    Very Inaccurate opinion piece in the Toronto Star.

    Sometimes I hate my google feed for feeding me articles like this. Awful piece in the Star from a Kenneth Green at the Fraser Institute. I will not link. Below is what I wrote the author. Probably will on falls on deaf ears. TL;DR - your article was a hit piece. Hi Mr Green, Your article...

    Pearson Airport 10day cold soak

    Thought I would let others know what to expect if the left their car for an extended period outside in cold conditions. We left our model X at Pearson from the 23rd of December to January 2nd. I did a range charge before we left and parked it with 420km remaining. There was 243km when we got...

    Ouch! First huge repair bill.

    Bit of a warning to early model S owners and others. I have owned a model S since Dec 22, 2012 and I bought the extended care package. It has gone through 4 winters, 2 hard ones and 2 warmer ones. The car has 104,000km on the odometer. Last year I started hearing a rattling noise in the...

    Tesla cameo on kickstarter

    Hi All, I jumped into the world of kickstarted with a side project I have been working on and I managed to get my Tesla in a cameo. The best thing was the sound guy loved the Tesla because "Normal cars usually suck to shoot because they are so noisy". You can check out the cameo at the...

    Combining two of my favorite things...

    Love this look. Bought the new rack set last week and have already used it to transport 12foot lumber and now my canoe. There are many ways to tie down a canoe and I prefer this way which makes it look a little back biased. I could not sense any change in the driving dynamics although we were...

    Niagara on the Lake Charging

    Hi All, Anyone know if there are any chargers actually in Niagara-on-the-Lake? There are a few within 15km but it would be nice to use one in town. Plugshare does not show any. I will need to charge for a few hours - I hope the local hotels will oblige. The Laura Secord Homestead in only...

    Almost Brodered my Car!

    Well last night was really close. I have never really even been close to being out of range since I got the car in December but I tested that to the limit last night. Started of Friday when wife was late plugging the car in for a range charge for our weekend trip to Niagara falls. So left...

    Driving between Toronto and Windsor

    Strangely for my normal driving pattern I've found myself having to travel to London Ontario from Toronto twice in two weeks. I'm dying to take my Model S but the return trip is 400km - too close to a full range charge. Any good charging locations along the 401 corridor or in London (visiting...
