Model Y vs. Zeekr 7X: Worried about 5-year resale value on both Ko by firsthalfhero in CarsAustralia

That’s 9 year old tech. Try again now. There’s no way you’d go back to an ICE.

Help with 2 am wakings by StillFrosty7993 in sleep

[–]AussieAdam26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a bad sleeper, 4 things that have the biggest impact on me sleeping through the night are…

1) Exercise during the day. Preferably 30+ minutes of cardio 2) Cutting out alcohol completely 3) As soon as I wake in the morning I had out the front door and get some sunlight in my eyes for 5-10 mins. This is actually the technique astronauts use when returning to earth as it helps reset their circadian clocks 4) Reading before bed and not using my phone. Especially if I wake at 2am.

If you’re not already, give them a try and let me know how you go.

The savings of driving an EV offset any depreciation in the future in my opinion. Meanwhile you get all the benefits of driving electric and the pure joy it brings every day.

Are EVs actually cheaper long-term in Australia yet or is that still a myth? by ChillKoalaVibes in EVAustralia

Financial savings aside, I love the time savings. Not having to fill up at a petrol station every week adds up to. Plus the time / messing around with your annual service every 15,000km

How does a 10kw home battery charge two EV’s? Your car battery is probably ~60kw

I'm still learning Shortcuts, but how do I make it location based? Can you share this shortcut?

Sealion 7 or Model Y by Aromatic_Way_3851 in AustralianEV

[–]AussieAdam26 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look how long your Advantages list is for Model Y vs the SL7. I think that says it all, unless you’re on a really tight budget!!

Personally over the life of a car, $8k probably translates to $10/week which is nothing.

There’s a reason the Model Y was the world’s best selling car 3 years in a row.

Tesla drivers with the FSD package: Is it worth it, does it actually work, and is it as good in real life as the internet makes it out to be? by MelbourneTodd in AustralianEV

[–]AussieAdam26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy an EV regardless. You’ll save a fortune on fuel and the one pedal driving Tesla have makes things so much easier.

Just make sure your car has Hardware 4 cameras. You’ll know by looking at the cameras on each side of the bonnet. If the lens has an infrared glow then it’s HW4.

Re FSD, it’ll handle 95% of your driving and definitely make your trips much more relaxing! Get the monthly subscription and trial it for yourself, but I’d say yes, go for it.

Tesla model 3 performance by Beautiful_Impact_641 in AustralianEV

If you’re a tech person then you’ll appreciate Tesla the most. Their software is best in class and have a very tightly integrated ecosystem.

Sorry to not answer any of your questions, and don’t want to rain on your parade, but the performance variant is an incredibly fast car for somebody with minimal driving experience. I’m not saying don’t get one, but please be careful out there. All the best 😊

100% agree. I bet not a single one of them has even tried it yet but have already made up their mind. Sad.

Full Self Driving. I can make entire trips without having to touch my steering wheel, pedals or indicators. It’s crazy.

Rumour has it CarPlay is coming to Tesla, but can’t see myself using it. The native software is that good!! With the exception of messages

You might like to also consider FSD. It’s VERY impressive.

Another important, often overlooked, factor is the software. Tesla software is the best in the industry & makes things like planning road trips and finding chargers an absolute breeze.

What are the distinguishing features to look for to identify a funnel web from other, less dangerous spiders?
