Wow, thanks for your report.
I am sorry growth of DCFC other than Tesla is still painfully slow.
I have friends who own Bolts who have never ventured out of town,
no farther than their garage charge can take them and still get home.
They just are unwilling to trust existing public...
I just received and installed my new Fastrak sticker passive transponder, which upgrades my OC Tollroads account to full Fastrak, so I
am good to go for any toll road or bridge in the state. No monthly fee.
I will be at breakfast tomorrow.
I will be at Golden Coral tomorrow, the 13th with my 2-week old Blue 2018 100D M-S. Lots of little differences from
my 2013, most of them good. Amazing discounts from the Dec 2018 prices. I paid to enable Full Self Driving so that I will be in the queue for the free retrofit to get the new...
I saw "Apollo 11" at the theater last night. It is an amazing feel good experience based upon a trove of newly discovered 70mm footage never seen before, together with a very well edited and synchronized soundtrack. No 70mm on the Moon of course, but high quality stills and film footage that...
I will be at Golden Corral tomorrow Jan 5.

To Gary and Gene: I had previously reported that my Cat6 cable in my new sealed wall could not pass signal although it passed continuity tests on all 8 pins. After replacing connectors on both ends, I...
I welcome the efforts of folks on this thread.
Along 395 I believe there still is no public J-1772 Between Hesperia on the South and Garnerville on the North. My first EV drive up 395 4 years ago, before Tesla Superchargers at Inyokern, Mammoth Lakes, Topaz Lake, or Reno, utilized the very...

Even with all the latest SC construction, lack of Supercharger in immediate SB area complicated trip. Gap between Oxnard and Buelton.

More on Tesla Auto Pilot 2 (AP2) based on Elon's 2nQ Earnings call a few days ago, using tips from last Saturday's breakfast:
AP2 V9 SW coming "soon" a few weeks, will be big advance, but SW only.
