If you bring it in at 90, they need to 'test' your UMC and charging capabilities, so if it's near 90, they'll bump it up to 100, just to make sure there's no problems charging. they did that to mine, and that's what they said to me. I dont think there's any problems doing it for short...

Just a word of caution. I was installing mine via the gap between the review mirror, and the moon roof, and ran the cables via the inside of the car, just under the moonroof, to the driver panel. During my install, i loosed the moonroof's water running cable (the tubes that take the excess...

I think the growth of superchargers need to speed up immensely, especially with the growth of all the Model 3 cars. I foresee people taking advantage of the 'free power', to save ~$3-5 charging at home. I'm not sure how Tesla will combat that change, but people will charge because they can, and...

The signage says 'green plates', not green car. So if you drive a Tesla with blue plates, you run the risk of getting pulled over.

Hi Dave. I'm currently a Model S owner, and will be putting a deposit down for an Model 3, on Mar 31st. Not sure what my schedule will be like that day, but I'll definitely be swinging by the service center at least to say hello :)

Who's planning on working Thursday morning? I'm planning on dropping by :) hope to see some familiar faces!

My 2013 tesla breaks will 'squeak' when it gets a little wet. I was told that it's normal with high performance breaks.

Saw this at my local ToysRUs

My rear passenger door handle had the 'weird' noise, like it was scratching something, and Tesla replaced it. Last week, my driver handle started acting up, and would open after 2-3 pulls. I took this video yesterday: Tesla Model S door handle not opening - YouTube This morning, i had to...

looks great!!

I'm here. Having dinner with the family at swiss chalet

put me as tentative - depends on jr's food/sleep schedule

Congrats on your delivery. I see a bunch in the area, and at least 2 on my daily commute downtown. I wouldn't mind a meet up. good to put some faces to some of the cars in the area.

Stopped by Lawrence today to get a few things checked out. Spoke with Saad, and Jay. They've currently got ~35+ cars out back waiting for prep/clean/delivery. They just took delivery of 30+ cars this week alone. Hope you guys get your cars. See you all on the road :)

What are their monthly parking rates?

I saw the 70D in Beige in front of the Montreal Store on Saturday. other than the badge, and the color, there's nothing of noticeable difference.

I went to book on Apr 2nd, and got a date of Apr 21.

i got mine friday morning (installed friday night), and got valet mode, and played with the trip planner... my info is updated in the firmware tracker.

awesome. and thanks for the info. i'll be sure to grab some photos when i'm parked there!

I'm not seeing the option for photos at the ALT chargers? ALT HOTEL - MONTRÉAL GRIFFINTOWN | Montréal, QC | Electric Car Charging Station | PlugShare And Thanks Depeche Mode for correcting me that it's $23 a night for parking ONLY.

I'm staying at the ALT next Weekend (the 10-12 of April). it's $23 a night but free charging. I spoke with the hotel, and it's a public, underground parking. The hotel installed the chargers. I'll let you know how charging goes.

Thanks for bumping this thread! it coincides perfectly with my montreal trip that weekend! however, with that many teslas, will the Montreal SuperCharger be overloaded and we have to wait to charge?

Planning to visit Kingston this weekend. Will be stopping to charge up Saturday afternoon! hope to see some friends!

mknox... happens often? ;) but in all seriousness, i used to think that too, but over this winter i've gotten used to it, and wish it heated up my butt a little faster on those really cold mornings

Same here. i reported this to the lawrence SC, and they said it's normal when there's moisture.

When I bought my ModelS, i purchased all the floor mats, including the 3rd row jump seats. Now, I think I need the trunk mats. Tesla used to sell them separately, but not anymore. Tesla Gear Shop All-Weather Model S Trunk Set I don't need the 3rd row jump seats mats, just the trunk mats...

Also of note: the Lawrence location is also getting an overhaul soon too. Spoke with Saad on Monday evening, and I asked about their 'showcase wall' that they were supposed to get, to hold some Tesla merchandise. He said that they're going to be overhauling the store. Not sure when or how it's...

