Frank Osborne+FollowEV charging just got a lot more complicatedEV owners, brace yourselves: the adapter drama is real. GM is rolling out three new charging dongles to help you juice up at more stations, but now you might need a collection just to keep up. Two-EV households could end up with four different adapters! While it means more flexibility, it’s also more stuff to keep track of (and stash in your trunk). Charging your car on the go? Don’t forget your dongles—or you might be stranded. #Cars #CarOwnership #EVLife101Share

Not!Imagine coming back to your Tesla and finding someone’s scribbled all over it—then realizing your fancy Sentry Mode security didn’t even catch the culprit! That’s what happened to one Model Y owner, and Reddit’s got feelings. Turns out, Sentry Mode can be super buggy after updates, so double-check your settings.

joseph36+FollowTesla Supercharger Hack: Worth It?Turns out, you don’t need a Tesla to use their Superchargers anymore!

Would you try it for your next adventure? #Cars #CarOwnership #EVLife41Share
William Goodwin+FollowTesla Owner Obsessed With This FeatureA new Tesla Model Y owner just dropped a hot take: the sound system is next-level, even with fewer speakers than other models! People are raving about the audio quality, and the hype is real. Plus, with potential discounts and incentives coming (thanks to changes in EV tax credits), now might be the perfect time to jump on the Tesla train. Would you switch to an EV if it came with a free home charger? Sound off below! #Cars #TeslaModelY #EVLife712Share
Michael Wilson+FollowTesla Road Trip Reality CheckEver wondered what it’s really like to road trip in a Tesla? Meryl found out the hard way—she had to stop FIVE times to charge between Minneapolis and Chicago! Turns out, starting with a low battery and speeding can zap your range fast. Some say she could’ve made it with just one stop if she’d planned better. Moral of the story: EV road trips are all about prep, patience, and maybe slowing down a bit! #Cars #Tesla #EVLife00Share
schmidtgeorge+FollowEV makes people more prone to car sickness?If you’ve ever felt a little nauseous in an electric car, you’re not alone! And that's true! - EVs are actually making some people sick—even those who never had motion sickness in gas-powered cars. Experts say our bodies are used to the sounds, vibrations, and gradual acceleration of combustion engines. EVs flip that on its head. They’re nearly silent, deliver instant torque from a stop, and often use one-pedal driving with regenerative braking. Without the usual engine noise or the familiar jolt of pressing the brake, your brain may struggle to anticipate movement, causing nausea. Passengers often feel it more, but even drivers can get queasy, especially with uneven throttle or braking inputs. Some researchers suggest adding “auditory motion cues” (think fake engine sounds) to help—though not everyone wants that feature. Have you ever felt sick in an EV? 😂 #EVLife #CarTalk #MotionSickness #DrivingExperience #Cars #EVs 10Share
dalemiller+FollowEV Repairs: Cheaper, But Way Slower?Turns out, fixing your EV costs less than a gas car—unless you count your time. A new study says over half of non-Tesla EV owners pay less for repairs, but here’s the kicker: getting your car back takes way longer. In 2024, only 28% of EVs were fixed same-day (down from 40% last year), and more owners had to leave their cars overnight. Tesla owners fare a bit better, but still—be ready to wait! #Cars #EVLife #CarRepairs51Share
Jerry Clark+FollowWould You Swap Your EV Battery Like a Soda Can?Imagine swapping your car battery as quickly as grabbing a cold drink! That’s the idea behind new battery swap stations powered by solar and wind in South Africa. Instead of waiting hours to charge, you just pull in, swap out, and go—perfect for delivery drivers or anyone on the move. The twist? These stations run on clean energy, so you’re not just saving time, you’re helping the planet too. If this catches on, it could make owning an electric car way less stressful! #EVLife #GreenEnergy #SouthAfrica #Business #Industry01Share
maria33+FollowCybertruck: Typewriter to Laptop VibesImagine swapping your old F-150 for a Tesla Cybertruck and feeling like you just upgraded from a typewriter to a laptop. That’s how one owner describes it after three weeks behind the wheel. He’s obsessed with the futuristic drive, especially the steer-by-wire and rear-wheel steering—says it’s worth every penny of the $80K price tag. Other owners are just as hyped, calling it a total game-changer. Would you pay that much to drive the future? #TeslaCybertruck #EVLife #FutureOfDriving #Cars00Share
Nicole Morgan+FollowTesla’s Camera Update DramaTesla just dropped a camera update and drivers are NOT happy. The new layout shrinks the rear view and makes everything look way farther than it is—people are saying parking is now a nightmare. Some even hit their garage or mirrors! A few folks like the wider view, but most want the old setup back. Tesla’s now adding a toggle to switch views, but it’s wild how one update can spark so much chaos. Would you trust your car after this? #TeslaUpdate #TechFails #EVLife #Cars10Share
