If your trade-in is through Tesla, I wouldn't worry about it. I went to CarMax, got my appraisal and then it was 10 weeks until my delivery date and I needed to drive it to Chicago to pick up, so couldn't hit the timeline or the mileage....they told me 100 miles at that time (at least that is...

Looks like Sweetwater just opened!

You've had the car a month and only driven 500 miles? Were you laid up in the hospital for the last 28 days? :-)

So, they picked up the car today. Sad seeing it leave on the flatbed. Collision guys think it is not as bad as it looks. Largely superficial. We'll see. I think the liquid that was leaking out was windshield wiper fluid vs. battery coolant, so that is good. Allstate is coming to the body...

OK, so let's just say its been a bad day. I was traveling in the right hand lane of a three lane road. The two lanes to the left of me were backed up due to an upcoming traffic light where most people turn left. My lane was free flowing. I was traveling down this lane at about 35 miles an...

I have found two circumstances in which the lane change functionality does not seem to work well: 1. Roads that have a significant seam in the concrete between the lanes (i.e. newly laid roads) 2. Roads that have significant sealing of cracks between the lanes My guess is that the AP software...

I just received my car 3 days ago and was experiencing problems with door handles presenting when the fob was in my pocket. What I found was that if my phone was too close to the fob, the car wouldn't find it. Making sure my fob is in one jacket pocket and my phone is in the other resolved the...

Picking up my car tomorrow in Chicago (West Grand Avenue). 85D, Deep blue metallic, body color roof, premium interior, AP, subzero, dual charger). Can't wait to cruise by the gas stations and laugh (although perhaps my emotion should be pity). Wife's car is still an ICE (Camry Hybrid), but...

I requested earliest. Original timeframe was Feb - Early March. Changed to March - Early April when many others had their dates move out as well. DS told me last week that I was scheduled to go into production at the beginning of this week...and Voila! Date is now late February. VIN is 124125.

Woohoo! My Model S went into production today. Ordered 12/28, confirmed 1/1. Delivery timeframe moved from March - Early April to Late February as of today. That might be a little optimistic. Picking up at West Grand Ave, Chicago, so expecting 1-2 weeks transit time. Blue 85D with AP...

When I ordered my 85D in late December, I was told the building that they had identified to be a Tesla Service Center in Indianapolis had fallen through due to issues with the landlord. As of that point, I believe that they were back to the drawing board with respect to finding a location. My...
