    Porsche Taycan Vs Model S

    Were you able to make it to Pinetop without charging? My S will use 160miles of range driving from Tempe to the Payson supercharger (85 miles).

    Tesla service, what a joke!! Extremely frustrated.

    My takeaway is that carrying a spare and the necessary tire changing equipment is mandatory, no matter how much room it takes up.

    Hello and some questions...

    I don't have any seal problems in my Dec 2016 Model S, but these cars do not have adequate sound proofing. I'm sure I have the worse configuration with 21" Michelins and pre-raven. At highways speeds it is much nosier than my 2017 Sierra Denali. When making a call using Bluetooth, the other...

    WTB: 2016.5-2017 Model S P100D (consider P90D, or 2019+ raven performance)

    You sure you want to buy a car that the manufacturer is driving the value down on?

    Have anyone else tested the traffic light, stop sign detection with Autopilot yet?

    It is a non usable feature to appease those who paid for FSD

    Full Self-Driving Capability... Worth it?

    The only function I use is the auto lane change, for me the rest are completely useless. Hardly worth 10K. I agree with Double_J, not sure I would pay $1000

    Recommended Rims for P85D?

    My experience has been that the Arachnids have been trouble free and the rest of the Tesla 21 inch wheels will get bent if you drive near a pothole. I bent 3 of the stock 21's but only was aware of 1 incident affecting 1 wheel.

    Model S Cabin NVH (Noise, Vibration and Hashness)

    My Dec 2016 S is very noisy at highway speeds, mostly tire noise. 21" with foam Michelins. My 2017 GMC Sierra is significantly quieter.

    TIRE...FOAM OR NO FOAM

    Model S with 21s, freeway expansion joints are much louder without foam. The car needs no extra noise.

    FSD/HW3 Computer Upgrade - Disappointed and Impressed

    Only downside. I don't think Autopilot has gotten worse, but certainly not better. I would rather have faster screen response.

    FSD/HW3 Computer Upgrade - Disappointed and Impressed

    I went from AP2 to 3 on MCU1 In short time I turned off stoplight recognition Display is slightly less responsive now but not problematic, no other noticeable changes I would not recommend upgrading to HW3 with MCU1

    Is this fixable or will it never be the same?

    A great body shop can fix this and you will never be able to tell it happened.

    Are solar panels really worth it?

    My 2 cents: My 5k system generates approximately $1000/year. What do you think is a reasonable cost for this outcome?

    Flat tires - Fix yourself vs Roadside Assistance?

    With 21 inch wheels on a Model S, I gave up and carry a full size spare and a jack. Takes up lots of room, but my last flat couldn't be fixed, Glad I had the spare.

    What are the Charging Speeds with different connectors

    My experiences with a 2016 P100D: 110volt/12amp 4mi/hr Nema 14-30 14 mi/hr (208/30amp) Nema 14-50 24 mi/hr (50amp Gen 1 mobile connector) Supercharger, very dependent on current state of charge up to 500 mi/hr under 60% declining dramatically

    2020.28.5 gets +5mph with traffic light

    The +5mph is only if you have stop light not enabled. With stoplight enabled you get 0mph above speed limit.

    Went to pick up Used Model X.....lots of rust and pitting on brake calipers....

    I find Navigate on Autopilot to be almost useless. If this is a major priority you might want to reconsider. Autopilot is awesome, NoA is not.

    Buy Used Model X with 2 Accidents?

    I have the philosophy of only paying the amount that I could sell the vehicle for in a reasonable amount of time. Very few people are willing to buy a vehicle with any accidents.

    2020 Model S Long Range Plus

    I can comment on a few of your concerns: I find the interior fit and finish acceptable, but not anywhere near the level of your Cayenne. The road noise is substantially higher, significantly higher than my GMC Sierra Denali, Bluetooth phone calls at freeway speeds are almost not worth it, the...

    Should I buy a Tesla?

    "I have a 2016 S P100D, bought with 12k miles, now at 38k" Bought used after original owner lost 35% depreciation, after which I lost another 35% to the first price decrease

    Should I buy a Tesla?

    The last thing you need is the manufacturer to add to the "drop in value quite extensively", This is something I expect on an IPhone, but have never seen a car manufacturer drop a price by 30+% and last week added another 5+%. Lesson learned, I'll have to keep the car long enough to overcome...

Love the car Would never recommend because: 1) Service will not answer the phone 2) Tesla reduces sell price causing loss...

    I May Try to Delay Delivery of My MY. Advice?

    The only way QC is going to improve is if Tesla decides it is important. My perception is that it is still declining with no end in sight. That being said, the longer you delay the longer you will not enjoy these awesome cars.

    Thoughts on my charging habbits

    Most of the vehicles with free supercharging cost 1-1/2 times what they do today. Hardly "free" for those.

    New Audi e-tron Sportback EV Coming this Summer, still no compassion with a Model Y.

    I've loved Tesla for 7 years. But after years of abuse, I'm out

    Can you imagine patiently waiting for a founders edition Roadster after putting up a 250k deposit and having paint and panel issues? No one to complain to because they won't answer the phone. Ridiculous

    Used Lamborghini or New Roadster (which is cheaper long term)

    A Huracan is readily available new or used. The dealer answers the phone. I would choose the new Roadster but unfortunately it is only a fantasy, I would be surprised if it is ever built.
