    WTB used Model 3 - value priced, high mileage RWD, no options

    Greetings folks! I bought my 2014 Model S a few years ago using TMC from a private party seller and had a very positive experience. After sifting through the pages of "For Sale" Teslas I'm not seeing what I'm looking for there. I want to replace a Honda Civic that was unfortunately rear...

    EVWheels Direct 20” EVR Roadster Replica Wheels for S

    After some research and a little procrastination (missed the 25% off Christmas sale) I decided to pull the trigger on a set of EVWheels Direct “Roadster” replica wheels. I’m keeping my “old” 2014 S85, it still drives like new and I’m still loving it. Link: EVR "Roadster Style" Wheel for Tesla...

    DIY MS Door Handle Repair

    If you’re a tinkerer like me you enjoy working on your own cars whenever they need attention. Spending a couple hours with my car lets me get to know it better.

    Could Tesla SuC be used by ALL EVs?

    Why couldn’t Tesla make a profit off of non-Tesla EVs by allowing them to create an account, buy an adapter and use the SuC network? The cost of electricity for non-Tesla vehicles could easily be double what it is now, even with the new rate hike, and people that drive the Chevy Bolt, new...

    What to expect during a software update

    I did some looking around and didn’t see an example of a software update progressing through its various stages. I apologize if this is out there and I just missed it.

    Road trips in MS 85

    Road trip experiences seem to be scattered throughout the forums, so I guess I’ll park mine here. Maybe others can see what I did and do better or get an idea of what worked for me. This first post will show a trip from NJ to Western PA. This was my first time driving a MS outside one test...

    To go ELECTRIC or not? That is the question...

    Maybe this is the right area to park my thoughts and encourage others to post theirs... I appreciate the people that come up to me and want to convince me that driving my Tesla Model S 85 is a bad idea. Buying a car can be an emotional experience, but for those looking to do a little more fact...
