I took my car for it’s first inspection at my neighborhood Valvoline Oil Change location. I was immediately surrounded by 4 young gearheads with rapid-fire questions. They seemed to know a lot about the things they were most interested in.
How fast have you driven this car? 90
How fast will it go? About 145
Will it beat a Hellcat? Not mine but a performance model will
What is your 0-60? About 5 seconds
What is the one that can beat 2 seconds? Model S Raven
Do you the Insane Mode? No. Ludicrous? No
Do you have a charger at home? Yes
Are there enough chargers away from home? Yes with Tesla Superchargers
Can I open your Frunk? Sure
How about the Trunk? Sure
Cool car man! Thanks
Do you drive it - It looks brand new? I take good care of it.
Then when it came time to enter the car in their system and they could not find Tesla:
Who makes Tesla? Tesla
It must be foreign then? No made in California
It must be new then? Tesla has been around for years, this model was new in 2017.
I guess we need to update our software? Yes you do
I have done another Tesla but cannot remember how I entered it!
I will have to enter Other and type it in! OK.
Me: Will the DMV info be correct? Yes
We will have it updated next time! OK
I felt sorry for the other car owners in the other bays. These guys were all around my car for a good 15-20 minutes!
