It appears that the factory install is the same as the current optional Model S console and the $1200 retro console is the model X design.

Did you push the panel below the rear facing air vents ? If it is like the X the rear cup holder is a press to release panel below the vents.

You can control fan speed with the scroll wheel on the steering wheel.

I think we both said the same thing. Off means it is always on. Can be a little confusing. Mine sleeps sound also with either setting on or off. I recall having the same problem on the S in the early days then after a few software updates it stayed connected better.

@essmd, Set the AC to foot and face, then the intake under the perforated seats picks up the cool cabin air and vents it thru the seat. AZ driver and really like the perforated seats. Precooling is Painless. It's a battery car. Turn it on and run it anywhere any time. You can even turn on...

Would work better if the bottom 12 inches of the door flopped down and was an entry step. Then the top falcon would be shorter and you would have an integrated step that was also the lower part of the door.

You might check how your energy saving feature is set. Our Model S cars wake up easy so I have this on and always connected. Our Model X cars seem to be sound sleepers so I have it off and always connected. Uses a little more energy but improves car wake up performance. Like all things...

I set mine to auto and then just adjust the temp setting until I am comfortable. The temp setting numbers don't mean much. Just find the number that works. Range mode will significantly reduce AC system performance. With the dual system you can make ice cubes if you want. I live in AZ...

Three Xs unloading at the Scottsdale SC. They said they had three trucks scheduled and were running out of room to park all the new cars. A few more X owners in AZ getting their rides.

Lots of folklore here. I have had two cars tinted and detailed without problem. Also two different video and photo shoots with the doors all left open for long periods of time. I have yet to have a problem that can't be fixed by just opening the door all the way and closing it manually...

A complete shut down or a scroll wheel reboot didn't clear the bug. That's a first.

The FOB has no front door functions buttons other than lock and unlock. The car will open and close the drivers door when the FOB is present in the proper locations.

You can force the doors all you want. The actuators are designed to allow movement. Push and pull.

Personally I kind of laugh at all the stereotype labels. The author came up with the headline and provided the labels. The political parties are like Coke and Pepsi. Both are sugar calories that will kill you if you drink to much.

@Flasher Z, I usually give the base price when asked. In this case they asked how the car was configured. I emailed the invoice so they would have all the configuration info. From that point on it became a 144k car. I would have preferred that the reviewer gave the price range but then in...

Same problem here.

From your list I would pick: Number One, Driver profiles linked to the key fob. A retractable headrest on the second row middle seat. We have a six seat my daughter has a seven seat. Her only comment so far was it would be nice if the center headrest retracted into the seat when the seat was...

The point is simple. It matters little if everyone agrees or even pays enough attention to have an opinion on the matter. Many will be more focused on cat videos on Facebook. If you create a compelling product that solves a problem is it really that important that everyone agree with you or...

Never thought they would transcribe the entire interview. Now you know. When a conservative and a liberal talk about Tesla

Maybe the solution is to build cars people want to own. Then they will buy them because they work rather than because they believe. Same result either way.

Probably built at the same time then held up for reworks. Only bug so far is left falcon does not like to latch closed. Have to give it a gentle push to finish the close.

Separated at birth but now reunited again.

Note to self. Tesla should advertise in computer blogs not car blogs. If they ever need to advertise.

Think how much time you will save by not needing to clean the oil drops off your garage floor everyday.

Everydaydriver added another short video this week. Still trying to wrap their mind around electric power. Change can take time.

Creativity on a back in. Only car there the entire charge.

Plenty of room on a front pull in

These are the people that tinted our Model X. They created a pattern at the Scottsdale store. They can share the pattern with the Irvine store. CONTACT | Protective Film Solutions You may want to trim it to the visor up line. We trimmed it to the top of the visor when folded down. My wife...

We picked up our second Sig on Tuesday. No sunshade and the information was it will ship directly to owners once inventory is available. Same thing happened with the S on early items that were in short supply.

Back on topic. Two Tesla Model X twins, sadly separated at birth, have been reunited and there is one less Sig still waiting. Posting photos is now a screwed up mess so no photos.

I should receive them ..... Soon. I will post a picture when they arrive.

