I was told by someone at a tire place that putting a plug in a tire will void the warranty. Is that true?

You’re right about the whole state, but what about the Windward islands, or even just between Oahu, Molokai and Maui? Those seem like they would be relatively short trips.

With all the steel in the tailgate for the ramp, won’t the lift gate without power be challenging? It seems that it could be 2 or 3 times heavier than a gate without the ramp?

I don’t really understand the word play. I said I’m interested in moving to Hawaii (as in the state). Since the state is made up of several islands, I was saying that rather than the island of Oahu, I was interested in Maui. It’s good that they have mobile tech, but beyond what a mobile tech...

I’m thinking about moving to Hawaii, but not Oahu where the only service center is to my knowledge. What do folks do that live on the other islands when you need service. Do you have to take a ferry over? About how much does it cost? Did any of you ship your Tesla from the mainland when you...

Did anybody suggest you call your local TV station and tell them about your frustration? They might want to run it as a human interest story and that might shame both Costco and the lady. You never know what might happen from there.

I’ve read several sources criticize the difficulty of reaching items toward the front of the truck bed because of the height of the wings. You would normally reach those things from the side of the truck. What do you think of addressing this by providing a slide-out truck bed rather than a...

I suspect you're right. Probably toward end of year. My next Tesla will be the pickup. Would be nice if I could get it before the 4-year warranty on my Model X ends.

We should cool the V3 talk. Tesla has said those are for long distance travel. Gainesville is packed in between Ocala and Lake City. Better candidates would Tifton and Macon, I think.

With the Falcon Wing Door motors and hinges over that middle seat, head room over that position is very limited. I think even a 5'8" person would be uncomfortable there, so the height of the headrest may be irrelevant. I think only a child would be comfortable there. And like you stated, the...

Sorry for the late reply, I forgot to go that time. But today I went and drove all around that end of the shopping center, not just around the Bonefish, and there’s nothing anywhere. And all that area is brand new. It seems that if they were going to build it they would have done it before all...

What intersection? I didn’t even know there was one here. It would make sense, since Tesla has that deal with Wawa. The ones in Live Oak and Jacksonville are at Wawa stations and at least one in Tampa also is

That’s good information. I’ll be in that area of Gainesville today and will take a look. That location has its pluses and minuses. It’s a lot more congested with more traffic almost all the time, but there are more amenities there than on the other side of the interstate.

I don’t know what your logistics are once you get to gville, but remember that the Reitz Union has free charging in their parking lot and it’s free to park for 4 hours if charging. It’s onky level 2, but it might give you some peace of mind margin. And I don’t know that the City is responsible...

Sorry for the late response. That was great input. I’ll plan on that for the future. The trip turned out fine, by the way. Was able to get enough charge in Tifton to make it to Atlanta.
