    Leaders and Managers: Flashy Tesla at Work?

    In my previous position we were 4 levels deep with Model S's. One of my front line engineers struck first, then me, then the manager between us, and finally my boss, the CTO. Engineering salaries are pretty ridiculous, so I don't think it signaled much beyond that.

    severe battery drain over <2 days sitting (~140 miles)

    Curious. This just happened to me as well. Model S75. Left it parked for 4 days while traveling. It (uncharacteristically) lost ~60 miles the first day, then held steady for 24 hours, then lost 110 miles the 3rd day, then drained from 29 miles to 17 miles in about half an hour the last day...

    Glass roof?

    I'm in TX and chose the metal roof for the same concerns about heat and brightness. Friends have since taken delivery of glass-roofed versions, so having had chance to experience both for a few months I wish I would have gone glass. Its beautiful, the heat difference seemed negligible, the...

    End of Quarter Build Quality

    My S was delivered the last day of the quarter. While the build was fine, I had to take it back to get wheels aligned, so perhaps they let that slip during the deliver check (they were definitely working round the clock at that point).

    Defective windshield on new P100D

    Definitely difficult to get a great pic of it, but in mine the bits are a more linear than droplet. I've got a service appt next Tuesday and I'll let you know what they say.

    Destination/delivery fee

    I requested it after reading about it, and the store guy asked how much it was likely to influence my decision to buy (order placed ~3wks ago) and I told him "as much as is required for you to make it happen". It took a few days but then he made it happen.
