My family just installed a 250v 50A Nema 14-50 socket in their garage, so I can charge when I visit them, and I used it for the first time last night with a UMC and it worked perfectly! I was getting 31 miles/hr. They had their electrician install a lever that can be used to cut the power off...

I live in an apartment building with no opportunity to charge at home so public infrastructure is what i rely on and very fortunate for me there is a chademo station next to a dunkin donuts on my way to work. Even better, there are two chademo stations at a mall 1 mile from my office. I used...

If you used Tesla financing there is already a floor on the used price of your car, so I don't think changing the ESA policy for new customers will change that. It sounds like this will be good for those who already purchased one, they might be able to get more from a private party sale or at...

I live close to Nauna's, they have great pizza :) The owner Tom is a big proponent of EV driving and has been for many years. I wish this station had a chademo port though...

I've been delinquent... I picked up my Metallic Blue S70D last week on Tuesday! Delivery was a fun experience and the car has been a lot of fun. I had Xpel installed on the car the very next morning, so even though I took delivery it did not feel like it until it came home permanently. So far...

Awesome! Congratulations on delivery of your car f-stop, she looks beautiful. Wish you many many happy miles! My car, identical to yours, arrived at the SC yesterday and I'll be taking delivery next week on Tuesday. Have my paint protection install for the very next day. Very excited and...

f-stop, hope you enjoyed your delivery day and new car!! If you take any photos please share if you don't mind. My configuration is *identical* to yours (just no AP) - excellent choices sir ;-) My car has been in complete/in-transt for 9 days. I'm assuming by next week the car will be at...

Congratulations, your cars a beaut! Can't imagine your boys' surprise, cheers and enjoy!

90 miles in 35 minutes is really great. Hoping that rate is what I get on the NRG station that will become my electron oasis :) Too bad about the Leaf driver, maybe they had an emergency or something (like just being rude). There was an EV drive courtesy pack that I read someone made. The...

Thanks for that tips and encouragement! Will be sure to take care with charging and storing my adapter. I'm lucky that 0.4 miles away (10 minute walk) there two J1772 charger away from my apartment and they are open to the public for use. They cost money, $2/hr, but its another option close...

I live in an apartment building and I don't even have parking at the building but close by off-site. Management is great but not interested in installing chargers or even providing any sort of outlet. My office has a plan to install EV chargers as a perk for employees so when that project is...

Hi folks, Does anyone know if using chademo stations to charge takes a toll on the battery, and range, if you use it frequently? I'm going to be relying quite a bit on public charging when I initially receive my MS. Level 2 would make this painful but there's a chademo station a mile from...

Hope you have a wonderful delivery day! How long did transit take for your car? I'm guessing it was moved by rail. My DS told me that their actual expected date is earlier than what they are providing to me in My Tesla, but that it's subject to weather, etc.. so they budget more time to be...

My car moved over to production complete and in transit yesterday (11/19). My DS called me and told me that it was already on a train too and on its way over. Woo-hoo! Still have that mid-December delivery estimate but may show up sooner. Time to order the chademo adapter and talk to xpel...

My car ticked over into production on 11/6 in the evening, however, there's no area in the page where it displays an estimated delivery date. I've seen from screenshots where it's normally displayed, odd it's not there for me. Has anyone else had that issue? In production but a delayed...
