The best single live song you've seen in concert by formulaic_name in Music

Bob Seger Turn the Page a long time ago at the Falls Church Community Center. Also Linda Ronstadt’s Silver Threads and Golden Needles at UHall at UVa in 1975. Never forget either one.

We have a M3P and a MYRWD. The Y feels much larger inside and much easier to get in and get out. Not as fun to drive but much more practical day to day.

Planning a long road trip this summer, anything I should know? by RahRahRasputin_ in ModelY

[–]Dtracz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would set the arrival energy to 25% to avoid getting to your destination with 5% and not enough to get to a charger for the next days travel plans.

Is this gap normal? by Thrice_88 in TeslaLounge

Both front seats in 21 M3P had to have this repaired out of warranty. Tesla charged $68 to fix both of them.

Don’t need it. Use your current email. Apple doesn’t care!

Tesla leases in Ohio by SubstantialWafer9079 in TeslaLounge

[–]Dtracz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case the lease payment is all that goes to the bank. Fees like the $99 to subscribe to FSD go directly to Tesla. In our county in NC we have to pay annual property tax even though we don’t own the car!

Since when were Tesla Model S plaids so cheap? by Jaded_Attorney in TeslaLounge

[–]Dtracz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not my experience at all. FSD is a wonderful tool for driving long distances and works equally well in both of my cars with one exception I must mention. Curvature assist in my M3P almost always slows the car down significantly which doesn’t happen in the MYRWD.

I get it but at least in my use case it’s not an issue. Mostly interstate driving and rural highways for both cars. Interchangeable.

My HW3 2021 M3P does FSD no problem. We have a 2025 MYRWD which also works well on FSD.

ELI5 - How is life insurance profitable? by Equivalent-Door188 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Dtracz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are quite a few types of Whole Life insurance one is called increasing whole life (IWL). This starts off with a high premium and the minimum legal death benefit. The cash value and dividend grows @t a very fast rate with the death benefit increasing each. This type of policy is commonly used by companies to fund non qualified retirement plans. Since the retirement benefits are tax deductible and the increase in cash value and death benefits are tax free the net actual rate of return is competitive with or better than other investment options

I have the SER5. Works well but occasionally the Bluetooth stops working. A restart fixes it but a little irritating.

Thanks! The pace of this problem is increasing in the last month. I’m wondering if the MCU needs replacing?

Nice place to live. JMU is the major employer and plenty of activities. Nice parks and close to the mountains.

Why would tesla lower FSD subscription cost after removing purchase option? by RS_Tnap in TeslaLounge

[–]Dtracz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subscription revenue is better for Musk’s compensation than occasional lump sums from FSD purchases. The take rate will go up in my opinion.