I ordered the 19s and was glad they offered it in 19. That's a much better wheel if you are actually going to take a rough back country rutted road. Now I don't need to take my jeep out to go back country. Low profiles look great but they are completly bizarre if you actually plan to ever...

Loading up today to head back to Arizona. Put the cover back in to load some large boxes. Here it is with middle row moved full forward. And with both middle seats full back When the bumper protection flap is folded in it fits exactly to the rear of the cargo area.

Personally I find the whole eMPG to be a little silly. It is a made up rating so people can still gas think when they EV. My math is much simpler. When I drive my Tesla it costs just over one cent a mile when charged with my surplus solar ( I can sell the surplus for 3.4 cents a kWh). If I...

KL670, I suppose all machines have their limits. My biggest complaint has usually been they are a little too sensitive. Usually if you are standing inside the swing arc it will stop after opening a few inchs because it determines it does not have adequate clearance to complet the open cycle. I...

The solution is actually pretty simple. You don't activate the door if it is not safe to do so. Just the same as you would not manually open any door if it is not safe to do so. Maybe we are so used to traditional doors we think the Falcons are somehow different. They are doors. You have to...

After reading all the selections and setting you listed above you will find the S or X to be incredibly simple. Once you go full EV it dramatically simplifies everything. I find it almost impossible to comprehend all the settings on my daughters Lexus GX 460 Luxury model. The number of...

Sig Red and original red multi coat side by side. I like both reds. But the Sig Red is my favorite.

The missing Model X report and milk carton photos finally resulted in the car being located. The Model X vehicle search team has been in contact and notified us that the car has been located and will be delivered to our long suffering hands on 3/15. We thank all those who have offered their...

The steering wheel accelerator interconnect has served that purpose for 100 years. Recently a flock of birds took flight across the front of my Model S while driving at 45 miles per hour in auto drive. The car aggressively slowed then immediately accelerated back to my set speed. So it not...

It does take a little practice and experience to not over accelerate and over regen. Most people are used to under powered cars and need time to adjust to the instant power and learn not to pull off the accelerator quickly. it is a new experience to learn to not dump the accelerator pedal...

The XC90 looks like a main battle tank. If it works for you enjoy. We went Tesla from Nissan Leafs because the Leaf battery range was so low. I can't imagine dropping to 18 miles. That would be a giant step backwards for us. We charge with solar at home so battery range was our number one...

When the pedestal is locked back the middle seat position can be adjusted several inches forward and back using the seat side control. A few software updates back the seat locked back in the few inchs forward position and then had to be moved back fully with the side control. Now that is...

How did you do it. I can't figure out how to get them to stay on when I leave the car. Sometimes I want them to stay on and have not yet figured out how to get them to stay on when no one is in the car.

Now that I know it works I will be ordering for the seven seat also. It spans across the area between the two seats, up to the base of the headrests, very well. But then as a dog owner I know how creative those four legged creatures can be.

One thing I have learned from these latest demo experiences and my own experiences driving EVs is that it is really hard to explain to people, that have not driven them everyday, how and why this all works. I find it to be a real challenge to get people to understand what they have not...

Now children please play nice in the sand box. You can have whatever reason you want for enjoying the cars and everyone is welcome for whatever reason works for them. I have a nasty habit of needing to breathe so I prefer transportation that does not include a smoke stack. As an added bonus...

I needed to haul a large load this week and ordered this rear cover. It works very well in the back of the X. Amazon.com : Deluxe SUV Cargo Liner For Pets - Waterproof, Nonslip, Machine Washable Car Seat Cover for Pets, Lifetime Warranty : Pet Supplies It has loops that go over the middle row...

So much for hiding behind a screen name. I have been haunting these forums for a few years now. One added perk of being a Tesla owner is all the information you can gain from other owners on the forums. I obviously don't drive all our cars. I am the designated Tesla buyer and fleet manager...

I can't add this to the Everydaydriver thread so I will start another thread. Edits closed out. My last and final car demo. I promised my wife I would quit taking all her stuff out of her car so strangers could drive it. Bonnie ratted me out to auto blog green so she gets the credit for...
