    Happy Birthday to me... it's a P90D

    Pete, The difference between P90DL and P85D is after 30mph. They are identical until 30mph. There is no additional G force with the P90DL. However the duration of the G force is longer. Listen from 19:34 to 21:17. Tesla Motors Ludicrous Mode Press Conference (Audio) 2015-07-17 - YouTube In...

    Happy Birthday to me... it's a P90D

    I agree. The new setting is very interesting. I started a new topic. Pete I hope you don't mind me reusing those photos about that new setting. Max Battery Power setting in P90DL

    Max Battery Power setting in P90DL

    Today somebody posted a few pictures of their new P90DL here. Some of the pictures show a new setting called "Max Battery Power". I think that's something new. The explanation in the second image is interesting.

    Supercharger Etiquette

    If a supercharger is in front of a hotel or inside a hotel car park, I wonder if some people would leave their Tesla plugged in overnight at the supercharger (not HPWC). I guess that would be the most inconsiderate behavior.

    Those photos you posted about "Max battery power" are very interesting. I believe that is something new.

    Are you with Musk or Hawking on AI

    Elon seems to take this problem seriously because he has donated a lot of money to AI security research, I believe $10 million. If anybody is interested in Elon's views on AI, I recommend his interview at MIT in Oct 2014. Search for Elon Musk, MIT Centennial Symposium.

    New Tesla Podcast: Introducing RIDE THE LIGHTNING!

    Great show. I wish a moderator would move this topic to a more appropriate section where more people can see it. This is not off topic. I believe the closest forum section would be videos. At least that section is about Tesla related content. We don't put those topics in off topic section either.

    Apple developing their own car?

    On Bloomberg news Betty Liu once asked Elon what he thinks about Apple going into the car business and Elon said that's a great idea and he would encourage them to do so. What a classy response.

    Firmware 7.0 Beta Discussion

    This reminds me of some of the updates to Tesla website. For example finding out that Tesla is selling a singe motor S90 version is very easy. All you have to do is, go to the Tesla order page > select 85D > select single motor > add the $300 battery upgrade. Congratulations, now you have...

    Should I wait to purchase used 85D since Model X release is just a month away?

    I think he means, S60 was discontinued and 70D was introduced in Apr 2015. Also S70, 90D, P90D and Ludicrous mode were introduced in July 2015. I would expect 85 kWh to be discontinued with the MX launch. Then within a year from now I expect 70 and 90 kWh batteries to be replaced with 75 and 95...

    Firmware 7.0 Beta Discussion

    Looking at the pictures Cattledog added (great pictures) I can't stop wondering what the toy car accomplishes in MS versions that don't have autopilot sensors. It can't show what is around you or the lane markings on the road, yet it shows the toy car in the middle. At some point they need to...
