    Suggestions to extend mobile charger length

    I charge a Model S in the garage with a mobile charger. 1450 Nema socket. No problems in 7 years. We now want to also change my wife’s Y in the garage. Current mobile charger just reaches her car but it’s tight. I feel it may be too much stress and looking to extend the current 24’ length with...

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    I went thru that debate. I was coming from a 2016 Model S 90D. Chose the Plaid and got it last month For me, I like the performance upgrade and am happy with my choice For you, sounds like a couple cosmetic upgrades the the regular S should do the trick Good Luck!

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I did exactly the same recently with my 2016 Model S. I too believe I got more money with the FUSC left with the car I sold than any benefit keeping it for my new car was worth. It’s hard to measure accurately, but I’m good with my decision.

    Opinion on selling 2016S90D Do I sell with supercharinging or transfer it to new Model S

    OP here. I did sell my car with supercharging included. I have a new S on order, actually got VIN but put it on the 2 week hold. Your guess of 3,000 sounds like a fair guess. I am happy with the price I got but part of me still wonders of I did the right thing. IF I in fact got 3k more than I...

    I plan on leaving the supercharging with the car. I will get a pic of the IC and MCU. Not sure what options/features from the app you’d like. The MCU screen was replaced once under warranty as it had the common problem of yellowing. It’s been fine since they replaced it

    I’m inclined not to take the supercharging offer. I don’t use supercharging much and will hope I do a little better on the sale with the transferable charging

    Model S 90D

    I have a December build 2016 S 90D it’s a fairly rare combo of free SC01 transferable supercharging and AP 2.0. The autopilot 2.0 cars were only built near the end of 2016 2016 was an odd year for the Model S It started with the old nose one, then got upgraded to the refreshed front end, then...

    Stealth Gray

    I went by the Irvine store ( Orange County, Ca ) to see if they had a sample of the Stealth Gray so I could compare it to the Midnight Silver Nope, no samples yet and according to them none anywhere in this area They knew about the color change tho Seems odd that you can’t even see the color ( I...

    SoCal Edison "TOU-D-PRIME" Super Off Peak - How to take advantage of the lower rates?

    I am seeing the same thing. No baseline allowance. The other 2 TOU plans do have a baseline allowance. This is of interest to me as I am on D-Prime and SCE wants us to recertification her Medical Baseline Allowance. Am I correct in assuming a Medical Baseline allowance offers no benefit under...

    Model S/X minor refresh coming soon?

    Thanks for the push!! My 8 years is up late 2024. Certainly a big consideration when I lose all warranty coverage then I’ve been fortunate so far About $900 total service center charges over the years $700 of that was for an out of warranty air suspension compressor

It was nice but not enuf to get me to change I then test drove a Plaid with my son Night and day. We were both blown away. Just impossible to imagine the acceleration unless...

    SCE TOU questions

    I can’t recall exactly how I arrived at that decision, but I believe that the higher daily cost of Prime was more that offset by the lower non-peak charging rates. I’m sure our fairly high usage played into that decision. We produced 22.6 and 23.2 MWh over last 2 years to pretty much break even...

    SCE: TOU-D 4-9pm or TOU-D Prime

    Re: SGIP. I was fortunate to be in a fire zone and was able to get a backup battery pretty much for free. SCE required me to either pick 5-8 or Prime. No other TOU plans qualify is what I was told. We had a medical baseline, but can’t use that with Prime
