How Do I Do That in My Tesla? - by Scott Kelby & Terry White (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The unofficial manual that should have come with your car! Become a Tesla pro in no time with over 250 Tesla tips and tricks to get the most out of your electric vehicle!

Scott Kelby and Terry White, both renowned tech experts, long-time Tesla owners, and bestselling authors, have teamed up to create an entirely new concept for learning about your Tesla--a simple guide designed to get you straight to whatever it is you need to know about your Tesla right now, provide quick answers, and get you back to enjoying your awesome car.

Teslas are "tech cars," with so many remarkable features, but a bunch of them are kind of buried (you'd swear some are almost hidden by design), and a lot of them just aren't obvious. There will be times when you need to do something in your Tesla right now, but you're not sure where that feature is, what the "secret handshake" is to uncover it, or if that feature even exists in the first place. That's why this book was created--to get you to the feature, or the right button, or exactly the right setting you need, right now.

Here's how the book works: When you need to know how to do a particular thing, you turn to the relevant chapter (Charging, Navigation, Autopilot, etc.), find the specific thing you want to do (each page covers just one topic), and Scott and Terry show you exactly how to do it as if they were sitting right there in the car beside you, using the same casual writing style as if they were talking to a friend. You're going to learn so much about your Tesla, and you'll uncover lots of cool features you might have missed otherwise.

This isn't a book of confusing jargon only car nerds can understand. This is a practical guide that tells you where the thing you're looking for is, which settings we recommend, and exactly how and when to use them, so you're never stuck wondering how to do something in your Tesla again. This will be your go-to resource for learning everything you need to know about your Tesla and uncovering cool new features you didn't know were there (and there are a ton of them!). You're going to love having this type of help right at your fingertips. There's even a bonus chapter on how to deal with the electric vehicle haters and naysayers (they're out there, and you'll run into some, but at least now you'll be ready for 'em).

Whether you're a new Tesla driver or you've had one for a while now and you're looking to make the most of it, keep a copy in your glove box (or the eBook version on your phone), so Scott's and Terry's super-helpful tips are right there when you need them.
