Thanks guys. Brit, that sounds about like what she had... same as we get from our HPWC. I told her just to unplug and go to DAB or Ocala and get what she needs for the rest of the way home. Thanks again.

Just so the thread police don't give me a citation, Im starting a thread to ask this question. My wife is returning from a trip and stopped at the St Augustine SC with 54miles of range left on our S85. It stopped charging after a few minutes. AMPS are fluctuating from 78 to 200 to 180 to...

Update on the tirerack rims. While they are 10spoke turbines they aren't exactly like oem. I guess I need a set of 4 spares as I can't run mismatched rims :scared: They did come with new lugnuts and a 21mm adapter to install them.

It might be more accepted in Co to park in multiple spots. The outback near us is always packed, parking in multiple spots would certainly upset someone, so I just drop the family off at the door and park in the back 40 away from any and everything :biggrin:. 17 people who got brilliantly...

30 March 2015 2302 local time: The Valet at the Hilton Orlando lake Buena Vista got over 40MPH before I dropped my luggage and took this screenshot. He was having fun from what I could tell by the speed bursts. This was nowhere near the valet lot which is ~100yards from the front door, and...

Thats about $570 worth of ouch, if you don't fix the rim. Ask me how I know :crying: About a year ago Marlena at the Tampa SC told me they have a rim exchange program, (a repaired rim, then they have yours repaired and sell it to the next guy) I can't remember the price but it was less than...

+100 dunno +100

SO TRUE, We had a couple that we've been friends with since high school pretty much stop talking to us. When confronted, "that car" came up a few times. They choose to not remember the time I lived in a hangar, showered with cold tap water through a garden hose, flew WWII vintage freighters 5...

Thanks man, longtime no type :) in the selection on TR it asks about 85 and if they're staggered, mine is the old '13 so prob not the new versions. Thoughts?

Since Tire Rack has been mentioned here a couple of times, has anyone had any issues with their TPMS not linking up to the Tesla? Any tips/tricks or do they just work? I want a couple of mounted/balanced on the shelf ready for spares as my wife had two incidents already (road FOD, not curbs)...

And before their first motorcycle in 1929, it was airplane engines... The BMW Roundels True History and Origin - YouTube Im with ya MHPR262, I rode a K100RS over 100k miles before selling it, and an R80Rt, Ducati 998. I guess I've never been in the mainstream of manufacturers of transportation.

I've experienced exactly what you described... some places are simply afraid of the car. I got a nail in a tire that had less than 1000 miles on it (tesla doesnt repair tires). A shop I've gone to since I was a kid said no problem. I showed them "Jack Mode" and where to jack it up, the...

Heading up there from Tampa next month for about a week, good on SCs until Glen Allen... Then what? We can spend the night in between Glen Allen and Snowshoe but it looks bad for being there (and getting out). I just don't see anything around there for charging. After 150mi thru mountains, in...

You mean this one? We actually live in Palm Harbor but Im based in NJ. We are season pass holders to WDW so the Epcot charger is great for us because Palm Harbor-WDW-Palm Harbor at I-4 speed can get tight without charging. NJ charged 0% sales tax on EVs, no inspection, and the tag is good...

I am participating in the MS150... A 150+Mile 2-day bicycle ride. Are there any other Tesla owners riding this year? I plan to use the Port Orange and St Augustine SCs, arriving Friday and heading back to Tampa on Sunday. I'd love to meet with up other owners. Stephen

I'm guessing neither of you are fans of Tetris... You could have bought sooo much more stuff.

P85 in Bruge, Belgium the other day, unfortunately it appeared to have been keyed.

Aaron, I know you've had your hitch for a while, what kind of range hit are you seeing? Im 80/20 for the hitch vs racks, I have a Thule bike box for air travel which also would strap down to racks (thats why racks get 20%). Thanks

Took my MS85 in for a few punch list items, they gave me a P85 as a loaner. On my return trip home, ~30miles, the following happened... Cresting an overpass of a limited access, 8 lane divided highway, I entered the revenue enhancing "45mph zone"... cruising at 63mph (and being passed by...

First and foremost, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wife for a full and speedy recovery. One of the main sponsors was Day's Collision. A body shop my parents owned from '72 - '98 then sold to my dad's niece who is in the middle of her chemo treatments. It was a fun time even...

Rained off/on the better part if the day. I think they said nearly 100 cars showed up including A corvette club ~14 cars, a camaro club ~10 cars, mustang club ~10 cars and ~10 monster trucks and with all those American made cars/trucks my Tesla took "Best in Show Domestic". I'm a little biased...

I'm planning on taking my car to this show and was wondering if any others might want to attend...

Fellow Tesla owners, I need to appeal to your good nature and Tesla-enthusiasm... On March 26 or 27 we will be traveling to FSU from the Clearwater area to visit the campus for our oldest daughter (LAWSTEVE this is for you ;^). Public chargers in the capitol area are pretty sparse, and none...

Oh yea, the world should be made out of "black box" material not x-pel

Thank you retinadoc (and all the other responders). My wife and I were talking today if we had been 1-2 seconds earlier to the scene the projectile would have come right through her window, that was rolled down, and hit her square in the head. LIFE ALTERING. Extremely thankful, Steve

I put in these, and this was installed when we had the Tahoe, both aid in parking. I line the nose up with the Tesla art & sign. The Leaf got booted out of the garage to the driveway when the Tesla arrived, so the Tesla only has to share the garage with the golf cart.

