    Deteriorating Range P90DL

    Wow. Is that really how bad it is with a 90D, even in good weather?

    What's it really like to own a Tesla in New England?

    No, they specifically said that the first time I would see it would be when I sign the paperwork.

    What's it really like to own a Tesla in New England?

    So I went tire kicking in Dedham on a work trip and inquired about a used Model X that was at that location. I had heard that they are actually stored off site and this turned out to be true. So I was unable to even look at the car, let alone get a test drive. I was told that the first time I...

    First Cold after storm day, frozen window from a snow flurry, disabled suspension

    I don't have advice but I wish I did (other than scream at Tesla to frame the effing windows)! This is one of the things that holds be back from getting a Tesla. I have a garage but obviously drive to locations without a garage and this is such a common occurrence, some precipitation freezes...

    Tesla quality control may cost Tesla its lead in the EV market

    While I do think the QC isn't top notch, I think that a lot of poor engineering choices are what has killed the service/reliability of these cars. I would love to know the numbers but I feel like these few things alone contribute to a lot of the headaches: Non-framed windows Electronic door...

    How does the BMS treat the 60D with nerfing and degredation?

    So the 60D is actually a 75D right? So Charging to 100% every day should be fine correct? With battery/charge gate going on with nerfed batteries, and people losing range from regular battery degredation, will the BMS keep allotting more battery to keep the 60D at 200 miles of range, or...

    Made a couple small changes to the Cybertruck. Thoughts?

    This is sort of what I meant. Looks better as an SUV to me:

    Made a couple small changes to the Cybertruck. Thoughts?

    Forgive my sins of MS Paint, but can someone with actual photoshop skills render this roofline as an SUV with another panel of glass in the back? I think this would look much better.

    Windows framed or not?

    Polarizing design aside, did I see non framed windows again? Please tell me they are framed. Your tough cybertruck won't look so tough when you are fumbling around trying to open or close the doors in the winter.

    Is there anything on the Mach-E that you liked BETTER than your Tesla?

    Framed windows!!!! Booo electronic latches, no door handles, and self presenting garbage.

    What's it really like to own a Tesla in New England?

    Thanks for all the contributions in this thread! I am going to continue to sit on the fence for now. With these cold and wet/snizzly/snowing mornings, I can't imaging messing around with non framed windows and those door handles. I also think the 2 hours to Dedham/Watertown would drive me...

    I really want to love my MX but...

    Yeah, I am sure it is great if you have a garage everywhere you park and can plan your trips 30 minutes in advance but for the rest of us, the door and handle designs from Tesla are clearly designed in the California bubble.

    I really want to love my MX but...

    Unfortunately all of the door issues could have been solved by using framed windows like everyone else and regular door handles (and perhaps getting rid of electronic latches too). This is one of the major issues preventing me from pulling the trigger on a Tesla (and the service). I really...

    What's it really like to own a Tesla in New England?

    I really appreciate the replies on both sides of the fence. I am going to postpone any vehicle purchase and see how things shake out over the next year. The horrible service stories seem to keep creeping up so I would like to hear about this improving before I purchase a Tesla. I know other...

    Maine EV rebate

    Why is there an "eligibility list"? Shouldn't it include all EV/PHEV?
