Yep, it looks much better in real life than it does in the pictures and videos.

Interesting podcast of an interview on Killowatt of a Tesla Supercharger team member about the process of locating and installing Superchargers. It's on most podcast platforms but here is the app link: ‎Kilowatt: A Podcast about Electric Vehicles: Interview with Edwin Xiao on Apple Podcasts...

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing Brand new set of 18" T-Sportline TS5 with Tires for all models of Model Y, Pick up in Ventura CA.. Please add to the discussion here.

A friend from Bishop, CA just posted this picture on FaceBook. She says there are 24 stalls. She has not stated the address yet, but as soon as I find out, I will update. Of note is that they are pull-throughs which is nice for anyone with a trailer. It is amazing how far along this one is...

I had heard rumor of this over a year ago. 4095 Telegraph Road, Ventura CA 93003. The contractor tells me it is 12 x 250 kW units. I suppose that to eat at Denny's would be the right thing to do, but then again, the very best Mexican food in all of Ventura is a 1 minute walk up Ashwood to La...

A very well informed little birdie told me that there will be a Supercharger in Ventura, CA at the Denny's at 4095 Telegraph Rd. It is sort of an odd location as it is not easy freeway access nor is it in an area of multi-home housing. Hmm, I am surprised by this location. As I find more info...

I am hoping this can be a sticky thread, so many of us are from California and what happens in California may spread across the country. This fight will last most of the year so a sticky thread would be very nice. The California investor owned utilities are lobbying heavily for NEM 3.0. This...

My 14 year old daughter was able to get her school to do a No Idling Policy meaning parents at after school pick up need to turn off engines! With her first 3 days home from school due to Corona Virus, she put together this website: https://www.noidlingproject.com/

Spare tire and wheel for Model S. Nice to have on long trips. I have this wheel and tire that fits any Model S. It is 19" but will serve as a spare even if you have 21's. I carried it with me for long road trips. It will even fit in the frunk if you have the earlier large frunk $100. I am in...

Just curious, how many of you would choose to replace the navigation woman's voice with Elon's voice? It would be kinda' funny to have Elon tell us where to go, when to turn etc. What do you think?

My friend Russell Sidney he gets the credit for the find. Good news - Tesla just got approval for 12 120 kw Super Chargers on Ojai Ave next to the Ojai Valley Inn. They will be pulling permits soon. The Planning Commission Report shows the detailed specifications for installing the chargers...

NEW Program! State of California pays you $5,000 for purchase of a full battery EV NEW or USED! This is huge as there are plenty of excellent used Nissan Leaf’s, Fiat 500e’s, Chevy Spark EV, VW E-Golf, Mercedes B250, BMW i3, Kia Soul-ev, etc, at less than $10k. California is paying $5000...

I would like to mention this group that I think would be a good idea for solar owners in California (and other places) to support. They have been fairly effective at keeping the PUC on the side of the citizens rather than caving into the utilities attempts to defeat Net Metering. I just spent...

Actually, I think this car looks kinda' cool! Perfect beachmobile for the SoCal coast. Just add racks and a Tesla surfboard. ARTICLE: Russia wheels out its answer to Tesla

I bought a Hyundai Genesis 18" spare on ebay for $100 with free shipping. I mounted it front and back and took a drive each time for a few miles. It works perfectly. The standard Tesla lug nuts fit the wheel just fine. The tire that comes on this spare is easily rated for the weight of the Model...

Selling for a friend. 2014 Model S Blue. Only 36,500 Miles 2014 Tesla Model S 60 | eBay

Lobbyists for the utilities are getting traction on their proposal, Senate Bill 1088, to take control of all rooftop solar. The proposal would prohibit anyone other than the utility to install and maintain a solar system, even when on your property, behind the meter. SB 1088 would be a blow to...

So, Thousand Oaks is getting a second Supercharger. This one at THE OAKS mall.

I have a new, unused, set of SCC tire chains for the rear wheel drive Model S. $40 plus shipping and they are yours! Best to private message me if you want these.

I was having Ghost Shield in Thousand Oaks, CA apply SunTek clear bra to front of Model 3 today. I asked them if they could put something over the glossy black center console. I never like gloss black. Too shiny, too many fingerprints and too easy to scratch up. They installed for a mere $75...

