Introductions

Howdy TMC, tesla fan and future driver (er, passenger, because autopilot). Wait, i'm an actual customer, since I have purchased swag from the Park Meadows location. Anyway, my big claim to fame is I have the same number of kids as Elon Musk, and also have a Space X pen that he himself used...

Hey guys, Been lurking for a while, decided to sign up after I saw Martin_vanB's post on why he got a model X. I picked up a multicoat red P85+ with smoked 21`s on Friday. NEMA charger installed today, so she's resting comfortably now :) Looking forward to my first work commute tmrw

Hi all, I'm from a country town in Australia called Temora, famous for it's Aviation Museum as well as agriculture industry. I just joined this forum. Love Tesla. I'm saving up for Tesla X, and hopefully by the time it's available in Australia I'm hoping my videography business has taken off...

Good morning! Finally picking up my Tesla today in Orlando! If you're also into motorcycles or helping deaf babies please see DrSign.com.

Hi all, Got my CPO (#47xxx) S85 last month. Great experience. I live on the Southern Oregon Coast and bought the car out of Seattle. My wife and I took the train up from Eugene and drove it home the next day. I have a Leaf so am familiar with EV's but am still on cloud eleven (smirk) with...

Hello. Nice to see you. I am Cherry, from China. Best wishes!

Hi everyone, I thought I would stop by and introduce myself. I put in my order for a silver p90d last week and it just switched over to confirmed and in the production queue. Can't wait until December! Cheers, Ken

Just took delivery of the Model S on Wednesday! Third day of driving bliss! Getting used to the car and all it's features. Amazing driving experience when you go past the "test drive" environment. Wanted to ask a bunch of questions to in reference to new Tesla owners (things to get, heard...

Hello all, my name is Alan Brown. I love to modify cars and install amazing audio systems.

Greetings! I just wanted to stop in and say hello, as I burn time waiting for the delivery of my 2015 Model S 85D. I had the opportunity to drive a P85+ last year when I was back visiting Hawaii, and immediately fell in love with it. Almost exactly 365 days later, and I've now got about 1 to 2...

Hi Everyone, I finally rec'd my new Model S 90D last Saturday Oct. 3, 2015. I picked it up in Palm Springs, CA so I could also try out the Supercharger station in Cabazon, CA on my way home. I couldn't be happier. Back in 2008, I got bit by the electric car bug. First, I converted a 1995 Geo...

Hi, the Volt is not nearly as great as a Tesla but it is a start. If the Model S is too big for you a Volt may be just right while you wait for the Model 3. I would urge everyone to promote EV's in general! I take my Volt to local cars and coffee events. I've got a friend who has a Tesla and...

OK, I had seen the videos and thought I knew what to expect. One evening we spotted a silver P85D in a restaurant parking lot and took a guess at which of the couples eating outside owned it. I asked if the Tesla was theirs and they said yes. We talked for a while and the owner ended up...

The car: P90D with luda mode, auto pilot and all options except winter package. Carbon fiber trim and wing. 21" wheels. The owners: My wife and I run an app agency (iPhone/Android) in Dallas. I've always loved fast cars. I've had a z06, modded vette, modded s2000 and modded z28. Also a lifted...

Got my Midnight Silver 70, Pano roof, Multipattern seats, Premium lighting, Ultra high fidelity sound and Auto pilot, 5 days ago and I tell you I could not be happier (I guess unless I had the 85D, P85D or P90D). I have found all types of reasons to go for drive. The amount of info on this site...

I'm a long time Tesla fan and TMC stalker :). I signed up for TMC last month, test drove last week, and confirmed my order yesterday! I read a bunch of threads to get to the choice that suits me, but like many have said... it was the test drive that solidified it. Now the waiting begins...

Greetings. I'm NightWolf (no relation to the Mortal Kombat character). I live in the Tampa area and I'm a HUGE Tesla fan and view them as the future of cars. My dream job would be to have some position working for Tesla (almost doesn't matter what). Well, that's me in a nutshell :)

Short version: I'm a lifelong, died-in-the-wool petrolhead who has finally found salvation through amperage. I count the days until the M3 is revealed and pre-orders start, and the wait to actually get one will surely be agonizing. In the meantime I plan to spend a lot of time here catching up...

I purchased Hasselboxter's P85 ( link ) over the weekend, drove it back to Middle TN. Got my windows tinted today and loving the car so far. :)

I'm a geek. I've worked in technology forever. I have had all kinds of computers and gadgets from my childhood to adulthood. I'm also into cars and own two supercharged vehicles. It's a shame the drag strip closed, but what can you do? Naturally, a Tesla being what it is .... it's a given I'm...

Hey folks, I'm waiting on my P90D, due in early October. All the options except for rear-seats and cold-weather package. I've been researching paint correction, paint protection and tints. Anyone have any idea if paint correction is really worth it on a brand new factory Tesla?

Hi everyone. Ordered an 85D about a month ago and just got confirmation of delivery next week. I've been lurking here for a while and decided now was a good time to post and introduce myself. Looking forward to getting on the EV bandwagon!

Hello everyone, My name is Carl. I am very enthusiastic about communicating without Tesla members on this forum. I purchased a Tesla a few years ago, and the car still runs as good as new today. I own a Model S which is my daily driver. Carl.

Hi. Newbie here excited about the x question - how do I create a signature on my posts. Thanks

Been lurking for a while, now it's time to post because my Sig X (#1XX) is finally at the ordered stage! Has been entered into the Model X Tracker site. It's been a looooong time waiting, just passed the 3-year anniversary. Incredible to think we will actually be driving through the snow this...

