    Supercharger - Hendersonville, TN

    Was just by there today and, sure enough, absolutely no progress. Wonder what's going on?

    Supercharger - Hendersonville, TN

    Just learned about this. I live in Hendersonville and find this an exceedingly odd place to put a Supercharger. Unless the comments about it being primarily for the apartments turns out to be right? But seriously, how in the hell is there no plan for one in Clarksville yet? I-24 between...

    Sticky nastiness blowing from vents

    Sorry if this is a well known issue but I couldn't quite find this issue / know how to search for it. My 2013 Model S has recently started occasionally blowing out what I can only describe as sticky nastiness from the front air vents (see badly focused image, below). It doesn't happen all...

    Dear God, what is this thing?

    Holy crap, I hadn't even noticed this yet. Well, that's going to be annoying in the winter.... Pics that I should have included in first post: Moved volume control! (And boy, do I need to do a deep clean - ugh, sorry). Tiny fonts! Weirdo new HVAC controls with hidden seat warmer...

    Dear God, what is this thing?

    I've had my Model S for almost 10 years now and I've gone from Tesla fanatic to happy but uninvolved car owner. Translation: I still love my S, but I don't pay super close attention to all things Tesla anymore. A week or two ago it got a software update. No big deal, I thought, happens all the...

    Supercharger - Chattanooga, TN

    I'm incredibly glad to see that they've opened a Supercharger in Kimball on the west side of Chattanooga. Having to backtrack to, of all places, the airport while driving to Atlanta was a pain in the ass. And the airport was ALWAYS an objectively terrible place to put a Supercharger. It got to...

    Does Pearl White issues still exits?

    Man, I'm either blind or nowhere near as picky as you guys. I just spent a couple of minutes staring at these pics and have no idea what you're seeing that's out of alignment. Not saying you're wrong, just that I'm not seeing it. Legitimately, can you point out what I should be seeing here? I...

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    SOME reliability issues? By two new batteries, do you mean the 12v battery, or the full pack? Cause, damn!

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    At the risk of getting terribly off topic... "Right!?!??!" I was SHOCKED at the state of the loaner vehicle I picked up this weekend. It was filthy inside and out. There were A LOT of dead grass clippings on all of the floor mats front and rear. The dash screen was delaminating. We found...

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    Nice. ;-) I've used the hell out of the frunk on my MS. There have been several times when we've had the entire vehicle loaded up with people and/or cargo and the frunk turned out to be a life-saver. Not to mention that little cubby in the back is perfect for transporting and keeping dishes...

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    Hey, @Gizmotoy. I remember reading your posts back in '13 when I first got my car. Long time no see. ;-) Will be very interested to hear your thoughts on your new MY. Please make sure to let us know what you think!

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    Hadn't thought about the supercharging not being free anymore. But given the pandemic I haven't supercharged since Feb. of this year and even then it was rarely more than the occasional trip down to Atlanta to visit friends. I assume it would still be cheaper than gas, but will have to look up...

    Any movers from model s to model y. Anything you regret?

    I'm glad I found this thread - I almost posted the exact same question! I've got a pre-AP 2013 Model S that's just a few months away from the end of its extended warranty. While it's generally been an outstanding vehicle - the best I've ever had - it's had plenty of issues. It's on its third...

    Supercharger - Manchester, TN

    As an update, I think this is what's happening to me, too. When we got to both Chattanooga and Atlanta, I found that I had to plug and re-plug up to 5 times to get anything other than an immediate red light. Eventually it would start charging, give me a green light, and charge as normal, so it...

    Supercharger - Manchester, TN

    At the Manchester supercharger now on way to Atlanta and had to try 3 different chargers before I found one that would work! Very concerning, especially with the wife and kids along. Tried calling Tesla to alert them but the phone system said I’d be on hold for 20+ minutes! Here’s hoping...
