    Something strange happened to the large center screen in my MS and the driver's screen

    Pictures are helpful. Have a look. This is a late 2015 Model S, with 59k miles and lots of time in a warm So Cal garage. At first, it looked like a thin line going across the center screen, but a closer look showed that it was closer to the driver's screen. Apologies if this has been talked...

    What battery percentage to charge to on trips?

    Is there any way to find out if a supercharger is down or degraded before starting your trip? This happened to me and if I had known, I could have rerouted and saved time. Cheers!

    Suggested improvement to phone app for Supercharging

    If the "A" stalls are full and the cars are empty, what's your strategy for picking a "B" stall? Some of the "A" cars could be mostly finished charging and some could be just starting. If you pair with one that is just starting then you'll have to wait. I'd rather get the information from the...

    Still worth getting a Model 3 if Electricity costs more than Gas?

    I live in San Diego and have solar with TOU pricing. SDGE is expensive. I set the car to start charging at 10 PM. That's enough time to fully charge with my 50 amp circuit. I have a friend with an EV who has a separate meter. This gets him cheaper electricity than TOU's cheapest tier. Cheers!

    Picking the best stall at a crowded supercharger

    If a supercharger is crowded, I'd like the car to recommend the best stall to use! I know this information is available because I called support and asked for it. I ended up staying in the stall I picked because the partner was almost at the point of getting less energy. I saw another car try...
