This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing Gen 1 Tesla HPWC (not working). Please add to the discussion here.

Risk here is 'maybe' an unpopular take so pls remember it's just an opinion... Driving a Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE for a couple days and realizing that although I mildly dislike having soooo many buttons my big takeaway is that the UI is actually much friendlier than my Model Y :oops: I realized...

Odd - today the FSD portion of my center screen is frozen. Haven’t seen this before and everything else is working ok, although obv I can’t engage cruise control or FSD. Anyone seen this happen before?

On Christmas eve, my Y updated to 2021.44.25.6 enabling FSD...Yay right? Not quite... Despite moderate temps the last couple days I keep getting the warning "Regenerative braking temporarily reduced". Can't say I notice much actual change but if it's not a bug then it's pretty dangerous to...

FW version: 2019.32.10.2 1. Lane departure warning no longer works 2. Driver door opening on approach no longer works Stuff like this has happened before with FW updates and they usually get fixed in subsequent 'bug updates'. Just curious if anyone else has experienced these two? (2018 Model...

Arnold Schwarzenegger Sent Activist Greta Thunberg an Electric Car Quite appropriate I'd say :)

Roadster still running beautifully after 8 years went in for annual service last week. Took her home after a few days (why did it take 3 days?) and on plugging in I she wouldn't charge just giving me a message to "Connect Charge Cable". Back to Tesla the next morning as range was getting low...

Original with box and all fittings. Used only twice, excellent condition. Suitable for Model S panoramic/sunroof. Compatible with first and second gen pano roof mounts Same as this one but original Whispbar S37 branding -> Model S Roof Rack - Panoramic Roof $275 plus shipping (or collect...

Anyone got a recommendation for a phone holder? (For Roadster 2.5 w/ Alpine) These days I find myself using my iPhone for maps/directions as the Alpine SW is pretty out of date; I'm looking for a phone holder that looks good but doesn't take up space from the passenger foot well.

We removed a dying tree from alongside the garage so I installed blinds on the garage windows to keep the temperatures down in the summer. Ever since then when parking the car in the garage it "sees" a ghost standing behind the right rear...Curious, but it can only be the blinds/light that is...

Don't beat me up.....Since moving north from FL I've experienced some very different weather and road conditions and I'm becoming increasingly convinced that FSD is perhaps never going to be a reality for most of us. Road markings are critically important to FSD and I'm discovering that in the...

Gorgeous weather this morning, 75F sunny with slight wind, so took the top off and headed out from home. Less than 1/2 mile from the house, doing about 40mph, and a deer jumped out of the forest right in front of me; I braked sharply and slowed to about 25mph as the deer ran off and I breathed...

Coming home after midnight last night (on a trip I've done many times before and usually make it home with about 10miles to spare) and about 5 miles from home I'm showing 19 miles of ideal range...Out of nowhere I hit an area of very cold fog and then shortly afterwards I get a message saying...

Mods do a great job of making sure never TMC has trolls but {Ahem} should any appear, here's an short article from Psychology Today worth reading and sound advice for all of us online: Internet Trolls Are Narcissists, Psychopaths, And Sadists P.S. Thanks to Leilani Munter for spotting the...

https://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21726071-it-had-good-run-end-sight-machine-changed-world-death Great article, an easy read while reaffirming some simple facts....

Maybe just me but I seem to be experiencing a lot more folks asking me about the Roadster, especially since Model 3 started to feature more prominently in the news and particularly in the last 2 weeks. Lots of people asking "Is that a Tesla?" and being very complimentary, kinda takes me back a...

Picked up a set of Apple AirPods last week and was delighted to discover I could make calls from the Roadster (even with no top on the car!) and have folks clearly understand me. Earlier this week I even spoke to another club member while I was doing ~70mph down the I-75 with no top.... These...

The car park and area around Mote Marine Lab's Eco Discovery Center in Key West belongs to the city and is about to start redevelopment; as a result of this Mote has been asked to remove the Tesla destination charger and the Clipper Creek charger we have there. It is expected that the two units...

Some local activity required please folks. The number of working Chargepoints in the West parking lot at UTC Mall (Sarasota/I-75) has been declining month by month. I was there last night and saw folks scrambling to get a hook-up; 3 of the 4 machines had problems with two of them out...

This Saturday at Mote Marine Lab, we're holding our 5th annual drive electric expo day. Rumor has it that locals will see our intrepid Larry Chanin on SNNTV tonight at 5.00pm and 6.00pm news slots, Chris Sharek and I had bit parts on 10News, Fox13 and ABC7 in the Tampa Bay area. Oh and Mote...

