    Rivian’s Early Offerings Include 7-Seater SUV

    I’ve never drive a tank and didn’t mean to offend tank drivers. The independent electric motors create new driving possibilities. The Tesla tech feels dated and limited in my 2 year old S, call me crazy. Also I’m not paid by Rivian. I like their direction and hope they make it to production...

    Rivian’s Early Offerings Include 7-Seater SUV

    I saw these vehicles on Friday at the LA auto show and was very impressed. These have lots of cool tech and features and the quad motors with tank steering is next level stuff. Hope Tesla pays attention and ups their tech and interior offerings.

    Free Destination Charging: 50x L2 80A Stations @ Caltech, Pasadena, CA

    I charged yesterday morning and didn't notice a 1 hour limit. Purposely charged just over 60 mins to see if there was.

    (4) Vorsteiner VFF-103 lightweight 20 in wheels

    Great price and surprised these haven't sold yet. Maybe if you list the width size, offset and weight that would help move them along.

    Show off your aftermarket wheels.

    Thanks for the constructive feedback. The day CA doesn't require actual HOV stickers and does plate scanning, I'll happily take them off.

    Vendor Introducing Avant Garde Wheels A.R.T. M600-Series

    I have nothing but great things to say about Jason and his knowledge on the perfect fitment for Teslas. The set of M621's Jason helped me with are great and am very happy with them. My car is on coil suspension and here is a picture after the drop

    Wheel Alignment in SoCal recommendations ?

    I had a great wheel alignment experience at Tire Central in San Gabriel. They charge $80 for a 4 wheel alignment and have no issue working on Teslas. Most shops in the area either had issue working on Teslas or on a lowered Tesla. Tire Central is used to working on exotics and modified cars...

    Sound won't work

    @2virgule5 I suspected the issue might have been with something in the latest updated because the EQ was updated. It took 2 reboots and on the first I heard a pop in the speaker so I knew I was getting close. When I discussed the issue with the Service Center I mentioned that and they told me...

    Sound won't work

    Glad I could help guys. It saved us all a trip to the service center and some angry passengers. I'm just happy it was a Tesla issue and not my aftermarket subwoofer

    Sound won't work

    Solarman - glad you were able to get your sound back. Not having sound was a bit eerie to me. My Service Center said that there is a bug in the latest firmware and in the last update the EQ was updated. Not sure why or what would cause all of the sound to be muted but definitely EQ related...

    Sound won't work

    After 3 days of no sound, I was able to get my sound to come back by doing the following: 1. From the Music menu, go to your equalizer. Move each of the 5 settings from its current position to a different position, doesnt matter up or down. Stay on the EQ settings 2. Then perform a scroll reset...

    Problem: No Audio at all

    Same thing happened to me yesterday and I also have an aftermarket subwoofer. We will see what the service center says about the issue and aftermarket parts.

    Pics/info on Toddler Seat for back of a MS

    We have a Recaro Performance Sport for our 4 year old. This model doesn't have a big base like the others and it is clipped into the seat anchors behind the passenger seat. It is very secure and easy to install and take out. Let me know if you need pictures Amazon.com : RECARO Performance...

    Who Is Offering The Best Insurance Rates?

    Liberty Mutual charges me $1,211 for an annual policy with $100k/300k/100k BI limits, $1,000 comp/collision deductibles. That includes a multi car discount, homeowners discount and Alumni discount

    Where do you put your change?

    I keep my change in a coin wallet and the wallet in the glove box. Don't get me started on the lack of interior storage compartments.

    Chevy Bolt - 200 mile range for $30k base price (after incentive)

    I saw the Bolt yesterday at the LA Auto show. It's quite a bit smaller than what I would have expected. The quality is comparable to a Honda Fit. I doubt those on the fence between the two would take the Bolt unless you need an economical EV now.

    Looks great, thanks for posting additional pictures! I have wheels on order through Avant Garde but am considering these as a backup set

    Do you have any more pictures that you can post? Someone mentioned the offset being low and the wheels sticking out a bit. Thanks

    AC Recirc not working and AC not as cold as prior to 8.0?

    Glad I wasn't the only one going crazy, I noticed exhaust fumes on the drive in today and thought a the sunroof was cracked open or something. I always leave it on recirculating air since I have breathing issues. Tesla fix this now!

    Electricians Ripping Off EV Owners

    I got quoted $300 by the electrician who re-wired our house a few years ago - The Electric Connection. Panel is on the other side of the wall so no cost to run any wire or conduit. Even at that price did a DIY and all is well.

    Thanks for the clarification. I still stand by that the Pasadena area is lacking in superchargers.

    Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

    You might be right, might be a destination charger. Here's where the back lot is and where they keep 8-10 test drive cars. They share the lot with a parking facility

    Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

    Agreed - San Diego and the Pasadena area are both lacking in Supercharging locations. I don't understand why the Pasadena store, which has superchargers in the back lot, doesn't open this location up for charging. Hope to see more locations open up before the Model 3 comes out.

    Model S Owners With Kids!

    In addition to the seat mat for under the car seat, I have a cover that protects the back of the passenger seat from footprints and scratches. It alleviated my stress whenever our son would kick the back of the seat - on purpose or "accidentally"

    Question for facelift S60-S60D owners charging to 100%

    I charge to 100% here and see no issues. I have no concerns charging to 100% based on how fast the supercharging charges at for the last 20%, just a little drop off in amps and volts.

    Show off your aftermarket wheels.

    Im digging the setup, what offset and size tires are you running? What suspension and any rubbing? The meatier tire size looks great. I may have to reconsider the Avant Gardes I was going to order in 21" to 20"

    Happy with base Model S 60 with no upgrades?

    I purchased a S60 with only the autopilot and pano sunroof. Standard seats were recommended to me because we have a toddler. Nextgen seats and air suspension were being considered but ultimately did not see the value of $2.5k for each. I'm happy with the car so far and do not miss any of the...

    How optioned out is the loaner? Sad that others have banged up the wheels.
