I also love the interior as well. It's quite an achievement for the designers to be able to incorporate all the different material elements together in such a small package. |
I was looking at an i3 a little while ago. I like them quite a bit but will be scared if I didn't get the REX model with range of about 100km in the cold. |

I have tons of experience downhill mountain biking so two wheels is not foreign to me, but with an engine between your legs it is a completely different experience. I have been doing the "fun" roads on the scooter that I normally do in my cars, and it is so much more enjoyable Lol. |
^ I picked up a ruckus a couple years ago, and coming from the downhill MB has messed me up for the brakes, I want to swap the controls as I almost ditched it trying to grab all the rear and locked up the front instead |

^How much would a brake job be on a model 3? Pads and rotors.. Looking to buy one next year. |

over here...Tesla people only pay for the tires, SC km, cracked windshield, missing screws under the car, and mods. |
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b983d48631.jpg I’m driving a 2020 X Long range and the amount of regenerative braking these motors give is really strong. It’s amazing how much I don’t use the pad brakes even if I’m driving spiritedly and needing to slow down right after. I can see the only times I really need pad brakes are if a car cuts me off/pedestrian runs out unexpectedly or if I’m needing to stop at a light down a very steep hill. I do notice that when I come to a stop using just the right pedal, the parking brake shows up in the speedo using pad brakes to keep the vehicle from rolling if on an grade but I never feel it sticking as I throttle....it just launches and takes off like a silent scared kitty. lol |
^^ usually called ‘brake hold’ which most modern automatics with electric parking brakes have. Should be able to turn that off. Usually a seperate system from hill-assist |

Yup. Our 5 series has that. I use it when I’m slightly tired in traffic. Just in case....at least it keeps me held in place. lol. After swapping rear rotors and pads last weekend I see how the electronic parking brake/brake hold works. Gone is the drum parking brake. So if you have no rear brakes left or heat faded pads, you have no rear emergency brake. lol |
I did the Duffey Lake Loop a couple of days ago with a couple of friends. https://i.imgur.com/lANt5ra.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GSbMPNS.jpg https://i.imgur.com/44bAFQE.jpg https://i.imgur.com/lvfcMCr.jpg |

Don’t see the veteran plate much anymore. Looks good on the rsx-s wheels |

In a Tesla, assuming you time your distance right, one only needs to use the accelerator pedal. Once you let go of the pedal, the regen will go all the way down to 0, and then the car would stop and hold until one puts down the accel pedal again. It's actually really comfy once you get used to it and feel lazy having to go between gas/brake all the time. |
Tesla eases off on the regen just before the stop just like how we learned how to ease off brake pressure to stop smoothly. So it comes to a perfect full regen stop! |
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...8293a363_h.jpgUntitled by GhstRidr, on Flickr My instagram has been inundated with 996 aero cars lately. Many of them are on their original sport design wheels. My car came w a set, but I've never tried em out. They look good! I'd like to run some spacers just to shove em out a bit. |
im reminded why i bought a hybrid... holy gas milage... and by my own tracking, this is actually quiet accurate.... this was all city, needed to get to kits... from bby... took these photos while i was fueling back up, saw 125.9 today and was like yup! https://scontent.fyvr4-1.fna.fbcdn.n...a5&oe=5F42CDB6 https://scontent.fyvr4-1.fna.fbcdn.n...0e&oe=5F43B69A |
