    Can Tesla offer AP HW upgrade to AP2 on AP1 cars ?

    Thank you everyone for your inputs. Yeap, I agree 1) It would take a lot of new HW, money and effort to upgrade the AP and 2) Even it is feasible, Tesla may not be willing to do, for atleast to increase the sales on the new car.

    Tesla moments

    Yesterday, I was at the grocery store parking lot, loading the stuff in the Frunk. A family walks by and the guy excitedly asked " Does that have Ludicrous mode ?" ...I said "No" (mine is a Red S75)..He replied "Damn!" and his Wife loved the Red color on new Facelift.

    Tesla double dips on Destination Fee

    Did you take the delivery/pickup of your CPO in Atlanta or did they ship it to your state where you took delivery ? My comment was, if you live in a different state but picked or delivery of the car in a different state, you might be subject to pay sales tax in the state you picked the car, and...

    Tesla double dips on Destination Fee

    Check with your DS. In somecases, if you pick up a car from a different state that you plan to register it, you might have to pay double tax (in both states). When I asked my DS that I like to fly to Atlanta (where my inventory car was) and drive back to TX (where I live), he mentioned I might...

    Tesla double dips on Destination Fee

    As my Sales rep, if its an Inventory car (not a Loaner/Testdrive car), there will not be any additional Shipping fee. There will be Destination Fee ($1200) for all vehicles though.

    Tesla double dips on Destination Fee

    I recently got my new 2016 inventory model. Before ordering it, I was researching on CPO vehicles as well. They clearly mentioned there will be additional Shipping charge on CPO vehicles, depending on how far they need to ship it from. It can be anywhere between $500 - $3000. It is also...

    Tesla will match Carmax price

    I talked to Tesla agents about trade-in value of my ICE Jeep. They clearly mentioned, as they do not sell those ICE trade-in's themselves, they will simply turn them to Carmax/vroom.com with no profit. They are just doing this as favor, so some of us can get sales tax reduction. About the...

    Is it recommended to sign up for any Tesla Service plans ?

    I will be taking delivery of my new Model S next week. Just wanted to check if any recommendations from existing owners about, signing up for any Tesla service plans ? I under each checkup costs about $600. Tesla recommends yearly checkup, but how often (miles) do you usually take for check up?
