    Blog Target to Install 600 Charging Stations at More Than 100 Stores

    less than 5% of hotels is better than no hotels. i'm in the Denver area. we only have about 3 hotels with chargers. 2 destination and 1 super. the hotel I work at is installing 9 destination chargers. things are happening. none of this is bad. it just takes time.

    (Denver/Boulder area) Looking for recommendation for powder coating

    Colorado detail was great for me as well. Most of the places I called would only take the wheels which is crazy. With Colorado detail I just dropped off the car and picked it up when it was ready.

    dude, buy a used vehicle, EV or otherwise. It's really dumb to buy a new car if you're only going to have it for a year or two

    Wireless charging in Model S

    don't phones move around too much on the charging pads to get consistent charges?

    POLL - Glass Roof

    it's pretty sexy. i've never had heat issue in my MS and i have black interior. On the other hand, my GMC acadia with black interior is an inferno when it's out in the sun.

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    didn't realize it but even the 100 only goes 0-60 in 4.1 That said, the 100 has enough extra range (75 extra miles is huge) to differentiate from the 75.

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    i was thinking the 90 owners could feel a little spurned by this...but you do have an extra 35 miles of range, right? that said, you've definitely got a bigger gripe than the 75 RWD or 75D unlikely owners.

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    i just called and set up my rotation and uncorking appointment for Wednesday morning. i was surprised they could get me in that soon. i have that before we know it, they'll be filling up with tire rotations that'll put them back a month. i'm assuming tire rotation is only going to cost about...

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    Definitely doesn't appear to be accurate. Call the denver littleton service office and ask them if you're eligible. They will look up your VIN and let you know. Then perhaps you can get back with your local service team to inform them of the hopefully good news.

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    They're improving the car all of the time as far as i see. I took ownership of mine in Early May and they are constantly adding new features and improving autopilot. I vote for tesla trying to improve all cars all of the time. Some may get luckier than others, but this is a really cool thing...

    Uncorking official for most 75Ds!

    Dear friends who aren’t eligible. Stop being so butt hurt when Tesla tries to make their cars better. If it made YOUR car better, surely you wouldn’t have a problem with that. I have a 75D upgraded from 60. Hoping I’ll be eligible. If not, I’ll be a little let down but you won’t hear whining...

    Smart Air suspension confirmed for Model 3

    I'd scratch the bottom of the front of my MS on my driveway if i didn't have it. If it wouldn't have been an issue we would've passed.

    Bad time to buy?

    Best way to purchase is to wait until the next sizeable update. They just cut the 0-60 time by about a second, a couple months ago, right? Wait for the next big update. Something should happen by end of year. Also probably want to buy by end of year for free supercharging.

    iPhone bricked? B/C of tesla??

    happened to me a couple weeks ago. Happened to my wife today. I have a weird feeling it's because of the tesla app or the way my MS is interacting with our phones. We both got stuck on the apple logo trying to start up over and over in an endless cycle. Anyone else had this issue lately...

    Supercharger - Denver, CO

    yes on inside info. the area location i'm talking about is not shopping center related. I'll just say it's in the quebec street area. that said, i would imagine the location i know if is probably not going to be the only location in this area. I wouldn't be surprised if they were looking to...

    Supercharger - Denver, CO

    Stalls coming to a location in Stapleton in the near future (hopefully within the next 6 months). Here's the interesting part. It's a mix of Tesla superchargers and Chargers for other EV's.

    Poll: 81% of Prospective Model 3 Owners Say They Won’t Pay Upfront For Full Self-Driving

    I thought about it for a minute but when the Tesla dealer says they have no idea when it might be available for use and you realize that your home state needs to regulate it and get it all figured out, it was an easy No. Autopilot 2 is getting better but it's not even close to where it needs to...

    Tesla hurt their own profits by putting wimpy chargers in 3's.

    i've got a MS 75D. i drive about 40 miles per day. i charge on a standard 110 outlet. I've dropped below 100 miles of range maybe twice in 3+ months so i decided to give the car a day off during those two ocassions although i didn't really HAVE to.

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

    I've had a little buyers remorse. I've got a fairly well loaded MS 75D, so cost is around $80K after tax credits. I would've probably spent about $60K after tax credits on the model 3. That said, the model is larger sexier, a bit more luxurious, more trunk space, the instrument cluster and...

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    I've been getting a humming sound (from the motor?) when i start the car. Not every time, but when it happens it's very noticeable. It seems like it's usually really hot out and when i'm cranking the AC, but not sure if that really has anything to do with it. The sound/vibration usually goes...

    17.26.92 Update

    i've got version 17.26.76. got it about a week ago. i was excited for silky smooth, but i have yet to feel it, or not feel it. the stretch of highway i drove on was not an ideal drive for the previous software autopilot. now that the update has been completed, still not ideal. equally as...

    How to approach landlord about charging?

    if i were your landlord and you were a good tennant, i would say, i'll cover the charge, assuming it's going to be under $1,000 if you extend your lease for another year. Anything over $1,000, i'd probably offer to split the cost.

    Auto Pilot doesn't seem quite ready for prime time

    it's most useful and slower and especially stop and go highway driving. it also works well on very straight highways. that said, my highway drives have too many turns and it's constantly getting too close to other cars. i kind of wish they would roll out the silky smooth update to a wider...

    MX 0-60 Increases! (75D and 100D)

    Well color me jealous. I knew it would eventually happen but I isn't think it would be that nice of an upgrade. I bought a 60d in April and upgraded it to 75 when they made the lineup change and cut the price of the upgrade. I was annoyed I didn't get the power liftgate but I did get the SAS...

    AP2 minor accident

    ewwww, i gotta say, i don't trust AP in construction type areas or other weird merge areas. i find it best in the middle lane on roads that aren't that curvy and especially in stop and go type stuff. Otherwise, i'm generally not using autopilot.

    Feedback from S60->S75 converts

    got my 60 a couple weeks ago. just upgraded to 75 a few days ago. i like having the extra cushion. i also knew that i would eventually do it someday, so why not now? also, we are charging on a 110v outlet. it will cost me $1,000 to convert to a 220 for faster charging but we plan on moving...

    How long does it take to get your badge upgraded?

    Thanks for the feedback. I guess I'll give them a call. Seems kind of silly that they're in back order. I mean they can't be that hard to produce, right? Alwoupd love to have someone come to me to do it. I would wait any amount of time for that option.

    How long does it take to get your badge upgraded?

    I just upgraded from a 60 to a 75. I see they offer to upgrade the badge on the car and was wondering if that's a quick in and out thing or if i should just wait until i need to bring it in for a service (hopefully not for a long while from now).

    Does anybody NOT wrap their cars?

    i thought about it until the guy told me i couldn't take it to a car wash anymore. wait a second, i need to pay $2,000 so i can hand wash my car? No thanks! I'll touch up paint and dings in a few years if necessary.

    New 60 can be charged to 100% daily without harming long-term battery

    New 60 can be charged to 100% daily without harming long-term battery
