This will be very handy for visits to the Crownpoint rug auctions, and Acoma pueblo. I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks for the report, Budwinvon. It is so sad that the owner's seem to be lacking the vision to entice Tesla owners to their establishment by encouraging people to use the chargers.

The car cover has been spoken for. We have a person and an alternate. Thanks for the interest, best, Jim

We have a never used model X exterior car cover from Tesla which we are willing to give to anyone who can use it. PM me with your address (US or Canada), and we will ship it to you whichever way we find is cheapest. You can send me a check for the postage after you get the cover. You can see...

We also received the email notification (March 2016 build). I'm hoping for a mobile tech visit, but there was no word on that yet. I'm not hugely concerned with this recall, but I'm glad Tesla is addressing the issue.

I'll throw my two cents in here too, hgpayne. I also have an Airstream trailer towed by my 2016 Model X 90D (see my avatar). We used a weight distribution setup with our stock Bosal hitch, and as happened to ohmman, we had two Bosal hitches loosen in their socket when in use. We replaced our...

I'm assuming you will be traveling on Rt. 26. If that is the case, and you get concerned about the distance, there is a free Tesla destination charger for a short top up at the historic Hotel Prairie in Prairie City, Or. It is about 164 miles by car from Bend (so says Siri). I got the info...

We put in our deposit on the long-range version. You can see what we will be towing in my avatar. I'm a bit put off by the design, but I wanted something a bit different, and I think it will grow on me.

We did have an issue with the area just beneath the plug (which is supposed to drain off) getting gunked up, not draining, and creating problems for the lights in the plug receiver. Plug receiver was replaced by mobile tech. We cover the plug with a microfiber cloth now if charging in the...

I tried the pricing when the site first went up and it came up 94% higher than what I currently pay. I tried it again today because I read that they redid their algorithms for pricing. My new quote, which I carefully matched to current coverage deductibles, was much better (but still about 12%...

I just configured one on the Tesla.com website and it says free unlimited supercharging comes with it. Lucky person, you.

I've been watching the new Netflix series "Another Life", a futuristic space adventure with one of my favorite actresses as the lead, Katie Sackhoff. In episode three there was a question in a trivia game being played about the orbital time of the "Elon Musk space station". I thought that was...

Today I attended an incoming student’s orientation day event focused on alternative transportation at Humboldt State University in Arcata, California. As part of the Redwood Coast Energy Authority’s EV enthusiast group, I brought my model X to display. Soon after the picture was taken about...

Yes, ordered from the service center. It came with the rivets. I don't remember how much it was.
