My tire has a nail in it, and I'm looking for recommendations on tire repair shops that people have been happy with. Basically trying to find shops with Tesla experience. I'm on the far north side of Chicago, so any recommendations in that area, Skokie, Niles, Morton Grove, Evanston, Wilmette...

Still out in Chicago at 10:44 a.m. and no problems with my phone's AT&T LTE.

I drove by Sunday and saw same thing. Pretty full lot, but no spaces ICE’d. Also saw my first Model 3 in the wild. Was parked there charging. No owner to be found though. Would have liked to hear the owner’s first impressions.

I noticed these are included in the car’s navigation now and they are listed as the 72kW chargers.

If yours is the white car, what tint percentage do you have?

Here’s a pic...

Confirming these are open. Pulled in with 62% and plugged in. Only getting 26kW right now.

Drove by today and construction fences are still up. Will check again this weekend.

This location is a few minutes from my house. I’ll keep an eye on the construction and will keep this group updated on progress. It’s a great location for chargers—highway is close and the Village Crossing area has all kinds of stores, food options, and a movie theatre.

Unrelated to these chargers, I'm wondering if any of you on this thread have your Model S windows tinted. I've looked in to doing, but would love to see a tinted version up close (not driving) -- preferably 35% all the way around. If anyone has them, and you're up for meeting me, let me know...

Went to the owners' event a month or so ago and learned that the Lincoln Park location will be in an area near North and Clybourn.

Just seeing this. I was in Milwaukee too (coming from Chicago). Milwaukee didn't offer many charging options. I didn't need to charge, but had looked up what was available. Where did you end up charging?

I should note that I'm headed back to Milwaukee tomorrow and will be stopping to charge again. So, will report back.

SOC was around 70%. I was headed to Milwaukee and then driving back to Chicago late so wanted to be sure I didn't have to charge on my way back through around 12:30 am. Battery was not cold. I had warmed it up while plugged in in my garage and had been driving for around an hour. No one else...

Yikes, I was there today and only getting 30-34 kW. Was the only car there.

Didn't say it was a value at $40. Was $25 for exterior and $15 for interior. Was comparable to several places I looked up, though.

Took my car into Chicago Auto Pros (Glenview) for a wash today. Nice guys and good work. $40 for exterior and interior hand wash. Will go back. Worked with Greg to schedule an appointment and talked a lot about future detailing options, Opti-Coat, etc. Nice guy, and not pushy at all. Give them...

Talked with Tesla Highland Park and they recommended the two below, both near them. -Splash in Northbrook -Norm's Hand Wash in Wilmette

Anyone in Chicago or north burbs have a recommendation for a good car wash location? Somewhere they hand wash and use the two bucket method. Appreciate any recommendations. Interested in good detailers as well.

Is this only an issue if you check the boxes to have the door open and close automatically when you come and go? Right now, I don't have those boxes checked. Have just been touching the screen to open and close.

Have had a very good experience with my loan officer at Alliant. Application was simple and heard back from the loan officer quickly. Applied on Labor Day and heard from him the next morning. Received the loan papers quickly and he did a good job working with my delivery specialist to make sure...

Questioned my DS today and was told it was offered to those who ordered from Aug. 4-22. Couldn't get them to give me the discount because I ordered back in mid-July. So, it was a legitimate incentive.

Reached out to my DS in Chicago to get their thoughts on the waived $1,200 offer. Guessing they'll tell me "no chance," but it's worth a shot. Thanks for the post about it.

I'll second the "How did you get the $1200 doc fee waived?" post above. Please share.

Finished production of my 75D today and now in transit. My updated window is now September 8-22. Shipping to Chicago...

In production as of Friday morning. Ordered on 7/14 and confirmed on 7/21. Spreadsheet updated.

I'm also waiting on a car with gray seats. Confirmed on 7/21 and have been told they don't expect any issues with my order. So, we'll see. Hope I didn't just jinx myself.

Sitting in the production queue waiting for my 75D. Order confirmed on 7/21 and hoping the car enters production in the next week or so. Killings hours and hours of wait time by reading this forum, cleaning the garage, talking to my electrician about setting up charging in my garage, and...

Thanks for the post. My order went in back on July 14 so I'm just waiting now.

Appreciate you taking the time to share. I'm a future Chicago owner. Order confirmed last week and a late August or early September delivery. Looking forward to my first road trip in the S and hope it's as successful as yours.

Looking to put in my order by this Friday for a Model S, but have some final questions that I'm hoping a Chicago-based owner can help answer. Anyone in the city or surrounding suburbs available to chat in the next day or so about your experience with Model S around here, ComEd costs, adding 240V...
