I have always parked carefully and have had only a couple of small dings in 20 months, BUT the new thing is something that it doesn't matter how you park -- VANDALS who key the car. I just got mt car repaired from a Q-panel keying for $1,600, and someone keyed about 4 inched of the rear bumper...

I have been unable to get a consistent answer from service or sales on the BEST protocol for regularly charging my MS. Tesla has said we should set the "normal" charge for what we use on a regular basis. They did NOT say we should keep it at the "old" standard of 90%. I have been told that...

My MS85 is now just over a year old, with 14k miles. I am a little surprised at the negativity of some given that TM has added chargers in areas that weren't shown on earlier maps, increased the number of chargers at many busy locations, and increased throughput speeds for some. Have we...

I have 12,000 miles from delivery 12/22/12, and 90% range is only 213, which really concerns me. I am not an aggressive driver, averaging 320 w/mile from inception. Was getting 235 until version 4.5 a few months ago. Here in northern CA. a 15% degradation in 11 months and 12k miles does not...

I think they'll need something around Redding, as Corning to Grants Pass is 225 Mi, which is pushing it. Any thoughts?

We just returned from 3 days in the Nevada City/Grass Valley area, having driven up from Sunnyvale. The closest SC is Folsom, at that is 50 miles 1-way to NC. That means it is hard to drive around and get back to Folsom on the one charge. But GOOD NEWS. We stayed at the top B&B in NC, the...

Home 14-50 sharing OK. So here is what I don't understand as we discuss traveling where there is no SC. I get 28-31 miles/hr from my 14-50. If the nearest SC is 75 miles, would people be wanting to drop by my house and sit there for 3 hours? How does this work? I have decided that I need...

We did an 1800 mile trip in April, from SJ to Zion in Utah and back. Worked great as we spent the night (intentionally) in Vegas, and the B&B at Zion had a dryer plug the let us use -- for free. I think where there is going to be a problem at places like Hawthorne and other city locations is...

Learning from 1800 miles with our MS was informative and fun. Over that distance we averaged 321 w/mi, with lots of 70 mph driving in Nevada and Utah as we drove to Vegas, Zion, and Bryce. The initial climb from Zion towards Bryce used 578 w/mi, but some slight downhill was as little as 250...

It would be very interesting for us to be able to access our own car's logs. They obviously can track everything as they did for the NYT drive. I would love to know exactly how I am doing, especially on a road trip, so I can learn for my next trip. Anyone know if there is any way to get the...

I would definitely be interested as I intend to do some trips with my S that will need stations other than the TM superchargers, which do lock. Any downsides? Any idea as to when available? Cost?

While there is a lot of debate about whether Broder "faked" the report, I think Elon went too far as well. But as I've read a lot about how fast/slow he drove, and how most people drive at 70+ on the highway, we all know that if you drive an ICE car at 70+ your mileage will drop... duh. And...
