Agreed at that point. If it was an OLD one then sure. My parents house was a great use case. The cost for them from one change was about $50 a month. They do a good bit of laundry as my mother is one that washes 2 towels per load...

trunk kick sensors can be triggered by brushes, wipers can get ripped off as well. the collision avoidance can hit brakes and cause the vehicle to jump the roller track.
No clue how teslas legal team’s defense will hold water against a lawsuit over a simple car wash causing damage. They can deny anything they wish with how they have things worded. However real world has water. That water gets things wet. If this issue gets to be more prevalent, the NHTSA can force their hand and force…
I’ll take an old grand national turbo please.
It’s not “get wet.” It’s for the roll through car washes. The cars with parking sensors tied to collision avoidance systems will brake as they read you are moving forward, even in neutral, so you don’t collide with the wall of water or brushes as the car gets rolled forward.
For my Audi, its a simple button press to…
Parking sensors that are tied to collision avoidance will lock up the brakes and push a car off the push rollers for the drive through style ones.
Automated wipers will kick on in an automated wash and get ripped off by brushes. For the rolling ones, the ones whit collision avoidance that works when parking will slam on the brakes at the wall of water and brushes for the drive/roll through style ones and hop the rollers. Worst case you get beeped at like mad…
OKAY. On screen toggle.
If you are spending a lot of time and power to do laundry, consider one of the new LG wash and dry machines. They are heat pump driven and use under 10% of the power of an electric dryer.
Never said it did. Not sure why on their part. Other companies can and do have a liquid seal on their batteries with no problem. An EV should be able to ford water just as well as any standard commuter car of the same market segment. My etron can handle floods like a champ.
Vampire devices are pretty notable for things. My house is 1620sqft. single floor low roof.
2 years ago was monthly in the winter I’m looking at 450 average kwh.
Spring and fall were down to 320 when I can turn off the hvac and open windows.
Summer I’m looking at almost 1400kwh average. New Orleans summers suck.
I went…
Fitting for a CT operator.
Most modern cars with automated lights, park sensors, and wipers require you to turn them off before going through a car wash. Tesla just made those 3 toggles a single button.
the old ford indigo concept
For me. The Maxda RX-01 from 1995.
Their answer to the “heavy” rx-7. You can see a bit of the RX8 in it as well as a bit of the next miata there as well.
I was looking for this one. I couldn’t remember if it was a Nissan or Mazda.
Ah yes. The demon was soo close to production then the money stopped in the mid 00's and the segment fell in a pit.
They instead took to geriatric focus groups and made the Prowler...
I hate the turbine tribute car they did. They made a matte brown 300 with some weird wheels and spent a month of the build correcting production issues in the car they transformed.
They are typically used in commercial or in-house operations. Rarely do they make it out into the public, like Tesla does with the power wall. One of the big reasons you can’t retain a Tesla lease is the battery pack salvage efforts.
