When people start screaming online in all caps, you know it's time to leave cuz the intellectual floor just dropped out on you and you are now at a very strange place where everything is fake and only Alex Jones and Richard Spencer are the real deal. I too shall excuse myself from this strange...

hmm.. this thread is getting awfully long consider one person posted like a third of the posts in the thread. I believe Anderson Cooper has a beautiful quote that describes this situation perfectly: " If [Trump] took a dump on his desk, you would defend it." :rolleyes:

Need a safe space? oh nvm you can't be that sensitive. :rolleyes:

Actually a half decent joke if no one tries to evaluate the premise.

You certainly like strawman. I'll give you that much. It might be true in other regards but that does not change the fact that climate change is real or that Trump is too confused to understand that it's real. And it also doesn't change the real reason he and the GOP are pulling out of the...

Except the oh like ten times he said climate change is fake and created by China. It’s ‘an expensive hoax’ — and other things Trump has said about climate change Oh and also the various roll backs of the Obama era clean energy and environmental protection initiative. Sure, he is definitely for...

Ha, a great attempt at strawman. Classic. What you are implying is that if you aren't a CPA, you shouldn't do any accounting. That'd be a very interesting world and my job would be much easier. You got a very interesting take on defining race. Last time I checked, uneducated white is not a...

Because EM has made it clear that Tesla is not just about cars. It's about living off renewable energy as a life style. And how is it political when he is just pointing out that the orange peel's rejection of climate change is wrong and is just refusing to partake in his charade any longer? Am I...

Constant on power source. Doesn't have any issue when parked. I could park it and leave it for a week at a time (which I do because sometimes I walk to work for the entire week) and it would still be fine. It only happens when charging is triggered. Not parking mode. It wouldn't say "parking...

So, I have DR650S-2CH installed on my 90D, but I have been experiencing a weird issue with it. The dash cam would stop working once the car starts charging. It would stay on (all LED lights are still on), but it would stop recording. It won't resume normal operation until I power cycle it. I...

hmm dare I say it's indeed not a bug but a feature? Whether or not people like the new feature or if the feature gets removed in the next update is another matter. ;)

Dang. Thanks for that info. I have been walking to work for the past month and have lost touch with the local/state news without car radio.

I'm not a rider but what you are saying shows your lack of understanding of lane splitting. First of all, there is no such law in California AFAIK yet. It's still in the work. Corrected. There is actually a law now. Second of all, in stop and go traffic in SoCal and NorCal, the traffic flow...

What makes you think that AP2.0 will be able to handle that kind of problem? First of all, the current AP can "see" above eye level; however, it ignores what it sees to reduce false positive. Do you want the car to do an emergency break at every overhead road sign? I don't think so. The same...

AFAIK, there is no clear guidance on lane splitting yet. It up to both the car and the motorcycle to make sure that no accident happens. I don't know if you have seen those running digital signs during events that remind the drivers that the road is shared by not only cars. You can say that...

The only sensor setting I changed is the vertical G. I dialed it down to zero. If you don't, every pothole and speed bump you drive over will register an impact. Everything else is left default. So far, it's working pretty well. A few false alarm during parking mode when people run by, but...

I tried the mirror thing and it just doesn't work in LA freeway traffic because of motorcycle lane splitting. You don't hear them coming until they have passed you and they usually drive by very close to the cars at high speeds too. I want to see them coming and leave them enough space, and the...

You can try the touch up paint. You are probably going to use up the entire bottle, but they are pretty inexpensive. However, I don't think you'll like the result of the touch up paint. This is a reason why a lot of folks on the board get protective film for the front.. Replacing the film is...

Nope, they aren't solved yet. Mine was probably the first batch of the refreshed front, so front bumper cover doesn't align with the fender that well. There is one portion that probably sticks out like 0.2in. It's barely noticeable from afar, but easily identified when within a feet or two. My...

6 years down the road the resale value of both cars will be low regardless AP 1.0 or 2.0 because there will be a 3.0 or maybe 4.0 by that time. Saying that 6 years down the road that 2.0 will be able to drive itself is HIGHLY optimistic. I don't think even the most hyped Tesla fanboy will claim...

I would say that despite what a lot of people say about 2.0, it's more of a incremental change. The current AP is sufficient for most freeway driving. The new triple cam and the added censor will indeed make the system better but I don't think it will create such a huge difference. I believe 2.0...

Charging at high amp and voltage is not black magic. Tesla charging systems still have to follow the rules of physics which means some energy will be converted to heat when charging. Charging at 70+Amp likely generate more than twice the heat compared to charging at 40A. The additional heat will...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there is a premium difference between P85 or 60 as it was reported by many people that insurance companies don't even ask specific configuration when giving a quote.

Amount of down payment and monthly payment correlates almost linearly influenced by effective interest rate; which means, if you can generate more return on the cash than the effective interest rate they are charging, you will be better off paying less down. I would go for CPO if the recent...

