    2013 S Roof Rack - where to buy, how to install…

    I have a 2013 Model S with a panoramic sunroof and I cannot figure out whether I can still get a roof rack installed, but we need one for an upcoming trip (to put a box on). It looks like Tesla no longer sells or installs these—is that just because they don’t make the pano sunroof anymore, or...

    Anyone have experience with Bridgestone Quiettrack tires

    I just got my second nail in the front passenger tire in three months and when I had the first repaired at Tesla in late feb., they noted that my front tires are at tread level 4 and I should consider replacing them. (Rears are at 7). I just looked up when I got my 19” Quietracks… May 20, 2020...

    Trading an S in for a 3?

    I've got a CPO S and I love it. I'm wrestling hard with whether to trade it in for a dual motor all wheel drive 3 or not, but I probably can't afford both. I was wondering the same thing about price, because my current loan has such low interest. The problem is that now that I have an S, I'm...

    Dual Motor priority?

    I got my configuration email 2/4 and am waiting on the dual motor as well. My estimator currently says mid-2018.

    Rear Bumper Advice

    Had some scratches on my rear bumper, but was living with them. However, this am I backed into a friend's car... and now there's a decent puncture wound on the bumper. I'm going to swing by an autobody shop tonight but thought I'd ask you pros first. What's the going rate for a replacement...

    HPWC will not latch into charger

    Having trouble with my HPWC/Dual charging 2013 Model S. We've had a cold snap but I'm not sure if that's related (under 32 deg F). I don't ever use anything but the HPWC--if the issue is cold related it would have to be with the onboard inverters or the HPWC nozzle (warning: I am bad with the...

    Randomized Referral!

    That's a great idea--let us know how many you get!

    Randomized Referral!

    Popped mine in there--hoping this is still working :) I didn't ever think I'd get a single referral but a friend ordered and now I'm super greedy for a duffel bag or... gulp... a JACKET!

    Yakima (Whispbar + Skybox 16 Carbonite) roof system

    This is super helpful! I may just take the plunge on that box. I can't believe how roomy the storage is in the S. I almost doubt that the X has any more space. That car looks so happy under those suds :)

    Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

    It is really close to black. I have preschoolers that basically got into an argument with me about the color :) But I love it. It reminds me of open water at night.

    600kw 15 second charge? Yes please.

    UM YES. I am a huge fan and I'm actually not sure why they haven't considered this (if they haven't). Hoping the futurism didn't die with Walt, and a Tesla partnership would be exactly in line with their past operations (partnering with innovating companies). It would also be a really cool...

    Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

    Can't remember if I responded to this so forgive any dupes but mine took the full three weeks-- I reserved 6/28 and got it 7/25 (although I think it was ready on 7/22). They put on new wheels and a new bumper. I know I was SUPER impatient but I think the time they spend adding replacements or...

    Wait time for parts

    So I had this same dilemma with a three week wait time. In the end I ordered the wall charger, and determined that I would fill up at the nearest supercharger (12 miles away) like a gas station in the interim, and 'trickle charge' off of my garage wall outlet or use the dryer outlet (convenient...
