As with most MS owners I have some pretty very funny stories to tell about people’s reactions to seeing the Model S for the first time.
I think my best story is when I was about to leave a mall parking lot.
My 4 year was getting into the car, I was standing on grass at the back of my MS getting my 1.5 year old out of the stroller with the trunk open and along comes a couple.
“What kind of car is that?”
“It’s a Tesla.”
The wife frowns and says “who makes it?”
I responded and we chatted a little while they peered in through the trunk.
So far I have not told them it is electric and I say to the husband “go over an open up the hood”, you’ll be impressed with what’s inside.
I pop the hood with the remote while I am still getting my kid out of the stroller and I chat with the wife a little more. The husband opens the hood and a big smile appears, he looks at me and says “Oh, it’s a rear engine car!”
My response was “ you were just over here looking in the trunk”
This was the best part, he looked under the hood and back to me and did a double take, the expression on his face was like “What the ???”
That is one of my favorite tales about my Model S does anyone else have other stories to make us owners smile?
