    Extending/Converting exisiting Nema 10-30R to Nema 14-50R

    I know that this thread is old...but here goes. I have condo that has a 10-30R outlet for a dryer in the garage. Is this the same as 10-30? I looked at the 10-30 adapter on the Tesla website and it looks as if it would fit it perfectly. Thanks!

    Supercharger - San Juan Capistrano, CA (7 V2 stalls)

    Very happy that the SC is finally open. Two things that are annoying. First, 3 of the spots are shared parking with the bank. Also, 5 of the spots require you to back in.

    Center display spontaneously reboots?

    Yeah, I realized that but it should not have taken a full minute of sitting in the seat to turn the car back on.

    Before I place my order

    Congrats on making your final decision! You'll love your car. Two things I wanted to point out though. It seems that you are counting on using the superchargers. I've never used one yet, but from what I hear, there can be lines at some of them so they are not as convenient as they could be...

    Center display spontaneously reboots?

    I've only had my S for about a month. The first week or two, everything was fine. After upgrading to 5.9, I had 2 or 3 screen reboots. I also had and instance where the car turned off...Here's the story. We were pulling into pay parking lot. My wife couldn't reach out far enough to get the...

    I am also a "brisk" kind of guy! :)

    Before I place my order

    I never do 85 but can't squeeze out 200 because I have hills to contend with. :)

    Before I place my order

    I would definitely get the 85. Here is the break down of my take on the range of my 85. The quoted range is 300 miles on some of the specs sheets, but this is bogus because to get that, you have to drive 55 mph. The quoted range for 85 on the configuration page is 265. This is more realistic...

    Color indecision

    I think all of the colors are great but for me, the best combo was Multicoat Red with carbon fiber spoiler, grey rims, and red calipers.

    Correct tool and instructions for removing the Model S nose cone

    Thanks for the info. I've been trying to find out how to remove the nosecone so that I can mount my tollroad transponder on the inside. This will help greatly!

    Supercharger - San Juan Capistrano, CA (7 V2 stalls)

    I'm starting to think that it will never happen. I'm treating it like the lottery...if I win, great...but I'm not holding my breath.

    Brand new Tesla has a weird sound (video included)!

    Got my car about two days ago. Just today I noticed a weird sound coming from the front of the car while backing up. You can hear it in the video below. It's kind of a grinding vibrating sound. Has anyone had this experience? If so, what was the cause? Thanks...

    Why Tesla could become the Microsoft of the auto industry

    As a Tesla shareholder and soon to be MS owner (delivery scheduled for February), I'm long on Tesla. While I do agree that the Big Three have tons of resources compared to Tesla, their strength is also their weakness. I compare them to Blackberry. At one point Blackberry dominated the...

    First post ever! Test drive coming up and I'm actually nervous!

    So I did the test drive. Drove a P85+. The acceleration WAS impressive. It felt like I was in a rocket. Stepped on the pedal and my head was pushed back. Just for the acceleration and tech alone, the car is worth $100+ to me. There are a few disappointments though. I thought that the...

    First post ever! Test drive coming up and I'm actually nervous!

    I've been thinking about getting an S for a year now. Was just waiting for my old car to drop dead before I plunk down the $100k for an S. Well, my car is not quite dead yet, but close enough. Decided that it's time to pull the trigger. As expected, I am excited but I'm also nervous. On the...
