Received my invitation to order about a month ago. I don't want to take the car but my son wants it and I know that I can transfer the reservation to him after talking to the main customer support. But how much time will they leave the invite open before it closes? Has anyone experienced this...

Here is a theory. All of the automakers have been enjoying quite the run cyclically over the past 5 years or so. GM and Ford especially. Now Ford is struggling (new CEO) and GM sales are trending downward. This tells me that in the short term they have other problems to deal with and so...

I drive fast. Living where I do we have a lot of radar and some laser. Radar by local police and sheriff departments with laser used by highway patrol. Haven't had a ticket since I got the MS and I know I'm far more aggressive. Do you suppose the nose cone, slope of the windshield or...

I ran about a half dozen times yesterday. 90+ degrees with about 230 rated miles showing. I'll scan and post the tickets if there is any interest. 2016 85D.

Any ideal how to decipher these numbers?

I haven't read about this being considered a option but I think it might be very smart for TMC to use subscription services for certain features. Such as... Supercharging Speed upgrades Adaptive Cruise Control Autonomous Steering Mapping Cellular connectivity The list goes on.... Of course...

Everyone wants a Tesla app that can tell us SC availability. The peril with doing that is the data probably can't express if there are cars already waiting or how long a driver intends to keep his charger in the stall whether charging or finishing his lunch. I can't think of any way that can...

I had my wall connector installed with on a 240v 80/100 and set the dip switches for 40 amp output. Originally when it was put in it was pumping out the 40 amps and I was getting about 30 mph. But now it is only putting out 30 amps and I'm getting about 22 mph. Has this happened to anyone...

Do not have a console and from what I have seen with Telsa's and other aftermarkets they wouldn't work anyway. I am perplexed. I could have a seat cover made with a CC pocket which doesn't make sense to me owning premium leather and sitting on cloth. The obvious is I could keep it concealed...

If there is one thing that irritates the hell out of me it's that the usb's and power socket aren't always on. Why the heck would they turn off with the car and stop charging a phone. It sure isn't going to kill a battery putting out only 1-2 amps. Tried doing a search but can't find any...

I live in Florida. My garage is air conditioned but because of the size and lack of insulation I keep it about 85 in the summer. Just to keep the humidity down. Got to thinking why not have the climate control in the MS always on while plugged in say to 78 degrees. Keep the humidity even...

Tried doing a search on this and any combination of words brings up a whole bunch of unrelated stuff. Apologize if has been answered before. I expect a MS 85D the week after Christmas and depending upon the day we will be hopping into the car from the service center in Tampa to South Beach...

Wow....I'm sure Tesla and others are looking at this. Here in Florida insurances companies are required to repair or replace a windshield that has a chip or a crack. But nothing is free. Lower insurance rates for Gorilla equipped cars might offset the additional cost and would be worth it...

When are car manufacturers going to get smart and integrate a induction charger into the console? Very inexpensive convenience that is pretty pervasive and if not in the phone easily added. Oh...I know. When Apple puts wireless charging in the iPhone. Cars are so biased to iPhone it is...

This is so odd. I have spoke to no less than 5 different people in various departments and nobody has been able to tell me what the cost difference is between on and off peak per kWh. They can't even tell me how much the meter costs to install! They are sending me a brochure but I doubt it...

Is there one? I'm rather surprised if there isn't since it would be the perfect tool to prepare a new owner for delivery without sitting in the car or worse playing with it while driving.

This is a curiosity question as much as anything. I did a search on this and not much came up beyond very early threads about Roadsters. I understand that the problem with using any electrical source it has to be clean for the MS to accept charging. With today's inverter generators that...

I have the electrician installing the NEMA 14-50 with 40 amp service/50 amp breaker in the coming weeks. My thinking is...just in case at some point in the future I want to add the dual charger and wall connector I would have him use the larger wire and conduit to satisfy 80 amp service/100...
