No I’m not hoping to fully replace my max usage, my goal is to give the least amount of money possible to pg&e. In the very least, combine the $490 I’d be paying Tesla monthly, combined with what I use from pg&e, and have that number be less than the $1200 I’m paying currently. In an outage, I...

Hey guys, so i just received my latest proposal from Tesla for an array I’m planning on getting installed within the next month. We went back and forth on a few designs, as one of the things i’m spec Trying to do is hedge some of my power usage in my shop which runs both kilns and small AC units...

Picked up this 2015 p85d today in a Cheesecake Factory parking lot. The CPO guy met me there cuz its a bit closer to my work. Kinda funny. Paperwork and exchange took >5 min. Car is perfectly pristine inside and out, and driving on isade mode is literally insane. Makes your stomach feel funny...

Yea but does it have a windshield as well?

Can’t we just print up exact replica stickers with the newest color and put over the top of the old ones? Seems like a harmless way around this situation for producing zero emissions and obeying the 45,000 other California rules and fees already in place

I’m all for turning everything off and rolling in tranquil mode. But if doing so with a new passenger in my car, there will be a 100% chance of a random, and quite loud, fart noise coming on when i use my turn signal

Super helpful and good to know. Thanks man

Can you post a pic of the work done? I might hit them up

The other question I’m wondering, and why I was considering the lease option just to get my foot in the door, is you can buy it out at any time. I’m guessing that the 30% credit only applies when it’s first installed, no? If I could still receive the credit when I purchase the system, in let’s...

I agree with all this here, thanks for your reply. Like I mentioned earlier, I’m jumping the gun a bit as the engineering plans aren’t in yet from the initial assessment. I was just kind of spitballing ideas to see what others think. As far as the rough estimate they gave me, the guy said the...

It has all those options already. I was just unsure if there was something specific to that model and build date that people have done that are worth looking into. I’m just hoping since it was a 3/15 build it has the + SAS. I’ll find out when i see it i guess. Can you update the MCU for the...

I picking up a fully option’d out CPO (more like PO) 2015 p85d on Tuesday. ITS A 3/15 BUILD. I’m wondering what updates or upgrades can be done or if there’s anything else i can add to the car. -they’ve already updated 3g>LTE -I’d assume the MCU is updating to the latest software, but maybe not...

You sound like a basket case dude. Relax

Just bought a CPO p85d with the same deals.

Yea i have have similar info. And yes the 40k cost is WITH the ITC discount.I’m jumping the gun a bit here because my final engineering plans/costs will arrive next week and I’ll know much more than. Just kind of poking around here because this forum is so active and helpful. I’ll update when i...

If i’m signing up to lease (with intent to buy in a few years) a new solar installation with 2 Powerwalls and a 20kw solar array, does the $0 down payment apply to the whole system, or do i have to purchase the Powerwalls, and they just lease out the panels? I just had the assessment done on my...

It looks great, i’d Paint it that beige wall color you have on your wall. Fantastic setup tho!

People like myself use massive power during off peak hours, and very little during peak hours. Having multiple Powerwalls allows one to not only fully charge them during the day, but use the excess power generated from my roof panels to power the home. Then, during off peak, I’m able to further...

I just had the assessment done on my home. Should hear back from their engineers next week with the final bid. The rough estimates would be 2 Powerwall 2’s, a 20kw solar array, with a cost around 40k. You can either lease ($150 per mont in my case) or buy (which you could either pay cash or...

Thanks for all the input guys, it wasn’t even a really tough decision, but i’m Thankful for all your guys opinions on everything. This is a very intelligent, active forum. See y’all in the streets soon!

I use a boatload of power at night, off peak. My EV rates are significantly lowered during that time. I use next to no power during the day, during high peak. The 20kwh system with 2 power walls covers 60% of my overall home usage. I save 100’s every month between this.

Yea where i live in sunny California it rains like twice a year, although this winter has been like something I’ve never seen before!. But yea, no snow, barely any rain, perfect temps, and easy highway cruising on i80, 21”s are what I’m going for for sure

I’m also curious, pertaining to other p85D owners, what the current performance specs of a 2015 p85d as it is today. Meaning after the many updates it’s received since its inception, I’m sure it has different HP in the front and back, different torque, and other options not listed anywhere in...

So its possible that the listing says “2015 P85D” and in the features section says “smart air suspension” but it actually has the + suspension? Like i said, I’m kinda good with it either day. I miss my 2016 stage 3 Subaru STi every time i see one on the road. That little AWD car absolutely...

