I’ve opted to buy a used model X. I’ll be buying it from a private party that is far enough away that I’ll likely need to charge on the trip home. Can anyone shed some light on how I can charge at a Tesla charging station immediately after a purchase?
How does the account setup tie in to vehicle registration?
A few people have been burned by this. See if the seller would be willing to leave his credit card on the account until you get home with the understanding that you will reimburse him (or even pay up front) for any charging fees accrued.
It takes a few days for the account info to transfer over and you may find yourself stuck while traveling home. Another option is to look and see if there are any level 2 chargers you can make use of along the way. It will take longer to charge but you will be able to make it home.
