Almost certainly the first was due to construction in/around the parking deck I was parking in regularly. Afterwards though, nothing notable. I don't drive through construction sites at all and around them, as much as the average person. I even moved across the country between the second and...

Hey guys, Today I've been informed that I have yet another puncture in my tire due to a nail, and that it is again not able to be repaired due to its location. This is the fourth time this has happened since I got my car right just under 2 years ago. I've never had tires nearly this big and my...

Not super on-topic, but I finally got my Model S so I can finally derp around with the API! :)

Picked up yesterday at noon and walked away with no complaints at the time. Having already paid, it was a quick walkthrough and we were out of there. The only issue I've since spotted is the front passenger door interior trim is not seated properly on the door, so when it's shut from the inside...

TeslaTap has a bunch of undocumented information here, including some on the Tegra 2 & 3 in the IC and MCU. That was reported in 2013 and I have yet to hear of any updated, though I'm not sure how many people have pried it open to find out. Tesla's browser is a custom build of Firefox, so it...

These are the new fob holders provided by Tesla if I'm not mistaken. Where did you see it?

I ordered mine back in April and requested a September delivery. My window has been narrowed to the 5th to the 19th. It began it's journey to the east coast (Charlotte, NC resident here) on the 18th of August, so presumably it's been on the truck for just about two weeks. I was hoping to get it...

I believe they add half a percentage point for CPO vehicles.

Alliant's likely cut off is 670, but any number of circumstances can keep you from getting approved above that. When I was given a rate table, there was no rates for < 670.

That I would indeed do before making any extra payments, in any case. My first priority is to minimize losses (via interest) or put another way, maximize returns, since most investments would indeed yield greater returns, as you said... My question was more hypothetical, in case a situation...

Thank you for the enlightment(s). Thinking on it, my real question should have been, "how can I mitigate being upside down with a longer-term loan?," which I believe was answered and it seems the answer is more beneficial to me as a borrower, actually, in that what I owe on the vehicle would go...

This is going to be a little off-topic, but in the same general area: If you take a loan, for example with a 60 month term with a rate of 1.99%, and you determine that that loan is going to cost you approximately $6,000 in interest over the life of the loan, can you dump $6,000 on top of your...

They say people want better lives for their kids than they had. We're just making sure they know we have it good! ;)

A lot of people have mentioned these: Amazon.com: Silicone FobPocket for the Tesla Model S (Black): Automotive I think your SC wouldn't mind giving you another stock one if you wanted. Also, cool name. :cool:

Unfortunately, that person hasn't logged in a month, and only had that one post.
