Went to SpeedShield and got my Model 3 matte wrapped with a chrome delete and window tint. Couldn't be more delighted. The car really pops now. These guys really know Teslas, by the way. They've done hundreds (probably more). Also saw Aston Martins, Porches, etc as well but definitely...

I'm not saying a crime was committed. I'm saying it's pretty crappy to welch on a deal when one of the parties has >$20,000 into the deal and is counting on you to hold up your end. I paid off a 2% loan, removed an aftermarket stereo upgrade, and cancelled my Tesla service agreement all in...

I know who to blame. Buying a car with a lein is pretty straighforward. CarMax does it everyday. You payoff the title, take the car and pay the person in one fell swoop. You may also have the person sign an agreement to forward the title if it accidentally gets mailed to the wrong place. Don't...

Glad you had a good experience. Personally I found them to be very unscrupulous. I would warn Tesla owners away from Current Automotive. Lots of red flags. Their founder Seneca Giese is a scumbag.

Beware Current Automotive. They are dodgy as hell. They wanted me to give them my car, sign over my title and then they were going to send me a check in 2 weeks. I said no way and then they said if I paid off my car they would pay up front. So I paid off my auto loan but it took 3-4 weeks to get...

I guess I was unclear. Any thoughts on the interior options?

So I'm upgrading my 2015 Tesla Model S 85D to a new one. I was planning on getting a long-range model but when I went on a test drive, they let me five the performance version. We turned on ludicrous + mode and I floored it. OH MY GOD! So blazing fast. Honestly, my current car goes 0-60 in 4 or...

I picked mine up yesterday and it is LTE enabled as well. I wouldn't fret too much if you have 3g. It doesn't make a huge difference. I think now the chip they use slows things down a bit so the display is faster, but not light years faster.

I just took delivery of mine today. It has LTE. Woot. Map renderings are noticeably faster.

I just contacted them and the discount is now 0.25%. You also would need to set up a checking account. Net rate today would be 1.49%. - - - Updated - - - I called them and they will lend a max of 70k (actually 69,999). Also the 1.43% rate is for credit scores of 780 and above.

Well I just ordered mine today. Hope I get it late June as promised. My birthday is 6/23, would be great if it came about then!

Does anyone know how long the quotes last for? I'm about to order a 85D (or 6-8 weeks out). Think most places will give you a 30 day lock only...

Be fun to have a cutout on the button and use a 9V battery for weight rather than the standard tungsten.

It looks like you can request other formats. I suspect somewhere there are converters. Let me know if you think it would be worth pursuing. I certainly can front the cost of the 3D file. Also, there are other files out there but this once seemed the best and was more reasonably priced.

I thought this might be a fun project but I am quickly finding that I lack the necessary skills. Are there any engineers out there that might be interested in working on this? Ideally someone with a CNC machine that can do 3D objects. I was thinking it would be cool to create maybe a run of 20...

Well, great. I posted to the correct forum location. (-;

Looked like it last's night's episode Marty's car was blue.

I'm 510 on this list. Should get my offer soonish I'm thinking...

Why does this form same the maximum credit per vehicle is $2,500 when it is actually $7,500????

I spoke to one of the techs at the service center today. He said the spacing was to allow you to put on snow tires. Not a big consideration in my neck of the woods...

Thanks for the response. Exactly what I was thinking.

So I spoke to the electrician, here's his response (does this make sense?): ____________________________________________________________ Quick foliow-up question, did you install a four wire cable (hot-hot-neutral-ground) or three wire (hot-hot-neutral) to ####’s garage? It will help me figure...

I see. That makes sense. I guess I need to see what the wiring truly is. Unclear how he is grounding the device...what a mess...

1Hmmm...this is all very interesting. Here's the install manual from the Clipper Creek device: This shows three wires. According to my mother-in-law, he installed a 3 wire cable without a ground. That will work for the NEMA 10-50 (hot-hot-neutral). I'm guessing he is just grounding the...

Are you sure it's illegal to install? They still sell the receptacles: Receptacle, 50 A, Nema 10-50 - Amazon.com

Well she lives about 250 miles away so I won't be able to check until March. However, I went ahead and ordered the adapter so I should be set.

hmm...I think you overestimate my DIY skills and bravery. Along those lines, howeverer, I found the following page which I think will do the trick: EVSEadapters.com: Tesla Model S adapters - charge your Tesla Model S faster, anywhere

My mother-in-law installed a Clipper Creek charger for her Volt. The electrician installed a plug for me so I could charge my Tesla via the mobile charger rather than via the J1772. Unfortunately, - the guy installed a 10-50 plug which has no adapter (kind of a dead standard) - He ran a 3 cable...

On House of Lies, they show Marty Khan's Tesla pretty much every episode. The last episode showed several looks at the car, including showing the logo. Did anyone confirm if this is Don Cheadle's car?

There are signs in the mall telling you about the Tesla showroom coming. It's also posted on the Tesla Website here: Stores Service Centers | Tesla Motors There's no secret. In fact, they would want people to know they are opening a store. Generate buzz...

Thanks for putting up the pictures!

I'm kind of surprised nobody has posted this yet, but I got the following email from Tesla a couple days ago: I reserved mine in the end of October so I won't be getting mine anytime soon. I'm hoping some of the early adopters come on here and post pictures. If you are interested, I would sign...

Grapevine is very odd. Makes no sense at all. Tyler makes a little sense if you want to connect Shreveport and Dallas.I kind of figured they would connect Texarcana/Little Rock first though from the maps it doesn't look they want to cover the Dallas to Louisiana routes at all.

One other option is PlugShare - EV Charging Station Map - Find the nearest location to charge your electric car! I have a NEMA 14-50 that I'm willing to share with any Tesla Model S owner in a pinch. There is quite a lot of infrastructure in Dallas. Not as much as Austin, but plenty and more...

I believe AT&T uses the same standard as Europe, so much better partner from a hardware standpoint.

Sure no problem. I'm also quite happy. I need to get some pictures up at some point.

I installed a front license plate (using the J bolts method rather than drilling holes) and got the black plastic tolltag transponder that goes on the front license plate. Looks fine. I should post a picture...

They want them every 100 miles. So Dallas to Waco is 96 miles, Waco to Austin is 103 miles. No problem. But if you are driving on through to San Antonio, it's 131 miles. Still well within the range for a 60. I think overall that's fine. I'd rather them install them heading towards Texarkana than...

Yeah! People who try to project are stupid!!!! Let's laugh at them!!! :confused:

No problem! Let me know what package interests you and I'll pass it along to Cliff.

I found these. That look like they should work though I'm not sure about the size... Hook J Bolt - 3/16 x 2-1/2 The closest I could find at Home Depot was...

They might be headed home. Didn't someone say they lived in Florida? They might get a week at home or at least a long weekend before heading out again. - - - Updated - - - Those are great photos! Who was the guy with the flying camera? I wonder if he got some cool shots? He had this little...

I think so too and I have more confidence in bolts that in zip-ties. I might wrap the grill that contacts the bolt with electric tape to prevent scratching...

Does anyone have a picture of the car with the plates mounted like in the video above? Also, where do you get bolts like that? Home depot?
