Okay I traded this in to Tesla and ordered a new P85D. Thanks to everyone for your comments.

You should try to trade in in to Tesla. Since you really are buying a new one, they probably will take this as part of that sale. Of course you should have tried that before you placed the new order, but they still are likely to take it.

Yes, they do only use one cup of water to wash the whole car. Tesla in Burlingame recommended that place and they did a good job. Quite remarkable! Brent

Indeed those are Oregon plates, but the car is currently in the Bay Area. Note the street signs in the background.

Okay just for fun I took a couple of pictures while the folks at Eco Green Auto Clean in El Camino Real in Redwood City California were cleaning it. The street signs should be familiar to locals.

Yes, the pictures were taken in beautiful Nelson, BC Canada, but the car is definitely now in San Mateo, California now where I can hear the 101 outside my open door as I write this or look up and see jets flying into SFO. If any of the locals can recommend a great car photographer near San...

Note that I just lowered the price. You can't buy a car like this today from Tesla. You can buy cheaper and slower 0 to 60 cars and more expensive cars and faster cars, but you can't buy a 0 to 60 in 4.2 seconds at all today.

Both of these cords have worked well for me. I think Tesla does not officially recommend using extension cords because the national electric code does not all it. Anyway, there is an extensive and very good post on this site somewhere on the safe use of extension cords. You can buy 240 v...

I'm picking up my Model S on Wednesday and on Friday May 30, 2014, and Saturday May 31, 2014, I want to give as many rides as possible in Eugene Oregon. I'm doing my small part to promote clean air, electric cars, and of course Tesla. This will be at a yet to be determined location near the...

I'm a big fan of Tesla Motors and I pick up my Model S - P85+ on May 28, 2014. I expect to be very happy with it, and I plan to do as much as I possibly can to help Tesla sell more. However to achieve Tesla's stated goal of making a mass market electric car at prices that everyone can afford...

Hello TinaisTina: Drive one and see if you like it. If you like it and you have the money, then definitely go for it. I will assume you are a young woman so let me give you some arguments for you to get a Tesla, in case you need to persuade your parents or others in your family. 1. It's the...
