    Extended Drive Report: Denver to Jackson Hole and back

    I made a long winter trip to Jackson Hole from my Denver home and I thought I would post my notes. I hope this helps anyone wanting to make the trip. Sorry if it is a bit too detailed, but I like reading detailed accounts and I am betting as an early adopter of EV's, you like it, too. We EV...

    Denver to Jackson Hole Trip

    im about to make this trip in my 90D Model X. Any insights or recommendations? It looks like I will arrive with only 12% battery left, which feels like I'm cutting it pretty close.

    Center Console

    Public Service Announcement: I did something really stupid...twice! The top of the center console is a handy place to put important papers like checks, etc, while driving, but I have now had my model X EAT those papers twice when coming to a stop on the way to my destination. Don't be stupid...

    New Denver Service Center

    I had my Model X serviced today by a Tesla Ranger. He told me that they have officially announced that they are moving the current Tesla Service Center on Evans to the old Schomp Service Center on Broadway in Littleton. This is really good news for everyone in Denver since it is a larger...

    How does the alarm function? Weird Story!

    You will see by my profile that I am a Model X owner, but I am posting in the S forum since my question is about something that happened to a friend who owns a Model S. He recently parked his car in a small regional airport parking lot. Upon his return landing, he enabled the AC and proceeded...

    72 amp charger upgrade

    I know there has been speculation on this forum about how the 48 to 72 amp charger upgrade works--is it a software switch or a hardware replacement. I am having the procedure done right now so I can tell you. It is in fact a hardware replacement and not an easy one. I took my X in on Saturday...

    Hail and Flooding experience?

    This afternoon in Denver, we had one wicked hail storm. As I looked out into the parking lot at my office, the first thing I could think about is that Prius-sized windshield on my Model X . The second thing I thought about was my car is made out of ALUMINUM! The third thing I thought about was...

    IOS App Update 2.7.5

    Just updated mine and it looks the same. Just says "Minor fixes and improvements" in the What's New section. I seem to remember seeing that there was going to be some updates coming in the app regarding Summon. Anyone know?

    Model X Long-Range Report: Denver to Dallas (About 900 miles) in 1 Day

    I recently made my first long-range trip in my new Model X. I've had the car for 3 weeks. I chronicled my thoughts about the trip below. 4:51am (Mountain time) Departure: Fully charged with range reading of 263 miles. I put the car in autopilot on e470 at 78mph. Projected to arrive at the...

    EV Trip PLanner and Model X

    Has anyone with a Model X used EV Trip Planner for making a long trip? How conservative did you find its data since the Model X isn't in the database yet? It seems that when I use a S85D with small tires, it still has most of my segments at less than 100 miles, making me think if I drive...

    Console for middle seats in 6 seat configuration

    Has anyone found an aftermarket console that would fit between the middle bucket seats? It seems like with no seat back pockets and no way to store items in the FW doors (thankfully!), we are missing a storage space for those passengers. Might really help on long trips.
