    Car wash in Phoenix

    I use BJs at 51st and Bell. They do a reasonable job and they familiar with the model s. (There is a brown one that uses that location as well). Just make sure where ever you go, ask for a hand wash, ie, no tunnel. ps: avoid the wheel dressing. It casts off and extremely noticeable on my white S

    Nissan Asks “How Much of a Premium Would You Pay For a 150-Mile EPA-Rated LEAF?”

    Depends on what part of the country. Here is Phx, it is not uncommon to have 50 - 70 mile commutes just for work. (Mine is 60). Then tack on evening errands, dinner, etc, and you are already at 100 miles.

    Yup. You will never, ever get 40MPG in an ICE while driving it the same way we tend to drive a Tesla...

    Another thing people tend to forget- the pano gets you the roof rack mount points where the solid roof does not.

    Arizona - Phoenix and Tucson Corridor

    I just used Discount Tire. Their rack is not programmed for the Tesla- they just did it with floor jacks. Used hand tools per my request, and had the correct torque numbers (129ft/lbs). All for no charge. They all got a thrill out of the car as well.

    Arizona - Phoenix and Tucson Corridor

    Yup. Got the unexpected love letter the Phoenix yesterday asking for their 2%. Looks like the tax code is the same for Phoenix as it is for Scotssdale, ie, City Code > Chapter 14 PRIVILEGE AND EXCISE TAXES > 14-660 Use tax—Exemptions, section kk is identical.

    Firmware 4.4

    OK. I think I have isolated the issue with the nav screen on the driver console. I reset both consoles at the beginning to have a good starting point. IF you enter a nav address, then enroute you decide to stop for, say, coffee, the car will shut off. When you re-enter the car, the nav...

    Firmware 4.4

    Yup. That's why I posted it. Just reconfirmed that the left side display does not go back to media after navigation. I will try a driver and center console reset to see if it clears the issue.

    Firmware 4.4

    Upgraded from 4.3 -> 4.4 a few days ago. Notes of interest: - the energy screen zoom (5/15/30) is now sticky. It now remembers the zoom level. IIRC, 4.3 always defaulted to 5 miles. Instant/Average still always defaults to Instant tho. - Left side driver display now goes blank after...

    My first +90 degree day in the Model S

    And I would still rather shovel sunshine than snow. Getting the windows tinted today. Curious to see what difference it will make.

    The Model S is ahead of its time, it sprang ahead already!

    May not be a Tesla isue but an AT&T issue if it syncing time to the cell towers. Here in Arizona, we don't change time like the rest of you. However, the cell phones decided to change time. Freaked the BF out this morning when he thought he was late to work. Reboot of the cell phone...

    Mine is aluminum. The DS said aluminum or plastic was determined by the options you ordered.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Phoenix has another new Tesla. Mine delivered today. Of course, the 1 day a year it rains in Phoenix is today! For those living in Chicargo, 5 more were on the truck and headed your way. Missing: - paint protector - parcel shelf - HPWC - It does not have the P85 badging.

    San Diego to Phoenix

    Apparently the car is complete as I have been getting emails to join the Tesla delivery event in San Diego. Of course, like many others, have not received any correspondence or phone calls from the DS. So, how difficult would it be to drive a P85 from San Diego to Phoenix? I assume this would...
