What we do maybe once a year is recalibrate the battery management system (BMS) by running it as low as possible. Like single digit percent. Then charge it to 100% and leave it for an hour or two. Then go on a drive. Repeat a few times. Then the BMS will usually show much more estimated range.

We’ve had a January 2018 3 since new. I think it’s time for us to do it again.

You have to test drive both to compare and will probably know right away.

We have both and I love my S P100D. It feels substantial. Moody/cocooning. Fast. Has a hatchback. Huge amount of space. Dedicated autopilot stalk. Buttons on the steering wheel to do a lot of functions. I like the alcantara headliner. As I get older, the screen is easier to see than the model 3.

It’s also all aluminum so will not rust.

It’s not as nimble or easy to park as our 3 though.

I had mobile service come out and replace it while I was on vacation. They unlocked it from their app. We just replace ours proactively every 2 years. ~$100 to not have to deal with it in an unexpectedly.

I have an older one and your crystal looks deeper/thicker.

Why not? The stock Y is boring, especially if you get the performance model. The fast one should look more exciting.

They report production and deliveries every month.

Tesla Announces Vehicle Production, Deliveries and Date for Financial Results for Q2 2024

My endo ordered Follicle Stimulating Hormone, Luteinizing Hormone, TSH, Free T4, ACTH, Cortisol, Samotasatin, prolactin, PSA, SHBG and a CBC.

Depending on the results she said I might have needed a brain MRI to rule out a pituitary gland tumor for secondary hypogonadism. In the end it was primary so she ordered an ultrasound of my testicles before starting me on TRT.

You won’t know until you get a blood test. Most people respond to 100 mg so you will probably be off the chart.

I’ve had type 2 for a few years. My A1C drastically improved since starting TRT in January and is back in the normal range. I wish my doctors tested for low T from the start instead of me needing to test on my own and bring it to them.

I’m using an insulin syringe and injecting subq. Maybe that’s the difference.

Maybe you need different syringes because I have none left when mine are used.

I bet they were looking at their phone, realized they were over the line and overreacted.

Yes, Rolex but probably not a Patek. I checked the Rolex sub polls for income and NW. I have several million in retirement accounts since we’re trying to FATfire but just can’t splurge on a gen I plan to wear, scratch and dent. I don’t think I would ever buy one to keep in the box to look at. It doesn’t feel like a good use of money. This is probably because of my FIRE mentality. I would rather have the money grow in the accounts than have physical assets.

I use airline miles and credit card points for business or first class. I learned it early on since I was traveling for consulting work right out of college. This got me hooked on the aspirational travel but also made it where I hate paying for it with money.

Note: it’s not my video. She’s a famous YouTuber.

Great for starting a YouTube. I’m sure there are people that would be interested.

Thanks for the update! How do you waterproof them?

I have worn my panda everyday for the last few weeks since I got it and so far have had zero looks or comments.

I use to but when I started to pay attention to my appearance, people treated me better. Also I think it gave me more credibility at work especially for people I have not met before. I’m taking more about fit and style rather than expensive brands. I almost never wear anything with visible brand.

I like my 2018 S. When they were clearing out inventory they were selling 100D for as low as $52k. I went for my P100D for $76k.

It’s possible that it’s a left over inventory car. Mine was a 2018 and I didn’t take delivery until April 2019. Maybe they didn’t take delivery until March 1, 2020.

I have 20” TSportline TSS and could never get them to balance as well as my factory 21”. There was always a slight vibration.

We use to camp in our S all the time. The X is compromised on headroom due to the falcon wing doors so it’s not as big as you would expect for camping. Check out this video from a few years ago. https://youtu.be/LivPZulOtcQ?si=sZJgACECxF-R_zD2

You can ask but the translations all sound like “I can’t help with that yet, but I’m learning more everyday!” /s

The NIH also suggests 3 months for Test U after a loading dose with 6 week interval. It says this works for 70% of patients.

While not retiring, I suggest taking a look at this Facebook group Where Do Gays Retire. There is a lot of discussion and first hand reviews over the years.

Even Justice Sotomayor is straight up telling Biden to do that.
