    Likely buying used: Differences to be aware of

    Personally I'd go the other way. I'd rather have a barebones, newer, smaller capacity model with autopilot than a loaded non-AP model. Autopilot is a game changer on those long highway trips, as in my experience you end up less tired at the end, and I don't mind stopping for supercharging and a...

    Model S: Overwhelmingly male and over 45 years old/Model 3 Don't Die

    39 and male here, so not too far off the stereotype. I work in tech and am fairly eco-conscious and design-aware, so I hit those, too. We keep our cars a long time, so my S85D replaced an '04 Z4, and the model 3 on order will probably replace an '01 RSX.

    Tesla Habits ---- argh!

    I had two of those moments the other day with a rental ICE. It was probably compounded by the rental having the kind of fob you can keep in your pocket, but I managed to both forget to lock the car when going sightseeing for hours, and to forget to turn off the car while stopping to get gas...

If there were...

    70D stuck in production?

    That's good to hear, as is the possibility of more thorough QA. I'm in almost exactly the same situation as alexrov above, and am waiting on tenterhooks for a call from my DS clearing my new shiny for delivery. Good luck to us all.

    Important terminology question - what are we going to call the ludicrous P90D

    Seconded! If I were to have a P90DL I'd be very entertained by a well-matched aftermarket plaid "L". But I'm not about to have one. :)

    Upset with lack of communication

    Perversely, I'm a little relieved to know it's not just me. I'm also waiting on an 85D that has been "in production" for about a month, with roughly the same timeline, and the communication has been underwhelming. My original delivery estimate was Late June, and is now July, and after...
