    Virginia universities

    Actually, there is one on campus - at the rear of ISAT Building. However, it is solely for use by one EV owned by JMU. Not for public use. None others on campus - at least not for public use. Harrisonburg Electric Commission (HEC) has a free 50 amp charger downtown in the rear of its...

    Model S Fatal Crash Impact on current owners

    I know this response is cynical, but I believe this technology - along with many others - will always be dictated by the 10% of us out there who cannot handle it, the government which always overreacts, and the company with the technology that - for good reason - is afraid of being sued.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    For what it is worth (if at all), I have a VIN very close to you with same delivery date (Tysons Corner, VA) and my DS emailed me yesterday and advised the car will arrive at the SC late during the week of June 12th and I chose to take delivery on the 21st. Could have taken it on the 17th, but...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Really strange - I thought that in light of all the other reports of cars being pushed from May-June, mine would be pushed into June-July as well. Received an email today from DS advising that I am going into production Monday. Model S 90D 140883 - Ordered 4/15/16, Confirmed 4/22/16...

    Charges in Richmond?

    Yes you can. The garage is not free but once you are in the garage, you can use the charger. There is a monthly user who works in the adjoining building who regularly uses it during the week. One charger with two parking spots.

    Has anyone received a Maritz Research Customer Satisfaction Survey?

    I received me. I got so frustrated trying to address questions that have no application to a Tesla that I quit. Whoever hired them to use a "canned" survey form should be shot.

    Power drain while idle (Vampire Load)

    Temperature is the third factor that must be accounted for as it appears to be a significant factor. - - - Updated - - - I understand that the answer is a resounding, unequivocal YES.

    My Model S was stolen...again!

    Yea, but the dude at the service center offered her a fob on delivery. What do I say, " no, that's mine!"

    Should EVs Make Artificial Sounds at Low Speeds?

    Absolutely. I have never considered that feature on an ICE a plus in the states (many models offer it). However, after nearly two weeks experience in my new MS, I believe there is a significant need for that because road noise ( the only noise you get in the MS) seems to increase exponentially...

    You're probably right!

    Power drain while idle (Vampire Load)

    I am losing about 8 mi/day and I am not seeing that loss reduce as the battery wears down - the 8 mi/day loss seems to be straight-line. Others have stated that their chargers "kick back on" once the rated miles reduces down to around 230, but I am not seeing that. Admittedly, I have not...

    Power drain while idle (Vampire Load)

    Confused on Failure of MS to Stay "Topped Off" While Plugged In I know I am late to the party on this point, but I find myself using the iPhone app to switch the charge (in my plugged-in S) to "Max Range" for a few minutes to trick the car into charging and after a few minutes, I switch the...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Great! I had no advance info on delivery of shipping after receiving a call last Monday from PS informing me my car finished production last Sunday. DS called me last night and I pick up Monday in Rockville at 4 PM. Oakton, VA. Pearl, 85 kwh, pano, air, tech, silver 21", studio, twin...

    Company parking lot charger etiquette

    I say that you should play it by ear and treat others as they treat you.

    Did not order the panoramic roof. Big mistake???

    Drdui: I ordered the pano roof but I will promise you that you will love your car without it. It's not a mistake. Go with it, dude! First decisions are usually the best ones.

    Todd Burch's Delivery (S)tory

    Todd, Great post. Please post another detailed review after your second full day with the car. Very informative. I am in NoVa and am a P78** number with no VIN yet. Based on all of the intelligence out there, I do not really expect my car by the end of January, but it could possible happen...

    SolarCity installed a 10-50 socket

    Like I said, I got ripped. They did a good job if that is any consolation. Remember the Grinch? "I'm an idiot . . . I'm an idiot!"

    SolarCity installed a 10-50 socket

    I had my electrical install today. Required about an 80 foot run from my main breaker box to a new breaker box near then new 240v standard plug. You can see stub out for my HPWC - supposedly to arrive in late January. As you can see, I have some minor drywall repair work to do before...
