I thought about how much had to be done, but wondered about all of the other rubber and plastic pieces exposed to the heat that might not be visible. Surely the temperature has an effect on the chemistry / lifespan / durability of the materials. I would also suspect that the battery coolant fluid would have to be changed as it was surely pumping at full tilt through the heat of the fire to try to keep the pack cooled. Although the radiator was at the front of the car probably heating rather than cooling the fluid.

If anyone is around next Wednesday, June 19, 2013 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, MIT Enterprise Forum is having a seminar on "Alternative Fuels: The Future of Transportation":
MIT Enterprise Forum Texas - Meeting/Event Information

It sounds like they hoped to have a Model S there, but I can't make it. If you are interested in attending, please drop me a line.

Any suggestions on someone in town to install my Alloygators rim protectors?

I may be able to stop by since it's near my office.

Cool. FYI, they will provide tickets for people driving Teslas--just send me your name and tell the guy when you are parking. I wish I could attend, it sounds like it will be an interesting discussion.

Ha! It's a joke how frequently my color choice changes. I have been agonizing over the colors since I saw your beautiful car. I've always been attracted to the green. I finally decided and was content on green today...until a few hours ago my wife thinks I should get silver! Ugh! Back to square 1. I know it'll be beautiful no matter which color I get, but its like picking a girl out of a room of supermodels. About as difficult as deciding when to take profits on TSLA stock. I have a few more days before my order goes to the factory.
Thanks again for giving us the time to see your car. Very nice of you!

Thanks Skintrade! Not sure. They used to do home delivery. It sounded like it was a strange experience, however they(Texas) started "allowing" us to pick up at the Service Center, is my understanding. Call your DS and ask. What package did you get? Color? Congrats, can't wait to see you on the road

From your photo and mine, I believe that is my car behind yours! They have met before we have!

I am worried that they may be too fragile. I am thinking that the 19 in are more practical, but I had to have 21 in wheels to get the 85P+. Thanks for the compliment.
