We have a NEW IN BOX, RED REFRESH FASCIA Founder's Edition Radio Flyer Tesla Model S for Kids ready for PICK UP in West Los Angeles. It has already delivered, so there's no waiting months on back order for it to arrive for the holidays (new orders will arrive well after!). Box has been unopened...

Larry - hope you, Mary Ellen, and all in FL are staying safe. When we moved to CA, thought trading hurricanes for earthquakes was not a very good deal. At least with hurricanes you get some warning. But not so sure anymore. Please keep us posted on how you fare once Irma passes. Jeff

Took the trade. Should be on the CPO list soon. Someone will get a really clean, low mileage, relatively low VIN Model S with a full warranty. The should enjoy it as much as I did.

Photos taken this AM. Tech package in that era included self-presenting door handles, electric hatchback, footwell and door handle lighting, turning lights, puddle lights, heated seats, navigation. Don't recall if there is anything else. Predates any sensors and motorized side mirrors (can be...

The car that I told my then 21 year old son he could drive when he inherits it is no longer going to be his. My wife, whose become the primary driver since we moved to CA and are down to one car has decided she has to have an X because it's too hard to get our 17 month old grandchild into a...

Does anyone have any experience with insurance by Metromile? My quote for my 2013 S was around $60/month, + 9.4 cents/mile. A savings of at least $700 over my current State Farm. Driving less than 5K miles/year since moving to CA. Wife insists she has to have an X now that she's the primary...

Don't know if this may have been addressed in another thread, if so, sorry. The $1000 owner credits from the prior referral program expire December 31. I had not signed onto My Tesla for several months, and never received e-mail notification from Tesla about this. My son-in-law alerted me...

Just used this new waterless carwash service. Car looks great and no more nightime glare from dirty rear window. Squeegy - The Car Wash That Comes To You

Moved to LA from FL about a month ago. Without the daily thunderstorms, my Model S is looking pretty grungy. I've been using the Xpel rinseless product as I have a full wrap. Two buckets and less than 5 gallons of water total, but I suspect condo rules will prevent me from even doing that in...

Finally, just as I'm leaving ... Will have to swing by anyway.

Orlando-area doctors visit Suns game on first stop of cross-country journey for mens health | jacksonville.com www.driveformenshealth.com I don't think this made it to the Forum yet. No local publicity in advance, so I missed seeing them.

My wife - who goes to Seaside a couple times a year on business - says no way in our 85S. But she gets anxious when I drop below 50 miles rates range. Perhaps stop for a meal in Tallahassee & pick up a 30 mile buffer at the Sheraton or from someone on the FL Charging Network (if you've joined).

Jax is a little far to go for a look-see, but I've been very happy with the heat reduction and appearance with Photosync. Only caveat, when headed directly into bright sun and wearing polarized sunglasses, there is a slight pink/purple color shift of green foliage. Some photos of my Pearl...

Thanks for the suggestions & alternatives - which I am exploring. Several friends & two sisters have volunteered to make the trek. Perhaps... Sort of defeats the purpose if its the journey/marking a life transition rather than the destination that is most significant.

It has been some time since the NE FL owners have gotten together, and there are now many more of us. I will be moving to CA later this summer, and since am 'retired' for the next couple of months, have the time to try to arrange a NE FL gathering before we leave, if there is sufficient...
