    Model number vs Actual consumption

    A few weekends ago, I attended a party and I was explaining the feature of the car the capacity of the batteries and stuff. Then two days later, as I was driving in the "spring" like weather and I was enjoying the consumption being around 190-180, it made me wonder about the recent twitter...

    DIY install of Tesla WC in Ontario, any unique/unexpected provisions under Ontario Electrical Code?

    My plan is to DIY install a Tesla Wall Connector AND apply for the 50% Ontario rebate. The rebate is worded such that an Ontario Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) inspection(s) seems to be required (of which I can get a 50% rebate on as well). I plan on a 60 amp circuit breaker, 6 gauge wire...

    Can anyone in the Toronto area recommend a good place to get paint protective film (PPF) installed. My model S is three months old and I am terrified what the winters and road salt are going to do to my paint. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Highway 401 Experience

    I guess most of people definitely drove enough kilometers on ON-401 How's your experience when driving Tesla? I am NOT an aggressive driver but I am reducing Auto Steer usage on 401 in order to drive safely. People driving on 401 are stupid. They cut lane in front of you and AP isnt act...

    White paint regrets?

    Do any Tesla owners that chose white regret their decision in wintery Canada? I've never owned a white car, but some friends are trying to convince me away from white because it shows dirt so easily. I'm in Vancouver.

    Classic Model S for Model 3? (and a bit of history)

    A bit of history: I've had my classic Model S 60 for almost four years now (VIN P33xxx) with a bit more than 100,000km. It was a great ride overall and a very practical one, to say the least (a sedan with 7 seats! It doesn't get better than that) Of course, I've had my share of issues, with some...

    Dashcam users in Toronto/Ottawa/Montreal?

I live in Ottawa, but would be willing to travel a little bit to have it installed. Does anyone in the region have...

    The long road ahead for the electric-vehicle revolution - from G&M

    A very long story in today's G&M on EVs. The story has suprisingly little mention of Teslas, other than some inaccuracies regarding SCs. It focuses more on the incumbent manufacturers and talks more about the Bolt, Leaf, etc. It's a fairly realistic appraisal of the situation but seems a bit...

    Loaner cars with Summer tires in Winter!

    Picked up a loaner Friday from Mississauga and they gave me a P90D with summer tires. I barely made it home last night in the snow and I'm afraid to drive it today in the snow. I appreciate Tesla giving us loaners but please, INSTALL WINTER TIRES on them! Geez!

    Why are the Markham & Etobicoke Superchargers taking so long?

    This is starting to get ridiculous. Markham has been under construction for 98 days and Etobicoke for 76. What's going on??? Both sites seem to be complete. Markham has looked complete for a long time now with Etobicoke now looking complete for the past 2 weeks.
