    It’s more “fuel” to drive my Volt than the Performance Model 3.

    I'm putting it out there, the first gen Chevy Volt is sexy. Not as much so as a Tesla, but still. The M3 is amazingly efficient thanks to the Silicon Carbide Inverter and tight integration. But the long range curb weight is a bit heavier than a Volt and the idle power consumption may be higher...

    Track Mode for Model S?

    I'd really like to see track mode for the Model s because enhanced track mode will have front rear torque bias settings so it could behave like a RWD, AWD or FWD car. Fun in the snow wouldn't cause motor overheating. I am hopeful, it's just software.

    Gen II rear lighted appliqué soon available: Gauging pre-producion interest

    When I get a Model S, someday, perhaps sometime this year, I am in. Probably a red Tesla but I'd take a chrome bar I think. Will it do everything the video shows; different modes, and reversing mode, turn signal mode? It comes with the lighted 'T' emblem? I'd also take the door mud light things...

    Loud AC sound from outside (video)

    I heard a quiet bassy noise whenever the AC was turned on in the Model S at the Tesla store that I was messing with. It makes sense that it was the microwave nook causing that. The vibration wasn't really heard outside the car. I liked the noise. Did anybody notice a lead acid accessory battery...

    Model S comes with 4 camera mounts / tripod mounts on the roof??

    For a roof rack? Those 4 doors would be open all the time then, rust issues for the metal in between the outer roof and inner roof? Also I don't think there are any gaskets for those doors. Those mounts look very weak, the base looks like it is either plastic or maybe magnesium alloy with the...

    Model S comes with 4 camera mounts / tripod mounts on the roof??

    So I took a looksie at the Model S charging up at the Washington Square Mall in Oregon yesterday. Nice looking car, lots of cargo space, lots of leg room, the battery doesn't intrude into the cabin. But then I started looking closely at the body and I noticed a little door on each corner of...
