    Supercharger - Natalia, TX

    Absolutely perfect location for us. We have family in Devine and that makes it super easy now when traveling from the Houston area. We have a S 75D with only a 230 mile range. No more worrying about getting there with a low charge now.

    2021 Model S Plaid/LR Fire

    The Texas fire- The last report I heard about mentioned that home security cameras caught both gentlemen entering the front seats of the Model S before driving off. What happened after that is still under investigation.

    How many will look into the F-150 Lightning?

    For those considering the Lightning, I wouldn't count on the federal tax rebates still being around. Ford only has 75K or so of those left. The MachE will have been out for more than a full year by the time the truck is out. That is unless they bump the limit to over 200K.

    That pry bar is obviously photoshopped into the scene. :)

    3D Maxpider Kagu mat for Refresh MS - need volunteer for scanning

    We have a Dec 2016 Model S and they fit fine. I was afraid I might have to trim a little around the rear console but it fit perfect. There is a almost imperceptible "transmission type hump" in the passenger footwell. If I had not heard about it beforehand I doubt I would have noticed it...

    Cheapest P100D model S ?

    Yeah! That was most likely a 100D not a P100D. A new ordered 100D now starts at $100K and a P100D at $135K.

    Supercharger - Austin, TX

    Wow, Austin must really enforce the front plate rule. I've never seen so many front plates on Tesla's at any gatherings in Houston. My wife runs a front plate but she is a rule follower plus it's a nice place to mount the toll tag.

    self made aero wheels

    It needs to be a blind test too. If you know which wheels you are using it may influence your driving style even if you are careful. Seriously, 5% would be well within a reasonable margin of error.

    Who thinks the holdup is Tesla is just waiting until Thursday to announce the next generation of chargers? Could this be them? :^) Tesla Superdupercharger!

    self made aero wheels

    I too don't see this or any aero wheel being cost beneficial. Even if it only cost $100 per wheel, how long would it take to make up the costs in aero savings? Could it be done in the life of the car?

    Windshield mounted radar detector in refreshed Model S

    Our Model S 75D delivered in Dec of 2016. We were told by Tesla that the issues with radar detectors had been resolved. We took it in for a dash cam install and to have our radar detector hard wired. The installer tested the detector and said there were no issues with the normal detector...

    Mobile charging outlet in front of car???

    I had my 14-50 outlet installed from the ceiling. I built a mini 2'x2' "wall" hanging down that I have it attached cables to. It's just wrapped around a cord hook and I unwrap to charge. I can pull in straight or back into any of the spots in our 3 car garage.
