    Fredericksburg VA, Charge your car free and help me!

    All, I had a 2013 P85 that was totaled many months ago. Since then, my High Power Wall Connector has remained mounted and ready to go, but with nothing to charge. I have no notion to replace the car at this time, so I'm going to sell some of the accessories and things I no longer need...

    2013 P85 FS $13k -- totaled

    It appears as if I've struck a deal with wk057. I'm anxious to hear what comes of the car and its parts....

    2013 P85 FS $13k -- totaled

    I strongly considered rebuilding it. I paid for the 100k mile warranty and it has over 14k miles left on it, but I bet Tesla wouldn't honor that warranty if it has a salvage title. I also wonder if they'd honor the 8 year unlimited mile powertrain/battery warranty on the salvage title. Finally...

    2013 P85 FS $13k -- totaled

    If someone rebuilds this car I'd be absolutely interested in buying it back. I had planned to keep this car forever and ever. The cars we're driving right now between the three drivers in our house are our 91 Volvo (bought in 1995 and presently over 250k miles), our '04 Sienna (bought new and...

    2013 P85 FS $13k -- totaled

    The car is rebuildable I think but I would not necessarily advise that. See pictures below. My insurance company has done their appraisal and said that the estimate for repairs is $39k so they are totaling the car. This is the initial estimate and of course there is a high likelihood of...

    Brand new 19" wheels - less than 10 miles - No Longer Available

    If you end up needing to separate these, I'm interested in one wheel only. Thanks!

    Shout out to Tysons Corner SC

    Xenoilphobe, Please describe what you've seen as far as improved performance with the LTE upgrade. The speed issues with our car internet are not as big of a deal as compared to whether we get signal or not. Generally the biggest issue is completely losing the Slacker/Tune-In streaming or map...

    Supercharger - Denver, CO

    On our XC drive, stopped in Denver and two of the spots were ICE'ed. Either that, or this SUV in a Tesla only spot is the new Model X. I'm from the east coast and have never seen a SC spot ICE'ed before, is this common in other areas of the country?

    Supercharger - Green River, UT

    We are on vacation this week in Utah. We will be leaving Bryce Canyon from Ruby's Inn and heading via the scenic route 12 towards the Green River SC (before heading to Moab). The route is about 216 miles. Does anyone have experience driving this route and suggest I rely on an interim charging...

    SuperCharger - Weatherford, OK

    I don't know why it went down but it was a bang sound from their equipment and all of them shut down immediately. Two hours later Tesla had a local flatbed there to tow us to the next charger in Shamrock, Texas.

    Supercharger - St. Charles, MO

    I just did the trip between Effingham and Kansas City due to an unexpected funeral (we live in Virginia). Liz and Dave were lifesavers and we appreciate their assistance so much. I do wish the timing had been a little different, but it was fun to meet fellow Tesla folk who are willing to help...

    Supercharger - St. Charles, MO

    We just got back from a road trip for spring break from Virginia to Cape Cod, all uneventful. That said, yesterday we learned of a death in the family and will load the family back in the car tomorrow morning to drive to Kansas City, KS for a viewing Friday. If this SC happens to open up...

    Supercharger - Milford, CT - Boston Post Road

    Google Maps shows pretty clearly a fence around the service area. That said, the next exit is RIGHT up the road, and in fact mid-way between the service area and the interchange appears to be an open area that isn't fenced and goes to a parking area. Might be just a matter of a 100 yard walk all...
