    No supercharging in Bakersfield CA?

    Coming in a few months. :) I was planning a trip in Q2 and wanted to stop IN Bakersfield for an extended break with my old P85 signature series 'slow' charging. Lo and behold I'll get to stop at a swanky new supercharger. I love how the universe DOES revolve around me! LOL! 😇...

    NEMA 14-50 Meltdown

    I smelled the melting plastic in the garage tonight and found the same issue. Leviton 14-50 receptacle installed back in late 2012 when I got the S. But the UMC is the updated grey one. It's awesome that it lasted this long and even more awesome that I caught it before it got worse. I'll get...

    Chevy Bolt - 200 mile range for $30k base price (after incentive)

    I like the design! I had a Scion xB before which I was going to convert to electric. It was such a fun and practical car! I'd even consider trading in my Sig Performance for it if they can deliver...but they probably will miss on the range or price or performance. And more so I see no...

    Minor Rear end damage

    Frick on a stick. I did it again. I had it replaced just last December. Interesting though is that the price I paid at the Sunnyvale center is quite different than the one above at the Fremont facility. It's not as bad as back in December. I pushed it back in and it's barely noticeable.

    Transporting sheet goods

    I need to transport some wood and it's nice to know the dimensions I can carry in the Model S. I have some large projects coming up around the home including kitchen cabinets, a bench seat, and a storage bed. I took rough measurements and figured I could carry 6'x3' (sorry metric folk) sheets...

    Musk's interest in battery companies

    I've heard that Musk is on the board of a battery technology company. Does anybody know what that company may be? I think it would be interesting to discuss the technology those companies are developing.

    Acceleration Whine Caused by gears, not motor

    I, too, noticed it after about a month which would be about 1000 miles or so. Maybe the gears were breaking in and now the oil needs to be changed out? Total guess on my part.

    Door Handles: Auto Presenting *AND* Auto Opening Doors?

    I updated to the latest 4.3 Saturday at the scheduled 2:00AM time. During the day Saturday my drivers door auto opened after I put it in park and the handles presented themselves. Did that twice Saturday. Possible software related? Or just a co-incidence. I've had my car since early November.

    Firmware 4.3 - basic charging scheduling

    The wiper sensitivity was vastly improved from 4.1 to 4.2. They can still improve it some more and in time I'm sure it will improve. If you haven't already politely log your improvement request with them and I'm sure they'll work on it.

    Random Model S sightings

    What a Sunday. Great sunny NorCal day to drive my Sig Red Perf. I saw a grey one on 85 south looking real good from behind all hunkered down. Then an hour later saw a white one in Los Gatos on Blossom Hill. And 30 minutes later a silver one in the same area on Los Gatos Blvd.

    Traction Control/Swaying under Firmware v4.2 ?

    I still have the original software version and I noticed the wagging when flooring it on declining freeway on-ramps. Once I even chirped my tires when going 75 and flooring it.

    Random Model S sightings

    Not really a production Model S but I just spotted it in a picture in the background of this video around the 1:36 mark I know Mike Maloney has is getting one if he hasn't already. He had a roadster till it got in an accident.
