    Wondering why you can't discuss Elon's tweets? Preserved as an example.

    Are you saying Elon is a racist, or just that his tweets are vague enough to be interpreted as racist? And that's why the stock price has been going down?

    When Did the Tesla Hate Begin?

    @AmpedRealtor When did the Tesla hate begin? What was the last straw? What Tesla Model(s) have you owned? Are you a TSLA shareholder, and do you still recommend being a shareholder?

    Tesla/Musk Security - Seems To Be Making More and More Enemies

    Seems like Elon Musk just keeps making a larger target on himself and Tesla. Not only is he disrupting the energy and fossil fuel industries, he's pissing off the governments of two of the biggest world powers. Just seems like a hit on Musk, or a terrorist hit on one of his factories could make...

    Federal Tax Incentive debate

    Just doing a little fact checking before I vote. During the presidential debate Trump said he had given big incentives for electric cars. What was he talking about? I don't recall any new federal incentives in the last four years.

    Supercharger - Hood River, OR

    Do You Miss Your Model S?

    I'm looking for the opinions of people who went from a newer Model S (post refreshed front end) to driving an M3. Last week I had a 24hr test drive with a Dual Motor Model 3. I was thinking it would be a good time to trade in my almost three year old MS60 with AP2.0 hardware, for the latest...

    Can Two Phones be Paired to the Car at The Same Time

    I normally keep an old spare phone, with my latest music playlist on it, in my Model S, as my main music source. Will this cause trouble with the M3’s phone as fob system?

    HEADING OUT TOMORROW FOR PALM SPRINGS

    Time for my bucket list road trip. From Portland I'm heading to the Lincoln City Supercharger then taking the 101 down to San Francisco. Doing the Tesla factory tour Friday morning, then taking three days to get to PS. The only things so far planned are to see General Sherman, the biggest...

    Does Anyone Like Their Model S More Than Their Model 3?

    Seems to me like the car that broke Consumer Reports' rating system is getting it's ass handed to it by the Model 3. I have yet to hear anyone say they prefer their Model S over their Model 3. Should I sell now before my car is worth less than the new best car ever?

    MODEL 3: Is TACC Available Without EAP Option?

    This a question for those of you that didn't purchase the auto pilot option. If there's anyone out there that didn't. Do you get TACC functionality or just basic cruise control functions?

    Model 3 Crash Safety

    The main reason that I bought a Model S was for it's safety record. Now that the Model 3 is here and it's looking to be an amazing car, it's got me thinking about exercising my first day reservation and then selling my S. Is there any chance that the probability of injury in an accident could...

    TESLA BIT BY DOG

    My daughter’s 16 year old friend came over last night and told me about a recent baby sitting experience. She said their dog was put in the garage and she found it chewing on the Tesla. She took a couple of pictures of the aftermath. WTF?

    Will Older Vehicles get the Smart Phone-Based Unlocking System?

    Tesla releases new Model 3 pictures to show its key card and iPhone-based unlocking system I've been wishing for this feature ever since I got my car. I would love not worrying about carrying my fob around. I can't rely on the app because my car doesn't get cell phone service inside the...

    After the M3 Reveal, Who Regrets Their Recent Model S Purchase?

    Anyone Have a Picture of the 19" Slipstream Wheels painted Grey?

    I saw a brown Model S the other day (one of my favorite MS colors, by the way) with grey 19" wheels. Thought they looked great and I was planning on getting my wheels painted the Tesla grey wheel color. After looking at the pictures I took, I realized they are not the same slipstream wheels...

    What Time of Day/Night Should I Charge for Smallest Carbon Footprint?

    I was thinking it was during off peak hours, but then again maybe it's during the day, when solar power is being produced. This could very well be true for a Californian, but I live in Oregon. I would guess the answer is very complicated, and depends on where you live, but I was wondering if...

    Number one argument against electric cars is now completely debunked

    Number one argument against electric cars is now completely debunked I don't doubt the conclusion that overall electric cars emit less carbon than the equivalent service from gas powered but it raises questions: what does "average electric car’s equivalent mpg on the electric grid" mean? do...

    Looks Like They Fixed the Front of the Model 3

    I know this is being discussed in another thread, Front End... Hmmmmmm, but it seems kind of buried in there. I think this deserves it's own thread. This is big news. The front shown at the reveal was really disappointing.

    Insufficient Heat for Backseat Passengers

    I don't have the third row child seats. I'm just talking about the regular backseat. I'm a bit surprised by the small amount of heat that comes out of the vents for the backseat passengers. There's plenty of heat for the front of the cabin. In addition to the vents on the back of the center...

    PremiumShield or Xpel for paint protection?

    I just got off the phone with an installer. He said he would install either one for the same price, but that PremiumShield was a slightly better product and has a lifetime warranty. $4,000 for whole car + $400 for the roof if non-pano. The two other quotes I got were over $5,000 for Xpel...

    HELP! I'm stuck in a snow storm

    How many miles of charge does running the heater use. I'm stuck in Lake Oswego Oregon and can't get home. All traffic has come to a very slow crawl. I may have to sleep in my car. I have 100 miles of range left. Day #3 with my new car

    Superhero Car

    When I test drove the Model S, It felt like what I would imagine it would feel like, to drive a superhero car. Sort of otherworldly. Has anyone else had this feeling when they first experienced the car? If so, how long does that feeling last, after driving it on a daily basis?

    Longer Build Times With New AP 2.0 Cars

    Got the "production started today" email on November 17th. I finally emailed my DS today for an update because I hadn't heard anything since the 17th, and this is what he wrote back: Hi Electroman, "Since the launch of the updated autopilot hardware, we’ve seen some longer build times as...

    Divorce and the Big Car Payment

    I'm looking at a 72 month loan from US Bank for 1.74%, but I don't qualify for it unless I use my wife's income, and have her cosign. I can get a loan with Alliant for 1.99% and have the loan in my name only. A lot could happen in six years. Is it worth paying a little more interest to make...

    Where's the Dolphin?

    I don't get why they don't offer a decent grey color. The old dolphin grey was the best color. The new grey is way too drab. Why did they eliminate the dolphin grey? Will it ever come back?

    Tired of the $100,000 Car

    Feel free to spend $100,000 on a Tesla, but it's really a $45,000 car, after the rebate, with a $15,000 battery. The base model is more car than 90% of the population really needs. Spending double the base price isn't going to get you a nicer paint job, better body panel fit and finish, more...

    Erroneous "Facts" Stated By Sales and Service Employees

    My limited experience with Tesla sales people, during my few visits to my local showroom, has shown that they tend to lack a lot of knowledge about their products. I just wanted to warn people to be wary of what they are told by Tesla employees. You need to do your own research. I wanted to...

    Purchasing Music From the Touchscreen

    I was wondering if we have the ability to sample songs, and purchase them from the touchscreen. I'm assuming that iTunes might not work because it is a separate program. But what about Amazon Music and eMusic that are browser based? Sometimes I sample music from CD's, when I'm driving, and...
