    Remotely roll down windows?

    What a douche - he doesn’t need to justify himself to you. Maybe it is so he can reach inside to open his door when the shitty quality door handles fail to come out. Maybe he wants to roll the windows up if it looks like rain -or down after it clears up. Anything else you need justified...

    AutoPilot decelerates too abruptly

    It would be nice if we had some sort of way to adjust the deceleration range of the autopilot. For example - if you are manually operating the accellerator and approaching a stopped vehicle you would usually take your foot off the accelerator for a few seconds before applying the brakes...

    March 29th I get to join the club!

    Eddie Vs was splendid. I think we had a new (nervous) waitress and she kept messing up our order. Fortunately we are good tempered people who found it endearing. And we were in a good mood because we just got our TESLA P85D!!!! W000T! It is like a cup of instant coffee in a microwave - any...

    March 29th I get to join the club!

    Thanks for the tip. I've made reservations at Eddie Vs then got tickets to Lowery Park Zoo "Zoominations" event - Zoominations especially seems very appropriate for a first day as a Tesla owner.
