    Wisconsin Supercharger Discussion & Tracking

    Now that the 2015 Packers schedule is out, I need to pick my games to road trip from Minneapolis. If GB and Wausau come online soon, I'd be ecstatic!

    Tesla leasing getting screwed

    How much did you have to put down and then over how many years do you have to make those payments? Probably 6 or 7. A lease is only 3 years of payments, with relatively little down, and after the 3 years, one is free to move on to a different vehicle. Teslas will probably be levitating by the...

    GPS aware side mirrors

    I love the idea of GPS folding mirrors. Connecting it with HomeLink solves one potential use, however I don't need to fold my mirrors at home, and maybe there are others similarly situated. I have an awesome dedicated parking stall at work that is between a column and a wall. It's great that I...

    Vanity plate choice -- "NIKOLA"?

    I don't have much input on the Nikola choice, but I can see how your TMC handle actually could be misconstrued in a tiresome way. At least by teenage boys. :wink:

    Sci-Fi Faves...

    I strongly recommend the BBC series Black Mirror which can be streamed on Netflix. Each episode is a stand-alone story showing what might happen if technology goes wrong or too far. Fantastic, dark, thought-provoking stuff.

    Album Art now missing except for Slacker under 6.1

    I've also noticed post 6.1 on USB that on some tracks, the artist name no longer is listed. Side question: any way to rename the USB drives other than USB1 and USB2?

    Firmware 6.0

    I received a suggestion for an alternative route, using back roads instead of the highway from my work location to home. Thing is, I always take the back roads home. I know that I can turn off the suggestions, but I am curious to see if the system will recognize my usual commute and stop...

    Firmware 6.0

    On .11 I noticed that, on Slacker, the bar showing the song length and remaining song length never moved past 0:00, although the song played normally. This has been fixed with .13

    Repairing Crease in Frunk

    Did the SC admit that it happened during its care? If so, I'd expect the SC to pay for a proper repair.

    Vendor Protect your Key - Silicone FobPockets now in stock!

    Ok ... I don't have my MS yet but I ordered the original Fobpocket. Then I ordered the new/improved one. Then I ordered the leather one. Now I have to order a silicone one. Unless you intend to single-handedly save the postal service, can you give me a head's up of what may be next???

    Vendor T Sportline 19" TST Wheels For Sale Tesla Model S

    Is there a way to get the vehicle image on the 17" center screen to show the turbine wheels when those are installed? I realize it would likely be the 21" turbines in the pic.

    All Weather Mats only $200 full set at the Tesla Store

    Do the winter mats have a strong "rubbery" smell when brand new? If so, I think I will order them now so that they can air out a bit until my car arrives in a month :smile:

    Ask Me Anything -- Motor Trend's Jonny Lieberman Defends Picking the Benz

    I didn't ask a question because I didn't read your review. It was more of a general comment to participate in what will undoubtedly become a classic thread. :tongue: I had a CL600, then when the kids got too big, I downgraded to an E550. I was seriously considering (and test drove) the new S550...

    Vendor T Sportline 19" TST Wheels For Sale Tesla Model S

    I ordered my MS with the standard 19" wheels and will definitely be getting snow tires for winter. I am considering the Tsportline silvers and am inclined to put the non-winter tires on them and use the Tesla 19" wheels for the snow tires. Or should I do the opposite? I'd love some style...

    Ask Me Anything -- Motor Trend's Jonny Lieberman Defends Picking the Benz

    Why does the charge port light turn off after the car locks?

    Sounds like people have conflicting desires, all of which could be accommodated through a software update someday.

    The Passion of the S

    Which emotion holds more passion "loooooooooovvvveeee" or "loooooovvvvvveeee"? I thoroughly agree with @GoBlue88. I have participated in forums before and slightly after buying other cars, but ultimately, the passion wanes. I am heartened by the continuing participation in the Model S...

    Model S - Trunk Lighting

    I am interested in the various solutions for lighting and appreciate the teslaccessories option as well as the cool homebrew methods. It's awesome to live in a country with free speech and a free market economy. This thread could use more of the latter, lol.

    Beekeeping

    It is possible to be a fiscal conservative, watch Fox News and lust over the Tesla S. Just sayin.

    Supercharger - Farmington, NM

    Classic! Living in MSP, I can say I'd much rather be in MPS! I remember once reading about a kid flying to Oakland who wound up in Auckland. (Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...)

    Supercharger - Farmington, NM

    Sorry for the nonsense post, but there is a city near Minneapolis named Farmington and I have now been fooled 5 times by reading "Farmington, NM" as "Farmington, MN" thinking we are getting an SC nearby!
