    Any SEA/PDX area detail shops that will pick up your Tesla for you at delivery?

    503 Motoring did all 3 of my cars. They were about a third less than the quotes I got from the Seattle/Kirkland shops.

    Musicar Northwest

    MusicarNW upgraded the audio system in my 2012 Model S, 2015 Model S and 2017 Model X. Very professional and do great work. They are very familiar with Tesla's in general. Tom and Nick are great to work with.

    Software Update 2018.39.5 a1c2332 (first 9.0 release)

    So true, my wife is super-pissed that Tesla changed her camera location after 6 years of having up at the top. Hey Tesla employees monitoring the forums, please give us the ability to swipe the camera and other apps up to the top.

    Atari games coming . . .

    Dude, Elon, if you're gonna put Atari games on the infotainment system, why not allow us to stream videos to the screen when parked?

    Premium Connectivity Package and Order Date

    If they are going to charge money for music streaming, then Tesla should make sure that the service is reliable and doesn't drop in the middle of listening like it currently happens in all of my Teslas.

    Alternative 22 inch wheels for range

    Good info to think about with my next tire purchase.

    Alternative 22 inch wheels for range

    I have 22" TSportline MX115 and Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 tires. Compared to my OEM 20", the larger wheel and tire combo is much less efficient. I thought the significant weight savings of the MX115 would help, but I have not seen it.

    Tesla broke my Autopilot -> Don't UPDATE!

    This x 100. I usually drive with one hand on the wheel with autopilot and have started to drive with two hands on the wheel. But this new update doesn't recognize when I'm holding on with both hands. It seriously requires more effort now, which I believe is more dangerous.

    Any pics of the new Roadster rear seats?

    A At least it has a cup holder

    MCU Retrofit

    I'm hoping that a MCU retrofit will also allow an upgrade to the older rear camera. I tried to upgrade just the camera in my 2015 Model S and was told that it was impossible because of incompatible hardware.

    Suntek vs Xpel?

    People get way too worked up over one film or another. I have Suntek on my Model S and Xpel on my Model X. I LITERALLY can not tell the difference looking directly at them and can only see a slight difference with reflected light in my garage. The MOST IMPORTANT aspect that I have experienced is...

    Supercharger - Vancouver, WA

    The charge cables on each pedestal are still tied up. The stalls were not ICE’d today when I drove by, but I did see that the parking signs read as 60 minute general parking. No dedicated electric car charging only signs. Hopefully the location is undesirable enough to discourage ICE cars.

    New Supercharger locations in 2017, WA

    The basil pineapple fried rice at Thai House is excellent. On a more relevant note, looking through the L&I permit list did not show any supercharger activity from 10/1/17 to today.

    Supercharger - Vancouver, WA

    Crap...60 minutes general parking. Everyone get ready for these spots to be ICE'd on a regular basis.

    Falcon Wing Doors, self cleaning interior?

    I had this problem. Your seal should have a channel to divert the water down the B and C pillars. The channel is likely crushed together so the water just rolls over it onto the seats. Take it to the service center and they'll replace the seals under warranty.

    DrTaras' Model X gets customized!

    Yes, sometimes an error code would show up on the screen of the laser gun while it is being jammed. However, I have not seen an error code pop up with the newer jammers and guns currently in use. Unlike radar, the police have no way of detecting a laser jammer. The only way to tip off a cop you...

    DrTaras' Model X gets customized!

    The Escort 8500 CI was introduced in 2010. The radar portion is just like their 8500x50 windshield model. There are many older reviews that show it is a good to very good radar detector. I wouldn't change that out unless you wanted top of the line Ka-band detection or auto-learning of false...

    DrTaras' Model X gets customized!

    Curious, why install the older Escort 8500 with the ZR-3 laser jammer heads on new car? Are the variable pulse laser guns not used in southern California?

    10k for STek full body?

    Dude, just drive down to Portland to 503motoring and they'll do a full wrap on a model X for $5k. Take the money you saved and take a nice vacation. They've done my last two Teslas and they do a great job.It boggles my mind that Seattle owners would tolerate paying those kind of prices.

    Blackvue Cameras installed in the MS

    Unless they changed the windshield, your Passport Max2 detector won't work. You need a custom install.

    3m pro vs xpel

    I have 3M, Suntek and Xpel on my Teslas. I can't tell the difference. Most important factor is the skill of the installer. ALWAYS get the film to cover the edges!

    Pirelli P Zero

    Nope! I had them after the OEM Conti's wore out and hated them. They were loud and less efficient. Once I switched to the Michelin SuperSports, my range, handling and road noise improved.

    Tesla should surround destination cities with superchargers

    I have every adapter know to mankind. I even have a 10 ft j1772 extender so that I don't have to park backwards at electric avenue and get ticketed. My one-way trip from Olympia to Portland is about 125 miles. This leaves me enough range that I have to charge around 2 hours at a Blink station...

    Tesla should surround destination cities with superchargers

    I love the recent expansion of the supercharger network along Hwy 101. I just wish that Tesla would place superchargers outside of city limits so day trips from out of towers would be more convenient. For example, when I travel to Portland and either stay overnight at a hotel without charging or...

    Supercharger - Bend, OR

    Bend is kind of a EV waste land for chargers until the supercharger opens. If you have time to stop, my recommendation is to stop and charge at the Tetherow golf resort in the southwest part of Bend. They have a Tesla HPWC at 80 amps/204 volts. It is free to use. They have two very nice...

    New SC in Seattle

    More Superchargers is a good thing. Tesla should surround major city centers with Superchargers. Sometimes level 2 chargers are not conveniently placed and routine driving in the city for out of owners like myself drains the battery low enough that I get range anxiety about making it home. Last...

    Poll: How do you feel about Grill-less front end styling?

    The biggest problem with the nose is a lack of contrast. It needs something to break up the flat plane that makes it look stubby and not sleek.

    Q for the Lucky Folks who Own Two Teslas

    We own two Model S's. I have a HPWC @ 80 A and a standard 120 V that we use. My wife doesn't drive as much every day as me, so plugging overnight on trickle charge works well for her. Any long trips she has planned; she just plugs into the HPWC. We have not felt the need to install another HPWC...

    Winter Tires question - rolling resistance?

    I swear by my 245/45/R19 Nokian Hakka R2's on my P85. They are more efficient on cold roads than my 21" Continentals and Michelins. I never thought I'd get more range from winter tires than on summer tires.
