Wow. You are very Lucky! Lots of QA issues for some of us. Enjoy it! Can't wait to see all these mods...
I have supercharged 2 times. The first time it started at 117kw and stayed above 100kw I believe past 200 miles. I don't remember for sure where it dropped below 100kw but I thought it was about 220 miles. The temperature was in the 40's. The second time the temp. was about 80 and I started with about 45 miles of range and it charged to begin with at 117kw and then dropped to between 80 and 90kw after about 15 min. I don't remember the mileage. I think the battery was getting hot because it would fluctuate from between 80 and 90kw up to about 220 miles and then started to taper. I was in a restaurant and was checking it periodically on my iPhone. It definitely charges way faster than my S85D did.
If you are really taking 100kw at 200 miles that would be very significant. My 85 seems to get to about 80 miles before I drop down below 100kw. Anyway, I hope your memory is correct and thanks for the info
New video will be up tomorrow morning!
I think a lot of the QA issues might have disappeared with the factory shut down. I talked to several others that took delivery, some in other states, and no one has had any issues. I guess time will tell. Yes, I have a crazy list of mods.
Thanks Erik
Our S 100D was really in excellent condition. The only minor issues was a very small misalignment by one of the wheelwells (fixed by Tesla before delivery) and a connector that didn't fully engage for the passenger lumbar support.
The misalignment was minor - and may have been with tolerance, but the service center didn't object to doing that adjustment.
And it's possible the connector was making a good enough connection to work during QA testing - and was dislodged after the car left the factory.
Compared to other cars I've purchased, Tesla's manufacturing seems to be work extremely well now.

Bob, was your paint solid Black? i wanted to know the condition. Scratches are very visible on that black - if the prep was not done right. Did you have surface imperfections like a small indentation in the body on some parts [i.e. like a small crater]. You might want to check with a light.

Exactly the reason why we also bought the 100D... increased range. I've already had my thrill of fast launches. Don't need it in a car.

Oh sure. Check with a light to find imperfections you didn't notice with your naked eye. There's a way to increase your happiness for sure.

I. have no idea. Nor do I know what "Battey Range Upgrade .... Included" means. Already show 100kWh as a separate charge?
I think we just figured out why some people are certain Tesla can't deliver a good car. (yes, there are some with substantial problems)
I believe they call any large pack car a battery range upgrade. The 60/75 being the base battery size.

I have always subscribed to the fact that only people with problems will make posts on forums. It may seem like the majority of people have problems but the problems are just the majority of the topics.
