I recently purchased a new 2017 100D S and I’m now selling my original 2012 Metallic Blue P85 Model S, the best car I’ve ever owned. :) I’m the original owner and the car has been very well maintained and is in excellent condition. The car has 91k miles and I’m asking $46k or best offer. The...

Just saw this on TechCrunch: New App Lets Google Glass Owners Control Their Teslas Like Rich-Ass Robo-Wizards | TechCrunch I didn't see any mention on TMC, but the app creator did post on the TM forums though. I don't own Google Glass, and don't plan on a buying a pair, but the app looks...

Greetings fellow TMC members, For a couple of months now, I've been working on a website to track various vehicle stats for the Model S. That website is called tripography.com, and this week I've started opening it up to a limited number of Model S owners. You can find my public vehicle stats...

The 2013 Proxy Statement is now available online: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1318605/000119312513158904/d506419ddef14a.htm Haven't read it yet, but they often contain interesting tidbits of information. - - - Updated - - - From the proxy:

This thread is to track my first long distance family road trip in my Model S. Originally this was going to be a "speeds and feeds" journal, with all kinds of stats pulled directly from the car's telemetry system. But a few days before the trip I decided to pull the plug on the stats because...

Over in the More anti-ev gibberish thread, I linked to article in the opinion section of the WSJ, which included an "entertaining" video featuring Charlie Drevna of the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM). I had never heard of this lobbying group, and decided to check them out...

So every now and then I glance at the Active Users list at the bottom of the Forum page and see something like this: First question. What was going on at 9PM PST, on September 8, 2011 that caused 1,088 people to be on the TMC forums at the same time? Second question. When will this record be...

An excellent review by Road and Track: Return to Power: the 2013 Tesla Model S - Road & Track

Thanks to the Model S REST API and a little bit of Ruby, my Model S now tweets updates on its charging and driving status. You can follow @PureAmps on twitter if you are extremely bored. All posts to that account are automatically generated using data from the API. Now the first question you...

At least once year I travel with a group of friends and our kids and we usually rent a nice house somewhere in California. About half the time its a ski trip in Tahoe, but the other half could be somewhere else in the state, from San Diego to Santa Barbara to Napa. With my recent Model S...

I just received a registration renewal from the DMV for one of my existing vehicles in the mail today. I opened it up to find this dreaded notice at the top: Just a reminder of one less headache I'll have with the Model S...

It seems we have to wait 145 more days...until 9am Saturday, June 29, 2013.... This also closes the loop on the very first puzzle "sliv"...

I've now had two occurrences where I've returned to my car and the audio was tuned in into the NPR show "Car Talk" via the Tune In Internet Radio. I normally listen to either FM radio or Bluetooth audio via my phone, so I found this rather odd. I've only played with the Internet Radio options...

After driving the Model S for a couple of weeks now, I'm realizing that I have to modify some of my defensive driving habits that I've learned over the years. The most obvious is "covering the break" (taking your foot off the accelerator pedal and hovering over the brake pedal) which I do so...

Now that Model S production is in full swing, I wanted to document some remaining body panel gap and alignment issues. Overall the body panel gaps and alignment have improved a lot from the beta and pre-production vehicles used at the test drive events, but issues still remain for a vehicle at...

So I've been reading on the forums about "Telsa Time" and wondering if it was real phenomenon. Now that I have my car, I am all geared up to be an EV evangelist. Just waiting for the right opportunity... So yesterday, a new neighbor of mine, who just moved in this week, drove his car by...

As my Model S delivery date approaches, I'm starting to plan road trips that I normally take with my 15 mpg premium gas-guzzling SUV, and looking at how to do the trip in my Model S. The Model S has enough range that it works great as a daily driver and for <200 mile weekend trips in my...

Simian posted a great indoor shot of a Pearl White Model S that has a very cinematic look to it (Owners delivery stories, photos and first impressions - Page 9). It got me thinking how long before we see Model S "star" in a movie? And by that I mean play a key role in the film's story/plot...
