    Energy app needs longer vertical scale...

    I'd like the graph to scale accordingly to the highest peaks and valleys you have. Showing a static -300 to +900 isn't useful if most of my driving is between 200 and 600. Would be great to have more granularity about my current driving. Just knowing that I'm doing better/worse than rated by...

    Underwhelmed by the technology

    Just drive with the backup camera on all the time in the upper portion of the display. That'll desensitize you. :biggrin:

    High Power Wall Charger - Tesla recommends temporarily cutting amps

    I just got my update to 4.3 (had 4.2 since I picked up at the factory about a month ago). Set the scheduled charge. Once I plugged the HPWC in, I noticed that my charge rate was dialed back to 60A. Once I tried to increase it, I got a pop-up window with the notice, and a link to the website...

    Firmware 4.3 - basic charging scheduling

    Got my update this morning, and updated at work. I can finally remove the 12:05AM daily alarm I setup on my iPhone to remember to charge the car. When I plugged my HPWC in, I also got a notice about limiting the charge to 60A (the default charge amp actually changed from 80 to 60 once I...

    Mine looks the same as the photo from the first post in this thread, minus the wear and tear. P05718.

    Rear jump seats

    Thanks, I'll give that a shot. I'm still getting used to where everything is in the controls menu, so sometimes it takes me a bit of time to reorient myself. And since I drop my son off at the school curb in a drive-thru fashion, time is of the essence. Last thing I need is some soccer mom...

    3G Pricing - Speculation

    Out of curiosity, I looked up the Mercedes mbrace system. $280/year, plus $28/month to get all the bells and whistles including in car internet yadda yadda yadda. Basically, you are buying your car a phone line (looks like it has a concierge service as part of the plan). That's over...

    Rear jump seats

    I put my 2.5 year old daughter back there as well, even though she's slightly below both the height and weight requirement. Luckily the shoulder straps have lots of room to move, so it seems to work fine. My only complaint about the seats is that they are very upright. It's not easy for them...

    Firmware 4.3 - basic charging scheduling

    Still waiting for v4.3 (getting tired of waiting up until midnight to plug in, but I've been getting lots of Tiger Woods 2014 time in on the Xbox), but I have a question on the scheduled charging. After scheduled charging is set, is it smart enough to know not to charge any other time? My...

    artsci's Model S modifications

    I used Glare polish. See artsci's post on his testing of different polishes. :) However, if you are planning on getting PPF applied, I'm pretty sure most shops will polish and wax it themselves before applying the film. Premier did this for me. There were some scratches in the clear coat...

    artsci's Model S modifications

    Got the car back on Wednesday, and the PPF and tint job turned out awesome. When I went to pick up, there was a white Model S in to have work done as well. Paint protection film on everything that is painted, as well as the headlamps and nosecone. They rolled the film under the hood and body...

    When to rotate tires? @annual inspection/12,500 or sooner? Who is doing it?

    Does anybody know if the black lugnuts are black all the way through? Or are they painted? If they are painted, does anybody have a recommendation on a socket with a "soft" liner on the inside? Would be pretty silly to have the gray wheels and see bits of shiny metal on the bolts if they...

    Bluetooth

    Ok, I take back what I said before. I must have just either had a good connection or wasn't paying attention enough. Got my car back last night, and had new music cached from Spotify. I did see a delay where just the music icon was shown at first, then I got entirely different album artwork...

    To paint armor, or not to...

    My car is currently at Premier. I'm the first black Model S they've gotten to work on. Agree on the auto porn. There was a McLaren, Lamborghini, 911 Turbo, and a green Model S in the shop when I dropped off a week and a half ago. Can't wait till I get the car back tomorrow!
