Nissan joins in on the Supercharger fun with the Ariya electric vehicle, but unlike other electric vehicles, Nissan says additional hardware, a spacer between the DC pins, is required to use the network. Let's talk about why that could be.
While a ton of automakers have been announcing their move to NACS and gaining access to the Supercharger network, just a few automakers actually have access so far.

Tesla Finally Allows Lease Buyouts! Is It Better To Lease or Buy?
In this episode of the Out of Spec Podcast, Jordan and Isaiah dive into Tesla’s latest move to allow lease buyouts. Starting November 27th, Tesla now gives customers the option to purchase their leased vehicles at the end of their term. We discuss how this new policy impacts EV leasing, the financial breakdown of lease buyouts versus outright purchases, and the potential benefits for Tesla owners who want to keep their cars longer. We also explore how this move might help Tesla manage its inventory, especially with refreshed models like the Highland Model 3 and upcoming vehicles like the Juniper Model Y.

024! What It’s Like Going Back In Time
In this episode of the Out of Spec Podcast, we sit down with the OG Model S team (Dan, Alex, Tom) from the I-90 Surge to recount their epic cross country road trip in a 2012 Tesla Model S 85.

They reflect on the evolution of Tesla's technology, the surprising endurance of their benchmark vehicle, and memorable moments, including landmarks, team banter, and late-night hallucinations during their sleep-deprived adventure.

Tesla Bans Wet Rag Trick!
Episode 432: Join Kyle and Francie to talk about Supercharging tricks. Tesla has officially banned the wet rag trick, a method previously used by some Tesla owners to increase Supercharger speeds. The technique involved wrapping a wet rag around the charging handle to trick the temperature sensor and thus allow for faster charging rates. While this method was known to improve charging times, Tesla said it doesn't impact charging & has prohibited its use to ensure the safety of the Supercharging process.

2000 Mile Tesla EV Roadtrip Saved By CCS - Slow V2 Superchargers, LFP Batteries, Tesla Autosteer Software Updates, & More!
Join Francie and Ryan as they discuss Ryan's most recent 2000-mile EV roadtrip when CCS was actually preferred over Tesla Superchargers at points along his route from Colorado to California! Ryan talks about his route and how along the way the fact that only V2 Superchargers are available make CCS charging the preferred way to charge. They dive into how Ryan logs his Tesla Model 3 roadtrip data, the importance of charging speeds and locations of EV chargers, benefits of an LFP battery, hotel electric vehicle charging amenities, and how we think the charging experience might change with the switch over to NACS and more cars on the Tesla network.
