    Extended OCI for low mileage vehicles

    We have 4 vehicles (look like hoarders) and daughter drives the oldest vehicle. I have been caged inside my home for over 4 years now well before Covid and put maybe 5000 miles/year and have used high grade synthetics all along. Been on a 1y/10K OCI for MB and Lexus and at around 150K moved to...

    Has TESLA stock price finished dropping, or how low will it go?

    The stock will be volatile but not the extent of going from being a 60B company in 2017 to a 1T company in 2021. The volatility was also a function of the shorts and the short position has dramatically come down to 2-3% of the outstanding stock. But anything is possible and IMO long term...

    Set Tire pressure to Manual/Sticker Recommended or 2 PSI over?

    Tire pressure is an important variable for the MPG one gets off their vehicle.. Most have them at 30PSI which can drive down MPG - usually keep it at 38 in winters and 35 in summers. Essentially keep all the tires every other month at 38PSI winter or summer w/ expansion

    Has TESLA stock price finished dropping, or how low will it go?

    Agreed. Twitter fiasco at the expense of Tesla shareholders- the creating volatility for the run down since March when he took a dammmn survey for how much to offload. This guy is off the charts everyone knew he was heading into a swamp but didn't know his theatrics would tick off people and...

    Has TESLA stock price finished dropping, or how low will it go?

    How telling this line is - we are all wrapped up in emotions because there is some smart basstard who goes into low and comes out high. Most individual investors are hung up in this emotional drama - I know of no one who made his millions in the market. If that path was there that path was...

    Has TESLA stock price finished dropping, or how low will it go?

    Ok. What are they seeing now that wasn't seen in the start of the year. The production numbers are good - there are recalls which each company goes through, then there is sad news off the plant in Shangai but for that what happened for shareholders to get punished. Why was there a run up and...

    Has TESLA stock price finished dropping, or how low will it go?

    Elon got handsomely paid by a rigged board over the years - it went all the way to 1T and now rock bottom (all throughout he met the goals set by the board) shouldn't we take back the options handed over on a silver plate. Something isn't adding up guys...the markets are rigged.

    Tesla ModelY head lights AMAZES me

    What worries me about regen is does the brake lights light up. It would be scary to be behind a Tesla when the driver just has to take his leg of the accelerator and cut off all power to the motors and naturally the weight of the car will dramatically cut down speed. Does anyone know or can...

    Tesla ModelY head lights AMAZES me

    We test drove a X back in 2016 and it was over 100K and my jaw dropped. Told my wife I am scared off all the sensors and not ready for the EV and repairability was a nightmare (since I wouldn't sign off on an EV she started hoarding Tesla shares on her brokerage account and can call herself the...

    Tesla ModelY head lights AMAZES me

    Well if you pay for luxury in a MB the very least you expect is resolve the misery of lights. The reason we have a Tesla is because the big boys were drooling in their glory days of building cars intent to be unsafe.

    Tesla ModelY head lights AMAZES me

    We don’t have dealerships here in TX - it was delivered to a pick up location and everything was enabled on the phone. We got title and registration paperwork in two weeks and now to get it registered. The car feels like a Apple product done right.

    Buying An Oil Extractor Pump

    The MityVac is a great product and a must have which. makes oil changes quite easy. One mistake I did was buying them during Covid and never had to change the oil using it in over a year - it stayed in the garage. When I had to use it it didn't work and past warranty and had to replace the...

    Tesla SEMI 1st delivery...

    I think the starting torque and load on the pin a concern - this is the least of the worries for a great engineering company. His claim to never have to replace brakes is a tall claim but it is possible with common sense use of regen braking, The bigger concern should be cost of replacing those...

    Tesla ModelY head lights AMAZES me

    We just bought a new Tesla Model Y and although the vehicle is great it takes time to get a hang of the braking system. There is definitely a learning curve and have driven it only once (my wife's car) but I must say they got the headlight misery solved. Perfect view of the curbs and with auto...

    Lexus ES350 endlinks

    The ES, GS, LS are heavy cars and if yiou go under there is a frame like strong build which translates to less wear and tear and long term reliability of an already reliable Toyota offshoots. But the links are another animal in inself they do wear before anything and replacing them is a breeze...

    KYB quick struts sold out again! Front strut mounts might be shot

    KYBs are the biggest joke under sun and especially if you buy them from Tirerack. Pay the extra dollars and get OEM - man this is a job no fun going elcheapo

    OK gentlemen $15 links is a no brainer for me - they will last for 3 months. I will go with OEMs

    Lexus ES350 endlinks

    I doubt its the sway bar bushings - when I removed them on another vehicle with over 150K they were solid and was a waste of replacement. The links are another animal in itself they take on load and never have lasted beyond 80K. Unless one doesn't actually feel a ride difference (like my wife...
