    From Hoover, Alabama.

    Hello, I'm a new Model S 75 owner in Hoover, AL. Have had the car for a couple weeks now. So far so good! We plan to try using this as our main family car (2 small kids). Originally had a Model 3 reservation but decided to go with a bigger car and try being an SUV-less family.

    Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker and finally decided to join as I'm getting ready to (hopefully) put my deposit down on a brand new Model S75 before they disappear. When I was quite a bit younger people would ask me what kind of car I wanted to drive; I'd always answer, "an electric one!"...

    A little late on the introduction

    I guess my story goes back to 1999 when I saw a commercial for the original Honda Insight hybrid. I bought mine in Feb 2000, when I totaled the car in Sept 2001 I had averaged 72.9 mpg over 48K miles. I bought a second Insight immediately. That car finally died in Feb 2015 with 280K miles on...

    Twice a Model S 90D owner but new to this forum

    Hello world! For a quick summary, I love cars; but more importantly, I also have a decent enough physics background to know that ICEs are a waste of energy for transportation, and my first attempt at owning an EV, back in 1996, ended up in a nono: I didn't want to hire the batteries (this was a...
