    Wiki Animal agriculture is responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions

    It is amazing that some still "LOVE" leather seats as it suggests that massive ignorance remains pervasive on this topic, despite years and years of evidence of just how toxic and evil it is. A random list of informative sites may help; let's begin with 2006 from the UN FAO...

    Tesla Model 3 vs ICE as it relates to the environment

    And don't forget the best part: you can (for a limited time), continue to dump your GHG's for FREE and leave future generations to wonder at the choices made by so many that put an entire planet at great peril! Why wait: get your new ICE machine today! Note--Never in human history have so...

    WTB: Plaid 21" Arachnid wheel/tire set (SoCal/AZ preferred)

    Looking for takeoff/very low mile/perfect MS Palladium 21" Arachnid wheels set, with tires/TPMS/etc, for use on the "next gen" (2021+ Model S). Can potentially pick up if not too far away, and greatly prefer Phoenix area, but SoCal would work as well (but it's a second choice, of course).

    FS: never used, new 21" Arachnids/tire set (Phoenix area)

    Selling our never used/never mounted Tesla 21” Arachnid staggered wheels set, with Tesla OEM tires (as mounted and balanced by Tesla to OEM specs). The wheels and tires have never been mounted on any car. (Have moved on to another Model S and no longer need this set.) These will fit ALL Tesla...

    Why not to buy leather seatcovers

    Thank you for the update, but please don't put a Katzkin leather interior in any car, especially a Tesla. The planet is burning, and flooding, and animal agriculture is a bigger source than all transport combined according to the UN FAO. Curious: Why would you add to the problem, instead of...

    2019 Model S Performance; FSD, Very Low Miles, 8-yr/100k Warranty

    As we have an incoming Model S (eventually), we just listed our MS Perf on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334087602278 (Or search under Item #334087602278.) With 21" Arachnids, and the 8-year/100k Tesla ESA/Warranty, it compares VERY well with the "No, you can't see, touch, or drive it...

    All discussion of QuantumScape QS

    Be wary of any startup--when does their lockup expire? That MIGHT be a better time to buy shares. I have no knowledge, one way or another, of QS.

    Hooray! Newly Certified Body Shop in DFW: Advantage Autoworks

    Hello All Texas Drivers in DFW, Alas, on occasion we have had to use body shops, but all of them in the DFW area that are certified to work on Teslas are on the "other" side of Hwy 360. Even from the Mid-Cities, they are a long drive due to traffic and distance. For many years we had used...

    Why are Uber/Lyft drivers still driving ANY ICE vehicles?!?

    Okay, not to be rude, but I sometimes feel as though we have a few too many people around that are just plain stupid or beyond ignorant. Now that Tesla/Elon has transitioned from "Top-of-the-Line P100D's loaners," to "What did the Uber driver show up with?" I just rode with two Uber drivers...

    WTB: 21" Arachnid wheels (and poss tires)

    Much prefer anyone selling near the DFW/North Texas area, but can possibly travel if you're near a city served by major airline. With many looking to receive an unwanted referral gift, why not turn that package into cash? I'll cover shipping--I'll be picking them up:-) Thanks! Mark

    New, unused, Arachnid wheels; DFW area

    Looking to buy a set of new 21" Arachnid wheels for our Model S. Prefer local to DFW area, but able to buy anyplace that's within a non-stop flight from DFW as well. No wasted time with advertising and listing on eBay, shipping, etc.

    Why can't we charge our Teslas directly from PW, DC to DC?!?

    This is currently posted on the PW FAQ: Can Powerwall charge my Tesla vehicle or an EV? Yes, Powerwall can provide stored solar energy to your EV through your home electrical panel. However, there is no direct connection between Powerwall and the EV wall connector. Powerwall FAQs Color me...

    How much more damage will Remarketing do to Tesla sales before they figure it out?!?

    I have to vent; please forgive the length of this rant but I can't stand it when otherwise smart people do stupid things. As TSLA stockholders and big time supporters of Tesla's goal of accelerating the transition to sustainable transport, we buy a lot of Teslas. Thus far, we've purchased five...

    INC FED TAX CREDIT--Need 97,390 signatures by May 2!

    Want to SWAP: Our Grey 21" for your Silver 21" (Staggered)

    It must be a generational thing, but don't really like the look of our October, 2015 Model S P90D 21" Grey wheels; would prefer the Silver wheels instead. Thus, would like to swap our greys for your silvers as I think the match is better on a Midnight Grey MS. Ours have about 4k miles and are...

    Cowspiracy/veganism/Tesla interior

    We've had a couple of the environmentally-friendly, cruelty-free, vegan steering wheels thus far; they look just like the ones where they blow the brains out of sentient beings, then "treat" the skins with toxic chemicals that make people sick and destroy the environment (after the cows have...

    Your help needed: "FOR" Votes for 2015 TSLA Prop 3 and 4

    Leather options - Environmental / Ethical

    Beware prbl fraud w/sale: "Signature" Model S, P02618 (Mods--perhaps we need a sub-forum on probable fraudulent sales, especially as the cars migrate to second owners? This is the 3rd one I've seen like this!) BUYER BEWARE: This used car dealer is attempted to pass off a base Model S, one...

    Animal Activism

    Texex91, since you're changing your order anyway, have you considered dropping the leather interior? It's a long story, but my original MS order was cancelled when Tesla had some bone-headed requirements to murder cows and sit on their skins for certain options. I tried to meet with Elon in...
