    The “Tesla” wave. Is there such a thing?

    Once upon a time many years and far fewer Tesla's around there was:

    FS: 21" Staggered Model S Grey Turbine Wheels w/ Tires SoCal

    I have 4 21" Grey Turbines in perfect condition (no curb rash or scrapes of any kind on any wheel) with Michelin Pilot Super Sport's on them. The tires vary between 4-6mm remaining tread. TPMS (gen2) included as well as a set of brand new grey center caps. I'd really prefer local pickup, I...

    Improved supercharging time

    I supercharged late last week after getting .12.1 and saw it hit 142kw in my 12/16 build P100D.

    creaking in front end, Warranty expires in 104 miles, but service center is 200 miles away

    I believe as long as you report the problem prior to warranty expiration it will be covered. My other half also agrees with this and worked for Tesla service for a couple years.

    Top 10 Superchargers based on Tesla screen at Kettleman City and other locations

    I was at both locations in the afternoon as well as after 10pm at night. Despite that as they are showing usage from the past 24 hours, I wouldn't expect spc busy times of day to impact it as it would all even out over that time period.

    Top 10 Superchargers based on Tesla screen at Kettleman City and other locations

    I noticed something during a road trip in July to Monterey (whose lobby also has this display) Having charged a few times at Monterey and looking at their monitor, Fountain Valley (always very busy, 16 stalls) was consistently on the top 10, yet both stops at Kettleman on the way up and back...

    Front wheel sizes, will they fit?

    I recently picked up 4 new arachnids for my car and I noticed they are all 21x9.0 size. Can anyone tell me, are these going to fit on the front of my P100D if I put some 245 pilot super Sports on them or do I need to track down some 8.5s? Thanks

    How often to people try to race you?

    Back when Tesla's were not as common around here, I had other cars attempting to race me *constantly*, probably 90% of them driving BMW's. I confess if the conditions are suited for it I will oblige, and it nearly always results the same way with them in my rear view ;) I lost just once in...

    How to play music from within the MS while washing or working outside of the car?

    Turning on range mode will turn the DRLs off, I had the DRL button on my original P85 but not on the P100D and this is what works. I'd rather still have the DRL button, no idea why they did it this way.

    San Diego based car washes/detailers

    To add to that and my previous reply here. The person I recommended, Jason, was an owner of Elite Finish Detailing with Wes. Awhile back they decided to go their seperate ways (I have no details on reasons) and Wes purchased his half of the business from him. While Jason was normally the one...

    What's my 2014 P85 worth? 84k miles

    I recently sold my 2013 P85 with 85k miles on it. At time of purchase (3/13) it had every option minus the rear facing seats and the dual chargers. I also had the extended warranty giving the new owner 15k miles of warranty time left. The car was in amazing condition inside and out. I looked...

    Minor accident, 20 percent fault?

    I have actually spoken with and gotten estimates from 2 body shops, they both fell in the 7-8k range. I'll post the relevant pieces of the estimates later today, just about to put a deposit down for M3 :)
