EV stands for electric vehicle. It’s the new way of getting around, using renewable energy instead of fossil fuels in cars with internal combustion engines (ICEs).
I’ve been to CES way more times than I can count with my fingers. Each time, upon returning, friends and family ask about the “coolest” thing I’ve seen at the show, and I often don’t have a clear answer. This time around, though, at CES 2026, I ran into something …
As you might have noticed, I attended CES 2025 in Las Vegas, which lasted during the entire first working week of the year. What you didn’t know, though, is that I drove there. Even more, I passed by Death Valley on the way there and back. Yes, that “Deeeaath Valley!” …
April 2024 was an interesting month for Tesla owners and Tesla itself. Like many others, we received an unsolicited month-long free trial of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) for our 2023 Model 3 in the last days of March. There was a twist: the feature’s name was literally spelled “Full Self-Driving …
If you’re about to get an electric vehicle and are concerned about getting your EV charging situation sorted out at home without getting seriously charged—as in digging a big hole in your wallet—you’re reading the right post. I’ll explain how to fill your new vehicle’s “tank” and avoid those over-the-top …
Among the things I “love” about driving a Tesla, its Safety features—Sentry vs. Dashcam—rank right below the notorious Autopilot. I like the former enough to opt for the $9.99/month of Tesla Premium connection, although I had already successfully hooked the car to Comcast’s xfinitywifi public Wi-Fi network. If you wonder …
Since my story on having a flat tire with my Model Y, I’ve gotten a lot of messages asking about Tesla tires, and interestingly, many of those pointed out those curb rashes on my car’s rim. So, I’ll talk more about Tesla tires, rims, and those pesky scratches on the …
After over 20,000 miles on my 2021 Tesla Model Y Long Range, my 2-plus-year move from gas, or internal combustion engine (ICE), to electric has proved quite a trip. For the most part, it’s been a fun ride. But it could have been even more fun if I had known …
On February 26, 2023, among other things, the White House announced that by the end of 2024, Tesla would open part of its US charging network, including Superchargers and Destination Chargers, to non-Tesla electric vehicles (EVs) and build significantly more charging stations that support all EVs. Below is the portion …
Here’s some sensible news regarding Tesla’s ongoing flip-flop in its driving automation: Earlier this week, the company brought back the Enhanced Autopilot package. The good? It costs only $6000. The bad? It still costs a whopping $6000. First introduced in October 2016, Enhanced Autopilot (EAP) was the original next level …
And I’m back. If you didn’t notice, I hadn’t posted anything new for over a week. That was not out of laziness, writer’s block, a long hangover, or any of those usual suspects. Our summer break—first in years—in Maui was as memorable as expected, possibly even more than expected. We …