Driving on a busy 8 lane divided highway yesterday, windows down, pano open, just a great day with my wife when I look over briefly and see lawn maintenance crews on working the roadside. It was as if time slowed down, I see the inevitable unfolding... WHAMMM!! A big rock flew across my hood and...

Unfortunately, we don't get as much time or freedom to greet the customers as we used to. However, a little ways into a ~12-13hr flight he noticed something that needed to be brought to our attention. He handed a sheet of paper with his finding as well as a few of his accomplishments...

Great write up!! I hit the same SCs (-SAV, St Augustine) driving from Newark NJ to Palm Harbor FL, You were right down the road from us. That Best Western has some negative write ups on ChargePoint saying employees ICE the Charging Station spots and don't like EVs taking them, anything like...

WRT "competing" LOL I saw the 916 pic OUCH!! couple hundred hrs in an RV4 and a couple thousand in BE-18s down in OPF (both conventional gear) I think any 50yo airplane should be migrated to "EXPERIMENTAL". You'll have to promise to go easy on me, I've been a 1-2G guy for many years :scared...

If you are serious... IN A HEARTBEAT!!! Do you compete? If so what class? I flew with a guy who competes Sportsman in an Extra, he lives in DAB. Here's the extent of my Extra experience (I still work for the man)

I recently had the pleasure of having Mark on one of my flights. Spent ~45 mins talking with him about MM and other topics. Great guy with incredible visions/goals/projects. He was kind enough to bring the techno-speak of many topics down to a level a pilot could understand :confused:. After...

Story "Her father hit a cable barrier on U-S 169, north of I-694 during snowy morning commute Thursday. The spinning tires erupted in flames, and then ignited leaking fuel. Maple Grove fire crews were still in route when Maple Grove Police Officer Jesse Mathwig arrived at the scene." This was...

'02 998 BiPost (former) I had Mark Seeger on one of my flights a couple of weeks ago. I have been following Mission Motorcycles for a while, but now, I think I've reduced my Christmas list to one item... A Mission R

Not really, my wife is a stay at home mom, my daughter drives a leaf and the tesla scares her. The "teenage driver" comment was tongue in cheek (but if my parents had a car like this when I was a kid I know I would've snuck it out). The camera is motion activated and the video is saved in the...

BINGO, as my career dictates me being out of town quite a bit. (anyone else have teenaged drivers in the house?) My friend at told me to let him know if anyone showed interest in it (camera version, or not).

Nah, the Ducati eats Ninjas for breakfast, it's the Harley crowd I worry about :wink: Thanks Hussain

I had a friend of mine take an idea I had and make it a reality. I wanted a nice Tesla logo in my garage but also wanted a concealed camera. I'm picking it up tomorrow, a beautiful red/black Tesla logo with a DLink wireless camera hidden inside. Picking it up tomorrow. If anyone knows how...

Met some friends for a mini-birthday celebration at a local micro-brewery, seating is outside next to the parking. I got a spot right next to the seating area where a group of people a few years our senior were sitting and had obviously been there a while. A rather robust guy asks if my car is...

I believe there is a "special place" for those who break the commandments in a place of worship. Your restraint in this matter is extremely commendable. Especially with the technology to track so readily available and those paid to "serve and protect" so willing to do neither. It's great that...

The wives bought the boys 3 laps in Lamborghinis for Christmas. At the end of our 3 laps, I took my Model S and a friend took his Bullit Mustang. I turned better times in the tesla than I did in the Lambo, shaved 6seconds from my first to my last lap in the tesla. My buddy Bill (it was really...

I'm "on call" the 19th, but if the phone doesn't ring, I'm in. Edit... I'm no longer "on call", so I'm in.

While on my layover I looked up the tesla store here in Tokyo. Turns out it was only about a 30-40min walk, so I decided to head over there. I arrived about 10mins before they opened but it was no big deal, it's right near the imperial gardens... Anyway had a bit of a language barrier, but in...

They're Gator Girls but said they'd trade my gray 85 for your red P85 :biggrin:

Flying back from Tokyo on Friday night (talked my daughters into cleaning my MS), hope to make it Saturday and meet you guys/girls. how many Teslas are expected, or normally show? - - - Updated - - - Add pilot Steve to your list, I'm planning on coming this Saturday too.

Great way to get those last bits of fun out of terminal tires :biggrin: I guess Tesla doesn't like to track straight in the burn outs. Looks as if you've found a Replacement for Displacement LOL. is this behind the Tampa SC?

Voted, and Im liking the results so far: I wonder why the Tesla is MY 2012, when the rest are 2013 and 2014. 2013 Tech Car of the YearWhich of these cars should be CNET's 2013 Tech Car of the Year? [*=left]2014 Acura MDX 5% [*=left]2014 Chevrolet Spark EV 2% [*=left]2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid...

or... TESLA DISPLACEMENT REPLACEMENT

^^THIS^^ Hear Hear 77 As well as it being one of the Hottest, Classiest, Fastest, Most Elegant, Grin Inducing cars on the market. It's like the girlfriend you're allowed to bring home - and your wife likes her too =) (too much?)

I like it... to tag on those, maybe "The NEW American Muscle"
