Wife tells me this weekend, her S40 is making a noise. It is definitely something with the half shaft at 53k miles. Disappointing that the part is $900, there is no aftermarket source, and I have no access to a service manual. I fix this type of thing myself on my other vehicles and would...

x2 on RimPro. I purchased some wheels on clearance from Bavarian Auto and one of them was not quite perfect. I was in and out of Rimpro in 30 minutes and no complaints. $164 to true a 19" rim, remount and balance. Rim Pro Inc. - Expert Alloy Wheel Repair & Refinishing

I heard this week that Kittery, ME is on the list for a SC. No idea on timeline but it is on Tesla's radar. Guessing at this point, but it will most likely be at the outlets.

I looked into this option in 2012 before my car arrived and was disappointed that the math did not come out any cheaper for 1500 miles/month. For one thing, this rate required a second meter to be installed. So, you end up paying $12 for your regular meter and then $25/month for the second...

Totally agree! How about when you are tired of fighting with the spouse over whose 'Tesla' day it is.... you both find common ground and just order another Tesla.

I was at Dedham yesterday, and they stated that only 2 Model X's have been delivered.

One of my coworkers came in this morning and said the stations are lit up. They might be working.

The Port Inn Portsmouth - New Hampshire - United States Just added two Tesla destination chargers and one J1772. Located off the Portsmouth circle first traffic light past the Chevrolet dealer on Route 1 South. The owner is a big fan and has hosted Tesla test drives in the past. As of this...

We're also working on getting more of the area hotels to install destination chargers so there will be plenty for all that attend the drive. I've had positive feedback from a number of properties and have connected them all with Tesla to take the next steps. Omni Mount Washington is on that...

Awesome, nailed it! This is the final incentive I need to upgrade my car. 140 miles has worked brilliantly for my needs even in this past -8F winter, but time to unlock the range and add the supercharger. I work in Seabrook, so this construction will be easy for me to keep an eye on. BTW...

I think I got this. Seabrook has undergone a renovation with a new shopping center and Wal-Mart. The state just improved Exit 1 so that there was better accessibility to this new development. The development is called Seabrook Commons and is run by a company called DDR. DDR already has a...

I would consider the possibility of this Supercharger going in NORTH of the border.

Here is one CHAdeMO which I have seen in person. Located in Portland, ME. Look around the map in plugshare for the orange stations. Fore Street Garage | Portland, ME | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare

This definitely now seems worth the effort. Also, I am right on the fence for upgrading to 60kw and adding superchargers. My conundrum now is whether to upgrade this car at $14k or just sell and order a new one. Tesla rep has told me there are only twenty 40kw car remaining in the fleet, so it...
