Not so random, at Norristown Service Center getting my Titanium Plate put in! Very cramped but they should be moving to a big new SC in Devon (old Devon Toyota) at the end of this month.

OT: did you call them to get the plate installed? How long did it take?
Yup... there are getting to be more of us around here. I probably see one 1-2 times/week now. Seeing more than one in a single day has happened several times in hte last couple of months.
Whereabouts in NoVA, may I ask?

I called them the day the news came out. They put me on the list and called me pretty much a day or two later to schedule. As I sit here in the SC, I heard at least 10 people call to inquire about it and schedule their install.
these sightings were all between Fair Oaks hospital and the Herndon area - up and down the Ffx County Parkway and around.. And to keep this relevant to the thread, saw another one in the Fairfax Town Center at lunch today - the guy had a nice Tesla jacket on too coming out of the Baja Fresh
Wow, here's a sighting that I thought would not happen for a long time yet: A work colleague of mine spotted this white MS parked at the parking lot of a local mall. Here, in the middle of Finland, in my town! There are only 14 Teslas total in Finland, including the several demo cars, so the chance that one of the non-demo cars happens to be in my town, and my work colleague happening to be there at the same time, had to be pretty slim!
Since there are no public chargers within 150km of my town, I think it is reasonably likely that the owner actually lives here. Wow, at least two Teslas (after I get mine) in my town!
(I blacked out the registration plate just in case.. That's my work colleague's car with the door open, proof that the image was actually taken by him :smile.

Heh, I wondered if someone would spot/comment on that. :smile: Sure we do, along with many other big American retail franchises.

This multi-coat red S85 beauty was parked on my street the other day. Something tells me he or she is quite happy with their purchase.
Missed connection:
Me: traveling east on Gandy Blvd at 8:05am Friday morning in my beautiful blue MS.
You: traveling west in a beautiful gray MS.
We passed each other just east of 4th St. I saw you too late to even flash my lights.

Nice! Maybe you can get Alison Brie and Jimmy Kimmel to read this.

Taken from my office window.
Here in Calgary there are less than 20 Teslas including roadsters according to a service rep. This is in a city where there are around 765,000 registered vehicles. The city is also geographically fairly large - around 745 sq km/463 sq mi. Despite this, of the three Teslas I've seen in Calgary, I've seen all three in this same location, two were parked at different times within this frame. If you include my car which is parked below the building that is 4 within the same small area. Granted I spend more time looking out this window than any other area but I still think this must be the Tesla Apex for the city.

seriously? The white car driving through the intersection is a model S. I guess it's a bit small.@gpetti
Where is the Model S?
Zapped
Model S - PURE EV
I had to use a picture viewer to see the Model S off to the right side; couldn't scroll the width of the photo in my browser.
I sure hope that was a super early model, those body panel gaps are terrible to behold.