Yes spoke with my rep directly about that, and the obvious 19”silver wheels vs the 21” grey turbines as advertised. He was unsure why the wheels were swapped other than they must have had bad rash, and told me it has in fact been upgraded to LTE. Both would be confirmed as part of a “due bill “...

Also curious, after 42k miles, what’s the range when charging to 100%? (I know, just charge to 90%, just curious as to the max capacity of the battery after that many miles)

Love it. Love the white too, which is what I’ve been aiming for. But I’m close to pulling the trigger and have yet to find the options/price/location/miles of one with the look of yours. The obsidian black is a bit too murdered out for me, so this silver is looking like a great option. It...

First thing i noticed! Just got off the phone with my rep about it and they will be swapping out the silver for the 21” grey’s as advertised. He didn’t know why, but it was likely from curb damage. Another question from those following along, the build date on the p85d was 03/15. It has been...

Safe to assume range difference between at two after 45k miles is what, 5-10% more in the 90D?

They both are option’d out the same with everything i want, except the p85d has the tech package (which I’m still a little unclear what the difference is, given that they’ve both received multiple software updates since their build dates) Since i’ll Likely be pulling the trigger soon, I’d be...

Hey guys, on the nonstop prowl as we all are or have been in the hunt of our perfect car. I found two, eerily comparable, Model S’s that I’d love to hear your opinions on if willing to share. I’ve done a bunch of research regarding these 2 models and understand the basic spec differences...

Thanks for the info. Got a link to where you bought the wraps? Sounds like an easy cheap way to customize your interior

Is there a bunch of dismantling of parts? I’d be nervous doing that on my new car with no knowledge of Tesla’s or wrapping in general. Love that you went white though. Got a pic of it?

How easy is it to wrap these parts? I have no experience with that, is there a good YouTube video?

) You should be fired from your job and banned for this...... (sorry, i just haven’t read anything yet today to be outraged over. Gotta get my fix

Sorry to reply to this old post, but i had a question specifically related to this. I’m buying a used 2015 or 2016 model S. If it had the white stickers on it before, does that mean that specific car can NEVER have HOV stickers on it again? So it’d essentially be a one time deal? Or can the old...

Super solid car man, it looks great. Would you happen to know the cost of extending the factory warranty, and how long a new buyer would have to purchase it? Also, what was the mfg date for this car? I’m also curious if its been “uncorked” and what the 0-60 time is. I’m a little confused as to...

Solid car you’re getting rid of, looks to be in great shape. Can you let us know the build date, and does it have AP and LTE? Thanks

So the question would be, if it was HOV registered before, is that specific car NEVER able to have HOV access again?

Thanks for that info. It’d be safe to assume most used Tesla’s in CA had HOV stickers with the previous owners. If that’s the case, is there literally no way of getting them when registering the car in my name? You’d think CA would be happy to accept an egregiously taxed payment at the DMV for...

Can someone clarify this? Looking into buying a 2015 or 2016 model s. I live in California and need HOV for my commute. If the used car I buy was registered in CA by the previous owner, can I not get HOV stickers for my car? Is there no way for me to purchase them when I go to register it in my...

Great looking car. Does it have Autopilot 1 and LTE?

Hey guys i know this has been discussed many times here, but I was hoping to find some answers to a few questions now that we’re in 2019. I know there’s been changes to the rules/requirements recently and I’m a little unsure about the details of it all. First, as a California resident, if i buy...

Great news, thanks for the rec. I’m sure they’ll be able to rig something up that’d be considerably better than Tesla’s HiFi system for a similar cost.

My filtered, saved, search that had 16 available cars, now has 0. There was definitely some good prices, but it seems more likely some kind of glitch rather than all 16 of these vehicles being purchased in one afternoon, right?

Hey guys, did some light digging around on here and was unable to find a clear answer on if you can have the HiFi sound system installed on a CPO purchased without it already installed. Seems like this would be an easy thing they could do, right? If so, i’m Curious as to if anyone’s done this or...

I was curious about this as well. I found a really nice CPO without the HiFi sound package, and was wondering if you can easily have it installed and what the cost could be. Has anyone done this upgrade AFTER buying your car?

So ****in stupid.

I haven’t had a license plate on my car in California ever. 10 years and no cop has ever done/said anything about it

Probably Kyle. Judging by his response times it’d appear he’s got his plate full at the Fremont location.
