    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    Just completed my 3000 mile road trip from Pinetop, AZ to Greencastle, IN and back and the EQS exceeded all expectation. First of all, once you put it on cruise control, it does virtually everything FSD does and does it all better. The interface to control CC is far, far better in the Tesla...

    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    And I reported OFTEN on the actual Tesla forum when they still had it, as, first, GADFLY, and then as NOLEKSUM (read it backwards). I was the proud infuriator of the pathetic “Elon Is God And The MS His Flawless Earthly Vessel Fanbois“who often took down any post listing the many issues I and...

    Refresh Model S Review First Impressions - Very Lengthy

    My reaction exactly, I went from loving my Teslas to hating this car. I sold my 2021 after six months for $5k more than I paid for it and bought an EQS which is FABULOUS.

    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    Will do! I get two years’ free charging at EA and the car is pre registered so charging starts “automatically “ when I hook up. I tested it locally at EA and it worked perfectly, though two of the four units were down. A Rivian pulled in with me, and a Polestar was just leaving. my road trip...

    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    First of all, the EQS is CHEAPER. Mine well loaded, with far more func and features than the MS, was $114K, much less than a S LR wing FSD, upgraded paint and leather. I'm taking a 1600 mile road trip Monday. As per ABRP, 6 stops at 350kw Electrify America stations all on the interstate...

    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    Blind Spot WarniNguyen. Its Autopilot (it doesn’t use that term) functions perform brilliantly on the highway and does auto change lanes. If you try to change lanes without signaling it very strongly pulls you back. And it doesn’t slam on the brakes when a car crosses you 1/4 mile ahead...

    Mercedes EQS reviews published - longest range and most luxurious ride of all EVs?

    Here is my real world review. I’ve owned an MS since 2013 and absolutely loved it! Until my third one, a 2021 LR. Thanks to the bizarre interior, designed solely to be cheap to build, and IMHO hyper user unfriendly, I grew to HATE THE CAR. Once I drove my first Tesla in 2013 it was impossible...

    Loud chime with no on screen notifications???

    My 2021 MSLR Every week or so randomly goes into a full-time beep, nonstop, even when shut down and parked in the garage. The only way to resolve it is to do a hard scroll reset. My contact in Fremont advises me to let him know the next time it happens so they can check my logs to try to...

    random beeps

    My 2021 MSLR just started doing this. Got in the car after leaving a store and it’s beeping away. It beeps all the time. Beeps in the garage When everything is shut down and you can hear from the outside. There are no warning lights or anything. Anybody have any idea what this is? Let me add...

    Is Suntek PPF just as good as XPel?

    Here are my two cents based on real world experience which speaks to overall value s well as the value of partial versus full body PPF. When I ordered my 2013 S 85 Tesla offered paint protection film as a factory option for $900, and I bought it. It covered the bumper, the first 1/3 of the hood...

    The 2021 refreshed Model S WILL HAVE SAT RADIO FUNCTIONALITY!

    I have spoken with a great many Tesla sales people via the on-line buying process [via chat] and have asked if the new S has sat radio. They never know the answer. When really pressed for a definitive answer, they "research it' for 10 minutes and reply that they are "pretty sure" it is not...
