    Snow/Winter Driving

    We have a P85+, P85DL and P100DL. I would not recommend all season tires on the rear wheel drive Teslas.

(This might also have something to do with the improved door sealing). The tint is so dark I doubt glare would ever...

    A flight instructor teaches Tesla Autopilot

    This afternoon, I noticed that holding the AP lever in the full up or down position results in a continuous increase or decrease in set speed. Also, My car, a late December P85D will sometimes increase/decrease by 5mph and sometimes increase/decrease to the nearest 5mph #. I'm not sure if this...

    Comments from Renault-Nissan CEO

    Mr. Ghosn is an Auto industry CEO. His opinions on the future of self driving are suspect. Think of it this way. How much did any top rairoad executives in the twenties understand about commercial aviation? His industry is ill equipped to lead the way to the future. They have outsourced...

    Gas pump interfering with the U.S. Mail

    Charging port Question

    There have been changes to the charge port. The newer ones with the tech package auto close and are able to be manually opened just by pressing the front edge. The non tech ones don't auto close as far as I know and they do not open by pressing the front edge either. I tried a non-tech one built...

    Tesla Should Provide Free CHAdeMO adapters to Businesses Offering Free Charging

    We have a 50kW CHAdeMO/CCS as well as an 80A HPWC and 75A J-1772. They are all free and we have an adaptor available free during business hours. Because we are located just west of Milwaukee off I-94 they are getting used frequently. It probably helps that they are always working too. PlugShare...
