    Elon say's AP off in Penn. crash

    All this bug-a-boo about miles driven, number of accidents, etc, make for good headlines. I doubt any of the people cahlling for the AP to be disabled have ever driven a Tesla with it on. I know I am a much better, safer driver with the AP on than I am with it off. It's another set of eyes...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    Not exactly a software wish, but I'd like Telsa and the club for sponsor a "Plug Exchange". I would be willing to make my 240v plug available to Model S travellers and would like them to make theirs available. We must be getting close to 10,000 Model S's which means there are 10,000 240V...

    I believe that the only phone that should be connected is the drivers phone and It should be selected based on drivers profile.

    I agree with the driver map (left side dash) always showing the map from the drivers perspective, I do not need or want the large map to do the same. That said, I have no problem with it being an option.

    Good point. I'll tag my next door neighbor's address as home. :-)

    I'd like to be able to tag my home address with the name "Home", then be able to say "Drive to Home".

    Model S Software/Firmware Updates

    I heard about the update mid November. When I asked about dates, I was told within 2 weeks. Four weeks later having not received the code, I asked how I would know if I was overlooked. The answer was it's coming in a few weeks. Clearly not answering the question. (BTW I was below 4.0 until this...

    Model S Software/Firmware Updates

    There have been many exchanges. My point is unless they get up every morning and flip a coin, they have numerous project managers working over time to commit to and execute on a schedule. They have to have a list of who they are going to send to code to next. With over 40 years in development...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    It's been cold in Raleigh these last few days, so we've been running the heat in our Mod S. WHen the front windshield fogs up we turn on the front defroster. The car immediatley turns on the vents to the windshield and the AC and opens the outside air. Within seconds the fogs is cleared and I...

    Model S Software/Firmware Updates

    Here is my latest exchange with the ownership experience people "Advocate" you are missing the point in a number of areas. I am not in a rush to get the update. I just insist on knowing when its coming, or some indicator of its approach. I have been hearing "in a few weeks" now for over...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I currently set the dash to show projected range (vs rated). I'd like to see the background color coded to show if I'm ahead (say green) or behind (say orange) rated. An alternative would be to show both 240/210 projected/rated or rated/projected.

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I would prefer not to have this feature or have the ability to disable it. I don't want the car guessing. We come up to the car, together. My wife goes to passenger door while I'm placing something in the trunk. Car picks my wife. I close the trunk and go to the drivers door and the car either...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I don't think our key fobs are unique from each other. In any case, we both usually have our key fobs with us, so the car wouldn't know which one to use.

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I like it. One note of caution, though. There needs to be an interlock of some sort. If the bluetooth get selected based on the profile, I would not want my wife to remotely change the driver setting and my in progress phone call gets dropped. Worse, yet, come to think of it, I would not want...

    LOL. Yeah, the plan was for my wife to always set it back to my profile when she leaves the car. Just not working out that way :smile:

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I'd like to have a default driver seat setting. My wife is very short and I am very tall. When she leaves the car in her driver profile, I have to get into the passenger seat to set my driver profile. I'd like to be able to set the default seat to my position. When I put the car in park...

    Model S Software/Firmware Updates

    Yeah, the trick I continue to learn is getting to the stop sign or red light without using the brake. The motor and regen are so efficient that it does not seem to matter how fast I accelerate from a wh/mile perspective. It takes more power to accelerate quickly, but the energy is the area...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I'd like the bluetooth to connect to the drivers smart phone. My wife and I both drive our Mod S, although it's usually me driving. I want the bluetooth to selection to be saved in the driver's profile, so when my wife drives the bluetooth is connected to her phone and when I drive its...

    Model S Software/Firmware Updates

    I agree I agree. The way Tesla handles the regen is far superior from my perspective. I like knowing that the regen and mechanical braking are separate. Once I got used to the aggressive regen on the Model S, I surely missed it when driving rental cars on business.

    Model S charging @ only 16 amps on 40 Amp, 240 Volt Circuit => Why?

    Happened to me, as well.
