2017 MX 100D owner here (previously a 2014 MS P85). 96K miles. No issues to complain of for the past few years. Going along in life happily wondering if the future holds a CT, an R1S, or something else...but nothing to worry about. BUT THEN: transfer FSD, transfer FUSC, $1K CT deposit discount...

Took delivery of my Model X in April 2017. The day I brought it home I programmed our two garage doors and the simple gate we have at the end of a shared private driveway. No issues for five years. Last week my gate Homelink stopped working. It would still trigger due to GPS, the menu would...

OK, I feel like an idiot asking a stupid question...but here we go. I picked up my MX in April 2017. My only windshield complaints were some ghosting at night. I've lived with it. In August my family took a 4 week road trip across the country and back and the MX sat in our garage the...

I have an original Tesla HPWC from my 2013 Model S. That car had dual chargers (as it was called back then), never had any charging problems with it or loaners. Last April 2017 I took delivery of my Model X 100D with the High Amperage Charger. My HPWC is set to 72A. Never had a single...

In my previous thread (Thule T2 Pro with extension) I shared my experience with our 4-bike Thule T2 Pro. Today I installed a new Yakima Dr. Tray & EZ-1. Pros: - Much lighter...better if the rumors of a low bike weight on our hitches is true (see discussion in prior thread) - Size is much...

Sitting waiting to pick up my daughter from school and something keeps catching my eye from the touchscreen. Sure enough, it keeps flashing "Close All" two times every 10 seconds or so. All doors are closed. Flipped into drive and back into park. Still doing it. Hoping it's not an early symptom!

Thought I'd figure out how the hitch on my 1 week old 100D works. Kinda frustrating since my delivery specialist had no clue so she called up a service tech. He proceeded to give me directions...which landed up being completely incorrect. He literally told me to just push it up there and use the...

Three days into my 44xxx 100D. Yes I have ghosting...even during the day. Sigh. But here's my question. I've worn Smith polarized sunglasses for the last few years. Zero issues. Today was our first sunny day since picking up the car and I put my sunglasses on. Suddenly all the cars off to...

Hello TMC, It's been a journey! I have loved my P85 Model S for 37 months and 48K miles but it was time to take advantage of my Resale Value Guarantee and get the family into an X. My youngest two (of three) kids were approaching the maximum size for the jump seats so my 7 seat Model S was...

Picking up my Model X today so trading in my Model S. Thought someone may want this sunshade and avoid paying Tesla's steep $90! Link below is to the eBay listing. If anyone here wants it before the eBay listing gets a bid I'll pull the listing. Send me a PM. Tesla Model S Rear Liftgate...

I'll qualify this post with a very clear disclaimer. This is my opinion only. It can be exhausting reading the problems shared in this forum and I wanted to provide my own personal perspective after owning a Model S for 3 years and 50K miles. 3.5 years ago I read the Model S forums...

I've documented here before why I cancelled my MX reservation and I have to say I've been incredibly pleased by that decision. Today Tesla released a press release that blamed production issues on: "Tesla's hubris in adding far too much new technology to the Model X in version 1, insufficient...

Over the past 3 years I've found these boards to be ridiculously valuable...in purchasing my Model S and now researching a Model X. I generally find the most value to come from those who share their real life experiences. Granted, I like a "white vs pearl" thread as much as the next guy, but...

Hey all, Looking for some feedback from the experts. My situation: My P85 will be 2 years old in March (specs in sig). Currently at 29K miles. Love the car to death. I've made the decision to exchange it for a Model X for two core reasons: - My only hesitation about buying the P85 almost 2...

First, some background...Installed a HPWC last March when I took delivery of my MS. My house is newer construction with 200A service and most of our major appliances are gas. Our local utility does not have off-peak pricing. Due to all this, since the day we got the car we plug it in upon...

Decided to take the kids camping for one night at Lake Easton State Park and then head out to Coeur d'Alene for the weekend for a little Silverwood and Boating. My wife and I with the three littles (ages 9, 7, and 4). Camping gear, long distance travel...makes sense to take the Sequoia. But...

Amazing timing. I had scheduled a few weeks ago to drop off my MS this morning for a tire rotation and a few other small warranty items. I head out to my car this morning, unplug the HPWC, hop in and I notice the center console is on but the Instrument Panel was dark. I waited a few minutes...

Despite getting my MS in March, I haven't yet had the opportunity for a roadtrip...until yesterday. I had some worries after reading the forums but they were all unfounded. - Needing to drive conservative: didn't notice it all. Drove at my standard rate (speed limit 70, driving 73-75) and my...

Warning...obvious, dumb question ahead! Took delivery in March but with three kids I have yet to put down the jump seats. We use them virtually every day. Today I'm going on a road trip after work so I put the seats down. I had previously purchased the All-Weather mat package so I had the...

I read the forums. My wife and I watched the official Tesla video. We listened carefully to the delivery specialist as he showed us. Less than two months in and we have a dent where the frunk latches. So annoying. My wife said it best: "I understand being careful but it seems crazy that we...

This feels like a dumb question, but here I go. When I picked up my MS two weeks ago the guy going through the controls told me to leave my lights in Auto. He indicated that the headlights come on when it's dark and the fog lights will come on when it's foggy. I've had auto-headlights in my...

Yes...another "it's been one week" type post but as I was debating ordering then waiting through the delivery period I found these posts informative and entertaining. Hopefully my feedback can help someone else make some decisions: Details on car: see signature The things just lives up to all...

'Twas the night before delivery, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even my spouse; The HPWC was hung in the garage with care, In hopes that a P85 soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of rear-facing seats danced in their...

As I march toward my Wednesday delivery, had an odd little quirk come through yesterday. Tesla updated my dashboard with my final financing information and I was surprised to see that the loan amount was different than what we originally agreed on. I wanted to finance through Tesla to secure...

I'm less than two weeks from my P85 delivery here in Seattle and was in Whistler this past weekend. As I went over the border and shut off data roaming on my iPhone I began to wonder what happens to the Model S's data when it crosses the border...does it roam? Does it shut off? Apologies if...

- Ordered P85 2/10 - Confirmed S85 2/22 - Was happy about the decision - Even made a post about being content: .. reconfirm for P85? - Page 2 - Delivery date set for 3/29 - Just sent the email asking to upgrade to the P85 again...ahhh!!! Weakness!!! DS said he sent the request to HQ and it...

So I'm waiting for my 3/28 delivery and am still doing the S vs P debate in my head. While working with my financing options today I went back into the design studio to re-create my order and found a small price drop from when I ordered a few weeks ago. Yacht Floor (Obeche Matte): $650 when I...

We arrive home from vacation yesterday to a large pile of mail. The wife is flipping through and I hear a large gasp from across the room. I turn to see her holding up a letter from Tesla (my "thank you" letter from Jerome...ordered last week). She is wide eyed with mouth open and gives me...

Yes, another one of "those" posts of someone asking for validation/advice/camaraderie...but hey, it's midnight, the house is asleep, and who else am I going to share my excitement/nervousness/concerns with? I can't believe I just bought a car (let alone one 3x any other car I've bought) sitting...

SE Seattle Wrap/Tints Will be ordering my Model S in the next few days and am doing some research on wrap and/or tint installers. I'm seeing references to Metropolitan and others up in the Bellevue area. I could make that work but I live down in Maple Valley (and work in Kent)...does anyone...
