not because the LED street lights near just started failing. As you might know, some LED lights have a phosphor coating that causes blue LED...

I'm seeing all these EV announcements from other auto makers and I can't believe how many things they are getting wrong. It's like CEO's have never even driven a Tesla before! We've been a Honda family for a long time and have been very satisfied. In fact, my wife has a 2008 Accord that is...

I'm not sure if this is a problem with MX cars or just AWD Tesla's in general, but my back wheels seem to be out of sync with the front wheels. It's super hard to explain, but during low speed maneuvers (stop signs, parking, stop and go traffic, etc.) the back wheels seem to "settle" when...

Ford EV Customers To Gain Access to 12,000 Tesla Superchargers; Company to Add North American Charging Standard Port in Future EVs It looks like Ford is the first traditional car manufacturer to adopt the NACS. I see this as a big win for both Ford and Tesla. Tesla can now get some of the...

I just took ownership of a 2020 MY that I love, but the auto-wipers behavior is maddening. In my 2020 MY the auto-wipers were great. I basically kept them on all the time and never even though about the windshield wipers; they basically did what I expected them to. So, when I got my MX and...

Watching MKBHD talk about the Rivian R1S this morning I noticed that he mentioned that Rivian is really coming along; building trucks, building SUVs, and building out their charging network. At that moment I wished that Rivian had partnered with Tesla to use the NACS (re: Tesla connector). It...
