    meanwhile on the flip side…Porsche is just being mean…

    tldr; there's a reason and it's not weight - it's the factory Magnetic Shifter Paddles - as to why you can read below - I'm weak and pathetic and really really don't want to have to do this f**ker over…so I made zero compromises…there are like less than 2000 (I don't know this for a fact, but...

    meanwhile on the flip side…Porsche is just being mean…

    build code for the curious - pricing and options are slightly different than my actual build because the configuration tools has moved on to newer stuff - I originally configured mine in Nov. 2022 - and that exact set of options is no longer available…but this is close enough I'm looking...

    Anyone going back to a Tesla?

    to answer the question from the "subject" short answer "No!" more nuanced answer… it depends - I may have never left - if I want something pedestrian/normal/mid-ranged the answer is "I never left"… the Tesla Model 3/Y are the best cars on the market right now for their price range and...

    Coming from Tesla to Taycan, but worried about charging on road trips.

    this is what I see for Europe from inside the Tesla app - it updates as you pinch/zoom the map - so this screen shot is not all the charger's open - just the chargers in "view" of the map…you can check your route with the Tesla app to see which supercharger sites are open for non-Tesla's via the...

    Coming from Tesla to Taycan, but worried about charging on road trips.

    compatible yes - authorized no. Tesla to date in europe has some/most/more-than-you-want locked down Tesla's only - you can only charge at sites that allow non-Tesla's…this is an authorization issue, not a compatibility issue. an example here in North America is I'm not authorized to use the...

    Coming from Tesla to Taycan, but worried about charging on road trips.

    there is NO North American CCS1 vehicle that will address your concerns about charger reliability if that is a key requirement for your purchasing decision - this is due to a number of factors, but in general the North American CCS1 charging network… lacks greatness demonstrates unreliability...

    in general a working EA charger is faster than the alternatives - if things go well I routinely get 175 kw from 150 kw EA chargers - the other networks have been slow on the uptake of faster charging speeds - i use other networks as back up for EA and when there is no alternatives i’ve been...

    don't use the routing apps as a "must have" rather it will illuminate "options" in the general vincinity of where you'll need to stop based on range. I normally "war game" the route in ABRP - and then when I know approximately what area on route I'm going to need to stop - I then switch to...

    California to Seattle is an easy EV trip and you'll have a great time. I've done it in both Tesla's and my Taycan several times. Is the car ordered, delivered, when are you getting it? My favorite stop overnight is Ashland oregon - the plaza Inn and suites in ashland has EV chargers and is...

    plug share can "filter" charger to show which chargers have plugs compatible with your vehicle - I have screen shot of the filters you can use with your Taycan (if you have a TeslaTap) setting these filters will show you charger locations that match those types of plugs - green map pins are...

    tesla tap requires _NO_ app - it only works at non-superchargers - and those type (non-supercharger) chargers do not require any "activation" or biling…you might however need "permission" of the business owner who is hosting the charger Example: the 'oaks' hotel in Paso Robles has EV chargers -...