I am super meticulous and as I work at home this car was in my garage most all the time. No dings, drives as well as new. 3 years and 20k miles left on warranty. 3 years unlimited miles left on drive unit and battery. FREE Supercharging for life. Best to look at ebay auction. Starts at $25k...

I drive by large California solar plants in the deserts and just get pissed off for the wildlife habitat they have scraped clean. I know good and well that rooftop solar on every roof in California is the better answer. But this article does make me feel somewhat better that the land is not...

I noticed on the Leaf owner's forum that members are claiming a rise in used Leaf prices. It's amazingly true, even here in southern California the used Leaf prices are headed up. Only last December, I and two friends of mine all bought 2013 Leaf's all with less than 25,000 miles at $6200 to...

I was surprised to come across this organization who seems to be doing excellent work providing solar for those who can not afford it. It is a 501c, I threw a bit of money their way. Something they provide is solar installation training for the volunteers who may be interested in entering into...

Hello, Actually, my daughter grew out of this so fast, it has probably not been worn more than 8 or 10 times. Fits kids 8 to 10 years old. Original price was $45. How about $30 free shipping? Private Message me with your email and I'lls end you a paypal. Gene

California, calls and signatures needed to stop EV fee's of $165 per EV per year!! You can thank the oil industry for being the money behind these many state laws that have been passed. http://hq-org.salsalabs.com/o/2711/t/0/blastContent.jsp?email_blast_KEY=1362240

I have not found a thread addressing this likely court battle. California has retained Eric Holder to defends its position to set its own standards for emissions and EV requirments. This from today's LA times: EPA to reconsider vehicle fuel standards, may move against California targets...

To change everything, we need everyone. It’s up to us to stop that from happening before it starts. Our fights are tied together, and we will only succeed together. That’s why, from now through the first 100 days and beyond, we are taking action and standing up for everything and everyone we...

I've had a Model S since March 2013 with already 75,000 miles on it. I've had several friends and strangers order Model S's after riding in mine. Thing is I have a whole slew of friends somewhat interested in EV's who haven't made the purchase. Oh they talk the talk about concern over climate...

Meant to be a funny story of an EV driver trying out a gas car. This has made its rounds a year ago but for those who have not read it prepare yourself to have a big laugh: Test drive of a petrol car - Tesla Club Sweden

A small audience, by invite only, will be at Lucid's reveal in Fremont on the 14th of December. There has been a lot of hard work put into this car by some dedicated EV engineers. After the event I'll be allowed to tell you what I know. At this time I know absolutely nothing about the car, I've...

I have a TDI which will be going back to VW. I have read in recent articles that the judge is allowing for VW to export these to other countries with less stringent pollution laws, or to repair them (can we trust VW?) and resell them in the USA. My tendency is to pour a spoonful of valve...

Please visit this link to comment: Plug In America the bill only extends the green HOV decal program for PHECs, but not the white decal program for pure battery electric vehicles (BEVs), which are cleaner than PHEVs and have zero tailpipe emissions. If nothing changes, drivers of BEVs will not...

I am surprised, but I can not find a thread on the Atieva. So, let's start one now! Chinese giant BAIC to make Tesla rival with electric car start-up Atieva | Autocar

I came across this car I was thinking to buy for my son, but he doesn't like blue. It is a great deal as it is $19,xxx, it's a dealer demo less than 200 miles and you still get the MSO papers so you can have the $7500 fed and $2500 state rebate! So you pay under $10,000 outright for a new Spark...

Moderator note: The first 60-ish posts in this thread were moved from another thread that started as discussion of a Santa Barbara Supercharger, but then as a result of events turned into a thread on the Goleta Supercharger. I don't see a thread yet listed. So, let's make this the Santa...

Tesla Corporate Jacket, Large, Never Worn Tesla Corporate Jacket was a gift to me from my son. Size is large which is too large for me. This is $109 on the Tesla site and their shipping and tax is very expensive! My shipping is only $10. Sorry, tags are missing, but it is unworn. List...

Anybody driving through Winslow, AZ? If so, could you please let me know. I'm hoping for someone to bring my "Priest Killer" kachina from La Posada Hotel to California, or Tucson for me. La Posada has a kachina I own but they can not ship it. I have a close friend in Tucson you could leave it...

There are other threads about batteries vs. hydrogen. But I wanted to start this one here in Charging Standards and Infrastructure, where it belongs. California is planning to spend much more money on hydrogen stations for a few cars made by Toyota and Honda of Japan versus very little money...
