Common courtesy from your friends would be for them to offer to pay for the use of your electricity. They should be grateful. Then it would be up to you if you wanted to refuse their offer or not. When I have visited extended family in the past where I needed to charge to get to my next...

If a location address is in your phone's contacts, you can select the contact from the phone screen in the car, and it allows you to navigate to the addresses tied to that contact.

Be prepared to spend a lot more money on tires. I get about 18,000 to 20,000 miles on them. Since I drive 30,000 miles a year, I go through my 21's every 9 to 10 months.

Wow. Sweet. It keeps getting better and better!

OP, if you don't want the car to sound an alarm when the car is locked and a door is opened, you can turn the alarm feature off in the settings section on the center screen.

I like ye ole' dash. Granted, its a personal choice. Some like it, some don't. To me, it's the ONE GOOD THING that the classic cars have that the AP1 and AP2 cars don't have. Oh, and a couple cancelled colors (brown and green). So two good things. Or would that be counted as three? :confused:

I've charged at several camping sites with no problems. One of those times we actually camped at the site, so it was very convenient to charge up overnight. Just like at home :). The other times we were just passing through and needed a charge. I had a to pay a small fee to use the camp...

When you attempt to lock the car (pushing the top of the FOB once), and a door is ajar as in the OP's situation, the car will chime 3 times loudly. Of course, if you just use the walk-away lock feature, you may not hear the chimes. But that is one way the car tries to tell you that there is an...

Just sick. Really sick how someone would think doing such a horrible thing was okay. Going after a young, innocent child. And now she's the victim. Yep, glad the sponsors dropped her. Hopefully others out there thinking of doing similar gestures (e.g. Colbert) will stop and think before they...

That looks like a NEMA 10-50 connector. According to the NEMA connector guide at NEMA connector - Wikipedia. I have a 10-30 clothes dryer adapter that I no longer use, so Tesla may have manufactured one at some point, but a quick look at their shop site doesn't show such an adapter for the...

I have the pano roof, and just recently had the issue of rain seeping into the right rear portion of the non-moving glass portion. This is the portion right above the rear seats. I would get that smell every time it rained - a mildew odor. A quick airing out of the car would remove the odor. It...

125,000 on mine. We'll probably take it north of 300,000 I bet.

Tesla's internet uses the AT&T cell service. There are definitely areas in Los Angeles where my signal cuts out too. Every 15-20 minutes sounds about right. About 50% of the time, Tune-in will reconnect, and pick up where it dropped off - it must cache the stream on the internal hard drive. The...

First of all - Welcome! As you've probably heard before - once you do the test drive, there's no going back :D We've had ours for more than 4 years now. And still, every time we get in the car, we say "We Love This Car!!". So I'm not sure when that sentiment or smile will wear off, but it has...
