    Thule Edge Wingbar or Porsche roofbars for CT4?

    I would go Thule bars 100%. I ordered mine from a European retailer since I could not find what I wanted in the US, so you should have options to find solid bars that are also flush with the vehicle.

    Hybrid Alternative to all electric

    I have been seeing the recent reviews on the new Turbo e-hybrid Cayenne with the updated interior and larger battery and honestly I am intrigued as well, so you are are not alone @Vim Schrotnock My recent 850 mile/1360km run from Scottsdale to Denver took 16 and a half hours in the Taycan...

    No brainer. Ice Grey.

    Lectron NACS to CCS1 adapter

    I like my visionaries to be more a$$hole than megalomaniacal, that is all I am saying. Steve Jobs was notorious for being an a$$hole, but was no near the bottom feeding troll that Musk is. Bill Gates was laser focused on creating and expanding Microsoft. He is the exact opposite of what...

    Lectron NACS to CCS1 adapter

    I agree with everything you said. Nothing wrong with being a megalomaniacal a$$hole when your focus is to lead industrial change. All that can be done without Elon Musk's penchant for bigotry, racism, anti-semitism, and anti-democratic fascist tendencies..

    Lectron NACS to CCS1 adapter

    Let's not make Elon Musk out to be some incredible visionary who created an entirely new vertical. He is not the original spark of inspiration behind Tesla. Space X, the tunnel company, robotics, AI, or any of the other things he dabbles in are all evolutionary progress on things already...

    Lectron NACS to CCS1 adapter

    It's all good, you do you. Between Electrify America, the Rivian charging network, State of Colorado chargers, and the slowly expanding Travel Centers of America locations, I can get to everywhere I want to go. Just the thought of giving any of my money to Elon Musk makes me want to vomit.

    Lectron NACS to CCS1 adapter

    If I lived in the Pacific Northwest or California I would be way more excited about Rivian opening up their network than Tesla. They currently have 11 high speed chargers open in Oregon and Washington alone, and like 15 in California. They have one under construction in Seattle currently and...

    Another fantastic weekend with my CT4

    Of all the different types of cancer out there, prostate is one of the more researched and more manageable, if detected early. Luckily, mine was. I elected for radiation treatment, so I have a future of blood work being done every three months to monitor to look forward to besides the havoc...

    Another fantastic weekend with my CT4

    Jully 22, 2022 I got diagnosed with the big C. Obviously, it was so heavy duty stuff to deal with, so the next morning I got in the CT and loaded the bike on the back and drove from Denver to Idaho Falls for the first leg of my journey to Jackson to hide out, decompress, and cope. The picture...

    Another fantastic weekend with my CT4

    In the fall of 2020 and the Spring of 2021 when I was not traveling for work and desperate to get out of the house and hit the road, this is what I resorted to. This was my first Taycan that I got in May, 2020. The CT4S makes bike transport sooooooooooooo much easier. The CT picture...

    Another fantastic weekend with my CT4

    I have never tried to put a fork holder on the one side to lower the bike height to see if that will improve airflow over the car when a bike is on the back. My bike is an XL mt. bike, so what I do to help air flow is lower the seat post and saddle so it sits below the car roof line. I...

    Another fantastic weekend with my CT4

    I love seeing the CT put to use like this since this is how I use mine here in Colorado. I had a charging component failure last month that left me stranded in Colby, KS at 9am on a Sunday morning. Porsche service got me and the car picked up and delivered the 240 miles back to Denver with...

    Electrify America Debuts First Indoor Flagship Station in San Francisco

    Yes. Luckily it was only out of commission for a week. The car got some new charging components, and seems to be working fine. I also got a certain acknowledgment from Porsche that makes up for the inconvenience I went through. I am road tripping in the Taycan to Tucson for three days next...

    Electrify America Debuts First Indoor Flagship Station in San Francisco

    I hate to interrupt one of this forum's favorite past times of whining about Electrify America, but I did want to clarify something. Kyle is not a "westerner." He moved to Colorado a few years ago from the southeast. I want to say North Carolina. Ok, back to whining about Electrify...

    Kyle shows you: "How To Option The New 2025 Porsche Taycan"

    Of course. It may be just me, but when I prefer Thomas when it comes to reviewing Porsches. I also like Mat Watson from the CarWow channel. He has the whole snarky British humor thing going, which I enjoy. Mat also owns a new GT3 RS, so he actually has some Porsche credibility. I also...

    Taycan to Lofoten Islands, Norway (Follow Our Trip Report)

    @tigerbalm You continue to serve as a model for the rest of us who enjoy long road trips in our Taycans. You make my 2,500km drives to throughout the American Rockies or American plain states seem like a drive to the local market when you post about these epic drives to the Arctic Circle! I...

    Kyle shows you: "How To Option The New 2025 Porsche Taycan"

    I will give Kyle credit for creating a "YouTube empire" by simply covering EVs. It has provided him with credibility to get early access to a number of launch vehicles, and allowed him to buy a few cars. I am not 30 years old, so his manner of communication does nothing for me. If there...

    Anyone have 12v issues recently? What was service outcome?

    As background, the first system warning I got was the "Electrical System Error," and that was then followed up by a 12v battery system error. With this issue, there was no self clearing by walking away from the car for 15 or 20 minutes to see if it would reset itself. I keep the group in to...