The question between 60 and Model 3 is not that different from purchasing C-Class/E-Class or 3 Series/5 Series etc. It all depends on your need. Do you need a larger car with that much more trunk space and rear seat comfort? Do you need that much more performance? Do you need that much more...

Definitely locked. The mirror folded in and the handle wouldn't come out. I usually leave the keys inside the car when I'm back at the other house, so I know how it behaves when keys are in the car and properly detected. The car was only delivered like a month ago... so it shouldn't be a...

I can't be the only one to have this ever happen to... The key fob's signal is surprisingly weak. If I put the key fob in the pocket with my phone the car wouldn't recognize it. If I put the key in the center console and leave my phone in the same general area, the car will say the key is not in...

I have had BV installed for about 2 weeks now. The reason for the camera to say an impact was detected is probably that you have set the parking mode horizontal G sensor's sensitivity too high so that when you closed the door, the camera registered it as a side impact.

My exact experience. I had Merc S350 before getting the MS and never worried about any of these things. After getting Model S, I started to worry, but then realized I really shouldn't care all that much. At the end, I only installed Blackvue DR650S-2CH for liability reasons. As for hand wash, my...

Mine was extremely unresponsive. Not once did my DS reply me within 48hr window and one times for an entire week until I sent him a reminder that he still hasn't answered my email. I'm not a pushy customer at all. All in all, I emailed my DS 4 times in almost 3 months (including coordinating...

I thought I wouldn't like red leather until I saw a white BMW 328 with red leather. It looked really nice. I wouldn't mind seeing that as an option. I most likely won't get it because I'm afraid that I will get tired of it too fast, but I'm sure some others will appreciate it.

All I want to say is: DMCA. Nowadays, farmers can't even alter modern John Deere tractors. Large automakers have resorted to say that ownership of the car is separate from owning the code that runs the car. Owning the car gives the owner lifetime license to use the code that's in the car, which...

I'm confused by how you can be confused by my comment. I simply stated that I have creep on because I have to park in a garage with tight clearance. Nowhere in my comment indicated that it's required. I have no preference on creep other than the fact that having creep on decreases the car's...

I have creep on only because the car needs to fit in a very tight garage. I only have about 15in total clearance in front and behind my car for the garage door to close. I tried to park in the garage without using creep but it was really nerve wracking. I don't like to mess with the setting so I...

Insurance is definitely more expensive compared to some other luxury sedans in the same price range. My diesel S350's insurance used to be only $1600 a year. For the same coverage and no ticket or incident, My 90D currently costs $2700 to insure. Geico, Mercury and AAA all gave me the same...

Picking mine up on the 29th. The car will be ready tomorrow, but I'll be in NY from 24th to 28th and don't want to take any other weekday off. The latest pickup they can do is at 4PM, so I would need to take the day off. Too bad. I was really hoping that it would be ready by last weekend. I...

Wow, my DS just brought non-professionalism to a whole new level. He emailed me yesterday at 9PM stating he is going to call me today to discuss about delivery and final purchase agreement and then he doesn't call. I emailed him asking if the call is still going to happen and got an automated...

Unless you are applying for an auto loan and need a better estimated delivery window and purchase agreement for application. Or unless you are wondering if they can get the car delivered before you leave town. Then there are other things like changing options and wondering if the refresh apply...

This for sure. I think the longest turnaround time from my DS was 5 business days.. yes a whole week. It's not longer because I sent him another email friendly reminding him that it had been a week. That was ridiculous. I emailed my DS three times in total or about once a month and he really...

Mine finally went in production. The time between confirmation and going in production is 56 days, which seems a bit on the long side.

Ah I never got around doing that (excuse for being too lazy to hit that page 1 and find the proper link.) It's now in the spreadsheet.

My DS finally got back to me after a week. He somehow still says that the car is on schedule for Mid-June delivery when it hasn't entered production yet.. I really want to believe that he is right, but I just can't.

My DS is Andrew.. surprisingly my adviser at Costa Mesa isn't that responsive as well, but he usually gets back to me within 48 hours, which is still acceptable. The DS on the other hand... has never gotten back to me within 48 hours.. That turnaround time is most impressive and encouraging...

I guess I'm not alone after all. 90D VIN1384XX still in queue. Given that people who are in production already have delivery date in late June, mine probably won't be delivered until mid July to late July at the earliest... My DS also still haven't gotten back to my last email that was sent last...

So far, not please with the entire experience at all. Probably worse than the haggling we had to do with the Merc/BMW dealerships. The communication with the DS is bad at best. I only sent two emails to my DS and both times he took more than 48 hours to get back to me. 90D VIN 1384XXX pushed...

Funny that you asked. I actually emailed my DS on Monday and he replied that the car is planned to be produced in the first week of June. I guess I would be out of a car for a while.

My delivery date just got pushed back from Late May - June to June - Early July 90D confirmed April 11th. VIN# 1384XX
