the museum looks pretty cool. hope all enjoyed.

bump :)

umm. isn't stopping distance at 90 mph 600 feet? So if the tracker can only see 600 feet....then it limits to 90 mph? edit: changed braking to stopping.

I lived off 110v for 2 months. Heck, I even took a road trip to Palm Springs (from OC) the first week I got the car (Plugshare is your friend as I found some NEMA 14-50 plugs I could use). I had to plan everything and monitor usage (created an Excel spreadsheet to determine how much range I...

Just a reminder that if you are interested in attending, please sign up and let us know.

hey come join us OC-ers on our monthly meet. this month it is a trek to Temecula for lunch and wine tasting. See post.

Yes I have fallen from the ranks. It was my pleasure organizing the OC meets. I am helping to plan the last of the year. Keep an eye out for that.

Hi FredTMC, Yup moved to Asia for the new job. I already miss life in the States.

huh, so this thread finally showed up? I posted this back in October. Anyways I am selling my car because I no longer am in need of a car. I've moved to where I take the metro everywhere. - - - Updated - - - The price is negotiable, but moot point now. I have a buyer that negotiated a...

OK. so why doesn't my car for sale show up on the For Sale thread? only in the Classifieds section.

Just an FYI. southern cal toll road discussion already in the California forum: California: Free 91/110/10 Express Lane Access

Ahh... makes me homesick....and carsick (which has a different meaning than the norm)

@K.J. Gimbel: so you also buy from owners? Or only through Tesla?

:( OK so everyone i've talked to has recommended selling. now i gotta figure out how to do that. Any recommendations? Craigslist seems shady.

I anticipate that the job to be a one year stint overseas, with 2 trips back to the US (hence the 6 month in between). After the one year, I will negotiate more time to be spent in the US.

Yes, I was planning to have it plugged into 110V at 50%. The question is where? Would one go to Public Storage? Are there any people have used for a car? I am kinda thinking Storage Wars, and someone is gonna thrilled to win the auction of my storage unit.

I recently got a new job (yay me!). However, it entails traveling away months at a time (yay and nay). What should I do with my car? I have no plans to sell the car (unless I really have to). The stretches in between being away and being at home could be up to 6 months, so the car would need...

Nice! and congrats on the WR. and to the OP, not everyone can afford a Tesla so no surprise that the presence of other cars outnumber Teslas... and yes I understand it was a way to got more Teslas to sign up :biggrin:

Congrats on the new car!! come join us for OC Tesla meets! PM me for details. edit: Ooops. I read RSM. but contact me anyways. I believe Marco is trying to set meets up in the IE and I can send you his contact info.

Glad all made it out with minor issues. Please get checked out to determine what happened. the car can be replaced later.

There are 2 Drive Electric Week events being held in Orange County. Saturday September 20th in Huntington Beach (10 am to 4 pm): https://driveelectricweek.org/event.php?eventid=153 Sunday September 21st in Laguna Hills (10 am to 3 pm): https://driveelectricweek.org/event.php?eventid=158 It...

National Drive Electric Week will be September 15th to the 21st. it would be good to have a strong Tesla contingent at each of these events. If interested in participating, register for an event near you: National Drive Electric Week: September 15 - 21, 2014

@capt601: we'll miss you and Anna, but have a great time! you can tell us about it at the next meet. Hope to see folks there!

I ordered mine without seeing one. in fact, didn't step foot into a Tesla store until after I ordered and became antsy due to the wait.

some more information. i got the Tesla console installed. the thread that they use is a grey, satiny thread with high sheen. so up close it is grey, but with reflections of light, it looks white. I have the textile interior and the thread for the rest of the car is a blackish rough looking...

Hey gang, July was a busy month, with some participating in Lake Forest's 4th of July parade, and some attending the Nikola Tesla event in LA. Sorry for not planning a larger gathering. So here I am planning the August meet. We'll have this at our usual place for coffee and gelato at the OC...

is the drive train different between the 2 models? if not then why not have infinite on the drive train too for 60s? i understand the battery pack is limited to 125K for 60s and they want to match that... but...

Just be careful with this trap. Although there is no blood and guts, the rubberband essentially strangles the mouse, and in their panic will urinate and defecate (if the band doesn't snap their neck). I used this trap in my apartment years ago, and a damn mouse triggered it while I was...

Got the email. i am torn between getting it and not. I like to be able to organize stuff in the center. currently have stuff thrown into a Tesla bag sitting in the center. and as others have noted, great spot to place takeout or leftovers without the juices escaping the takeout box. the...

hadn't thought about linking to the condo gate entrance. thanks to this thread, my car now opens the gate and my garage! woohoo! just be sure to program your car near the gate so that the Homelink pops up when in close proximity (and not just at your home).

glad you made it out unscathed. wishing you the best for the replacement!

cars with the Tech Package have the chrome trim under the rear bumper. Unless of course the previous owner wrapped it.

the more I look at the chrome, the more I feel like the car is naked....

new name for the car: Colossus.

Even the 73?

Argh. so I committed the cardinal sin of spilling a fast food soft drink all over my passenger seat. All I had were napkins and I was nowhere close to home. So I wiped up what I could and by the time I got home, the liquid was all dried up from being out in the sun. got most of the sticky...

Let me know if you would be interested in attending so I can get a headcount for dinner.

looking nice! and Congrats!

Congrats! We have one on Thursday June 19th if you want to drop by to ask questions (see other thread)

The first weekday OC Tesla meet was a success. You can view some pictures on the Teslamotorsclub.com (TMC) OC Tesla group page. The next one will be Thursday June 19th at 6:45 (meet and greet) with 7:30 pm dinner. Location will be the adjacent parking lot to the Huntington Beach Pier on 6th...

Pencil this into your calendars. The next OC Tesla Meet will be Saturday June 28th, from noon to 2 pm. Working with Union Bank to have this meeting in the parking lot of the SuperChargers in San Juan Capistrano. I'll provide more details once I have my meeting with UB.

These are photos from the event. Thanks Larry for the panoramic. More are posted in the OC Tesla Groups page.

Thanks all for your replies. Yes.. i've heard in racing terms to pedal through the turn. I guess I never really experienced this as every time I hit an on-ramp, there is a line of cars there...so i trickle down. The rears probably have a few hundred miles on them now, and all tires are...

Yesterday something unexpected happened. I was driving on surface streets approaching a freeway on-ramp (the circular kind). Typically, as I begin my entry onto the on-ramp, I release the acc. pedal (going about 45 mph) and ride through to the bottom. This time, half-way down the ramp (with...

But isn't the GAP insurance a onetime payment?

Just an FYI. I created a new thread for the Thursday meet

So there has been interest in setting up a weekday event by those finding it difficult to meet during the weekend due to other obligations. This will be our inaugural weekday OC event. When: Thursday May 29th at 6:00/6:30 pm Where: Seal Beach Pier (8th Street lot) at 6pm and then Thai on...

OK if you wanna do the Pier for pictures and such, then how about Thai on the Main BTW, how is parking on a Thursday at 6:30ish? will it be packed? especially with the start of summer this weekend
