    Got in accident and at-fault insurance company denies claim

    So sorry this happened--we've had 4 not our fault claims with our Model 3's and it's a pain in the behind to deal with this stuff. Work with your insurance company to handle this. On DV, we've had two situations. If the other insurance company makes no offer, in Oregon we can then work...

    Funniest Tesla Question Thread

    We love talking about the cars anytime, starting with our first LEAF and now Teslas. We like to think there are no dumb questions as well and take the chance to educate and get people excited about EVs whenever possible, even letting them drive. Having said that... Where's the dipstick? (I'm...

    My 3 was hit by a teenager; what can/should be claimed for this damage?

    You should get repairs, rental car expenses, and go after diminished value. You may be surprised how high these figures are. I hired an expert appraiser for the diminished value part and that fee was not recoverable. Progressive was the insurance company for the person who caused the...

    Inherent Diminished Value Settlement (Oregon)

    Your timing is perfect and glad to hear the results. My Model 3 got hit twice in parking lots, both at fault drivers were insured. Working with David at Auto Damage Experts also because it is impossible to get information on the car value by yourself. Artistic Auto Body folks have become very...

    Well, now you know people. You'll have to make another stop in Lincoln Beach for breakfast....or dinner... Great update, Otter! We're going to head to Crescent City to see brother before long but it may be before this station is done.

    Supercharger - Lincoln City, OR

    Stopped by today, no other cars plugged in. We're getting good interaction and questions about EVs from passersby who are curious. UPS man stopped by to say be careful parking in 1A and 1B. Apparently somebody backed into the yellow posts around the mall sign behind those spaces. Have to...

    We and Otter plugged in tonight. Charging rate seemed a bit slower to me than other stations but it's up and running.

    Hooray! Tesla tech arrived a little after noon and we caught him there. He said his work would be done by end of the day and then it would be 8 hours or so for the supercharger to show up officially on the map.

    Since her husband is a coworker, my husband has already planned to offer her a test drive in the MS. It was great her husband corrected her and told her she was wrong about EVs. Sometimes you don't know if the message gets through--glad to hear when it does.

    Minions or no, hopeful about security. When we've stopped a few times I've seen the security guy watching from around the corner by the office. One of my husband's coworkers noticed the construction. His wife sniped it was not needed to have so many charging stations--nobody owns electric...

    Drove by today and the parking signs are up. First 4 stalls from the entry are shared 30 minute or charging parking. Last 4 are Tesla charging only parking. We'll see how this works on a busy mall day. Stations no longer covered in plastic but row of orange cones is still in place.
