    Charging/Parking in downtown Seattle (near the Washington State Convention Center)

    I park at Pacific Place for my daily commute. There are a number of Chargepoint stalls and I've never seen all of them in use. I think it's $2 for 8 hours and I've gotten about 18 miles/hr charging there. It's a few blocks from the Convention Center and not sure if they have a day rate or if it...

    New Windows Phone Tesla App

    Perfect.Thanks, Castor. It was the car with the DND sign that had me wondering. Really like the live tile implementation and the scheduling feature--both really do take it above an beyond the Android app. My Tesla was the only reason I switched to Android, but your app and Tesla Connect have...

    New Windows Phone Tesla App

    Thanks, castor! Just installed the app today and am really liking it so far. Is there a legend somewhere on what all the status icons are on the live tile?

    They list pricing on their site: http://metropolitandetail.com/services/film/paint-protection/ (Pricing button) My full front mask was $100 more than the listed starting price.

    Firmware 5.0

    You're going to get your choice. I just got an update and went from 5.0 to 5.6 (1.45.32). I'm in the U.S., VIN 196XX and took delivery about a month ago. My car is one that has the GPS problems and I've written to ownership about them (e.g. Nav thinking I'm in the middle of a lake, headed the...

    Full body wrap in Seattle area?

    I just had a full front wrap (XPEL) at Metropolitan Detail along with Crystalline tint. You can find places to do it cheaper, but I don't know about better. They were wrapping two other Teslas when I dropped mine off and I was impressed with their work. Hadn't planned on the wrap (just tint and...

    Yakima Charging

    Thanks for the post. I've been wondering about Yakima. My in-laws live there and while I should be able to charge on a 110v outlet in their driveway, that'll be pretty slow and on short trips I don't know how much I'll be able to recharge before having to turn around and head back. I'll have an...

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Thanks for letting me know, deonb. And funny you should mention the city being built for SUVs. A year ago when I moved to Sammamish, I went to a McDonald's drive-thru and was sandwiched between monster SUVs and the drive-by windows were higher than the roof of my car. I'm coming from MR-2's...

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Obviously, I don't have a MS yet, but parking there every day I can tell you that I've never seen every EV charging station filled, so that shouldn't be an issue. If you have the standard suspension and exit on the 7th Ave. side, I'd be curious to hear if you have any problem with clearance.

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Thanks, dfitz206. It seems like the only people who bottom out entering off 7th are going too fast. But exiting, a surprising number seem close to scraping on the way out. If air suspension is what it takes to keep my car from scraping every day, that alone would justify the extra expense.

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Thanks for the insights. I hadn't really thought about the Tesla store in Portland, but that's a great point. I'm hoping once we actually have a MS, it won't take long to convince my wife that it's a better road trip choice than her fuel inefficient SUV--having all the charging options covered...

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    What situations are you guys running into where you wish you had the twin chargers? I was planning on the S85, which should give me plenty of range to cover my commute and any side trips on most days. And I figured on road trips, I'd be aiming for recharging at Superchargers anyway, since I'm...

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Thanks for the responses. I'm going to stick with the standard suspension then. Can't wait to order.

    Pacific Place (Seattle) Ground Clearance?

    Have any Model S owners with the standard suspension and 19" wheels parked at Pacific Place and exited on the 7th Ave. side? I park at Pacific Place for work every day and before I order my MS, I wanted to make sure I didn't need to order the air suspension to be able to make it out of the...
