    Supercharger - Sulphur Springs, TX

    We were fortunate, my BIL lives in Sulpher Springs and we watched from his property. I didn't need to charge as we were in his garage charging at 12 amps since Sunday evening. We will be driving back to California Friday. You are right, the eclipse was fantastic! Our first time seeing a...

    Supercharger - San Jose, CA - Bernal Road (under construction Jan 2024, 32 stalls)

    Drove by last night and was listening to a piece of heavy equipment running. I went into the Lucky's store and when I came out no more noise. As I was leaving I slowly drove by to see what was going on. They have dug some seriously deep holes where the chargers will be going in. They have...

    Supercharger - El Dorado Hills, CA (LIVE 6 Oct 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    My daughter is the manager of the rates department at SMUD. She finds the rates for PG&E to be ridiculous.

    Supercharger - San Jose, CA - Bernal Road (under construction Jan 2024, 32 stalls)

    This is at the shopping center where I shop at regularly. I will keep an eye out for the construction and keep everyone informed.

    Seat belt recall

    I have a 2018 and have had my driver's side seat belt attachment point on the B pillar come loose to the point of falling off and my seat belt disconnect. I drove straight to the SC and had them look at it. They disassembled the B pillar and reconnected everything and then reassembled the...

    Supercharger - San Jose (South) (permit expired, 10 Superchargers at 5630 Cottle Rd)

    I live near and shop at this Target regularly. There are two reserved parking areas for low/no emission vehicles right in front of Target. Stupid place for it. You can almost never park your EV there for the trucks, SUVs and other non low emission vehicles. BUT, if you continue down along...

    Why Tesla Will Fail

    Honestly this sounds a lot like my company. I work for Darfon, a Taiwanese PV inverter company. We actually make excellent inverters both our microinverters and hybrid inverters. They don't understand why they don't sell much better. What they don't appreciate or possibly value is a better...

    Supercharger - Sulphur Springs, TX

    I am not a current Tesla owner but have 2 Model 3s on reservation. I am visiting from San Jose, CA with family that live in Sulphur Springs. Yesterday we went downtown for lunch and parked next to the SC and walked to Burgerland to eat. I thought I would give a quick review for those wanting...

    Tesla Referral Program

    No. They are bringing on the Model X very soon, this is a way to keep interest in the S while all the excitement goes to the X.

    Over day to decide: change my 85D to 90D?

    I would think that even more than range is longevity. With a 5kWh larger battery your SOC stays higher giving you a longer lived battery. It hasn't been shown that the batteries degrade quickly but in this case longer is better. In addition, it should be able to charge faster at superchargers...

    I'm living proof the Model S is the safest car ever made!

    I have ridden motorcycles for decades, taught MSF classes in California and have trained several riders how to rode with me and the one thing I always stress is that being the first one into the intersection wins you nothing. When the light changes I treat it like a stop sign, left, right, left...
