    Ordered P90D 5 Seater in March - No Response

    Can someone help me out as to why I have not received my P90D Model X? I ordered it in March at a cost of $135,000 and I am not getting any response from Tesla as to the projected delivery date. When I'm at the sales centers I cannot get a straight answer. They all look up my reservation and...

    Reactions to Model X reveal event

    Smart MARKETING from Elon Musk I've heard Musk taking a lot of heat from his presentation and lack of details on the Model X. Well MUSK is a Genius..... He knows this is going to be WOMEN's vehicle. He knows women will be doing most of the driving with their kids so what does Elon focus...

    Model X Key Fob Has anyone seen the Key Fob?? Was wondering how different is it from the Model S.

    Is the Model X spoiler fixed or retractable?

    It was an eye catcher because I did not see anyone ask the question. I was not shouting.

    Falcon-wing doors in snow

    SNOW REMOVAL on the ROOF? What happens when you get 2+ inches of snow and you need to gain access to the rear seats? Will all that snow drop into the car??? Does that mean you have to CLEAN the ROOF off first before opening the FWD?

    Reactions to Model X reveal event

    Did anyone notice the SNAFU when the X was driven onto the stage? When the driver left the SUV he closed the door. As he walked away the door OPENED UP and Elon had to walk over and close it before he started speaking.

    Reactions to Model X reveal event

    Thats a good point. Big selling point for the Chinese. I thought it was weird why Elon highlighted that point.

    Picking up my 85D in 3 hours! Can I get a few glances at these lease details?

    Without the down payment if you were to take the raw numbers it looks like APR is 2.99%

    Left Rear Door will not open

    I have been a big supporter of the Model S and Tesla but my patience is waning. I've had my right rear door handle REPLACED TWICE. Yesterday I was at an event in Delaware and 2 of my friends (Carnegie Mellon Engineering Grads) wanted to see my car and take it for a test drive. We drove for...

    Tesla Heaven - Paramus, NJ

    Thanks Andrey for posting the picture that a poster thought I was lying! :-) Actually that's on the NORTH side of the center. There's a SMASHBURGER in the background. Good burger but Shake Shack is the BEST.

    Tesla Heaven - Paramus, NJ

    I have to tell this story. The other night around 9pm I was leaving NYC and was a little hungry. Shake Shack just opened a new place on Rt. 17 in Paramus so I decided to head over there in my Tesla is to get a burger. I realized Tesla opened a new LARGER Sales/Service Center so I decided to...

    Teslas in Movies & TV

    Model S in Hawaii FIVE-O Episode Just returned from Honolulu and saw the latest episode of Five-O. Towards the end of the show there's a Model S parked in the driveway of a very expensive home in Kahala. It's parked next to a Porsche. Very cool......

    Is NAV broken?

    I think the 3G Service is not working properly. At time I'm getting ZERO BARS which causes the NAV System to blink out.

    19" and 21" Tire Wear (informal) Survey

    I didn't see the threads - car was already in the garage. Before everyone jumps to assumptions and conclusions about their own experiences you have to be careful because everyone has different variables and driving habits. My conditions: I drive 150 miles a day (City & HWY) and a lot in NYC...

    19" and 21" Tire Wear (informal) Survey

    19" Goodyear P85 Tires - REPLACED after 18,000 Miles. Model S is very hard on REAR TIRES. Service Tech said 18,000 is about average.

    Model S alignment dimensions.

    The Model S is VERY HARD on REAR Tires. I have the 19" Goodyear tires and after 18,000 Miles I have to replace them. I was shocked when the SC told me I had to buy new ones. He said the S REAR really grinds the tires.

    Firmware 6.0

    I wish Tesla would add the function of limiting the amount of detail on the Navigation System. I want them to give us the option if we want more or less detail. If I'm taking a long distance trip I don't need to know every little detail about the area I'm in. This will also allow faster...

    Tesla warranty now has 8 year/infinite mile battery & drive unit warranty retroactive

    This will push the 60kwh potential buyers up to the the 85Kwh level which means more profit for Tesla. - - - Updated - - - What's the difference between "INFINITE" and "UNLIMITED"??? :confused:

    Does Fuel Savings really make that much of a difference?

    Before I received my Model S I was spending $9,000 a year in GASOLINE but now my fuel bill last year was $950. With the savings over 5 years plus market value - the car will pay for itself.

    Tesla moments

    Here's my favorite collection. I was at the Greenwich, CT charging station on a sunny Saturday afternoon last month. A group of 4 (3 guys and 1 female) got out of a car and 1 one of the guys came over to talk about my Model S. He was from Albany, Georgia (classic "friendly" redneck) and he...

    6 wheels bent now.. anyone else?

    I was in the same boat as you but luckily I had the tire insurance. I had 2 blowouts at the same time at 1AM on I-80 (LF & LR). Had to replace both tires and 1 Rim. Since then I've had 2 more flats and a bent rim. I know the insurance company hated me but I bit the bullet and switched to the...

    Troubling squeak / creak sounds?

    I'm having the same problem. I noticed it about 1 week ago. I'm having another problem. I am getting HIP ailments on my left side. I thought it was me and my sporting activities but I think it's the car. I've been driving my "S" constantly for the past 3 weeks and that's when the hip...

    Better SEATS are coming to Model S

    I mentioned to my wife last weekend that Tesla needs to improve their seats. They are not comfortable!!!! Today I read the USA Today article where MUSK said they plan to improve the seats. THANK YOU....... Hope I can change out mine. After 19,000 miles I need more comfort. Tesla makes...

    Just got my first EV Power bill

    In NJ I pay $.08 OFF PEAK (8pm - 8am) and $.19 PEAK - That's with the "TIME OF USE" Meter I have a swimming pool and started running the pool filter at night to minimize the cost. Big Difference.

    Model X to be featured on AWE Channel

    Tonight May 24th @ 8pm. The name of the show is BOYS TOYS. IMO - Tesla will start taking orders soon. There's a lot of BUZZ on the "X" lately. Price tag: $70K - $100K

    Getting a car wash

    It's fine to go through a car wash. The ONLY ISSUE is if you have the PANA ROOF you will have to put tape over the 4 tabs on top so that the brush do not break them. Before you get out of the car tell the service guy put the car in TOW MODE. That will keep the car in Neutral and you can leave...

    Can't decide on my color

    To be honest - every color looks good in the Model S. You will not be disappointed. You will be disappointed in how quickly is gets DIRTY. I would recommend you getting a silicone/synthetic sealer and/or wrap your car. I got the factory wrap and it works great.

    JFK Supercharger - NYC first TESLA TAXI CAB

    Ok I have been racking my brains out trying to figure out why did Telsa put in a SC at JFK Airport? I think it's because NYC will introduce the first TESLA TAXI CAB. With 250 mile range it's more than enough to make runs back and forth from midtown to JFK before charging up. Also the cabs...

    Options you would like to see in the Model X

    What do you do when you and your family want to go Skiing and there's no place to put your skis? Also for those owners who live in winter climates?? How do you remove Snow and Ice from the top of the vehicle?? You won't be able to open the falcon doors?

    Car was dead this morning after 3 days in sleep mode while plugged in

    Did you guys have your original 12V battery replaced? Tesla called me (2 months ago) and said there was a small recall on the battery and mine had to be replaced. They came out and swapped out the battery.

    Expect the same driving delays on your return trip. There's a bad bottleneck from Baltimore to Richmond (I-95 is horrible). Too bad you can't drive I-81.
