    How many moving parts in a Model S

    Anyone know how many moving parts there are in a Model S and in equivalent ICEs like BMW 7 series, MB 500 and Porsche Panamera. Would be a fun trivia fact. Less to go wrong by a factor of X. I bet someone in TMC has good data.

    Has anyone received the replacement NEMA 14-50 adapter?

    Went to Sunnyvale SC and they swapped out the whole UMC. This is my third UMC since picking up the car in November '13. New UMC + new adapter - will report back if it melts again. I should point out that both times the SC swapped out same day and the UMC worked fine last night. Only a minor...

    Has anyone received the replacement NEMA 14-50 adapter?

    Mine came today but I can't remove the original from the UMC and install the new one. It won't separate. Anyone had similar issue? Suggestions?

    Something other than the fire. Final days to delivery countdown!

    They're 19" cyclones. The mirrors are way useful in smaller parking spaces and autofold when you walk away. The MS is a *lot* wider than I was used to and our garage is tight. You can also fold them via the controls on the driver's side door.

    Something other than the fire. Final days to delivery countdown!

    Did the factory tour back in Feb, had an inside contact. Took my inlaws and parents who were all in from out of town. Biggest regret was not buying the stock that day :-)
