    Tesla Prepares To Turn Heated Front Seats and Wipers Into Paid Features

    They must be different from the toll devices I am used to. what controls do you need? The ones we have in Ontario just sit there and beeps when you get off the toll road.

    Jailbreak Tesla

    Isn't it? the part that requires Tesla (or more likely in the heated seat example, BMW's ) cooperation is the enablement of the seat heaters in software so you can turn them on via the main controls. I have not examined a software locked heated seat, but I can't think of a way it could be...

    Ford/GM/Superchargers... the ELEPHANT in the room......

    Like this... except instead of only 2 pumps per line, 4-8 per line in larger stations. because people will be at the charger longer than at a gas pump. This is the main reason to have that aisle down the middle, so no one ends up stuck behind someone, and it is easy to move away from a charger...

    Ford/GM/Superchargers... the ELEPHANT in the room......

    The spots are the same as most other parking lots around here, (Costco excluded) but I agree, not because GM or Ford drivers are worse at backing in, heck, most pickup drivers back in BECAUSE normal spaces are too narrow to park nose in with a pickup. The reality is we will have larger vehicles...

    Autonomous bus in Ontario Canada runs into tree Bus attendant in hospital (non-Tesla)

    Update: The bus was being driven manually, the driver/attendant is now out of the hospital but still recovering, and police are still looking for witnesses. https://durhampost.ca/waves-autonomous-mode-was-disabled-at-time-of-crash

    Autonomous bus in Ontario Canada runs into tree Bus attendant in hospital (non-Tesla)

    The investigation is still ongoing, but given the state of the bus after the crash I would guess one of 2 things probably happened. a) the attendant had a medical event (heart attack or something) and fell on his controls sending the bus off course at full speed or b) the bus was rear-ended...

    Autonomous bus in Ontario Canada runs into tree Bus attendant in hospital (non-Tesla)

    Obviously this has nothing to do with Tesla and their FSD, but expect to hear about this as FSD is the first thing people think of when talk turns to autonomous vehicles...

    LK Machinery 9000 Ton press - Which Acquired IDRA in 2008

    That's what I was thinking too. Tesla buys Gigapresses from Idra. https://www.idragroup.com/ I am pretty sure LK Machinery https://www.lk.world/ is a different company

    Tesla's AI Day Event Did A Great Job Convincing Me They're Wasting Everybody's Time

    This here hits the nail squarely on the head. If SpaceX is going to try to set up a permanent base on Mars, (or NASA on the Moon, or ...) they will benefit greatly from robots that can navigate in that environment without GPS and HD mapping being set up first. There will be a lot of building to...

    I almost got excited.........

    I am not planning on owning a Lucid, but I find that news exciting. I will be glad to see any new EV placed in the hands of an owner. Especially from the smaller startup companies. The more the merrier.

    Chart: Which countries have the most electric cars?

    Iceland is a little bit of a surprise to me. When I visited a few years ago they had amazing infrastructure with L3 chargers well spaced out along the main highways in places that were easy to find and very visible, and parking garages offering outlets for L2 if no pernmanent L2 was installed...

    Study reveals EV secret: They are driven less than gas cars

    I can think of several reasons that I'm not surprised by this result. - many 2 car families have replaced the less used commuter car with a shorter range EV - many people for whom the shorter range EVs fit their lifestyle it was BECAUSE they drive fewer miles in a year than the people who...

    Tesla connectors coming to over 600 EVgo electric vehicle charging station

    The more the merrier. If we don't get a North American standard plug (be that CCS 1 or Tesla) I do hope charging networks start running both plugs (the same as how most non-Tesla ..at least around me... have Chademo and CCS) Chademo we all know is a dying standard, so if newer chargers...
