Thanks Guys!...can't wait until the snows get on later today to get the first "Highway" drive in! :biggrin::biggrin:
Just a note...when the transport driver unloaded my veh, it had obviously been cold for (I'd guess) about a week...it was about 25F ambient temp...the regen was not working and the pac charge level was about 50%.
I charged last night at 40 amps starting at 9pm...when I unplugged this morning, the regen was working well.
I think as I probably won't use up much charge today because of the weather, I'll just use the 110v tonight to verify that the 110v will keep the pac warm enough to keep the regen working.
Cheers!

Great to hear Jaff! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts after driving it. If you're like me, you'll find driving it is so much fun it's hard to find time to write about it

Jason, I feel the same (now that I have about 250 electric kms under my belt) as I did after my test drive in Sept...the only thing I can say is that "there are no words" to describe the feeling you get while driving this car!...simply amazing...a permanent high! :biggrin: ...it is really a "pinch me" moment when you open the garage & stare at it first thing in the morning...(you want to play hooky all day & just drive around (guilt free) :biggrin::biggrin:
Standard conversation is ..."What is that?"
"It's a Tesla."
"Who makes it?"
Even from the guys who work at car dealerships as sales reps & mechanics...hardly anyone around here knows anything about, or has even heard of TM...:tongue:

It's here! What an amazing car. I've already driven 80 miles, given 6 drives and have probably 10 people tell me it's a 'cool car' and I've only had it since noon. Ferris Bueller was right: "It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up"
