Let me start by saying that the people at the service center were very nice. That being said, the rest of my experience totally sucked. AC broke on 07/02. System would no longer blow hot and cold air. The next available appointment was on 07/14, almost two weeks out. Brought the car in for...

If Tesla’s mission has been to “accelerate the worlds transition to “SUSTAINABLE” energy”, then why the heck is Elon so hot and bothered for BTC? If BTC were a country, it would be in the top 30 countries on earth for energy consumption. Bitcoin’s Energy Usage, Explained This goes against...

Had issues (sentry mode screen black for an extended period of time) when trying to view sentry mode events for the last few months. Two weeks ago, the viewer was totally disabled. My only option was to format the USB drive. I did that and sentry mode was working again. Today I jumped in and...

So I was giving a friend the experience of the Tesla acceleration the other day and I stomped it without warning. I saw them grasping (helplessly) for the (nonexistent) handles you’d typically use to enter/exit a vehicle, sometimes referred to as oh s*** handles. Honestly it was kind of...

I am curious how repairable the structural battery will be. I’m a big believer of reusing things. Seems like the only downside to a structural battery is that it could theoretically be much more difficult to repair since it will be part of the vehicle structure. Thoughts?

I don’t have WiFi due to the fact that I live in an apartment. No worries, I use my phone as a hotspot to download updates ever so slowly. Realized last night that if you leave you’re phone inside the car and lock with the keycard, you can grab the door handle and the car unlocks. Be sure to...

We are a one car household so we both have phone keys to our Y. Since getting the Y, making a stop to the liquor store to bring home a surprise bottle of wine is a thing of the past. Take last night for instance. I stopped to get some wine for my better half only to get a call asking for...

Dear Tesla Overlords, May I please request a logical and useful mechanism in which Tesla owners may submit feature enhancement requests? Currently, there is no standardized process for capturing user input. Only our output is captured and used with purpose. Here’s the solution: Submission...

Did a white carbon fiber dash and console wrap. The piano black center console does not go with the rest of the car, so I decided to do both the console and the dash. Very happy with the updated look though you can really see that the panels on the console are different heights.

I was sold at, “We spend a lot of time to test, we also install it on model 3 & model Y for half a year, it’s still work well”.

Article states minor to moderate injuries. :( Hopefully they are okay. Damage caused by a hit and run driver. https://www.noozhawk.com/article/multiple_vehicles_damaged_injuries_reported_in_series_of_hit_run_collisions

I reserved a performance MY but now am 95% sure I will downgrade to the LR AWD version once I am contacted to finalize my configuration. Why? Two reasons: Like the Model 3, it appears as there will be no hardware difference between the PAWD and the AWD version when it comes to motors, cables...

The $2500 reservation price just dropped to a C Note this AM. Tesla must be ready to open the production floodgates with such a reduction in deposit. Fremont must be banging right now.

Just curious about the X's ability to ford water. I don't expect it to be as hardcore as a Range Rover, I am NOT looking to do any kind of offroading. But I am hoping for better ability than the S, so that in the event of roads being flooded, I'd be able to make it through a foot or so of...

With the large glass roof, would you opt for a solar panel (like the Prius prime) instead of the glass roof? It would only add a few miles of range per day, but would negate vampire drain. 2017 Toyota Prius Prime Options/Specs: Solar Panels, Fast Charging (regionally), Heat Pump And More

I know there is a similar poll regarding the fact that the model 3 doesn't have a lift back. However, I wanted more finite results. So I created this poll... As Jalopnik had written it up, the lack of a lift back on the model 3 means you won't be able to haul as much stuff.. given this fact, I...

I usually like gas2.org. But this article is terrible. They make it appear as though: Tesla & Elon Sponsored the competition to hack a Model S That Tesla backed out of paying the $10,000 prize That a Model S is vulnerable to hacking Gas 2 | Bridging the gap between green heads and...

I decided to head over to Motortrend and review comments on the Model S COTY article. I found the following review: This is the second time I've seen a comment like this one. It seems to be fake IMHO. Why is there so much hate for ev's and Tesla in general, and would it be possible...

I originally signed up with seeking Alpha a few years to contact an article author regarding predatory lending. - Funny was he never got back to me... Maybe it was a sign... Anyways, I got involved in Tesla and ended up commenting on an article. From there my email has been flooded with...

I was surprised to see 8 Model S on Autotrader.com. Then I looked at the prices. Looks like people are trying to make some money. A couple of the listings state that the wait to receive is still Months. Find Your Car: Tesla Model S Listings Near La Jolla, CA 92037 - AutoTrader.com
