This relates to my 2015 85D, which has been connected to TeslaFi since December of 2018. For the last year, or almost a year, I've been seeing high vampire loss and TeslaFi has been reporting few and short sleep periods. I've been attempting to track this down and have been through the TeslaFi...

I'm running 20" summer wheels on my '15 85D. The tires will need to be swapped out this spring when the 19" winters come off. I was going to get another set of Pirelli P7's in 245/40R20 size, but the tire shop is telling me Pirelli no longer makes that size. Ugh. The choices don't look...

At the risk of being chastised for cross-posting, I wanted to be sure the PNW guys had a chance to see this event...! The Tesla Owners Club of BC worked last year with the City of Kamloops to add an EV category and 'Best in Class' trophy for EV's to the annual Hot Nite in the City car show...

The Tesla Owners Club of BC worked last year with the City of Kamloops to add an EV category and 'Best in Class' trophy for EV's to the annual Hot Nite in the City car show. Last year was a great success, so we're now on to the 2nd Annual staging of Electric Avenue! We've again been given an...

The Tesla Owners Club of BC has been working with the City of Kamloops to add an EV category and 'Best in Class' trophy for EV's to the annual Hot Nite in the City car show. We've been given an avenue to dedicate to EV's, which we are dubbing 'Electric Avenue', with banner, music, solar and...

Somebody approached me in a parking lot on the weekend to ask me about the car. During the conversation, the minimal number of moving parts was pointed out and the fact that 'reverse' is simply the motor turning backwards through the gear drive... and that there's no transmission to add...

I did a quick forum search but didn't find mention of the navigation site what3words | Addressing the world in my results. I'm not sure how well known it is yet, so I suppose there's a small chance I'm the first to propose that Tesla incorporate what3words in the navigation system... but I...

Came across this today...: http://www.digitalityworks.com/Viewers/ViewIssue.aspx?IssueID=145&PageNo=22 Great use for a former mine site!

I did some quick searching and was unable to find an equivalent thread in this forum... and I wonder why? There seems to be regular activity in Alberta and Ontario, but nothing in BC. Strange, given the number of Model S cars I see driving around Vancouver... you can't swing a dead cat without...

If I could drop this into a forum section that all of Europe would read, I would... but I'll try this one! Do you have 120 km/h speed limits anywhere over your way? And if so, does the Tesla camera read and interpret them correctly? I ask because it's not a common limit here, but there is one...

Came across this but don't see it linked here just yet. How Americans Charge Their Electric Vehicles It would be interesting to see how Tesla owners would compare to the Leaf and Volt drivers included in the study. I suspect the 'away from home' charging habits would be different, given that...

Call me an optimist, but my sense of things over the past few weeks has been to suggest that a momentum shift is starting to become noticeable. California's bill SB 350 - "Clean Energy and Reduction Act" Obama 'running wild' with Bear Grylls Saudi Arabia pushing into solar power Russia...

I did a search through the Canada section to see if there was an existing thread to jump into... a few close, but not quite what I'm thinking about, so here goes. Winter is coming. Who'da thunk-it? :biggrin: I'm pondering my options for winter tires and wheels. I've always bought a set of...

I'm pondering whether I should add a second charger or not. Living on the TCH Supercharger corridor as I do, I've learned that I'm relatively spoiled, especially compared to those of you in Alberta and points east - until you get into the SE Ontario/SW Quebec region. The future build out...

I live in the land of road bullets. Rock chips are a way of life and I expect to get them. However, my windshield is showing the most damage of any rock strike I've experienced in any of my previous cars. To be honest, I don't even know that I heard the hit when it happened... there was a day...

Apologies for a bit of a cross-posting here... this thread is in the Canada section, however it might also be of interest to those of you in the PNW. With the exchange rate the way it is these days, it's probably cheaper for you to vacation in Canada than live at home in the US... LOL - just...

While it started as a classic car and street rod show, Hot Nite in the City has become much more than that. The downtown core is shut down and made pedestrian-friendly, with six blocks and some connected avenues filled with cars of all sorts. There was a Tesla from Vancouver on display last...

I have to think that my software/firmware would have been the latest-greatest at delivery last week. But yesterday I got a notice that an update was ready... which I had it install last night. I haven't dug around to see if there is a place that indicates the version number, and haven't seen...

First world problems I know... The pretty plastic 'Tesla' plate trim ring obscures my registration information as shown in the photo. Anyone seen a trim ring for Tesla that doesn't do this? Plate looks pretty pathetic without something around the outside... Also realized they only used two...

Somewhere in my travels I came across something that suggested the Model S data connection is 3G and runs on the Rogers network in Canada, with automatic roaming to AT&T is the USA. Do we know if this is true? I was sent a message to my Rogers phone a few weeks back, announcing they had...

I found the regular seats were quite comfortable and likely quite acceptable. However, I tried sitting in the NextGen seats for comparison. Definitely more side bolster support, but I didn't feel much difference under my butt or behind my back. I've seen many cars with the exaggerated side...

Doing my research... been pondering a Tesla to replace my Mercedes E320 Diesel ever since I saw one at Hot Nite last summer and have found plenty of reasons why it would be great, including some spreadsheets that seem to be tweakable to make it a financially prudent decision too... :biggrin...
