    First Trip!

    Took delivery of our first EV, a new 2023 M3 RWD on Aug 21st here on the big island of Hawaii. Charge was at 97% when we left our home a little north of Kona. We were just cruising around when we decided to head over to Hilo. Taking the north route for it's spectacular views. Speed limits are...

    Getting my M3 to Big Island?

    Aloha delirio! Seems I barely made it under the wire myself. I placed my order on June 27 and had a VIN assigned the next day. Delivery scheduled between July 17 - 21. In the following days the date would slip a few days at a time until Aug 1 it stopped appearing in the app at all. On Aug...

    NEW Model 3 Highland review!

    I really like the look of the new headlights! Any specifics on them? Global (Matrix) or ?? Highly likely the Euro version will have the Global with full functionality but how about US? Different altogether??

    New SC with a Twist!

    Do you think the car in the center of the pic is a tease of the new Model 2 or the Highland? Note the Model S, X “grille”. Who’s the babe coming out of the right side door?

    New SC with a Twist!

    Is this a model for things to come? Just for fun, zoom in on the rendering and see how many Easter eggs you can find. https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-supercharger-diner-permit-approved/

    Red/Red Model 3 ??

    Visited the Waimea Farmers Market yesterday and came across this model 3. AFAIK the red interior isn't an option so must be custom (??). Kinda like it although think a brighter red would be more to my taste!! Anyone seen this before?

    Q's on Moving my Charging Station

    I meant 3/4" conduit was recommended for the WC. Strange, I couldn't edit my previous post.

    Q's on Moving my Charging Station

    Planning on 3/4" (rigid or flex) PVC if using THHN. I've heard that #10 UF is difficult to pull thru 3/4" and would be better with 1". Seems THNN has a better coating for pulling ? THNN would be the better choice as Tesla recommends it for the WC (?).

    Q's on Moving my Charging Station

    The house configuration makes it quite difficult to add a new circuit. Will I need to use THHN or THWN wire since I am pulling thru conduit outdoors above ground? Google says UF wire is good for above application. Comments?

    Getting my M3 to Big Island?

    Hi all! Expecting delivery, according to Tesla, between July 10-19th in Honolulu. Need to transport to Big Island. Any recent experiences? What shipper, how long, need to make appointment, etc? Better for me to fly over, take delivery and then take to dock? Anyone there to help? So far no...

    What was the Tesla's advertised range for a 2020 Model T Perf when new?

    Would 8.6% degradation be considered “normal” ?

    What was the Tesla's advertised range for a 2020 Model T Perf when new?

    What was the Tesla's advertised range for a 2020 Model T Perf when new? Some sources say 315, others say 291 but I think that was EPA. My friends new to her model Y gets 266 mi from a full charge so we're trying to figure what the degradation has been. Just for information, no anxiety here o_O.

    Q's on Moving my Charging Station

    I'm not happy with where my charger is so I want to move it about 50' for better access. I have an existing Eaton outdoor box that is fed through the wall of the house. See: Tesla Mobile Connector “chip” ? I will replace the Eaton box with a junction box and run wire/conduit to the new...

    Tesla Mobile Connector “chip” ?

    Yes, wire is #10 so 30 amp breaker is correct and in place. Just ordered the 14-30 adapter from Tesla. Looking for Hubbell or ? 14-30 receptacle to replace the 14-50, any recommendations? Thanks for all the help!

    Tesla Mobile Connector “chip” ?

    Yes, no thought of changing to 40A, Need to determine the wire size first. I have a sample and will measure o.d. to see what that tells me.

    Tesla Mobile Connector “chip” ?

    Hello all, The home we just moved into has a 220v outlet under the sink tied to a 60 amp breaker used for an On Demand water heater. We installed a Heat Pump water heater and removed the on demand unit. Since the outlet in on an outside wall I pulled the wires thru and hooked up an Eaton...

    First Tesla ?

    My understanding is the new 75kwh battery pack is not limited. The old 60k pack was replaced with the 75, not by removing the software limit. Thanks for the info, I will confirm if my understanding is correct. Will also check on cause of motor replacement. $35k Another option is 2012 P85, 63k...

    First Tesla ?

    Looking for our first Tesla, have done some research but welcome ideas, opinions, etc. Budget is $40K, 35 would be better. Considering a 2014 Model S that started life as a 60kwh and was recently (6 mos) factory upgraded to 75 (including badge and software). 240 mile range at 100%. Would this...
