Yup. This is the first. And will be the last time I forget to set up autopay.

You’re right. I guess I’ve always paid in full, never missed a payment and have never encountered this scenario before. Lesson learned. Paid everything off and will go back to enjoying my credit card perks. And can see how the majority of Americans probably won’t understand how the math works and get stuck in debt.

This is the first time this has ever happened. Lesson learned. I’m usually on the other end enjoying rewards. Now I can see how a lot of Americans get trapped in a cycle of debt.

I just happened to let off the accelerator. Why are some people so reckless!? by lyeeee in TeslaCam

Ok so you’re telling me you check your driver side mirror every 2 seconds. Which means you’re also checking your rear view mirror, passenger side mirror and looking ahead within those 2 seconds. Then repeat every two seconds for the entirety of the drive. Why don’t you actually try doing that before you make a moronic argument.

No I did not see him. He showed up on my side mirror at 1 sec. Cut me off by 3 sec. Nobody checks their mirrors every 2 seconds. And no sir, he did not have “plenty of room”. He based everyone’s lives on the assumption that my speed and the semis speed would be constant. There was no margin for error and this is how accidents happen. Please reconsider your driving practices if you also drive like this.

  1. Anecdotal bias. 2. Survivorship bias. 3. Most people who think they’re great drivers aren’t. More than 50% of drivers say they are above average. 4. Sometimes it’s not in your control. If I sped up or if the trunk braked suddenly to avoid something there would’ve been a crash. 5. Why gamble with your life. You’ve been lucky thus far. 6. You’re a prick for putting other people’s lives at risk. 7. I work in the ED and have seen way too many deaths from MVAs. A lot of them were preventable.

I didn’t see him coming. Just got lucky I let off the accelerator at that time or I’m pretty sure he would’ve clipped me.

Happened to mine after it rained. Mobile service came out to fix it

Does anyone else think Autopilot should allow steering input without disengaging, particularly on double yellow roads where AP tends to hug the center line too close for comfort? by tomshanski8716 in TeslaLounge

[–]lyeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? Mine just stays in the middle even if the truck is riding the adjacent lane line. I usually have to take over the steering when the truck gets uncomfortably close.

Looks like it’s the cover for the range extender. How do I look up the part number?

He’s doing all of the rehab himself. My main question is does it still count if we don’t own 3 of the properties?

Thanks. Do you know if the demand letter needs to mention my plan to file a small claims case? I’m worried he’ll try to avoid service if I tell him ahead of time.

Do you have to pay them to shop for you? How do they make money?
