Henry, Thanks for the DM I thought I had notifications turn on. Yes I have the cable and instructions to perform the upgrade. If anyone need it please send me a DM and I will get it to you. Jason

You could always rent an adapter this is just one site that offers the service. CHAdeMo charging for Tesla - Adapter, Rent by the week

I keep a plug kit and small compressor in the car at all times. I can easily plug a flat and be on my way. I figure if the sidewall is damaged in the process something major has happened and roadside service will be needed anyway. Tesla sells a road side repair kit for $50 which is a more...

It would be nice to see a vegan interior in tan I would have chosen that over the leather. I hope future versions come in different colors.

And you never will. Tesla never announces what is updated in these minor releases and if you read the release notes they will be the same as the last major release. It is up to industrious owners to notice changes and speculate on what is fixed, adjusted or changed. I wish at least they would...

It can be random. I received 2.17.37 on the 23rd. From my experience with the S it can take a few days to a week to roll out software. Stay connected to WiFi and eventually it will come. I can confirm that the front seats move back to the previous position however the middle row seats do not...

I noticed after upgrading to release 2.17.37 the front and middle seat returned to the previous position. Now this could just be a one off fluke since my musical seat positions was random before the release. Further investigation is warranted and I will try to take a look later today to verify...

Yes but you are talking about a minuscule amount of energy. Energy from these systems while parked run on the 12 volt battery and not your main traction battery. Granted the 12 volt battery is recharged when needed but the bottom line is that you are not severely running down the battery pack...

I doubt you will get it at delivery. Our friendly Seattle Deliver Specialist last Friday mentioned that it would be mailed directly to our house when it is available.

In the Seattle area there is about a 75% rate of return when I am driving my Model S usually just a flash of the lights or a hand wave above the steering wheel. However driving the Model X I noticed S drivers don't wave. Perhaps they don't recognize it as a Model X or not sure but I was waving...

I got the premium upgrade so automatic doors. And man they are sweet! Really helpful when you have stuff in your hands getting into the car.

Great delivery experience this morning. Car in great shape no major build or quality issues and it is amazing to drive above and beyond the Model S!

Nope the My Tesla page has never updated since VIN assignment. From what others are saying Tesla has given up on updating the page until the car is actually delivered since I pick up tomorrow I would have to agree.

Yes we got the premium upgrade package!

Picking up 43XX on Friday the 8th.

In about 3 years when leases and buyback guarantees kick in.

Considering the feud between Apple and Tesla regarding employees and various comments by Elon I doubt there is much interest on Tesla's part to add CarPlay. The issue is certainly more political than technical.

Insurance is also based partly on the value of the car. Model S P90D is a little more expensive than the projected model 3 price so insurance quotes should reflect that difference.

The model S looking door handles are recessed and hinged meaning you press on the left hand side and the right side come out into a traditional handle you can see this around 8:48 from this video not sure how you open the door if you are left handed.

Try having your car for 3 months then AP hardware being included at no charge!

We took that trip last summer in the model S. Nice drive with plenty to see. If I recall the Springfield to Grants Pass includes a bit of elevation and I kept getting the warning about haveing less than 10% energy at your destination. If it is your first Supercharger trip stay plugged in a...

Yes they will! The website indicates that it is open to reservation holders who have not yet confirmed their order.

That make cleaning under it a bit of a pain but nice looking none the less.

Nice lose 2 cup holders to add 1.

We bought the Sportz SVU tent and it works great. I highly recommend it.

Castor do you need more beta users? I am local if that help any!

I had mine fully wrapped with Xpel Ultimate. Yes it was a stretch and I still get a little twitch thinking about that bill. However there has already been 4 instances in the last 3 months where it protect the car. The scratches healed up and can no longer been seen. Bugs and dirt easily wash...

No it has all the ions as the 85 just only 2/3 or active at any given time. You can upgrade to the full ions by paying a fee.

I have seen XPEL in person (on my blue Tesla). Looks great, performs great, however as many others will say whatever you choose the installer is what makes the difference.

Delivered 5/8/14 Ladybug Approved! No clean shiny picture here I've been driving solid since Thursday.

Delivered! It is the small things that are really nice. Like how they don't just use tape to hold up the temporary registration but have a special Tesla sticker. And then how they print the logo into the carpet:

Delivery moved up to 5/8 2 days away! all paperwork, insurance and money resolved!!

Well that is 2 cars completed production and waiting to get to Seattle how many do they need to fill the trailer and start driving!

Yes Alliant requires membership but if you speak to a loan officer you can make a $10 donation to the charity Foster Care to Success. This can be bundled into your Tesla loan so not really an additional step. Contact Alliant or fill out their web form and they can guide you through the...

Production Completed being prepared for pickup or delivery.

Just so you guys don't think I am crazy here is the copy of that email! Congratulations, your Model S has just been assigned its vehicle identification number (VIN). This number is unique to you and your custom built Model S. Tesla owners take great pride in their VINs, frequently...

Well I am sure I received an email since it was a form email and not from an individual like the DS I assumed everyone got one. Check you junk mail maybe it got caught there.

When the VIN is assigned you will receive an email with the subject "Your Model S Has Been Assigned a VIN". Then on your dashboard the RN will be replaced with the VIN. Unfortunately we have all learned that it is impossible not to check the dashboard 20 times a day but not much changes...

Went into production today. 38 days after confirming.

As a soon to be former Leaf owner I agree; and winter range is one of the reasons/justifications for upgrading to a Tesla. I assume once I have a pack that is 3.5x larger I would never have range anxiety again except on a longer road trips where I am pushing the range on purpose. But never...

Historically I have keep them in and plan to do so with the Model S. Even in the arid Seattle summer weather dirt and kid stuff always gets in the car and the all weather mats are easier to clean and maintain.

I don't think she was referring to Service in the sense of what the service centers do but rather general customer service of promising deliveries but having delays. Although she could have still been a plant!

We have similar configs. and VINs separated by 7. Glad I am not along in this frustrating wait!

Thanks I will contact them in a few weeks when mine arrives!

Where did you go in the Seattle area for Xpel and free waxes?

Have you ever seen the inside of a Minivan packed full of Kids? You need a industrial size shop vac to clean up some of their messes. The reason the Model S does not need this earth changing feature is that; at least in my case, kids and food will not pass the sacred entrance. If kids and...
