    Hello from Los Angeles

    Hi there! I'm excited to be joining many others tonight waiting for the Model 3 pre-orders on the west coast and finally become a part of the Tesla community. I've been wanting an electric car for a long time but any with enough range for my commute have always been beyond what I could afford so...

    Hello from Los Angeles

    Hi, We took delivery of our P90D in October last year. Prior to that our "eco" car was a Prius. It was frustrating to be rudely passed and even driven off the road by faster aggressive drivers common in Los Angeles. We don't have that problem any more! However when my wife was driving it for the...

    Happy Opti-coat customer in Los Angeles

    My Signature Model S had a Tesla-applied paint armor which I never really liked. It only covered half the hood, and dirt showed at the margins. The armor bunched at the mirrors. After three years, it is not as clear as it was before. For our new 90D, we decided to go with Opti-Coat Pro...

    Road-trip updates: SF to LA and back, on electricity. And Autopilot!

    Hey all! After an entertaining discussion on whether I should fly or drive for this trip (To fly or not to fly. Another SF-LA trip thread. Now with Autopilot!), I ended up deciding to drive.

    Los Angeles - Las Vegas trip with Superchargers

    Given the distance, I could easily make it just with one stop at Barstow Supercharger, and refill at Last Vegas Supercharger for the way back, skipping the Rancho Cucamonga and Primm Superchargers, but I am guessing Barstow is probably overcrowded and the other two not so much. Anyone with...
