    Supercharger - Santo, TX

    Looks promising for my Nov 3-5 passages going to and from a rural camp nearby Graford from DFW. Thanks for the reports!

    Supercharger - Early, TX

    Whoops! Santo is IDEAL! Not sure why I searched Early earlier.

    Also, that’s far out of my path.

    Supercharger - Early, TX

    The gap without superchargers for 100 miles west of DFW on I-20 is appalling. I live in Dallas and have a camp event near Graford (about half way) and have to rely on 12A charging there, or big charge in Ft Worth SC in case something is unavailable.

    Sold 2018 Model S P100d 93k miles Silver/White (Drastic reduction!)

    I sold my prior car last year and was comfortable having it picked up for cross country shipping. Smooth and easy. I’d probably be able to include shipping costs to the lower 48 at the asking price.

    RUSH - THIS WILL TRADE IN TO TESLA WHEN THE NEW MODEL S DELIVERS THIS MONTH I love this car, especially the silver color, but Elon's offer to transfer FSD puts this on the market if I can get a suitable price.

    Should I accept this new Model X Plaid?

    Cool. Don't recall the bezel (it's out now) but the USS are present. We picked up in Plano.
  16. Plood

    Should I accept this new Model X Plaid?

    They have an interesting strategy. Schedule for 4:30 delivery, tell you they're leaving at 5 so ask questions fast. And assure the buyer that it doesn't matter whether you find any defects there or later.

    Should I accept this new Model X Plaid?

    Just took delivery Monday December 26, after a 2-3 month wait, paying the current full price. Concerns: Paint defects. Some chips around door edged, and a bad defect by the passenger door mirror (very visible. It's a 1/4" raised spot that might as well be a cornflake that got painted over...

    Tesla and MyQ

    As a MyQ owner for several years (good product), I remind that for no charge we have the app on our phones to see status, open and close garages from anywhere (and video live view inside garage). We're happy using homelink for both out Tesla cars. No monthly cost.

    Does house main have to be shutoff for TWC install?

    There's lot of hot metal in the open panel, but adding a breaker to a hot panel is about like plugging in a lamp into a hot receptacle. It's designed to do that

    Is long charging cable a pain?

    My wife's new Tesla arrives soon, and it's alone in our double garage. I'm, very happy with the convenience of the short (fat) cable on the charger in my single garage, even though it required an install ($700) to route conduit to the other side of the garage. My wife thinks she wants the...

    Will a wheel change (cheaper) delay delivery of an X Plaid?

    Delivery is Dec5-Jan9. Wife is weighing dropping the upgraded wheels and going custom aftermarket. No VIN yet. Odds or a major delay? No effect?

    Mirrors unfold "randomly" in my garage

    I’ll try the latest trick but they behave differently ever time in the same circumstances. I’d like them out for backing out and in for heading in.

    Wiki Model X Order/Delivery Tracking - Google Sheet

    My wife has an X Plaid on order for delivery December-January, and I told her that it it pushes into the new year, it's a silver lining to have a 2023 for no real reason except slight resale value.

    That looks great. Though a very different look.

    Anyone interested in the Tesla Service Manual in PDF?

    Yes. Did the Free EPC disappear?

    Anybody miss Tesla's Silver paint option?

    My silver (on white) P100D is my favorite color. But it looks right with the chrome trim all around, whereas it might not look that great with black trim that is now the norm.

    Wiki Model X Order/Delivery Tracking - Google Sheet

    Tesla don't have "model years." They continuously update as features are changed, and there is no transition to a new model year. They simply have production and delivery dates. Used buyers should know that.

    Why I was wrong to hate FSD at first, and what I learned (Driver Error)

    I just got FSD beta this week. And I hated it from the start. It seemed to fail every time it needed to take a turn. started turning, then rolled straight into the intersection. And kept driving. It happened more and more, as I lost trust. Then I figured it out. I was resisting the turning...

    Ok, so she logs in with the account she set up to accept my additional driver imitation and then buys. Thanks.

    2 Tesla’s, 2 SEPARATE accounts

    Do I have this right?: Wife orders her new car on a new account (even though she has an account to be the second driver of my car). Or does it matter who orders? Wife then invites me to be a second driver of her car? My app will show both cars?

    Waiting Room: Model X Plaid Only

    On the verge of a MX Plaid order. Is there anything anticipated to justify delaying the order for a time? (Brembo Sensify brakes would do it if not more than a year away), as would advanced steering like we expect to see on the CT. Anything I can do to talk my wife out of the 22” wheels she...

    Unexpected Jack Mode Problem (”crunch!”)

    Parked at a head in spot (slight uphill) with enough clearance my wife commented how close it was. When we returned I offered to show my wife how to see the air suspension height for clearance. I couldn’t adjust because it was in Jack Mode. I went to service and couldn’t turn off Jack Mode...

    Used Model S Value

    I bought an 85k mile used 2018 from a friend with the same friendly offer. In Feb the wholesale offer was very low. Great news for me. A couple months before it was about 25% higher. My advice is that the market can fluctuate a lot and you might get a great deal or one to pass on if Carmax is...

    Model S Refresh: Relatively fatiguing when actually driving long distances?

    Is that because you can lower the yoke to a level that would have the upper part of a wheel blocking the driver display?
  41. Plood

    Anyone disabled the PWS on refreshed S?

    I'll bet you can't find one state let alone 50 that has a law prohibiting owners specifically from disabling PWS.
  42. Plood

    Anyone disabled the PWS on refreshed S?

    As the laws differ in different countries and states, this is a presumptive legal absurdity. Much more likely is that in some nanny jurisdiction there is a regulation the manufacturer must comply with to provide this feature. And even there it’s unlikely to prohibit disabling.

    Regenerative Braking, How Much Does it Actually Do?

    You can coast without regen by not lifting your foot as far. Just lift enough to get the speed where it would have been when coasting. You can see in your display when it is and isn’t regenerating. You can also feel it in the deceleration that clearly accompanies regen. Don’t lift your foot...

    Regenerative Braking, How Much Does it Actually Do?

    Regen efficiency answers the question: how much do you get back when you have to stop for a red light? If you travel at a constant speed you'll get no regen benefit even from a perfect system. It’s the instances when you must slow or stop before getting back to speed that it contributes. I had...

    My tesla is stuck (completely shut down by malfunction) in my building’s indoor parking …any suggestions on towing it out?

    I was going to suggest asking building management to report an illegally parked car. Those tow guys can get anything.

    How dark (% transmission of visible light) is the normal roof? I’d guess closer to 2% than to 20%.