Then you dont have to worry about it being in Demo mode or not :P

Congrats! See you on the roads!

Mine looks like this: I'm in Markham. Installed ~March 2014, and got my rebate.

Not to sound ungrateful, but where is 'there'? are you referring to the Barrie location?

Update for the xmas season: Vaughan Mills now has 2 EV/Hybrid/Zipcar/Car Pool Members at every entrance. Was there yesterday.. got iced by an Audi Q5 from the New York. Parking at 5A (near the Nike store, in the new 'wing' of the mall) has 4 charging spots. I asked Guest Services, if you're...

There are a few tables at the back of the store (near the servicing area). Sometimes, if you're lucky, there's donuts or muffins back there.

I got mine done at Autolink. not sure if the group buy price is still good.. but it's a good starting price 'range' Auto-Links' 5th Annual RFD Window Tint + Paint Protection Film Group Buy 2014 - RedFlagDeals.com Forums Drove it straight from Tesla to Autolink.

I thought about reselling my current S through Tesla, and they quoted me $80k for a $125k vehicle :( Looks like i'm skipping this upgrade. Also, since i posted in the winter wheel post, and this post has people buying new Ds, if there's anyone who can help pick up a set of winter tires, please...

Darn. Apparently Tesla can't offer the wheels to existing S owners at the $2700 price. Sooo.. Anyone want to help me out and order a set of winter tires? PM me please.

I just shot an email to my local Tesla shop, inquiring if past purchasers can get in on the $2700 (CAD) vs the $4000 (USD) $2700 - Model S Design Studio | Tesla Motors - change to 85, D, and CASH payment. $4000 - Shop Tesla Gear BASE - Installed I'll let you guys know how that goes...

nah, you dont have to wait. they'll let you pick up the HPWC as soon as they have it in stock.

So I just re-spec-ed out my car, and it's only a $1500 price difference from what i paid, and what the D cost.... I've driven my S around for half a year, got over 12k km on it. That $1500 might be justifiable. Question comes to mind 1) If you've already gotten the Ontario EV Rebate, are you...

wow. a 2 month delay? is that by choice? or by Tesla? you can always install it, and stare at it, as a reminder that your Tesla is coming :)

mknox, out of curiousity, was there a reason you didn't get the green plates (or custom plates), but opted for blue plates?

I highly recommend JML. They're also the recommended electrician from Tesla. I got quotes from Mr Electric, and a few others contractors. Mr Electric gave me a few options, running 220V, HPWC, etc. JML was by far the cheapest (roughly $500 cheaper than Mr Electric). They were very courteous...

When I goto a mall, I tend to park farther away because there's less chances of people dinging up my car by 'accident'. So I'm starting to compile a list of locations that have designated parking for EV/Hybrid parking. My list is short, so I'm hoping you guys can help me out. BTW, I'm in...

I've got jumpseats in my 85. I might swing by after work, to check out the superchargers (should be there around ~520-530) If you see a red 85, with tinted windows, ask to see the jump seats :) If not, i'm dropping my car off for service Friday morning, around 8am.

I was at the Lawrence Service Center, and ground has been broken! I couldn't get a firm date, but they said soon... (Sorry if the pic is huge)

I've looked around for better rates, but Scotia at 4.29 seems to be the best. I was talking to my BMO buddies, and even the employee rate is 4.25% I remember just walking into a Scotia to ask for a ~100k car loan, and they said it would be around ~5.5%. So I went with Scotia which funded my...

Where are you staying in Toronto, and when in July? Where in Cali are you coming from? perhaps offering up a trade, as i might be interested in going to Cali, just for the factory tour.

Cwave1 and my Tesla having a chat about the weather... (his is the cleaner one/closer one)

Here's my car... https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.771680226196005.1073741860.166891400008227&type=3

I got my car done by Brian from http://www.alphaautospa.com/ He's up in the Markham area, which was much more convenient for me.
