Not as often as my enthusiasm would indicate. For the past 20 years, I've made the round-trip from Houston to South Fork, CO one to three times per year.

So happy to see this! I've owned a Tesla for only 7 months but I feel like I've been waiting 5 years for this SC. I've made the drive from Amarillo to Trinidad just once but going up Raton Pass with less than 5% SoC is a nail-biter. Having an SC in Clayton will make it a much more comfortable...

Excited about this SC! We just drove the Amarillo-Trinidad leg last week on our road-trip from Houston to South Fork, CO in our Model Y. It was the only difficult portion of the trip and we decided to modify our plans to stay at a hotel with a destination charger in Dumas on the northbound...

I didn't physically check, but I assume the message on the website is correct. I can't imagine the county tax office will ignore the county's "stay at home order". I got my registration packet from Tesla today and I will mail it in. I signed everything and added the following to the packet...

I just noticed that my credit card was charged for the time my Model Y was supercharging while I was inspecting the car prior to pickup. It's a very small charge compared to the cost of everything else related to this vehicle, but I would have preferred to have been told that I was paying for...

SparkyTX, thanks for starting this thread. Since buying a Tesla in Texas is such a mysterious and uncertain process, it helps to see the experiences of others. I'm so happy you finally got to take possession of yours! It is visually identical to mine. I'll honk if I see you on the highway...

Took delivery today. The process was easy and stress-free. I spent about 30 minutes looking it over in the North Houston parking lot. There were a few minor blemishes...a few scratches on the aluminum window trim, one of the door hinge bolts looks like it was torqued after it was painted, a...

I got a call at about 2:20pm today from the Houston-North service center confirming my 10am appointment for pick up tomorrow.

Where did you get the center cap and lug covers? I thought the set that Tesla sells is charcoal colored.

Mine was changed too. Appointment was on 6/15 but now says 6/17. I received no notification of the change. The only reason I looked at the appointment on my account was because of posts on this thread. I'm glad you posted or I might have wasted a trip across town. Before I head to the...

VIN: 106XX

About $1100 for 6 mo. I asked for minimal coverage that will meet lender requirements. Policy includes $1k deductibles for collision and other than collision. This is my 4th car on the policy. I have two teenagers (one boy, one girl) on my policy, but both of them are listed as driving this...

My status update for blue exterior / black interior / AWD / 19" wheels / no FSD... It had been a few days with no news from Tesla and since they already have my money and since I'm paying interest and insurance already, I sent an email to the 4 Tesla agents that had been copied on previous...

I agree with you. Yours should be assigned and delivered before mine. If you haven't already done it, take this time to prep your home charging infrastructure and acquire accessories or equipment you may need. Maybe that will help pass the time.

I got a text and an email from Tesla at a little after 9am CDT this morning informing me that a VIN had been assigned. Late last week I checked the account page source code and found nothing, so I suspect all of the updates to my account happened this morning. However, I did not check over the...
