    Getting billed for using a normal looking wall connector?

    Was it billing for usage, or idling?

    I was looking forward to trying this place out this AM, but the Seattle Service Center had me all charged up before my trip south. Soon, my precious.

    Will older Tesla S/X with Induction Motors ever have FSD?

    I would love to have full one-pedal driving on my X!

    Will older Tesla S/X with Induction Motors ever have FSD?

    Thank you to the member who reached out to me and reminded me that my current MX with MCU2 and HW3 does stop at red lights and stop signs already.... DOH

    Will older Tesla S/X with Induction Motors ever have FSD?

    Do we know if any of the Beta FSD'ers are driving older S/X models with AC Induction motors? It never occurred to me that some Tesla owners DIDN'T use their brakes to come to a stop. I received a loaner model 3 a few weeks back and was pleasantly surprised when I had a true one-pedal driving...

    New S/X "Gear Shifts"

    Another issue I see with it... MCU failures. Currently, with the MCU debacle of the S/X and Tesla attempted to say that the MCU is a item that wears down, what happens with the refresh when the MCU glitches? You can still dive a current S/X with MCU failure because the stalk doesn't reply on...

    New S/X "Gear Shifts"

    I have a friend who had his right arm amputated.. He can drive normal cars using his left hand by reaching across his body to manipulate the shifter (column mounted and some console mounted ones). But those are also large that it's an easy object to manipulate. Having this small screen...

    Supercharger - Seattle, WA - NE Northgate Way

    That probably means meters should be there at any time. Once meters are set, Tesla will come out shortly after and commission the system. So... there should be power there by weeks end.

    Autopilot is not working

    Please take a moment in your new car and read the manual. These are pretty unique vehicles, centered around you the driver. There are a lot of things that are not like a normal vehicle.

    Supercharger - Seattle, WA - NE Northgate Way

    That double door cabinet with the padlock is probably the metering cabinet. Currently it has the tesla combo lock on it. When PSE comes (not sure if that is served by PSE or Seattle City Light) and does their thing they will likely add their tag to it as well. Basically, compare it to the...

    Supercharger - Seattle, WA - NE Northgate Way

    Look for the meter cabinet(s). Once those are good to go, then Tesla will send out a person to commission the system. Takes a few hours if all is well. Based on the transformer being installed, I'd say you have a week to 2 until the meters are installed, then a week after that for commissioning.

    Crack in Roof—Options?

    My answer doesn't change. Make an appointment in the app. Add the photos and tell them your distance issue. Request a ranger appointment. You'll get a response back in 24 hours max. If you somehow get a chance to talk to a person at the SC, they first thing they are going to do is tell you...

    Washington SB 5444 - to impose a mileage tax on owners of electric and hybrid vehicles

    Flat tax, like we have now, is the best play IMO. I am not going to install a GPS in my vehicle just for the .gov to see where I am, where I have been etc.

    Washington SB 5444 - to impose a mileage tax on owners of electric and hybrid vehicles

    So, how about those who drive often out of State? Would we need to log/appeal out of state travel? This has been the biggest hurdle of a $/mi model. You shouldn't have to pay a road tax on miles that you are not on the State's roads.

    Does anyone know this person? (FWY litter)

    Your thread is titled "Does anybody know this person.." ... So.... :) But I agree with you on the rest. it seems that us, as Tesla owners, hold each other to a higher standard. It's why we like to show off our PPF's, our clean cars, share our trips etc. But the honest reality is that a...

    PNW Snow reports (Seattle)

    This was my first winter with my X. I sold my Tahoe when I bought her in July, so I had a pretty high bar to meet when it comes to handling snowy roads. At my house in Oly, we got 16". I warmed her up and dug her out so I could get in. My driveway is about 100 yard of gravel, and with the...

    Looking to buy used X

    Plenty of pre-delivery checklists on here that can be applied to used vehicles. As far as degredation, ask the owner to charge it to 100% and send you a photo of the rated miles on the display. This may or may not be completely accurate based on the previous owners charging habits, but should...

    HELP!!!! Should I buy this used S75D from Tesla?

    As soon as you buy it, plan on dropping $1500 for MCU2, you will want MCU2. Also, that 259 miles of range is a fairy tale. In reality it will be 220ish.

    Firearm storage model 3 [and other firearms discussion]

    I never said your post was offensive. I liked it actually. I was just trying to find out how @ohmman drew his line, because it's not how he stated publicly it was drawn, since your post remained (past tense now). As you may be able to tell from my profile photo.. I like the pew-pews. But...

    Firearm storage model 3 [and other firearms discussion]

    This makes no sense. I actually said where I store my firearm, and it was quarantined, yet the photoshopped aston arsenal, where the poster actually said he has nothing to contribute other than a chopped photo, remains?

    Guns, Gun Control Quarantine

    I keep my firearm on me at all times. If, for some reason, I am going into a place where it is illegal for me to carry, I put it under my seat. My car is locked, it is a safe in itself. I am lucky in WA that signs carry very little weight of law and our RCW's clearly spell out where it is...

    Supercharger - Tumwater, WA

    I agree with it being tight. I love people watching and that place is awesome for it. Every time I have been there, there has been an internal game in my head of "is that truck going to make it" when it comes to making the tight turn off of the last pump lane. Regardless though, that's a...

    That's not how you upgrade. Create a service ticket, choose "Upgrades and Accessories" then choose "Infotainment Upgrade".

    What MCU and HW versions are you running. If MCU1 and or HW2, you will usually be in the back of the line and only get major releases and bug fixes.

    Any program to transfer Unlimited Super Charging to a NEW MS? [Answer: No]

    1 - Yes.. move so he can save $1k on charging his Tesla. Solid plan there. 2 - Not sure where you are from, but here in WA, we kind of like trees. We are the Evergreen State after all. And trees do all sorts of important stuff so others can you know.. .live and stuff. Just for fun...

    Any program to transfer Unlimited Super Charging to a NEW MS? [Answer: No]

    Because not everybody lives in an area with a good solar exposure? I have trees all around me, tall tress. Also, people drive a lot during the day, they can't charge via solar at night unless you start to add in a battery system, which then ups the cost. I'm glad your $8k PV system works for...

    Any program to transfer Unlimited Super Charging to a NEW MS? [Answer: No]

    This is a good option. Did you have any 3rd party app like TeslaFi where you can pull your total time at a Supercharger? That data would help in the argument. Also, hello neighbor!

    2016 X - MCU out - Anything I can do?

    Lame. I just updated my 2016 X to MCU2 earlier this week. Let me tell you, it's worth it. Have you tried reaching out to a different service center to see if they can help? I have heard in Cali that sometimes "shopping" service centers gets you the results you want since you have so many...
