Interesting: My original intent was to get 60KwH battery, which I did and Tesla did originally say could be UPGRADED to 85. That article was Dec 2013. We took delivery of our Tesla April 2013. I called 6 months ago and they said NO upgrade then called again yesterday and they said it is not as simple as just swapping battery, had to perform other mods. NOW, this could just be Tesla NOT wanting to deal with this since so many CPO 85 are out there and now the D models, etc. That's why I am looking to trade up somehow.
