Yeah, but it it art?

But on further reflection - I might get one to recharge my S... At least it would have been cooler if it looked like this

I kept hoping this was just a teaser. Elon needed a few hits off that joint to loosen up a bit - so awkward. Huge fail on the windows... did he think of testing that first?

It wouldn’t be doggie mode without Elvis. Dog is my copilot!

my wife’s 2014 model S died yesterday. She parked it in the garage and plugged in - next morning the car got stuck on “powering up” . Numerous reboots to no avail. 24 hours later still “powering up.” Tesla mobile service tried everything - still unable to move the car. Looks like the cars...

Vinyl Warp was why I converted to compact Disks (CDs)

I would have to agree. I have a 2014 S and a 2017 S, both great cars. However, I have sold all my shares in the company because Elon is a terrible business manager. He has managed to alienate all his employees, even those who were devoted to the Tesla mission. Impossible performance metrics...

Quite aside from the airbag question and with all due respect, your medical issue makes it apparent that you should not be driving this or any vehicle. The cause of the incident was not the Tesla - Best regards.

I love it when folks buy the economy version, then complain about minor issues.

Are there many Tesla's at the Cars and Coffee? Perhaps we need to get the Tesla club to show up and lead the Luddites out of the ICE age (Infernal Combustion Engine)

Personally, I'm waiting for part two of rail , when they declare eminent domaine and start confiscating property to run a line from Ala to UH. That will be ugly! That said, I've lived in towns with populations of 10-15 million - Bangkok, Hong Kong, Beijing - some form of mass transit is...

I believe Tesla will be at the Auto Show Cheers

Now may be the time to trade in for the P85D!

I will try to be there also. I have yet to meet anyone from the forum. cheers Paul

I think they've already delivered the first 85D to some lucky customer!

We paid a visit to Shea's yesterday. "Sasha Fierce" is now wearing a G Techniq coat. Looks great! If the photo comes thru, there appears to be a swirl on the hood - that's actually a reflection from the clouds overhead.:smile:

Spoke with Shea's on 11 Oct2014. Opti coat is no more. No longer lifetime guarentee - has tripled in price. Other options?

Lol! What's the point of being an Early Adopter if you can't enjoy the bugs? If I wanted all the bugs worked out I'd drive a model T.

We just picked up our S85 on Monday. Finally. It's still on version 5.14, but then I just figured out how to connect it to my house wifi so maybe it will update soon. On the bright side, the iPhone iOS 8.0 Tesla app does let you start and drive the car without a key fob. Wish there was a...

I wonder if we could get the local Solar City Office to come up with a portable solar collector for those car shows - "I'm driving on Sunshine"

What is the general opinion on the mounting for the front license plate? I notice from the photos there seem to be three options : a) drill five holes in the nose cone b) zip tie thru front grill or c) skirt the law and run sans front plate?

I was looking at the Promotional Photo - all the car owners with their hoods up - I'm planning on bringing a nice Picnic basket to put in my Frunk to show the ICE agers a better use for all that space used by a greasy engine! Aloha

Color me there

Hey all! The Patron Saint of EVs Nicola Tesla is smiling on us. We pick up our S on the 15th just in time for Drive EV week. We will definitely plan on meeting everyone at Nico's

I'm amazed at how many people still have never heard of Tesla. Thinking that Tesla doesn't do much direct marketing, maybe us Tesla Fans (from the word fanatic) should start our own guerrilla marketing campaign. Personally, I'm for putting a flyer on Nissan Leafs saying "Electric Vehicles...

The Service Center continues to improve. They are working on ways to smooth the delivery/registration process. Received this today from Caroline " Also attached is the Hawaii Registration Process. As I mentioned on the phone, we can do valet for the temporary and final safety inspections...

Thanks for the ref to Min Plastics. I stopped by on 03 Sept to pick up the placeholder with the sticker. The current mid they have has the sticker oriented horizontally. One of the guys at the desk noted that placing the sticker sideways was not an option as some places wouldn't even install...

I'd give Tesla some credit for the retooling of the line had I not ordered the car during April - 6 months ago!!

Well this sucks! Tesla Palo Alto just informed me they have pushed back the delivery of my S from Aug 26 to sometime mid September! That will teach me to pay them money before the thing lands on the docks!

I noticed that the Sales Manager position was open on the Tesla Careers site - as well as a Product Specialist position

Does anyone know what

Mahalo for the welcome. My name is Paul Simonsen. I grew up all over Oahu, graduated from MidPac but left to do a career in the Federal Government, retired in 2011. My wife Lani and I have a place in Ewa by Gentry. We have two children so will be spending a lot of time commuting into town for...

The waiting is excruciating. We live in Ewa, but my daughter is attending Sacred Hearts This year - so we will be enjoying the daily traffic grind in style.

Hah! I used to live in Hawaii Kai during the 70s. My family moved to Maunawili on Kailua side for awhile but we couldn't handle the clouds. So moved to Makaha. Left Hawaii for 20 years (career thing) and bought a place in Ewa - wow, where the sugar cane went?

That ramp up to TJ Max gives me the willies!

Don't waste money on the submarine package. Elon is working on a Hovercraft accessory for 2015...

My spouse saw one for sale at the Audi Hawaii dealer on Nimitz Hwy during June 2014, mainland car. Not sure if it's still there, but I hope they have kept it plugged in so it does not brick on them! Good luck

Nice summary, this will be our bible next month. mahalo

Mahalo Mahalo Akikiki we are scheduled to get our S in August 2014. Just got the VIN number!:biggrin: Aloha Paul

Don't let Waipahu scare you! You can always ride the rail back to Ala Moana Center while you wait! Quite a few Teslas out in Ewa and Kapolei these days - lots of brand new million dollar homes also. Hawaii Kai is so 1970's!
