Back in November 2019, I wrote about my choice to replace the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 originally fittet on my Tesla Model 3 with all-season Michelin CrossClimate+ tyres (I recommend reading that article to learn more about my choice of tyre size etc.). After 30 months and 85,000 km (53,000 miles), these tires were ripe […]

That’s what the service technician said when he arrived at my house to do the requested end-of-warranty check. I was concerned that after leaving warranty something might go wrong and I would end up with a big bill (been there, done that, with other vehicles). So, I thought the quoted AUD$200 was a small price […]

These are the signs that met us as we started our wedding anniversary stay at Rice’s Log Cabins in the Bunya Mountains. The dingo notice was on the fridge in the cabin. The wild dog notice was at the beginning of the nature walks in the national park. Although we saw (and photographed) lots of […]

Tesla is building and selling cars at a rate of over one million per year now, so there are a lot of people out there who will need to know a few things about their new Tesla (or other EV). I took delivery of my first Nissan LEAF in February 2014, my second LEAF in […]

This is going to be an ordinary, everyday article about mundane things. Nothing exciting to see here. However, it will be practical. A question you may have heard or asked yourself from time to time: “Can I charge my Tesla from a power point using an extension cord?” Disclaimer: I am not an electrician nor […]

The most popular CleanTechnica articles in January were, as it turns out, led by a bit of an unusual post for us. While it was a genuine list of the “worst things” about owning a Tesla Model 3 (from my perspective), there are buckets of humor enveloping it all

Hitting the 25,000 km (15,534 mile) mark in 8 months seems like a good excuse to let you all in on how things are working out for me and my Tesla Model

I’ll admit it — I’m super eager for the first edition of Tesla “Full Self Driving” to roll out. Before critics start freaking out, I should make clear that I don’t expect to nap, work, or watch movies while using initial iterations of Full Self Driving.
