    Ludicrous Tesla Factory Experience 7/21/17..

    My girlfriend and I (Mei Ling and Bill) sat next to you at the Ludicrous event, didn't realize you were THE Bonnie. Glad to have met you!

    Supercharger - Dublin, CA - Amador Plaza (LIVE, 14 V2 stalls)

    Perhaps it's the wisest short term solution but apparently it wasn't obvious. What's obvious to me is that Tesla should hire some of the posters on this site. But sorry, Elon, you can't afford me. ;)

    Improved Trunk lighting - Is there demand?

    I just put in 12 new plug-in LEDs in my 2017 MS. I had help. Some of the positions you need to get in to requires more flexibility than I have at my age. Plus, IMO, some of the lights cannot be removed with the spudger or whatever it's called. You're likely going to have to use a small...

    FIRMWARE UPDATE! AP2 Local road driving...and holy crap

    I think what would make my driving experience better is for Elon to throw those of us who serve as guinea pigs some kind of bone. Most of us who bought AP2 had experienced AP1 and have been surprised at the "improvement". Discount on future purchases, warranty extension, free ranger service...

    FIRMWARE UPDATE! AP2 Local road driving...and holy crap

    And the winner for Best AutoPilot is: Tesla Motors AP2! And here to accept the award is Elon Musk. "I want to thank all of you for your support, I feel vindicated given all the negative comments about our latest AP version..." Wait, I'm sorry Elon, apparently some TMC forum member switched...

    FIRMWARE UPDATE! AP2 Local road driving...and holy crap

    Has Andyw2100 weighed in on this yet? He seemed to have gotten Elon's attention on the "691 hp" issue. I'd lend him my HW2-equipped car so he could flame about it, but I think he's on the opposite coast. And Jdel, wtf? Only 3 posts and you're already making the rest of us feel like we need...

    FIRMWARE UPDATE! AP2 Local road driving...and holy crap

    It could have been worse, a lot worse. You could've spent two hours listening to mis/disinformation from Tesla representatives on this subject. For example, how often do you think they would use the word "heuristics"? Almighty Elon, grant me the strength to deal with your employees.

    And I'm sure you know why I got obsidian black.

    FIRMWARE UPDATE! AP2 Local road driving...and holy crap

    I was neither smart enough nor did enough research to realize that AP2 was going to be essentially useless to me for the first x number of weeks, months or years of ownership. So, that's on me. But here's where I start whining: None of the half-dozen or so Tesla representatives I've talked to...

    Wind noise in full glass roof new Model S

    I thought I was being selfish buying this car, Sir...turns out I'm serving others by helping de-bug their future Tesla.

    Wind noise in full glass roof new Model S

    Just got a new P100D with glass roof, and the wind noise at freeway speed is annoying. My P85+ had a pano roof and I had no noticeable wind noise.

    Took delivery today. Questions on the software update and wind noise

    In my P85+ with sunroof I didn't notice wind noise on the freeway but in my new P100D with the glass roof it's significant...annoying.

    Model S 90D vs P100D - Which to buy?

    I got the P100D because in my area I'm surrounded by Teslas, but I almost never see one like mine. I think the car is overpriced, but I feel less insecure now. A plus for you should be that your AP will work right away, whereas my "cameras are calibrating" and have been for 2 weeks.

    Model 3 Ludicrous 2.0 seconds flat?!!

    Tsla007: Yes, apparently I've just bought a rather expensive potential blackout machine. About one second of Ludicrous+ launch is all I can handle so far. Good thing there's that "I want my Mommy" button.

    Chrome delete is looking good, think I'll go for that, thanks.
