    Anyone have Tesla's actual leasing numbers?

    In a way, this is surprising and in a way it isn't. It is surprising because there are so many lease calculators available and someone knowledgeable about leasing would use one to ensure the numbers given align with the payment given. It is not surprising because Tesla seems to be arrogant...

    Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

    I have the BA Design Works system and I like it. Brody has been great to work with.

    P100D Model S Crazy Lease Deal

    I haven't read all the posts, but I agree with this 100%. The payments are essentially $968.89 when you add ($5k/36). Cap reduction is like pre-paying the monthly payment. A few car companies still do multiple security deposits to lower the money factor. When doing that, you must calculate...

    My M3 vs my MS...the revolution is underway

    I think we (Americans) associate car size with features. I like smaller cars (one reason I thought I would never own a model S), but I also like features. Seems like something is always left off smaller cars. I had an Audi S3 on order when I got my Model S.

    My M3 vs my MS...the revolution is underway

    This may be petty, and I haven’t read all the replies, but I would like previous owners to have free supercharging. It is not that I am at a supercharger every day, or even every week, but I like not paying when I do go. I am sure the costs work out to be much less on a 3, but I like not...

    Tell me why you love your dash cam?

    Thanks for the reply.

    Tell me why you love your dash cam?

    What model and features do most favor? Do most people get the power add ons so it will record with the car is "off" and how does that work on a Tesla? Are instructions in any of the videos mentioned above?

    What is your best Wh/mi achieved?

    OK. What is the trick? I have to drive on the freeway for around 25 miles one way every day and I know that doesn't help. The best I have achieved is while on autopilot. To coast for a long time do most of you have regenerative braking turned down?

    Customer Service is Dead

    Suspension light came on and my car is at the dealer. They got me in next day. Guess what I have? Jaguar. It is what it is. Another car I would never pay for.

    Interior Detailing

    I was hesitant to use ONR at first but I love it for washing. I actually have a bottle sprayer that has ONR in it right now. Does ONR have a shelf life when in a bottle?

    Interior Detailing

    For the interior? I use ONR for the exterior (my car has ceramic coating).

    Interior Detailing

    What are some products Tesla owners use on their interiors? The center console and door armrest are high touch areas so it seems like going with something that is matte overall would have the most visual consistency. It also seems like part of the door may be leather and some vinyl. Do most...

    Customer Service is Dead

    No, it was not a hold it was a charge. They messed up and this shouldn’t have happened. Not sure why you want to be an apologist for them more than they do, but this was NOT a normal situation.

    Update: I got my car back and the young lady in service explained the situation the best she could since it is something Hertz did. The charge is supposed to be removed by midnight or something like that. There wasn’t any arguing or being upset. I talked about it on this forum about 100x more...

    So you ignored the part about appreciating a rental/loaner, but the charge on my card being an issue no matter what huh?
