Why did they engineer the car that way then. Despite the hype, I bought the car to drive, not to sit around updating so I could lose features. As a customer it really just pisses me off that software engineers have never figured out a way to get tech to do the heavy lifting instead of the...

It is not gone for good, I can still keep the back camera up while driving. I had some problems with my car, so I installed the V 9 update. I leave the camera in upper portion most of the time. I do not look at mine constantly, but I am driving an Model X with a lousy rear view mirror. I asked...

This is an old thread, but we make that leg fine all the time. We have a Model X 100D. Charge up in Flatonia, coast through San Antonio traffic and construction, and try to keep it under 75. We get there with 40-80 miles left depending on the weather. A lot better than going to San Marcos. We...

I have a midnight silver 100D Model X

May be on more coming--Alex Chavez with his car, signed up on the T. O. of Central Texas FB page.. I thought wind farms and petroleum business would be the largest employers, lol. Better to pace yourself anyway, our cars can be very efficient at the lower speeds. Every time I speed going to...

I will be staying at my daughter's place and the Lazy Lion, but will attend the drinks at Hotel Limpia. It will be nice meeting other Tesla owners while checking out some of the places my parents use to take us every weekend. We used to go over to NM to find some snow back then too, at Cloudcroft.

Well, we will be there. If it all gets cancelled, we will see the sights of Ft Davis and surrounding area anyways!

In Texas our grid is getting better and better. The wind farms have an excess of power late at night and early in the morning. We are on a pay-as-you-go plan and we get paid to charge our car sometimes. Most days we only pay .$07/kWh to charge the car and it drops if we use early morning rates...

Go to FB. Type in Tesla parts. Go to pages and ask.

There will be two of us at Fort Stockton. probably before 4:30 PM. Looks like it will be more like 2 PM. We will be staying in the area Friday and then stay for all the plans on Saturday. We may be there for Sunday as I would love to go to Marfa, I am waiting for a response from relatives on...

As far as I know, it is occurring on February 9, 2019. There will be a road rally type of event in the Fall. It is even up as a scheduled event on the Tesla Club of Greater Houston.

I made my way to Fort Stockton SC last week. Went by Iraan also, just to see what it looked like and to check out the most productive oil well in the Permian Basin according to my son-in-law (Yates Oil Field - Wikipedia) and take a few photos of windmills from a different angle. I met 2 Model...

Do other companies feel free to come and take away features without permission.? No.

And why do we have to always re-learn how to use our cars? I did not ask for the update and I should not have to accept them without knowing exactly what is included with the update before it is downloaded to my vehicle. This is my car that I need to rely on and know how to operate day in and...

Yeah, I noticed that after I posted, lol. Wish I was 120 lbs. We own two Ancheer electric bikes, but I do not have a hitch on my X, so they take up the whole back area, unless i take off the front tires, fold them, bag em, and stack em. So it takes 20 minutes to do all of that, and 20...

Model S/X CHAdeMO Adapter As noted, the $450 CHadeMO adapter is only for S and X at present, although some believe Model 3's will have one also. Those CHadeMO adapters are huge, so if the $450 price tag or $200 rental fee with full deposit does not deter you, the space it takes...

I would vote for February 9th or Feb.16. My husband likes to watch the Super Bowl game. The August rally sounds awesome. We will be heading that way in November anyways, maybe we will scout around. Veterans Day is November 12th, right? I would be willing to meet up then, but I understood that a...

Not behind, just unique. And a bit refreshing. I could see how a 4-story luxury hotel might disrupt things. I have not been to Marfa for over 50 years,so I really could not imagine the hotel.com deal of the day was a luxury hotel in the middle of Marfa actually. The trailers and yurts sound...

With an indoor pool. And simple HTML coding, lol, how quaint! http://hotelpaisano.com/ That is the fastest loading site I have visited in a long time!! The booking pages are all secured. Hotel.com keeps wanting me to book at Hotel Saint George for only $266 and you have to walk a...

These wheels are either reconditioned or replicas. They do not state the wheel load capacity. They do not come with the tire pressure sensors or the center caps, just for anyone's information.

Those wheels are only rated for 1650 lbs. I thought the load capacity had to match half of the gross rear axle weight (3792/2= 1896 lbs wheel capacity needed for a Model x 90 D, so I assume it is needed for a 100D also)?

The rim capacity of a replacement wheel has to be over 1896 lbs/wheel in order to satisfy Tesla's specs, correct? So a 19 x 8.5 wheel rated for 2000 lbs would be fine. Or so I gather from the gross rear axle specs. Maybe I should contact the service center and see how much the wheels alone...

So Hotel Limpia has a destination charger? That was why its mentioned as a place to stay, it is good for an overnight charge? I remember reading the Fort Davis library had one as well?

From what I have read on the forums, there are a lot of mixed reviews. There are several people stating the wheel size did nothing for their range values, but they could now carry a spare. There is a chart with mixed Model S and X range values with various sized tires, but I never saw them...

TSW SEBRING 19 X8.5 5-120.00 35 SLGLMS Item# 50267 $264.00 The wheel capacity is 2000lbs, but the bore is 76. These have a larger center bore than the Tesla winter wheels, but could you use adapter rings to fit them, something like these: Although, I think the ID needs to be smaller...

I have been following this thread for a while. Decided to go ahead and sign-in and post. Love all of the recent updates (photos of the charging station and the unpowered meter) and hope you keep them coming. I am going to Midland before Thanksgiving and would love to go over to Fort Davis...
