    3rd party Lease

    Has anyone leased from someone else besides Tesla? Trading in my MS for a MX and wanted to look into a lease this time for comparison. I've scoured Google and the Search but have not found anything..

    New Headlight Design?

    Does this MX's headlights look different than normal? It seems to have an upper 'brow' or is it just the angle?. The page is new and hidden... Charge At Home | Tesla

    Ultra White is now ventilated with Premium Package

    From the Website.. This wasn't there last week when I was checking it out. Ventilated front seats that circulate cool, dry air through perforations in the seating surface when paired with Black, Tan, or White Tesla Premium Seats

    Tesla won't send me my own logs

    AP handled that impact very well.. Some people would of jerked the wheel, over compensated and ran into the ditch.

    US$15.000 NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 supercomputer in every Tesla?

    If I am not mistaken.... These are different products. Drive PX2 is not what is going in the new cars, its just a standard GPU.

    Letter to Mr. Musk from a 1-day old outdated Model S owner

    @outie I cant disagree with this but if someone wanted annual changes, they should of bought a Bolt. I went in knowing full well something would change the day after forking over the check and it did for me, the 85 pack was discontinued a week later. On top of that, the refreshed front end came...

    US$15.000 NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 supercomputer in every Tesla?

    We also don't know which version of the Titan it is, the current generation or previous. Edit: I doubt this, but Nvidia and Tesla could of partnered up on a custom version of the Titan. Never heard of the Titan referred to as a 'Super Computer" like Musk has called it.

    Letter to Mr. Musk from a 1-day old outdated Model S owner

    To me, it is no different than GM coming out with the 2015.5MY 6 months after the introduction of the 2015 models with a new 8 speed transmissions. Were those people mad? You betcha! Did GM do anything, absolutely not. Just apart of moving forward.. sucks but its worth it in the end. If they...

    Second Row middle seat

    Is there anyway of removing the middle seat in the second row? With AP2.0 out now, I was thinking of trading in the S but I only want something like a 5 seat config with the middle one removed..

    P75D Model S???

    You do realize they sell fake badges on Amazon right? That's clearly what this person did..... As for the M3 mule, I was told by an insider that Tesla used a modified MS chassis that was shortened 8 inches to replicate what the M3 would be like. To an untrained eye, it could (it did) go unnoticed.

    My Hydroplaning Experience in MS 85D

    Almost same situation (15' 85D) but I was in AP at the time of hydroplanning. (Was going straight, no lane changes). AP handled it so perfect (never disengaged), my passengers all said WTF just happened, as they knew something happened but weren't sure. You could literally feel each wheel...

    Destination charging in Dallas?

    I stay at the NYLO in Las Colinas, they have 2 HPWC and 1 J1772. They are prone to ICEing around 6pm as the parking gets packed.... I have stayed there too many times to count. You do have to go inside when you check in and ask them to activate the chargers for you. I stayed at the NYLO...

    Houston, TX

    Moorelin and I were probably around 14 and 15th in line. Couldn't ask for a more efficient process, was out the door by 10:15 am. Personally reserved 2 myself. Can't wait for the reveal!

    Any owners with big dogs?

    My 100lb German Shepherd and 30lb mix dog fit together in the back just fine. For longer trips, I'll lay the back seats down just so they have more room and airflow.

    Houston, TX

    When I asked the SC if they happen to know plans about increasing the Super Charger infrastructure in Houston are they said I was told that there were plans for Super Chargers in Baytown off I10 and another closer towards Galveston (Clear Lake would make sense), no date was said though.

    Repairing a Flooded Tesla Model S : HOW-TO

    I am really curious to know what is the maximum level these cars can go thru water in. Or should I say where up to on the car can it go up to since some people have different wheels and suspensions.

    WWYD: De-Chroming

    Only thing on the wrap is that the professional told me white is one of the hardest colors to match (I have the solid white), that's why I wanted to go to paint route, but I'm sure it would cost a lot more than the wrap. Forgot about the chrome door sill part! And I also wanted to do something...

    WWYD: De-Chroming

    Hi all, So I am thinking of a few options on how to get rid of all the chrome on my MS and wanted to see what opinions were on the subject. I have thought of Plasti dipping, wrapping or painting the following items: Door Handles Door trim around windows Rear & front T Model S and 85D emblems...

    high pitched whine from front motor 85 d

    I have the same issues @3500 miles, I have already had them take a look and I was able to recreate the noise with the lead technician riding with me. He pulled up a notice from Tesla stating they know about it and are working on it. Don't quote me but the sound occurs 20-25khz frequency..

    What are peoples plan with salvaged cars? To tinker and learn, projects or just get them another car. I would love to see someone take the motors and battery and put them in like a F150, basically all the guts, just a new shell.

    7.1 auto-steer drives like it's drunk?

    Yesterday, AP was literally jerking sharply into other lanes but would recover, I was watching the screen and the blue lines were straight each time. Also, while I was driving down a HIGHWAY about 20 minutes in AP said it was restricted and slowed me down from a 75 to 60 and I had to immediately...

    Change in name for grey wheels: now called Onyx Black wheels

    I was at my SC yesterday and they had 5 P90DL's prepping/detailing. The wheels are darker than my new MS 21" gray wheels, would I call them black, yes. If you don't want black, I would be happy to do a swap :) Edit, so taking a look at the photos I took, the one with Onyx wheels is blocked -_-.. ~

    What the Heck is up with Autopilot?

    AP keeps wanting to side swipe cars for me..... I feel it pulling towards cars in other lanes and it's way to close for comfort.

    New Aftermarket Spoiler Install Advice?

    I just did this and used the pre-placed 3M adhesive. The corners stick up but all together it feels very firm. Took a road trip and went 80-90 for 600 miles and didn't fly off! Lol. I'm thinking of what to do about the corners, leave it or take it off and reapply better 3M.. The hardest thing...

    high pitched whine from front motor 85 d

    New 85D also and I have a whine/whistle noise under light acceleration around the 20-40 mark also. Had the SC take a look and they must not of heard it as they stated they only heard normal electric motor noises, which is not what I'm hearing. No range mode on

    Autopilot is already improving.

    Hi all Today while I was cruising on auto pilot I noticed two very interesting things. When I first had a 24 hour loaner P85D, the auto pilot refused to function in intersections, resulting in the beep-beep-beep grab wheel immediately. Well today, I went thru 3-4 intersections and the car...

    Only saw one scratch, they took care of it right then though. I did notice my hood is not properly aligned, need to see if the can correct that. Btw, what do you think of that acceleration! Stand still is so-so, but punching it while moving is amazing. I'm on 2.9.4
