He will be missed, although I wasn't a big fan until he realised that EVs were
A, very important
B, very good to drive
Quite a shock to hear he's gone

Not available over here in Europe yet. Still on v4 50-1

Sounds like a useful change tho, hope we get it at some point ?

Well that's about as bullish as you can get !!

I know that the Tesla board and Tesla investors are all keen on Tesla but that resumΓ© makes it all look very inticing right !

I have to add my usual comment :

I still haven't seen a single e-hgv over here in France !! I come from a trucking family and simply can't wait to see these monsters changing the world !

Danish authorities in rush to close security loophole in Chinese electric buses Investigation launched after discovery that Chinese supplier had remote access to vehicles’ control systems

So another situation with internet connected vehicles. This is directed again at China but pretty sure this applies to all new cars as well.

Is the USA (incl Tesla) not viewed as a county "that has values and ideals so different to" us ?

Not a big Mercedes fan by any stretch and don't see the point of putting one on a dune to drift in the sand but I am a big EV fan and I agree 100% that the future of driving is huge and only just starting in this new era.

If we can save the planet, bring on the future !!

Another week, another update that has very very little for my legacy S !

I know it's getting old now (7 years) but we've been spoiled previously I guess ?

I can see a future where @Reform eat themselves trying to get a policy into reality and the @Greens put forward such a convincing case for the future that they actually replace Reform and the @Cons

As you can see nobody is falling for this stuff anymore !

Even Musk has to actually deliver something sometime. That last "cheap"entry model disaster just shows how out of ideas Tesla are.

I love my Model S to bits, but it will likely be the only Tesla I ever buy

My desire to park at a petrol pump then go to the shop is high ! But my fear of these petrol guzzlers damaging my car is higher

But they need something like that to show what blocking chargers means !

As 90% of us know, we really have to wait to fill up our EV. It's either while we sleep or while we have a coffee. Had to interrupt walking the dog on several road trip fast charges!

Five minutes to fill with dinosaur juice? I've seen plenty of people queuing for ages to be parted from their money!

It is amazing how diffΓ©rent the world is with this kind of news.

I drive around my part of rural France in a minority of me + less then a handful of other EVs.

We've driven tens of thousands of kms and 4 countries on electric but 99% of people here say it has to be petrol & diesel !!

Understood. I bought mine before he was an openly fascist dickhead. And before buying a car after knowing the CEO was a thing

You need a Tesla mate !! I can change charging current from the app and it's immediately updated. Even mid charge !!

Oops

Yep that's the guy. Quality material.

You forgot the peaceful blowing up of boats in the ocean that "Mr Peace" has worked out were carrying drugs. Without looking.

I'm Tesla and I'm here not there !!
Intersection is getting better and better recently here.

It's a heavy burden driving a Tesla these days but being here and disinstalling X has helped a lot

(btw does anyone else nod, wave etc to other Teslas they pass ?)

Still yet to see a single one here in France. Found a charger south of Dijon a while ago, but obviously ICEd.

Not been on X for ages now but have heard it's getting worse and worse. But MSM have been using it as "no effort" news gathering for years now.

Laziness breeds ignorance

@notateslaapp.com I got an alert last night 2025.38.6 being available for my '17 S Also in the app & this morning also in the car.

When I connected to WiFi tho, all the alerts disappeared and I'm still in 2025.32.6

Account else has this happen? I know less and less features are legacy S compatible

Agreed. I have had the pleasure of owning 4 EVs here in Europe and have taken 3 of them from deepest France to Switzerland, Germany, the UK (6 times)

People who say they don't work, or the chargers are not good enough are the irons who having driven them

I'm pretty sure this is happening because the Dems turned the taps on in the Pacific for growing pizzas or something right !!

The fact we are still talking about talking about this depresses me so much. They are saying Ice/ EV hybrid is the solution when all studies keep showing they make everything worse

The planet is screaming and we are sleep walking into so much trouble.

That's pretty depressing right

Worse when you remember the EU is still buying Russian gas !! Used to buy weapons to throw at Ukraine

I'm a proud European but it is testing my faith in soo Mathy ways these last 5 years !!

We're stuck. Stuck fast in the mud of the 2000s

Add that to the crazy pollution from air travel, bus tours etc etc. It is one of the things that has to stop if we're ever going to save the planet from the #climateemergency

24.10.2025 08:04 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Also, never used it since the damage became obvious. This is just another reason not too but 99% of people either don't care or close their eyes to stuff like this cos it saves them some money !!

Pretty impressive that ! Also not fair at all !!

Getting to drive north south in New Zealand if what most people pay a fortune to do on Holiday !!

Europe is also running above 1.5 degrees too. I think the far North (Siberia, artic etc) is well above 2 degrees

And still they wring their hands and try to do nothing !!

STOP BURNING THINGS !!!
