    Mid range battery available now?

    Burning question here. I haven't taken delivery yet either with white interior. Finger's crossed.

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    Wescom rate is misleading. I just spoke with them and they said the 2.24% rate is only if you meet their Platinum Status Membership which includes using their insurance, direct deposit, savings, checking, debit... Just setting up a savings and checking account would result in a 0.25% discount...

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    It looks like everyone is raising rates in the past week. Tesla pushing my my delivery 2 weeks is going to cost me another grand. Oh well. I will still likely love the car.

    Rear window tint - anyone done it?

    Hey turtlez, can you report or PM me your pics? They don't seem to be working anymore. I just called Mr Tint and will be tinting my wife, neighbor and brother-in-law based on your tint job. Are you still happy with it? Thx!

    Total Mileage Thus Far

    I am at 7k miles at 5.5 months. At 236 miles with a 90% charge. Ave wh/mi is 363. I started at 375 when I first thought to begin monitoring my usage. I think I set the usage pretty high early on with all the demo's for friends and flooring it everywhere I went. P85, 21's with DW tires. First...

    Need Advice re: Driving and Time Management

    +1. I took a 20 mile drive to a coffee shop 1/2 mile away this past Saturday. I now enjoy seeing parts of my town and neighboring towns that I never would visit. There is hidden beauty in side-streets, farm lands, industrial parks and hillsides that I never witnessed nor would have had...

    About to sign on the dotted line with SolarCity...Any advice?

    We almost signed without other bids or research. Now we are standing on the sidelines and waiting. Not so concerned about cost/credits but rather the efficiency and tech. Seems to be improving pretty rapidly and I don't my home saddled with archaic tech (at the time of sale). Plus, they were...

    Can't decide on my color

    my wife picked blue for us. six months later she wishes she chose pearl white. try to see as may as you can on the road. which ever one gives you the most tingles is the winner. based on your reaction to seeing red everywhere (or perception of seeing red everywhere) you are probably wise to...

    Storage recommendations and battery charging while away

    Maybe a silly question, leave it at 50% after a 90% charge or bring the battery below 50% and then set to 50%. My guess is that it doesn't really matter but I just wanted clarification if it made any difference of the pre-vacation charge level.

    Grill Below Arm Rest

    Not to take the thread off topic but that piece is my least favorite of the entire vehicle. Most of the vehicle has great finishes befitting a 6-figure sports car EXCEPT that cowl. When I have my arm resting on the arm rest my hand touches that cowl (when not on the steering wheel of course)...

    So How Much Does It Cost? (my most hated question)

    This was me before the MS. My cars have always been in the $35-45k range. I once thought $60-70k was a crazy sum for me to spend on a car. I suppose the paddy wagon will be here for me soon. My wife and I both love every minute in our MS.

    Alliant Credit Union

    +1 for Jon and USAlliance. Really easy to work with. Funded loans for several of my friends and their Teslas. Noticed he was recently promoted too.

    The Tesla Factory is now building your Model S....what are the process stages ?

    That with a touch of Tesla Psychosis. I fear you will soon be beset with a very bad case of the Tesla Grin as well. No cure has been found to date. Limited research shows extended drives along twisty roads is our only salvation. Stay strong my afflicted brothers and sisters.
