When Tesla updated their supercharger map for 2020, they added a new location in the mountains of San Diego in Santa Ysabel, CA. Interesting location choice. Thought i'd create the thread so people could be on the lookout for a permit.

Hello,
Anyone here has experience driving from LA to San Diego with a M3 Standard Range Plus (SR+)? What was your experience? Was the actual range enough for the long commute? Should I charge to 100% before I head out or refrain from using AP and heater/air conditioning?
I recently got my SR+...

Hey everyone -
I tried doing some research but I couldn't find anything good. Does anyone have a company they can recommend for tinting a model X? Thank you so much!
This is a Model S that we had in our shop recently. We wrapped this vehicle in Xpel Stealth paint protection film.
As you can see, the Xpel Stealth takes the color from glossy to satin/matte.
A full body custom wrap is required in order to get the entire vehicle "frozen". In order to ensure a...
