    Tesla should offer Range Extenders for Rental

    This thing is huge, and for the majority the owners, this is only needed once in a blue moon. I think many folks could use the extra range from time to time, but not all the time but for that 1-2% of the year (3-5 days of the year), I think it would be extremely helpful to be able to rent the...

    Anyway to reach out to the Tesla Referral program?

    I have some issues with how referral credits were distributed, and after helping my sister buy her first Tesla, all the points went to her, instead of being distributed between her and me, or preferably (all me :p). I was going to use the points to get her a wall charger but now I can't! The old...

So imagine: Dent - just bend it back Hole - Patch it with another piece piece of...

Anyone else experiencing this?

    [Feature Request] Turn off Auto-Dimming Mirrors

    I wish Tesla would allow us to turn off the auto-dimming mirrors especially if there is no cars behind us. It makes the side mirrors useless at night. AFAIK, it turns on/off based on time which means its software controlled and possibly turned off.

    New Referral Reward Ideas

    Since the current reward is scheduled to end Dec. 17th (I expect them to extend it TBH). I think Tesla should start adding Free Unlimited Supercharging as a referral reward (FUSC) in future programs. Something like 1st Referral: $100 SC Credit 2nd Referral: Free HPWC or Model S for Kids 3rd...

    My Thoughts on Autopilot Efficiency

    After having done a moderate drive with and without autopilot on a long stretch of highway (I've put about 330 miles in the first day I got my car :D), I definitely noticed that autopilot is not that efficient compared to my normal driving habits.

    What did you order RWD/AWD/AWD-P and have you received it yet?

    I'm particularly interested in how many AWD (non-P) and P models have been delivered and was wondering what the population of orders and deliveries is so far on this forum. This is for those who have paid their $2500 deposit fee already so we can see those waiting and those in nirvana.
