It appears they have also eliminated the EAP option.

They're definitely looking to relieve the inventory glut and the layoffs are not a good sign. I've noticed the same thing about the model S inventory here. Looks about the same as at the end of last month. We were in the showroom here yesterday asking some questions about the model S that arose...

Talked to a guy today at Van Horn, Tx. charger who had a brand new model S. We never got notified of this promotion and found out during a visit to the service center on March 27 for a minor recall. Not enough time to pull the trigger before that Sunday and would have jumped at the chance. The...

We were leaving Tucson on Saturday morning as the line was building in east Tucson and the nav told us to go back to charge, since Wilcox was 'completely' down. Since we were fully charged, we slowed down, did some drafting, intending to limp to Deming. Then stopped at Wilcox, since the app was...

That's what I'm thinking. She'll get used to it. I'll start steering her in the right direction until the next opportunity comes along. With summon not currently available, we'll definitely be waiting until that's resolved. It was her major reason for buying the current one in the first place...

Well, that's annoying. Just googled this and looks like it was discontinued early last year. Some were saying the feature would be available at the end of 2023, but now they're saying testing still in progress and it will be available 'soon'. Looks like a lot of people who didn't read the fine...

She was never a fan of the Y or the X (doesn't like the look), but the price point is certainly attractive.

Well, given the haste with which we had to check this out and that we weren't impressed with the knowledge of the rep we were dealing with, I wouldn't be surprised if we were given the wrong info. The claim was that to get both summon and TACC required EAP ($6k) and only basic CC was free. After...

Yeah, that won't work. Our other car is a 3. She's always liked the S more. But I think I can have her convinced by the next time this opportunity comes up.

Yeah, if only I could transfer just EAP.

That's definitely what this one was. Surprised me too.

We never upgraded to what passed for FSD on the S75, but do have EAP which was all that we wanted (summon and TACC), but the promotion is only to transfer lifetime supercharging and FSD, not just EAP. I'm convinced due to battery improvement and size, AWD, etc., but the wife doesn't like the...

My wife took in our 2016 model S for a warranty replacement of the battery fuse on March 27, and while in the waiting room overheard a conversation between another customer and a sales person. They were discussing trade-in of her model S with lifetime charging. Apparently there has been a...

Some sort of network outage/performance issue. Both of our cars having internet problems, navigation, streaming, etc. Supposedly, connecting to your phone hotspot with wifi is a workaround. Issue is apparently all over the west coast and as far east as New Mexico.

I paid one of Tesla's 'authorized installers' $650 and had the plug placed right next to the box inside the garage + swapping out a couple of breakers.

My daughter and I were taking her Mazda back to the bay area and stopped there between 12:15 and 1:15. I think part of the problem (at least at the time) was the fact that 41 was shutdown both directions about 1/4 mile east with a rollover and the tow truck blocking all lanes. Everything was...

As far as I can recall, it was 3-4 months.

We had a lease on a 2016 S75 that expired last September. Bought it from US Bank and financed through them and got $7500 off the residual.

Originally bought a S75 in September of 2016 (there was a good lease deal going on) to get to the top of the m3 list. Ended up buying out the lease last year and then buying the MR3 to replace a 2011 Lexus CT200h. Reliable but gutless which was only more pronounced after dirving the S for a while.

We have a 2016 MS with 2019.12.1.1. No difference from any other release. Works fine.

Stopped by here for the first time in a while today. Showed 5 available. Got there and 4 stalls were coned off, two cars waiting. Moved on. What’s up?

My neighborhood has probably 40% tile roofs. Most people (including us) just had the tiles removed where the panels were placed and replaced with regular shingles. Then put tiles back around the perimeter of the panels.

I've been seeing it on my S75 since about 4-5 months ago, but not on the 3.

That'll be my next trip. There are only 2 or 3 in the neighborhood and I put it on Nextdoor also. Probably left it sitting on the roof after opening the door.

Found a model 3 key-card on the sidewalk at the corner of Lakewood st. and Via Papel in University City.

Don't think it's this site. I've been coming here almost daily for the past 2+years and it has never been down.

The carbon-credit rebate went up to $500 last year. Already went up for this year for SCE and PGE. Don't know for SDGE, but info will be available March 1 (tomorrow).

I'm in the same boat and have no capacity for another 50amp breaker. Using a 120v 15a outlet right now, but have to watch out for what else might get turned on on that circuit. Happens to be on the one GFCI that was installed for all the plugs in 3 bathrooms (one of many corners cut by the...

That number seems out of line. Our lease on a 2016 S75 (upgraded from 60 for $2k) was up in September. Residual was $56k, but got it for $49k, but from US Bank.

Speaking as an 'old guy', I would say you're using a pretty broad brush here. Doubt if their age is at all relevant. Also, FYI, there are no paired 72kW superchargers (the smaller pedestals). Those are urban chargers with no sharing.

Got pre-approval started on Nov 7 and it was accepted on Thursday (Jan. 31) and then uploaded the signed DMV docs and (unsigned) MVPA from the 'My Account' link on the website and got final approval two hours later.

Just to clarify, I was referencing the firm (and its' practices), not the relative.

Bingo! I have a close relative who is a senior consultant at Deloitte. Not a source that I would give any credence to.

Yeah, figuring out how to do it took a while, though.

Preapproval docs submitted Nov. 7, message saying docs received on Nov. 8. Estimated time was 72 days (Jan 19). Car was delivered Dec. 30.

Turn on the fart app.

not sure why they would.

You might want to try an Uber forum.

Went from San Diego to Bremerton, Wa. in our S75 in September. Took the 101 from San Francisco all the way and never worried about charging. Plenty of SuC available on that route. Came back through Reno and Mammoth. Also no worries. We went to Jackson Hole in March and no worries if you go...

Saw this just now. Glad she didn't start the pump.

Did Gallup to ABQ and vice/versa twice soon after getting our 60s (before upgrading to 75s). No big concern either way, although we did get the annoying 'limit your speed' message on the westbound trip. Just slowed to 60-65 and got there fine. Didn't even think about it with the 75s on two trips...

Had the 1968 version. Sold it for $2k in 1973. Last time I saw one for sale, they were asking $450k.

I mostly agree, but there are more and more apartment dwellers with no other good option.

Pythagoras says just short of 56" on the diagonal.

San Diego Union-Tribune - Metro Ok article, but seems to have a problem with numbers, particularly the section on charging. $3000 for a charger and installation, charging at 37mph, 24 hours to fully charge at home.

Has anyone used the pre-approval process available in San Diego? I filled out the application and uploaded the required documentation but am wondering what happens when I get a VIN assigned? The pre-approval doc doesn't require a VIN or model info as the normal application does and there...

Depends. Price depends on how far from the panel you want the outlet. I've seen a low of around $350. Tesla's 'recommended' electricians will run around $600 for the same job. If you have a 100a panel, you may need to have SDGE upgrade it to 200. I would recommend UC Photons, although it's a...

Warp 9. Not quite as powerful as Warp 10.

Just bought out the lease on my '16 75 (upgraded from a 60) and paid $49k. US Bank threw in a $5k incentive to get it to that price, so the CPO price of $54k seems right.

I don't believe there was ever an option to go from 60 to 70, at least there wasn't for me when I upgraded to 75. Also, aren't there model 60s out there from prior to 2016 that were not a configuration that could be upgraded (battery was truly 60kW)?
