See 19 Tires on EBay - Menlo Park - Pickup only

There is a market for a car such as the Detroit Electric roadster, but how big it is and and whether Detroit Electric (DE) can deliver are open questions. Market-wise, it would only go after part of the original market for the Tesla Roadster. Some people bought the Roadster because they...

I'm just reporting what I read on EBay, I do not live anywhere near the seller. I suggest you contact the seller through EBay, or perhaps some member in the area can make a suggestion on pickup and shipping.

Tesla Model s 19 Wheels Tires | eBay

Any update on the general or specific location?

1. I have a front license plate in a hot and humid climate without problems. 2. Once you set the charging rate at a location, it generally stays set for that location. I charge at 32 amps. 3. My preference is to plug the car in every day unless there is a good reason not to. The battery...

Be sure sure to read the threads here on tires. Their life and cost can vary considerably depending upon the tire brand and model, and and your usage. I bought my car used with 3800 miles on the Tesla-supplied performance tires and had to replace the rear tires immediately. Without checking...

Here is a link to the company mentioned in the video and the Wikipedia article: http://www.phinergy.com/ The video did talk about the aluminum/aluminium plates needing to be replaced.

A Car That Runs on Air, Water: Here's How It Works: Video - Bloomberg This video alleges that the on-board reaction of water, aluminum and air, combined with a LI battery give a small car a 1,000 mile range. Projected to be to market in Israel in 2017.

Yes, my car was first sold in the North without shrouds and the AC struggled during the Houston Summers until the shrouds were added.

I have now owned a 1.5 in Houston for a little over 3 years, and love it. You can manage the cost of tires, if you want to. How you drive the car obviously makes a difference. Plus, if you do not need to push the limits of tires you, you may find you are satisfied with less expensive tires...

Someone on this site had for sale a 14-50 UMC dongle for sale which had the neutral prong cut off. Upon inquiry, he explained that at each end of his commute had different sockets and Tesla at one point sold no dongle to match a 14-30. So, he cut off the neutral prong (the only prong different...

Note that the UMC checks for the ground prong actually being connected to ground. I do not know if the UMC tests to see if the neutral prong is connected, but the UMC will operate with neutral and ground connected together so long as they are connected to ground.

Re facia upgrades to 2.5 style, does anyone know if you get to keep the old (1.5/2.0) facia in case you decide to reconvert?

One approach to pin down your problem would be to take your cable and car to an RV park with 50 amp service and test it there (providing you have the most common 14-50 dongle).

Yes, the extension cords mentioned in the 1st message have NEMA 5-15 plugs and sockets and are for 120 volt charging. Good find on the NEMA 14-50 extension cords.

I cannot speak re the Model S, but inspections of the Roadster are painless, and cheap. The biggest issue I have ever had was that I once had to show the inspector how to find the car's mileage. (I did not have it displayed on screen below the speedometer.) They just check the obvious items...

Unless new cars are different from out-of-state used cars: You legally have a few days after purchase to go to the tax office, but the sooner the better. You have to get the car inspected before you go to the tax office. The inspection includes a VIN verification if not already registered in...

First, you might want to reevaluate how important it is that your Tesla be RHD. If required by law, that is one thing. But if not required by law consider that many RHD cars are driven in LHD countries all of the time, and I drove a LHD car in England without too many problems. If RHD is...

William3 had a set, but I do not know if he still has them.

Lotus does call the same color "British Racing Green." There some really memorable Jimmy Clark stories, often in British Racing Green cars. One was the Indy 500 where Clark grossly accelerated his competition on the start and the race had to be restarted shortly thereafter due to an unrelated...

For what it is worth, my 1.5's AC was marginal in Houston for the 1st Summer, but has been quite acceptable now that Tesla has retrofitted fan surrounds. If you have ever had a sports car before, you probably would not be disappointed with with the negatives of a 1.5 compared to a 2.0. If...

At least years ago, the California bureaucracy actually made it difficult to pay the tax other than while changing title at the DMV. For arcane reasons, I needed to pay the tax other than while transferring title at the DMV. I went to the State Board of Equalization and asked for a form to pay...

My understanding is that if an out-of-state resident purchases a car in CA from a CA Dealer, the dealer collects the CA sales tax unless the vehicle is transported out of state by the dealer or by a common carrier (car hauler). However, an out-of-state resident purchases a car in CA from a...

Congratulations. I too purchased a Racing Green Tesla from New Jersey, and I love it. The Tesla website had very poor pictures of Racing Green Roadsters, thus discouraging many people from picking this beautiful color.

Yes, original message now corrected.

Amen on getting clarification of the indications of fully charged mileage in standard and range mode. My 3.5 year old with 10k miles often shows 191 in standard mode. 188 in Range mode would be horrible. If the car does not already have fan shrouds, get them. They really help in warm...

According to the promo, one of the cars on 5th Gear tonight will be the (electric) T.27 city car. It was designed by Gordon Murray, designer of the McLaren F1 and who also worked on the Mercedes-McLaren SLR. It is reported to use 9 kw per mile. Here is a linky to one article Autocar takes...

It is not at all uncommon for cars that become collector items to depreciate for five or even ten years before the prices turn up. Eventual collector cars often have a relatively short run with demand dropping off toward the end of the run. For instance. Acura sold very few NSXes during the...

#809 Sport no reserve on EBay Tesla : ROADSTER SPORT in Tesla | eBay Motors Dark blue Gainesville, FL Next bid: $80k

Out of curiosity, do we think that double sales taxes will have to be paid? (In some states, the tax is called a "compensating use tax" or simply "use tax" if collected by the state from the buyer rather than the seller.) If Tesla does not have a location in Maine, it probably will not collect...

There was a story a few years ago about a stunt in which a car was transported in a plane and the GPS of the car was used to navigate the plane. Obviously, the car had to be "on" all of the way to allow use of the car's GPS.

Could this have happened with the car transported on a truck or trailer (with the "ignition" on)? The question assumes that the distance moved is based off of the GPS rather than the odometer.

I am glad to see that your top turned out quite beautiful.

Congratulations. Note that, unlike the 70 amp connector, the UMC requires that the ground be connected. However, a shunt to the neutral will work.
