    Plaid Radar Detector install with switched power

    My understanding is that the new model S has a windshield containing a metal oxide that interferes with glass mounted radar detectors. Apparently it reduces the signal significantly. However, there is a location on the lower right portion of the windshield lacking this metal oxide allowing one...

    Model S Delivery Hold Week of July 19 2021

    For whatever its worth, I have had a Plaid for about 1 month and just now got a software update notice. I am wishful thinking for everyone that perhaps this update may be what everyone is waiting for. I hope so.

    The new Suntek Reaction PPF has a ceramic coating built in. I just installed it on my Plaid full coverage for 7K. It has been out for about 4-5 months. It has the best finish I have seen on a wrapped car. I have two others side by side in the same garage. Both have Xpel and cannot compare...

    Yes it’s been out about 4 months or so. It’s slightly more expensive. Nevertheless I will use this on all my future cars. The finish is so lustrous and hydrophobic. Looks like the car just got a nice ceramic coating.

    I just got my Plaid covered with the new Suntek Reaction PPF. It has ceramic coating built into the material. I was a bit skeptical until I saw it completed. It has a higher gloss finish and is extremely smooth relative to either XPEL or the standard Suntek product. Total cost was 7K.

    Hurucan Performante. The Lamborghini handles more precisely of course and the fit and finish are phenomenal but the overall acceleration and performance along with the technology of the Plaid puts in in a different in a different league than anything on the road

    For recent Plaid deliveries I noticed a significant squeak/rattle coming from the interior when driving over minor road imperfections. I just found it it’s the computer screen. If I put my hand on the screen the rattle stops immediately. Taking it in Thursday to have this corrected...

    This makes sense. I thought it was just my battery that had issues.

    Has anyone with a recent Plaid delivery notice a loss in their battery charging capacity? Right after the last software update I notice my 90percent charge capacity dropped from 354 miles to 318. I am not sure what’s going on. Also my battery seems to lose 6-7 miles/ day while just sitting in...

    For those in the San Diego area my new Plaid and I will be at Cars and Coffee tomorrow morning in Rancho Sante Fe from 8-10am. Feel free to stop by and have a close look at this incredible car.

    I considered the stinger package. It’s pretty pricey compared to the ALPriority system.
