    My first Tesla! 2025 Model 3 RWD

    Out with the Honda Prologue and in with a Tesla Model 3. It's a VERY different experience but not in a bad way. After my test drive last week I thought about it and decided this was the way I wanted to go. I thought about it for a week before making the leap and ordering it. What a great...

    30 Minute Review: 2025 Model 3 RWD "Long Range"

    I was bored today and wanted to try FSD for a bit so I did a demo drive of a base model Tesla Model 3 (currently that's the "Long Range Rear Wheel Drive" configuration). Full Self Driving was truly INCREDIBLE. My last experience with this tech was like 5-6 years ago in a rented Model 3...

    Drove both the Cybertruck and the Sierra EV... There is a clear winner!

    I drove a new Sierra EV Denali Max Range and a 2024 Cybertruck AWD with 9K miles on it back to back, and holy cow, Tesla is just miles ahead of GM when it comes to driving the vehicle and value per dollar. The Sierra EV has a bigger battery so if you're towing, it's the one to get, but...

    Lease price increase partway through?

    I just noticed that my lease payment on my Prologue went up by approximately $5/month last month. Does anyone know why this happened? I am considering calling Honda finance customer service but before I do that, if this is a normal thing, I don't want to waste my time. This is my first lease...

    Afeela 1 - I afeela like this thing is dead in the water already

    I'm not a TFL fan but they have one of the few decent videos on it so far: I went in person to the Corte Madera showroom as I was in the area and it was an extra two minute drive to check it out. I didn't bother scheduling a demo, as it seems from the video it was just "check out the mood...

    Blazer EV SS - Nice!

    The Blazer EV has been out for a bit but the SS is here, and I love it! 0-60 in 3.4 :) I'd probably be willing to give up CarPlay (which I picked the Prologue over the Blazer EV in the first place) to have such a spicy vehicle. The Equinox EV we picked up last week doesn't have CarPlay and...

    Affordable vehicles unavailable but dealership lots are full!

    I've done a lot of car shopping recently for people I know and what I've noticed across all brands and dealerships you visit, drive by, or check inventory on their website... they ALL have TONS of vehicles in stock, but they're all EXPENSIVE. I'm not even discussing the price of vehicles as a...

    Vinfast, what on earth are you doing - VF8 and VF9 test drive and failed attempt to lease a VF8

    My ex was looking for an EV SUV and as I have a friend that works at Vinfast we could have got employee pricing on a lease. Which would have meant a VF8 was INSANELY cheap. But, overall, this whole thing was a disaster and I don't understand what they are doing. I get they sell a ton of these...

    Welcome to the family, 2025 Chevy Equinox EV RS FWD

    For a while me and my ex were sharing my Honda Prologue while each having our own vehicles as well (I had a Chevy Bolt, he had a Nissan Kicks). Well, recently I wanted to simplify things so I sold my Bolt and went full time with the Prologue. Apparently going back to an ICE car with a CVT was...

    Cybertruck RWD is out

    I was really excited for this (not like I can afford one anyway I just wanted to see a more affordable one) but now that it’s out I’m not so sure. RWD is $70K and AWD is $80K. RWD does 0-60 in 6.2. On the surface, that’s fine. Sure it’s not as quick as other versions but it’s still about the...

    2015 Subaru 2.0 Head Gasket Failure at 136K Miles

    Absolutely ridiculous. My aunt has a 2015 Impreza 2.0. Hatchback manual. She bought it brand new and had every recommended service performed at the dealer since day one. Yesterday she calls me to let me know the car had been sounding a little noisier and rougher for the past week so she took it...

    Nema 6-20P for EV Charging?

    Hi, currently at home we charge with level 1 through a regular wall outlet. I would like to improve the charging situation at home, now that I'm selling the Bolt and the Prologue will be my only vehicle. When I had the Bolt and Prologue I could charge one and drive the other LOL. Our home is...

    2025 Honda Prologue - Upgraded Specs, Same Price

    Looks like between an updated front drive unit and software changes, both the FWD and AWD versions have improved horsepower, torque, and range, while keeping the price the same. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63981350/2025-honda-prologue-range-power-increase/ Other Ultium EVs have kinda...

    Anyone else play Microsoft Flight Simulator?

    I really know very little about airplanes and flying but I spent a few hundred bucks on some controls and I find it really fun. Aviation and airplanes have always fascinated me and being a pilot is a dream of mine. Sadly for a few reasons not something I could ever actually do. Previously I was...

    How far do you push your range?

    For Christmas we drove to my mom's for Christmas Eve, my aunt's for Christmas morning, then to my partners family for Christmas dinner. We did have to stop at an Electrify America station in between. Me being impatient I got just enough juice to get us through the day. Note on that... if you...

    Why do legacy manufacturers not implement handy/fun features?

    I mentioned this in another thread, but why don't legacy manufacturers have even 10% of the handy/fun features Tesla has? It's my belief that anyone and everyone should have a dashcam, at least for the front. Sentry mode and Teslacam are so brilliant. Adding a USB port or SD card slot in the...

    Ceramic Coating Windshield Fail

    I read so many reports of people using spray ceramics to achieve something similar to Rain-X without the sort of lousy layer Rain-X puts on there which causes glare from oncoming headlights at night. Well, I tried it using Griot's Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax and it did exactly the same thing... sure...

    2021 Nissan Kicks Rear Brake Noise

    My partner drives a 2021 Nissan Kicks he bought new. Since shortly after he got the car, the rear brakes make a whale noise, typically when cold/first starting the vehicle and going in reverse. The car has about 46K miles on it now but apparently the issue has been happening for a long time. He...

    Acclimating to colder weather?

    We've all seen people wearing shorts and t-shirt when it's snowing outside. We don't have snow in our area but I'm wondering if I can become one of those people in spirit. Ultimately the goal is to avoid running the heater all the time in my room because due to not wanting our cats in my room I...

    Heater temperature?

    The other morning it got chilly and I used the heater in the Prologue for the first time since we got the car new. After a 10 minute drive, it didn’t seem particularly hot. Maybe slightly warmer than ambient but even at around 3/4 fan speed and the temperature all the way up to HI it wasn’t...
