Just in regard to the reply you received from Tesla (the two questions quoted above). I would have immediately replied to them in order to remind them of good manners and that the customer is always right (even when they may be wrong - not suggesting that you are wrong, btw). This is a classic example of modern "corporate speak" and I have had to rebuke (sounds messianic doesn't it?) one Tesla service employee about abrupt pejorative questions in reply to customers queries. In short, there are better and more diplomatic ways to have answered your question and that should have been the case. All customers reading this should always insist on proper answers to questions. It is rude and somewhat ignorant to answer a question with a question. Perhaps the younger retailing generation needs a reminder of this, but when you do remind them, do so with courtesy and FIRMNESS!
Hi garyjac,
I wanted to post the whole email but didn't because it has that "For intended recipient only" thingy on the bottom and I've been burnt on other forums quoting emails that didn't have the caveat on the bottom.
I'm a 198cm, 47 year old who isn't backwards in going forwards but I was left wondering how this particular Tesla person got his job. I am sure he wasn't interviewed by Mr Musk and he certainly didn't purvey what I thought should be, in my opinion, the stereotypical senior Tesla manager.
Is it just me or do others get sick of being called "mate" all the time from "millennials" who have forgotten how to properly address people/customers, young or old?
I've visited Denmark several times in the early days of the RAC Electric Highway. The trip was done via Bunbury RAC charger. Yes, it is a longer drive but I enjoy driving this car so much and the route through the forest from Manjimup to Denmark is so nice that I don't mind the extra time and kms. "The journey is the destination" in the Model S!
The lack of a service centre and Supercharger don't worry one bit.
It will happen one day. Perhaps by the time my Model 3 is delivered.
I agree JFK, Perth born and bred and love down south. Lived in Karratha for 12 years and purposely took the scenic tree route from Perth to Denmark just to see the trees. Not really any proper trees in the north west.
I'm a driver too and prefer the scenic, perhaps longer route, however, I want the choice and lots of options and really don't think it would add too much to the "Australia rollout" of Superchargers to include the West concurrently with the East. It can hardly be called Tesla Australia if it's still east coast centric a couple of years after the MS arrived. Just give me some hope and show an updated SC rollout map that shows WA
