    85D Discontinued

    How is improving technology being inconsiderate to owners? Alternatively, how are decreases in the cost of battery technology now versus some point in the past surprising to you or somehow a disservice to you as an owner? I don't follow that logic. You acknowledge that you had an opportunity to...

    Car Insurance

    I got a Geico quote for $445 for 6 months and AAA quoted me $620 for 6 months. I also spoke with Farmer's and Progressive but both of them were about $1000/6mo.

    Center console now standard

    I'm taking delivery in Fremont on Saturday too! Confirmed on March 14th. What delivery time did you schedule? I'm at 11AM. I'm not expecting the console but know that I'll have the new Slipstream wheels.

    Why does there seem to be so many salvaged cars?

    I got gap insurance from my bank when I was arranging financing, it only cost a 1-time $350 charge and it covers any difference between what I owe and what the insurance company pays out in the event of a total loss.

    Autopilot's last weak spot: driving into the sun on the freeway

    On surface streets I was surprised to find that AP would switch to tracking the car ahead of me and follow it when the lane lines disappeared (highlighted it in blue and moved where it went), does it only do this at low speeds? I've never seen it happen at freeway speeds.

    2016 Model S Refresh Mega-thread

    I have a car in production right now. I wasn't going to get a 100D even if it were available and the center console is too minor of a change to bother me. There will always be something just over the horizon or just around the corner. Now, if they do AP 2.0 hardware and/or a facelift on the...

    Fell asleep using Autopilot - admission from a Model S owner

    The few times I've taken longer drives with AP when tired I find that I actually stay alert longer than if I was actively doing all of the driving (like in my ICE). I always thought this was due to being able to conserve what attention and mental energy I had left, using AP is less tiring than...