Lights changed to green, truck in front of me starts moving, brakes suddenly due to a pedestrian, my Roadster meets his tow hitch......:crying: Slow speed collision (maybe 5-7mph?) but carbon fiber vs steel isn't a fair fight. Nice hitch shaped hole in my car now but it's my own fault...

Was speaking to an authorized body shop (Roadster is in for minor repair) and they'd already had in their first Model X to work on. The owner tried to reverse out of their garage with the trunk fully open....Model X is high, it didn't end well....Ouch. (For obvious reasons I'm not going to...

Merry Christmas to all our TMC friends! To those of you of a slightly different religion I wish a belated Happy Hanukkah! And I note it's the Prophet Mohammed's birthday today also! Sounds like we all have reason to celebrate. :smile: To those of you who are committed atheists - enjoy the...

Like many others I got a call about the Roadster 3.0 battery upgrade....nice chat and I thanked them for continuing to support the Roadster. The Tesla representative did tell me that they want to continue supporting their earliest and most loyal customers so I suggested CF taillights (either...

Tesla makes it into the news in all sorts of ways these days..... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-09-21/sex-reassignment-is-latest-company-benefit-in-push-for-equality

Another day and more news. It appears from the design studio that 3rd row seats are now standard:

OK, didn't see this yesterday and I don't recall it being mentioned before but this makes the X frunk sound much bigger than most of us expected: I doubt I can get one golf bag in my S frunk, never mind two.

So went to look at configuration options again this morning and two new renderings (I don't think they are photos) showed up:

Got invited to configure tonight and I don't recall a conversation saying that the range had changed since the 240 miles quoted in the first few design studios shots that were posted. This is what I see now:

Following a pretty good first season Formula E has attracted new teams and drivers for the upcoming season. Found this interesting video on the various sounds the cars produce through their various motors and gearboxes: These cars are looking pretty cool IMO: Official website for the series...

Just curious how many of these went out and whether we're getting riled up over what might (or might not) have been a small mistake. Vote away!

TMC generally seems to work fine on the Windows 10 browser (Edge) but for whatever reason it's impossible to insert pictures in a post, the browser will only attach them at the end of a post. Also some of the smileys work and some not.

New York Times - The Week Ahead: Tesla Motors Earnings (My bold) Decide for yourself whether that's meaningful. My humble opinion is still that Founders will be delivered in September; possibly the first handful of Sigs.

Where's Curt? :wink:

Just posting this so that someone may find it if the same bug pops up again.... Had my annual service done on Wednesday and went to collect the car on Thursday. Service included swapping out for a new 12v but when I went to drive home I noticed that the Alpine NAV-10 didn't power up at all...

Experiencing an odd charging behavior tonight. I was out today, did a top up charge with range around 50mi left just to add about 40mi and arrived home with ~70mi; plugged in as usual this afternoon and realized a little while ago that the car was still charging....it's set to "Standard" but...

http://www.amazon.com/oc/echo/ I received my Amazon Echo last Saturday and after 30 minutes playing with it the big discussion started - where to locate the thing? My wife wanted it in the kitchen, I wanted it in my office, my daughter wanted it in her room....tough problem because everyone...

Received an email on this last night: http://www.chargepoint.com/home/ Looks pretty neat.

Hi Floridians, I'm posting because there's a few folks who pop in and out here without necessarily seeing everything else going on... After 3 years doing this job, I'm taking an extended break from TMC and handing in my moderator badge. Florida is one of those corners of my moderating...

Well folks, As the Germans say “Alles hat ein Ende, nur die Wurst hat zwei” but it's probably funnier in German than in English. After 3 years of duty it’s time for me to take off my moderator badge and relinquish the magic powers. I’m taking a looooong break although I might pop in from...

Robert.Boston, TMC member and moderator will be in Sarasota on March 21st singing with "Mastersingers USA". Robert was coy about posting it but it looks like a great concert to me and I figured he couldn't stop me putting up the event. :smile: Tickets at the door or online here. Many of you...

Yeah, I don't recall ever seeing this one before but it has the CF blades in the wheels and tell-tale door handle configuration: Link: Bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-02-05

Well I love soccer but I'm not, and never will be, a 'mom'....isn't it about time everyone stopped using this outdated cliche?

Wanted to make sure you're all aware of this: If you don't know how to subscribe specifically to the Florida forum then go to the main forum page and look for this: Post questions to me here or to doug back on the site feedback thread.

Interesting now that snowbirds are starting to appear we're seeing out of state Model Ss. I'm wondering whether they're driving down or having their cars shipped? In any case I've seen Maine, New York, New Jersey and Ontario(!) this past week. Any others?

Possibly the first electric boat that actually looks cool... http://www.quadrofoil.com Huffington post.com/2014/11/28/quadrofoil-boat-personal-watercraft:
