A couple pics to show all the info it displays. How about a picture of the odometer? I don't know where the odometer is in the Roadster!

Tesla Motors had another historic moment late last week. The EPA's latest government fuel economy report says the electric startup gets a 2008 Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) rating of 244 mpg, according to Automotive News. The federal CAFE standard for cars is 27.5 mpg. Tesla earlier had said a Tesla Roadster ran for 245 miles on the combined EPA cycle on a single charge: 235 on the EPA highway cycle, 255 on the EPA city cycle, according to a press release on the corporate Web site.

Please post a picture of the cupholder, showing its location. Have a cup in it to make it obvious to dummies like me.
This should obviously be a low priority, long after sequences showing proper entry and exit technique, with and without a skirt.
I'm just curious.
Enjoy that beautiful car! | |

(There is none, thank goodness.)
Martin, can I use your story as an illustration on why color management is important? :-)
