Nice trip report, agree about the need for more Superchargers in this neck of the woods. I'm glad I titled the car in Florida, don't have to deal with the front license plate and Texas inspection stickers, which take up half of the front windshield.

0-5%. I live life on the edge.

Old Blue / black with no pano in San Antonio. Yes, it gets very hot inside, even with the best heat resistant tint I could get, but a couple of minutes with the a/c on, even with no pre-cooling, gets the temp down fast. When I bought, I heard not so good stories of wear on tan seats, so I went...

Darren, Kushari: both of you cars look fantastic, and I am seriously considering this myself. Question: Did you dip your sills? If not, how does it look? I am starting with the blue/black color and want to go matte light metallic copper or blue-ish. I don't think there would be too much of...

Darren, I have CQuartz on my car (had it applied in 2013), and I would guess that this would not stick. Thoughts? Also, I am here in Texas in 100 degree weather. Is the cure time pretty fast-ish? Closest dealer is in Houston, about 3 hours away. Thanks.

I like the garage door opener idea. I always seem to hit the homelink main button when trying to open or close the garage door.

Absolutely. There are so many things the car just does right: regen braking so I don't have to use brake pads that wear out to slow down; software updates; the promise of apps for the car; the fluidity of the driving experience...the list goes on. Plus not having to waste time at the gas...

Keeping my plain old 2013 85 for another while yet. The autopilot feature might be fun, but can it compensate for the D-bags on the road here in Texas?

Got rid ot both of my ICE cars, one as a trade in for the MS, the second a few months after delivery. Have not regretted the decision.

I have to second nkohlimd. I have a Blue/Black MS and I purchased the Black mats with Navy Blue piping. Could not be happier. Jerry was awesome to work with: he sent me many pictures of different designs and colors and we discussed the options at length over the phone. Mats were made and...

A few of my friends/co-workers are very interested in getting one...I will let them know there is a beautiful, top of the line model one available RIGHT NOW at an incredible price and only an hour North.

Don't want to get in your business but is there someone in the area you trust with keeping the car for you? How about driving it to stay with family?

AD Air Force 1998 - Present

I guess this proves its a safe car. Heaven forbid I get hit by a drunk driver, but if I did, I know the car could take it.

Had the same thing with mine too a few times. Another time, car would not leave sleep mode. Had to do a reset then power off/power on. Working the bugs out...

Very clever...Nice job

Next was probably going to be an Audi S6, so about $10 more for the MS.

Any updates to this? Taxes are due / are not due for EVs?

Thats a pretty darn sweet car! Where are you detail guys at? I am definitely going to need some pros to get out the swirls...

Awesome color combo (Blue / Black here too...)! Congrats and enjoy the heck out of it!

Awesome shot!

Any owner regular get togethers?

Awesome...I didn't really want to drive to Austin for any issues that come up...

Looks pretty sharp. I have a family member in OC that has a MS; I will have to let him know about Rolotech. Thanks for the info.

I was thinking of full wrap for the car. Whats the average life of the 3M? Any concerns with yellowing, peeling, etc.? How easy is it to take off?

Competition is always good: drive down prices, drive up quality. Though GM has its work cut out for them if they want to compete with the pure enjoyment and beauty of the Tesla. Bring it on...

Hm, that might be better than carpeted floor mats for me. Thanks for the info.

PM'd you to try and find details about this...

Silver and black is a great color combination..congrats!

Thats pretty sharp...the tiny color swatches in the stores/galleries don't do it justice.

I agree. Another thing that I was thinking would be nice, on the US/Europe map, have an actual picture of the Supercharger location that you select. That way you know what to expect when you are driving there (if that was online too, that would be great...)

How do you like the winter mats? I have not seen them in person, but I have used WeatherTech products before, and I like them. Any issues with these? Good fit?

I could see this working out well. With the amount of crappy "limos" I see frequently, it would be a nice change to have a classy car to be chauffeured around in.

Congrats!! Mine was ready for early delivery too...I was (almost) not ready for it.

Try Tintdude forums at: http://www.tintdude.com I have not used American Standard before. After doing some research on a few brands, decided on 3M Crystalline. Seems to have high ratings for other, high end cars, and MS's as well. Good luck.

I installed the Gladiator wall tracks for my other garage items. Its right above where I put the outlet, so I use a Gladiator hook.

When it arrives, plan is to sell the truck and use this as daily driver and only car. Work is close by (~10 mi) and plans to drive all over the place on the weekends.

Hopefully stories like this will help change this outdated law. I can't tell you what a pain in the a$$ it has been to purchase the MS in Texas. Many thanks to all of the TMC individuals who went out of their way to make the process as smooth as possible.

Air Force O-4, O-5 in 2 months. Flying type (Navigator). Now the fun begins trying to get charge stations on base...
