    Tesla is dumping Mobileye???

    I think there are 3 main reasons for the breakup: 1. MobileEye wants to keep the TDP low while increasing processing power, to cater to ICE customers also. But Tesla has less concern on TDP and want to go full autonomous fast. This means their goals are not perfectly aligned. 2. MobileEye has a...

    My Tesla Delivery Story

    Still very refreshing to see stories like this. Wish I could get a P100DL in the future!

    2013 vs 2016: thinking of upgrading

    Autopilot would be the biggest improvement, I think. Dual Motors bring faster acceleration and "fuel" economy. 90D is faster than a P85!

    Low Mileage Drivers - Seeking Input

    I have the same commute as yours and I really enjoy my Tesla 70D every day (unless my wife manages to wring it out of my hands... :)). It is such a joy to drive Tesla, with all the technology whiz bans it carries. And that is the main reason for me. However, there are two more cases for it: 1...

    V7.0 naming your Tesla 42

    Really cool easter egg. Unfortunately I already named mine TT.

    Autopilot Auto Park feature to solve charging problem

    I agree. This would be the next piece to complete the puzzle.

    Autopilot Auto Park feature to solve charging problem

    It just occurred to me that the Auto Park feature can be used to automatically move the car to another spot after charging is completed. This will solve the problem of cars that completed charging has to wait for the owner to come back to vacate the charging stall. Since the parking lots are...

    Tesla backed my inventory P85D into a pole 5 minutes before delivery.. :(

    That's pretty unlucky for you. Hope you will cruise smoothly with your 70D in the years to come.

    Surpercharging difficulty for my new 70D

    We got the car yesterday and I tried charging at full 40A at home last night. It went fine with 28mi/hour added. Will check supercharging later. Tesla did check supercharging before handing it back to us.

    Best place to work? In a Model S!

    Right. Will keep that in mind. I have always wanting to work "at home" to avoid the commute. However, home is really not that exciting for me because of the isolation, and cafes are too loud. So Model S is really great. And I can always walk into a cafe if I want.

    Surpercharging difficulty for my new 70D

    Well, the technician said that the master charger controls the amperage so they maybe related. We will see. He did tell me to manually increase to 40A next time at home to override the memory. They also replaced the 12V battery. So it is still problematic, I assume.

    Best place to work? In a Model S!

    I found that Model S is actually THE best place to work: You can work from anywhere you like: on the beach, by the street, in a park. Need to take phone calls? No problem. Bluetooth hands free and quieter than a cafe. Little road noises and no engine sound. environment friendly and guilt free...

    Surpercharging difficulty for my new 70D

    So I took it to SC upon their request. They told me the main charge unit is faulty and are replacing it. I got a loaner 85D yesterday and, when I plugged it in to my NEMA 14-50 last night, noticed that it takes full 40A out of it, while my 70D could only draw 30A at best. Maybe these two things...

    Surpercharging difficulty for my new 70D

    OK. I will try that, even though I did see the green ring flashing for several seconds before it stops and show blue(?). The one time it did work in San Juan, the flashing green ring turns into solid green pretty quick and I heard a clicking from the car.

    Surpercharging difficulty for my new 70D

    I got my 70D on 6/24 and have been enjoying it so far. However, one particular problem is having me concerned: It seems that it has "developed" a hatred for supercharging. :mad: After getting my car, I have taken it from LA down to San Diego and back, and also to Carbazon over the last weekend...

    Interesting (in a good way!) delivery schedule

    That's great. Just 1 day in production. That's amazing speed since mine took the normal 3 business days. Guess they want to deliver to you by end of the quarter so you will probably get your baby this week!
