I am curious why you wouldn't go to Geico, I have had them nearly 20 years and found their service as well as their rates to be everything I could ask for. Because I parked under a tree that decided to cast off a limb, had someone go through a stop sign and hit me, and then had my car stolen at...

I suspect that those who think this announcement was anti-climatic already have their cars and had the means to buy a Model S without stretching their finances. For those of us looking to lease I find this to be a very attractive offer as I believe it is the best of both worlds (leasing &...

I am sorry but I just have to take issue with this statement. I agree that McDonalds is large. I agree that they are fast. But I can't stomach the word food and McDonalds in the same sentence. :biggrin:

In 1992 I got a Lexus LS400. At that time in the NYC area there must have been a billion of them on the road that were white with tan interior. Mine was one. After work one day I went to the garage to pick up my car. The attendant who knew me didn't wait for my ticket, just went and brought my...

49er, I guess you don't live in the NYC area if you think $40,000 bought 10,000 gallens of premium gas over the last couple years. :smile:

Perhaps they could speed up the process if they brought in John Broder as a guest tester.

One of the great things about the Model S diifferent from ICE cars is you can get the performance model with NO penalty in fuel economy.

What happened so far, as much as it might be a real downer, does not qualify the car as a lemon under any lemon law I have heard of. If the problem can't be fixed, or keeps returning once it is, than we're talkin'. As far as I can see, nothing has happened yet to indicate either of those...

Ha ha... That remins me of the billboard Republicans did after Barry Goldwater had been thumped running for President: "How Can 25 Million Americans Be Wrong?":biggrin:

Isn't this jumping the gun, a litte? Oh oh, I just sneezed. Hope I don't get pneumonia and die...let's see where did I put my will.

Hope you don't find yourself wanting to get your licence back two months faster...lol!

By the way who ever wrote the previous Edmonds update said the car had become his favorite of the long-term fleet. It still puzzels me how auto designors can get the complicated engine computers to work every time and still get the "reboot blues" from the rest. I really would like to know.

I expect his next public scuffle will be between himself and the building maintenance head over his claims about temperature in the office.

I am surprised at the number of "tire over inflation on delievery" stories. As Jerry33 points out all cars are shipped with tires over inflated. I can understand getting your vehicle with high tire pressure from a car transport truck, but to have your Model S delivered that way at a store...
