No, I'm not.Thanks for sharing about your issues. Just curious. Are you considering upgrading? If so to what? Raven?
I love driving my Tesla, but I DON'T love sitting for a third of my road time at a supercharger waiting for the emasculated charge rate to put enough juice in the battery for the next leg of the trip.
The newer versions of the S, with the longer range and batteries not enfeebled by software updates, are tempting.
But MY car, when I bought it, supercharged in a bit more than half the time it takes now. Tesla intentionally degraded the charge rate, and intentionally did not, and still will not, provide any sort of technical explanation or data for it. All they've ever said, to my knowledge, is basically that my battery will degrade faster without the reduced charge rate.
So as a result I don't trust Tesla not to screw up more cars. Who's to say they won't wind up doing the same thing to new cars in the next year or two or three? If they find a problem that they can avoid repairing by a software update, they're more likely to take that path again, now that it apparently has worked the first few times they've tried it. For THAT reason, I will not purchase another Tesla, nor will I recommend them to others.
