I just found the set of wheels I have been looking for for my van. They are 5 x 5 18X7.5 offset 44.45

Well, no you see once you get a Tesla the first "over the air upgrade" is to your own intelligence level.

As evidenced by the smart summon videos, of course! Damn me and my puny ICE brain for not knowing that.

One neighbor already called for them to be broken up and taken over locally. The winds here are still at the moment. I think there's going to be some anger over all of this.

We've had two or three warnings before without outages. This time they really did it. There are other areas of the state that have faced outages, more rural and remote areas that get winds more often. Given a choice between my house burning down and an outage now and then, I like the outages, but then I don't know how effective this is. If everybody starts firing up their propane stoves outdoors, they're going to probably increase the chances of fire, not reduce then.

The whole autosummon fail shows just how far from actual autonomous tech Tesla is. I'm still pondering a Model 3, but not for the vaporware.

^ That's AWESOME! Thank you!

My wife and I have taken the van out now half a dozen times. Everything works great!

Lulu Loves the van! She totally thinks it's her new "dog house"! LOL!

That happens any time ANYONE with a propensity to be a pompous arsehole buys a new car... or anything else.

It has NOTHING to do with Tesla. However, Tesla seems to grab a lot more headlines, so when those folks also seek attention... well, they get it.

These simulators look more like Star Trek shuttlecraft when you aren't sitting in the cockpit, lol.
