    Cayenne Vs Taycan

    The Cross Turismo 4 and the base Cayenne are virtually identical in wheelbase, length and width as well as weight. The only difference is height and cg and that's where the driving dynamics improve for the Taycan. Having had both I can tell you the Cayenne is much better for a long trips...

    Mattel bought Matchbox after starting up Hot Wheels and nearly driving them out of business, but brought them back. There were Hot Wheels all around our holiday eleganza today with the grandkids constantly rolling them under our steps.

    Good segue from a potential blow up. Mahogany metallic is a beautiful color. Porsche has been using it for over a decade when it started on the Boxster. I had a Cayenne that color for 9 years. Keeping it clean in appearance can be a chore. Get a California Duster.

    A positive Taycan post...kind of

    Starting on a Monday for a week I had a Macan loaner while service center did the brake line recall and lotsa updates including the mobile charger connect on my '23CT. It felt so mundane and was not exciting to drive. My wife's Q5 feels more responsive. Plus what's with that noise in front of...

    If you look at the build quality you'll be amazed that a Tesla got out the factory door. Especially comparing Porsches exacting assembly. The frunk was open on one I was inspecting and I was cut on the trailing edge of the "hood". So I started looking around it further and found sharp edges and...

    Where do I set Home charge to 85%

    I have the exact two same profiles set up. LA Porsche Experience Center Mgr and a track star recommended 85% for local and 100% for trips. Said don't worry about 100% even at DC chargers if you precondition.

    Porsche Taycan with Sound - What Do you Think ? 👍🏽👎🏽

    This is not about the sound on the exterior that warns pedestrians about your car's presence below 20 mph. This is about the fake sound inside to make you feel better about driving spiritedly your quiet car and the initial thread post video and comment about making it sound like a bad boy car...

    Porsche Taycan with Sound - What Do you Think ? 👍🏽👎🏽

    No way! I'm looking forward to the day when all you hear is a mild whir going by on the roadways instead of tomato can exhaust backfires from a bad boy Subaru WRX or other rice rocket and damn cartoonish rollin' coal jacked diesel penis envying hillbillly trucks that sees less off-road than my...

    Porsche Scheduled Maintenance Plan

    I bit on the maintenance plan before I picked up the car at the Porsche Experience Center in L.A. When the manager of the delivery center and another delivery employee (who by the way were fantastic) were telling me about the maintenance schedule I told them I bought the maintenance plan. They...

    FYI for north I-5, BC 99 travelers. A new EA station opening soon at the southern Bellingham Fred Meyer one block off Lakeway Drive exit on east side of freeway. Next to their gas station. Lotsa manuevering space plus scads of services to walk to within one block. It appears completed but...

    New Charger-related recall (for the 240 V cable) (NHTSA ID 23V-841)

    I charge at 20 amps overnight to 80% for local or 95-100% for trip profile. I always check the cable when I go into the garage for heat and notice a little warmth if any. I thunk I'll take a chance and stay with what I have until the new cable arrives. My garage is detached so I won't die as a...

    Costco for tires. Free install now too. Plus Costco is effectively local to us in the NW. I always buy Michelin as replacement meats. Why? They budget a larger amount of profit to research and development than other manufacturers thus a step ahead. Consumer Reports often has them rated at or...
