Looking forward to this supercharger opening up. It was great to see everyone at the South Paris as well as the South Portland EV Show last week. Hope to see you all at the next meetup.

Somewhere with good parking and a bar!

Hey there, thanks for starting this. I live in Falmouth and would love to meet up. Have been looking to start something like this myself. I am available most weekday evenings and almost all weekends. Any ideas on where would be a good spot to meet?

Enclosed all the way. Don't even consider anything else.

Another vote for Intercity, you pay premium, but so worth it and not to mention, peace of mind.

Thank you! It's going to be good to be back! Despite my best efforts, unfortunately due to work commitments I am unable to take time off to drive cross country! Pretty bummed. See pic attached though. Trailer width 80", Model S width 77.3". I guess every inch matters even to cars eh?!

Hello there! I have owned my Model S since early 2016 and am moving back to Maine from San Diego. Look forward to connecting with folks!

Thanks for sharing. I am moving back to Maine from San Diego, so nice to see this.

Hello guys, I am moving from San Diego to Maine and while I would love to drive my Tesla the entire way, time does not allow it. So I would need to transport my Model S across the country. I have done this before with several transport companies (with less valuable cars of mine) where they haul...

I got the Next Gen Tan leather seats. They are extremely comfortable, and don't have a basis for comparison with textile because I haven't experienced the textile seats. A note on the wear - like with anything you own that is leather : shoes, bags etc you need to periodically maintain it and...

Beautiful! Drive in good health!

Very nice color!

Here you go!

Thanks for the info in the review. Glad you are enjoying the car!

Congratulations! That's great news! I wonder when they are going to start offering the X seats. I really like those white seats in the X

Has anyone noticed the slim longitudinal lights on the nose? Kind of a nice touch and I think further help accentuate the front. It's a nice shape and I think it is going to look very slick at night. Almost creates a signature for the car as it approaches.

Better get used to the pointing!

Congratulations! There wasn't an old console that came stock with the car, you would have had to purchase and install it. There would just be empty space between the two front seats. The new console is the same console just that it comes standard now with the car.

Agree with your logic, that was the same reason I chose the pearl white. Good luck today and congratulations.

Wow! That looks really slick! The contrast of the chrome against the blue is stellar. Blue was my second choice for color, the way I look at it you can't go wrong with any color you pick for this car. Congrats again.

That's great. I can see how the open space would be really cool. What color did you get? If it is anything other than Pearl white do you mind sharing some photos? I would love to see how the new wheels look against other colors. Thanks in advance.

Would definitely encourage you to see a couple colors in the flesh if you haven't already. I have the standard suspension not the SAS.

Here are some more pics of the pearl white in case it helps you make up your mind! I have never owned a white car in my life but then again I have never owned a car with such an amazing body style as the Model S. I went for white this time because I think white is the only color that truly shows...

Wow! Congratulations!!

Thanks fillerup. The color is pearl white. It definitely has a little more richness and warmth compared to the solid white. It also sparkles a little bit in the sun (not too much though).

Agreed, it is rather weird to not know exactly what you are going to get when you spend 6 figures on a car. The DS and other service folks were doing a great job with what information they have. Agree with the other comment above as well that communication needs to be improved from the...

Congratulations Hesse!

No it did not show up in the my tesla page or on my design etc - was a pleasant surprise when I sat in the car! I usually am not lucky with these things so it was a cool feeling! Hang in there it's worth the wait!

You are going to love it! I just installed the cup holders. See attached

Here you go! I happened to be in the car when I saw your question. I got the 70kWh battery.

Look on the bright side you are doing to get the new wheels and the new front center console!

You are welcome! See some more pics attached! Hope you get your Model S very soon!

Car took about 7 entire days in production and 2 days in transit and 1 day to prepare. It's so hard waiting it's the worst thing ever - but it all gets better when you take delivery!

I ordered on Feb 28 and was confirmed on Feb 29, I got an email about the wheels but not the console. Was pleasantly surprised to find it, happy about that!

Thank you! I got an umbrella, coffee mug and 2 leather key fob holders. Seems like this is the standard now. I actually lucked out and got the new wheels and the front console without ordering it. Must have sneaked through just at the right time!

To say I am over the moon is an understatement. Three cheers to American innovation and the American Dream!

Thanks AEdennis, can't complain about the weather here it's absolutely gorgeous everyday. Appreciate the insight into CHAdeMO and CCS, this makes a lot more sense to me now.

This might be a stupid question, but with more and more Teslas on the road including the impending rollout of the Model 3, wouldn't CHAdeMO want to build in the adapter to the end of their charging station? Perhaps a removable option so you can either choose to use it or not? Seems like such a...

Thanks for sharing a wealth of information on the topic AEdennis. Your blog is very informative and sounds like you had a great road trip. I just moved from Maine to CA so looking at some of your New England photos just took me back in time!

Thank you. I will probably hold off for a little while and reevaluate later.

I am picking up my Model S, 70D tomorrow in San Diego (super excited) and was wondering if it is worth purchasing the CHAdeMO adapter at this time? From what I understand the adapters provided with the car can use about 95% of what is out there for public charging stations. I like the fact that...

Chris - hope it all works out well today! Post pics when you have it! I pick mine up tomorrow! Can't think about anything else right now!

One of my favorite design attributes of the Model S is it's current nose cone. I hope they do not modify to match the Model X nose cone.

High praise! Thanks for sharing.

Very cool! Congratulations! The pics look great and sounds like it was a great first day!

Thanks Shotgun! And congratulations to you! Couldn't think of a better way to start the week!

Congratulations you guys. I'm sure the feeling is amazing! My car has been 'in production' for 6 days now! The wait is killing me! Ugh!

Hello lucky lottery winners! I live in San Diego and would love to accompany any of you to the event. I guarantee we will have fun and I will pick up the tab for dinner/drinks etc of any place of your choosing! Congrats again and hope to be able to attend! Bharat
