Didn't know we were on the list. Sioux Falls is growing and I think it would benefit from a supercharger. Right now charging is set up more for an east-west route. I think one in SF would help with the north-south. We have an HPWC at home so charging in town isn't an issue. It mainly when...

I've put our car up for sale through a local consignment arrangement. They haven't quite got the ad complete yet but thought I'd post the link. Sioux Falls, SD 2014 Tesla Model S Used Sedan Frankman Motor Company | P33298 | 5YJSA1H18EFP33298 We are selling because we recently moved to Sioux...

I've used Dependable Auto Shippers for terminal-terminal open transport and been pleased with the service. We are also moving our Model S to South Dakota from Virginia in January and I plan to use Interstate. They have a good reputation with exotic owners at 6speed. My quote for ~1200 miles...

We have four children and our 85 is our family car (replaced a minivan). My 3 and 5 year old ride in the third row on a daily basis. I don't exactly regret them - like most I just wish the ventilation was better. We have CR40 on our rear glass and it still gets warm on long trips (our...

Mike Calloway with Premere Auto Detailing. Did our detail and opticoat as well as my classic MB. Has done work for several friends as well.

I was in Raleigh a few months ago in a hotel without a charger but Raleigh has a very well maintained public charging system and spots are not ICE'd because they can be ticketed. I used the Wetlands one because we were staying in Garner and it worked great. Even if the hotel plug is a flop the...

There is a strap with a velcro fastener that keeps them from doing that.

I got some paint transfer from a rub against the garage and it came out with goo b gone.

We have had the same Thule box since 2003. We use it ALOT (though haven't tried it on the Tesla). It has stood up to all kinds of weather and we don't baby it. I may end up going with a trailer but if I decided on a roof box I would get another Thule.

We do the 495 east leg a lot since we are in Fort Belvoir and my in laws in Maryland. At that time you can expect stop and go coming through landover. It's not terrible by dc standards but not great either but WAY better than the westbound inner loop even with the express lanes. Don't fall for...

Sure. I'm in Fort Belvoir but if you PM me your contact info I can text you the next time I'm up your way which is fairly frequent.

We had Mike from Premere Auto Detailing come out to the house today to correct and opti-coat our new Model S and detail the exterior of my Mercedes 560SL. He arrived early, worked for almost 9 hours without a break, and was extremely courteous. Very happy with the results. He wasn't the...

The car was detailed very well. None of the paint issues I've seen posted previously. There was a small area on the headliner that needed to be cleaned and some "fraying" of the headliner at the pano roof which was trimmed. While it was parked, it picked up some bird droppings. Interior was...

Murdo Made it out to Murdo today. Murdo has two exits 192 and 191. The SC is located about halfway between them so that's why the Tesla directions call for a different exit depending on your direction of travel. The site is pretty convenient. The immediate area is gravel - not sure if paving...

In SD for work and made the drive from Sioux Falls to Pierre last night. STopped off at the Mitchell SC. Pic isn't great but overall I'm happy its here but wished for a better location. It's easy to find. Between the DQ and Goodwill, set back from the road. Below are my thoughts but keep in...

Look. This was just a friendly invitation. Maybe meet a local owner, have a beer, etc. I don't really care if anyone wants to charge their car or not. Mods, feel free to delete this thread. Seems to be getting blown out of proportion.

Ok. So that post didn't go quite the way I thought. It's a NEMA 14-50R. The "40" was a typo. You also made a lot of assumptions in your polite and considerate response.

Just finished installing a NEMA 14-40 40 amp outlet for our March delivery. Plan on adding the HPWC when it arrives. If anyone lives/visits/or drives through the Fort Belvoir area I'd love to try my outlet on a real, live Model S. Please PM me if interested.

Our Model S was my wife's idea. To each his/her own but what "soccer mom" doesn't want 7 passenger seating in a luxury sedan?

Planning a move as well. Plycar states on their website they are they are the only approved authorized Tesla transporters. Got a quote from them about $1/mile from DC to South Dakota.

I'll be in Pierre this weekend. I'll ask around and see if there is one planned in the Vivian area.

Cool. We are planning a move to Sioux Falls with our Model S. Glad to see progress. I think I see a 2016 red dot around Vivian.

Thanks for the entry. We are planning a move to Sioux Falls and our Model S is in production so interested to hear your experiences in the midwest (or planet Hoth as my friends call it).

How do I comment on blogs? Am I missing something obvious? Need a minimum post count?
