saw that this morning :(

Where do you get the 'airbag pinout'? Or does anyone have the pinout info for the 1131144 cable?

The topic of advertising came up at the shareholders meeting. What wasn't mentioned was the fact that positive news reporting comes as a benefit to paying customers of TV, Newspapers, Radio and News Websites. Why should news outlets run good stories about Tesla when it might upset the very...

And Direct Sales. And Software Updates. And Alien Dreadnaughts.

I believe they are making the exact same mistake. FWIW, I predict that AP2.0 hardware will never be approved for full autonomy. Just as AP1.0 will never perform as advertised. The question is, what compensation can be expected. It was only a $2500 dollar option and some parts perform as...

Yes please, a good clear closeup shot just ahead of the rear wheel well could be very useful thanks.

Thanks for the input. Did you drive on gravelly or sandy roads? If so for how long and would you be willing to post a photo? Thanks again.

Yes they called it rock chip damage/sand blasting. You can feel the larger spots are holes with your fingernail.

Unfortunately, they moved it twice and I've been unable to confirm how it was towed the second time. The only thing that makes any sense to me is they put it on a dolly and it got peppered at road level. I feel like I'm losing my mind, how could I have possibly missed that obvious of damage...

Alternatively, are there any Model S out there that have done a lot of winter driving that don't look like this? Any anecdotal evidence/pictures will help my case. Thanks again!

My car was towed about 8 hours to a repair shop and when I picked it up it seemed to me there was significant new rock chip damage in front of the rear wheel wells where the body flares out. My insurance company tells me this is normal for winter driving. Could anyone confirm similar...

I also find the floor setting on the HVAC to be completely unacceptable in the 2015 model. I recall that a programming change was made earlier to provide more air to the windshield because of fogging issues, but it seems they over compensated. When it is set to floor only, there is still a LOT...

AFAIK, around here on private property all collisions are 50/50 liability. So right of way should be the standard 'whoever is to the right hand side' even if viewing in reverse.

I believe it's the other way around. In fact what other car company would want to with Tesla's name all over them?

I believe when Elon said other cars must be capable of supercharging he meant at full power. 50kW wouldn't cut it because the charging stall will be occupied longer (lower utilization)