Hi! I was just gifted my dream car of a Late 2013 Tesla P85+ White with black interior from my darling husband. I have lusted after these cars since they came out and I am beyond thrilled and excited to finally own my dream car! :love: Hoping to learn everything I can from this forum and pick...

Just started the process but its what i wanted and a great price only 17k miles and new tires.

Greetings from Utah. I just signed the papers and am now playing the waiting game for my Model S 70D. This will replace my '02 Honda Civic that has 190,000 miles on it, which I purchased used back in 2006 when it had 80,000 miles on it. I'm planning on leasing this car for three years and then...

Yep. I've been a sports car guy my entire life. Nothing is better than a large displacement engine and a manual transmission. It was time to move past my 911 and I was trying to decide between the new Z06, an M5 or even a GT-R. Then I decided to test drive the Tesla..... I'm not "green"...

Hi I've just put my deposit on a fully loaded 70D with a December delivery date :biggrin: cant wait my brother also ended up putting down a deposit as well so we're in this ride together :scared: ive started to look at accessories and I'm getting annoyed at the cost of them compared to in the...

Found this forum a few weeks ago and have read many threads. I'm not currently in a position to purchase (two teenagers in the house) but have a three year plan to own my dream car. Just wanted to see if there were any active duty military members who have found a way to own a MS? I've been in...

Hello, my name is Steve and I'm the proud new owner of a Tesla Model S 85D. I test drove my first Tesla at the Houston Galleria showroom and knew I had to have one before I'd gone even a quarter mile. What an awesome car! My previous car was a certified pre-owned 2011 Mercedes E350 Bluetec...

...just introducing myself from Southern California, down in the Carlsbad/La Costa area. In recent years, I've owned 2 Lexus RX (SUV) hybrids beginning the month they were introduced back in 2005, along with a couple German toys -- a 335i and presently an SLK. As much as I have enjoyed Lexus...

I was all prepared to buy a new 70D. I have about $30,000 saved to put down & was ready to pull the trigger when they announced the "Luda"...well I put everything on hold to reconsider my purchase. I'm retired & own my home, but I will receive a huge bump in my retirement next July, about $1,500...

Hi all. Just ordered my Tesla in Ontario for a mid November delivery. Can't wait. I've been reading these forums for a while now. Just thought I'd post a bit in the anticipation to take that first drive.

Hi all, long time observer, first time poster... I have been hanging around here for a bit. Content is great, and members are more active than Tesla's own forums. Fan of Tesla since day one, I followed the Roadster's alpha, beta and pre-production days on EV-World back then. And in 2008, while...

As an introduction on me, I drive a P85 that my company took delivery in March of 2014. It's a company car that we share around, so I'm not the exclusive driver (though I'm stingy and probably drive it more than my fair share). We loaded it up with everything but the rear facing seats. I love...

Hi fellas, Back in 2010 I noticed some interesting stock picks by major investors that intrigue me. This led to researching why. After doing some online research and buying numerous books I discovered why: gas prices will go up... tremendously. The automobile industry was one of the obvious...

Hi friends, I've purchased my 85 model last Tuesday Aug 11 with a projected delivery date in early October. This is going to be an incredibly long two months since I think about this car pretty much every day! Here are the options I went with, along with general rationale: 85 - I opted for...

Hi, we just ordered a 90D (with a number of options) and received our VIN build number yesterday with a late August delivery. That said, we live between Cordes Jct and Prescott known as Bensch Ranch, AZ. We own the Cordes Jct Motel, RV Park and 50s Diner Backseat Bar adjacent to the Shell...

Hi, I just finished reading the Elon Musk book by Ashlee Vance. Now I'm pumped about Tesla! Will probably have to save up some dough before I can buy. We recently moved to the Portland OR area from Olympia WA, and lucky enough to have a store about 14 miles away in the Washington Square mall. I...

Just a friendly note to say "hi" to my fellow Tesla fans (fanatics?) around the world. My wife and I took delivery of our stunning new Model S 70D a couple of weeks ago, and we're still in the honeymoon phase (with the car, of course).

We live in Carlsbad, Ca.; we're retired. Phil, an electrical engineer(once one always...). I worked as a Psychologist. Interested in books, stock market, graphic arts. Excited about our new purchase. Just over a week since we gave down payment Now just waiting for delivery. Hope to meet...

I hope I'm not seen as an interloper here. I'm serious about buying a Model S, but it's going to take me another year to save up my money. I live in Eastern Clark County, WA near the mouth of the Columbia Gorge. I joke that I can see Oregon from my window. :biggrin: I currently drive a...

Good day, For the past eight years one of our rides has been a 2007 Zenn Neighborhood Electric Vehicle. As of today we have a VIN, and we assume that soon we'll have our Dark Metallic Blue 70D with pano roof and a light next-gen interior. Looking forward to breaking the 35 MPH barrier in our...

We've had out 70D about a month, so now that we are not spending all of our free time driving for no particular reason, this is my first post. Models S #92825 - 70D, pano roof, tech, next gen seats, white & tan. Anxiously waiting for the "3" so we can buy a second Tesla.

Hello everyone, I'm from the old continent, in the country of frog eaters ! I love cars, the ones that drink petrol, make a lot of noise and makes people smile. Even though it doesn't make any noise or breath petrol like a big crate should it makes people smile. It's a special car. It's...

A year and a half ago, my colleagues and I talked about Teslas and I thought, way out of my league! Almost after Mother's Day last year, the husband and I joked about getting a Tesla and I thought, no way in the world! That weekend, he went for a test drive on Sat morning without telling me...

looking forward to meeting all of you.
