    Ironic summary in Smithsonian US On the Move exhibit

    I have been in DC the past few days and on Friday visited the Smithsonian Museum of American History. They have a huge display (rooms and rooms) delving into all the changes in the last century. The display explanations did venture into the 21st century, last item I saw was circa 2013, so...

    I Don't Think That's the Tesla We're Talking About

    We were driving down 89A in Sedona last night, and my wife suddenly says, "Wait, there's a Tesla Gallery in Sedona???". We discussed that there are very pricy houses in Sedona, but we didn't think there were enough people to justify bricks and mortar. On our way back after our errand we looked...

    "Vehicle Systems Very Hot. Charge Speed Reduced"

    This is a new one on me, and from the sounds of it was a new one on the Tesla support person I talked to. Thankfully everything on the car continued to appear to work normally, and Tesla couldn't see any problem from their end. Yesterday we were driving from Palm Springs / Quartzsite to...

    Spud's Elektrik Trek

    Hi everyone! This notification of a travel blog posting isn't really an introduction since I've been spending way too much time on TMC already but a) I didn't know where else to put it and b) this effort is my own personal introduction to blogging (so be kind!!).

    How many have had the "7 O'clock Stalker"?

    This is different from a Tesla Moment or Tesla Time because there's no interaction. So, you're driving along at whatever constant speed in a 2+ lane highway (or roadway) and a vehicle (car, truck, whatever) catches up to you from way behind, moves to or is already in the lane to your left, and...

    The Passion of the S

    I've read a lot, I mean a lot, of different owners on these threads who say how much they loooooooooovvvveeee their Model S more than any other car they've owned, and sometimes that's followed by a list of pretty impressive (well, not any more :-)) ICEs. I loooooovvvvvveeee my Model S too...

    Found a cheaper Drop In Center Console

    The standard cupholders in the armrest are in the exact place best for my right elbow to knock contents over (they don't call me "bull in a china shop" for nothing). Also my wife decided I bring too much crap into the car, and wanted some kind of "hiding" arrangement, with cupholders. We found...
