Automakers love connected vehicles, but support isn't open-ended.

    I preordered one. I think I might see how to use meshtastic to add remote start. Should be able to have bidirectional status and huge range.

      You have my attention… but with Meshcore and a repeater magnet mounted to the roof.

        a repeater magnet mounted to the roof.

        What’s a repeater magnet?

          Meshcore uses a Repeater & Companion Node setup where as Meshtastic is more peer to peer.

          Here’s a quick video showing the concept I had in my head.

          The magnet is the antenna mount type, but I personally would use one of the roof rack screw points, to act as structure and a ground plane connection.

      It’s an electric truck. You don’t need remote start.

      I presume you mean remote climate control.

        Yes but Kleenex and Google. Its a generic term for turning your car on away from the “start” “ignition” button.

          Sort of like the gas pedal in my leaf.
