Cinergi's Model S

[jcstp]

the model S indeed got attention as soon as it got offloaded!
Wonder how many will be talking about it and search the teslamotors website ot go to the natick mall (if i understoud correctly)
how many sales?

i am curious what that truckdriver thought when driving out the tesla! anyhow, he could handle it quite well!

If this is any indication of things to come, I'm going to have to add 5-10 minutes to any trip I make, to answer parking lot questions. I thought I got asked a lot of questions when I drive my wife's Volt, but that's nothing compared to the attention the Tesla is going to draw.

When Dadaleus gave me a ride a few weeks ago, we were getting thumbs up while waiting for the signal to change by the twenty-something year olds at the pizza place, who were eating on the patio. I'm guessing this will be common place.

Thanks everyone! I'm gonna try something here... mount the camera in the car and try to live stream it. Let's see what happens :smile:

My guess is the camera will fall over. (like in Konstantin's video)

The suction cup mount I have won't stay affixed to the window for some reason (I have on problem on other surfaces). Back to the drawing board :smile:

Beautiful car!

Is that the NEMA 14-50 plug or is there an adapter on the UMC featured in one of your charging pictures?

The Model S UMC is adapter-based, so what you see on there is the 14-50 adapter. I'll take some video and go through all that stuff as part of this thread.

Identical config to mine except you went silver for the wheels it looks like. Nice going!

Good to see VINs in the 200s!

Have fun. My advice: stay away from the curbs. After the Roadster it took nailing three wheels for me to learn my lesson.

I thought they were planning to color match UMCs to the car.
But, even though you got a sig red car, your UMC looks silver...
