    Remember when all the pilots here were like FINALLY A YOKE!

    Without actually realizing that the use of the car steering wheel is completely different than a plane where you don’t have to rotate it multiple times to make a turn Just watched @omarsultan video of him driving it and it looks awkward and just not as pleasant as a wheel, who would have...

    A video for Tesla fanboys and girls.

    Why is Tesla not using used cars as loaners?

    So many service centers don’t have enough loaners, yet they have a lot of used cars in storage at manheim. Why not spread them out to service centers and use them as a loaner? That would also add the benefit of being able to allow potential buyers to come in and look at the vehicle and sell...

    Tesla tinkering with our cars, legality issues.

    The recent controversy regarding the battery capacity trim job by tesla got me thinking about the legality of tesla being able to adjust your cars as they see fit. My thought is what stops them from limiting power to reduce wear on the motor? What stops them from reducing the battery capacity...

    Returned our lease yesterday!

    Nearly 30k miles over the allowed mileage. Which is fine, the car turned out to be a lot more fun to drive than originally anticipated. Originally I planned on buying it out, but the Raven update derailed those plans. Now the wait for a Long Range Model s begins! Vin ends with 114030, gonna...

    Someone backed into my car. 2500 bucks to repair it

    The parking sensor sized gash and bumper is now misaligned on the other side Got a quote from a Tesla certified shop for 2500 bucks. They said the bumper needs to be replaced. Should I even bother trying non certified shops? Since tesla won’t sell them a bumper.

    Neat trick to pass on unlimited supercharging to the next owner

    Tesla needs to refresh the Model S, asap.

    Although the drop in model S/X demand can be attributed to buyers opting for the model 3. I think it’s buyers who are waiting for a refresh. Besides the front fascia update and slight rear bumper difference along with seat changes, the model s is very much like the 2012 model I think there are...

    Should Tesla make a “Track Edition” Roadster?

    Smaller battery with additional weight savings throughout the vehicle Personally I’d like more range, MORE MORE MORE! But I can see why some people don’t need a lot of range and would rather have better vehicle performance on a race track

    Are the urban superchargers less efficient than regular ones?

    For larger sites 20+ stalls, wouldn’t the regular load sharing superchargers be more efficient in serving more cars? The odds of 10 empty vehicles showing up at once and using up most of the available capacity are low. So you can have cars coming in and charging at a higher rate and leaving...
