I have about 5K on mine - so far so good. Quieter then thee Goodyear's and slightly better grip

I too appreciate a service free car and my Tesla has been pretty close - but when you buy a company's first production model in its first real world year - you have to anticipate being a bit of an explorer - this is a 100% new car; not just an adaptation of some prior model. I'd say they did...

Generally mine works pretty well in Houston, hence likely an antenna connection issue

Well - Living in Texas I for one appreciate that my state legislators have minimized my regulatory burden by insisting that I patronize enterprises that engage in "a plethora of ... deceptive advertising, automotive loan application fraud, odometer fraud, deceptive add-on fees, ... other...

I have parked mine at IAH regularly. I had used Ecopark's EV charging area as it had been free. In September Blink started charging $.02 per hour connected with no notice and wound up with a huge bill for three days - they did a 1 time adjustment to $25. Hence, no longer take MS to the...

All - Be aware that the charging stands at Ecopark at Bush Airport are no longer free. It is $0.04/minute ($57.60/day) plus the normal parking fee. Below is the response from Blink when I complained about a $146.98/bill. They reduced it to about $8.50/day From: Crystal Mears...

I used a swivel and 11mm ring - See Key Fob solutions - Page 13

Didn't have a rental car - that is apparently their rate with Enterprise

My car was rear ended a while back and the insurance company is offering $26/day for the loss of use claim. What are others seeing from carriers for the loss of use claim? Thanks

This is a great idea - Have never played with vacuum forming before. Thanks for the tutorial.

We used Sugar Land Electric. They were very reasonable - 281-491-5393

20,000 miles no bends or dings - but have 19s - but they have plenty of grip for me

That is what they are designed for in the long term parking lot at the airport. No valet service, unlike some of the other parking lots.

Watch your charge card if you use a Blink charger. I parked at Intercontinental Airport for 4 days at the free chargers in Ecopark. When I Parked there this week I couldn't get a code because my membership was suspended for an outstanding bill. I was charged $117 for charging at a free...

If you stay at the Westin Galleria, the Tesla store has several chargers in the parking lot under the hotel.

Caravan on the Bolivar Ferry after Saltwater Grill

Houston Tesla Club on the Bolivar Ferry after a good dinner at Galveston's Saltwater Grill

No, it won't go - been there done that

Plans changed - Tesla Caravan leaves Frys (59 at Beltway 8) at 3:45 to arrive approx. 5p.m. in Glavestion on Saturday the 7th Should be FUN!

I agree - this was the easiest least hassle purchase of a car that I have ever made. Especially liked that there was no pressure to buy products or options I didn't need or want from a commissioned F & I guy ($300 for nitrogen for $1.00 worth of nitrogen for my tires). It also took about 15...

Good deal - Looking forward to meeting you

If I have my facts straight on the trip to Saltwater Grill - See the Facebook page for the latest details Tesla Caravan leaves Frys (59 at Beltway 8) at 4:45 to arrive approx. 6p.m. in Glavestion on Saturday the 7th Should be FUN!

What are the hourly repair rates people are seeing for body work around the country. In Houston, the rate quoted was about $110, but an insurer indicated that the rate in Dallas was $50 for a Tesla certified shop, which makes no sense to me. Too good to be true??

You might think about having your charge cable in the ceiling and pulling in forward as it is a pain to slide across

Bad experience with flood waters

See Torklift Central Eco Hitch Installed - Pictures

The 12v circular hole thingy (FKA cigarette lighter) seems to be providing power to my phone even when I am out of the car, as does the USB port charger

It is likely not too late to move it. You may just have to pay a few days of storage - but worth the peace of mind

+1.

We keep ours plugged in full time. Bought an extra cable to keep in the car. Have never used it in 12K miles!

Finally Another Green One in the Wild Had to park next to this Green 85 at ABBA The Concert at Jones Hall tonight - Nice to have a twin!

Tesla has once again really stepped up to the plate with the warranty change!!

Just press the steering wheel button and say "navigate to _________"

Not sure whether this helps or hurts us - Battery Problems on Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner Are Back - See this article from today --- Battery Problems on Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner Are Back | Wall St. Cheat Sheet

I was more concerned that there might be a run on marshmallows and skewers :-)

Just an informed consent :-)

I think Mario's point is quite valid. Your (Bill Hamp's) comments, as a new poster, are frankly insulting. Take a deep breath, learn about the Tesla and then make constructive comments. Recognize that the N related to these events is very small, that the prior events have had reasonable...

I got one as well. Suspect it related to our comments on the MS fire Tesla ROCKS

Have to say the performance and safety of the Tesla were once again demonstrated with this event (imagine 25 tons hitting a gas tank), but more importantly Tesla's communication was on the money. They provided hard facts quickly once they were known (even acknowledged the battery involvement...

Perhaps Tesla should respond with New Gear for the Model S- http://shop.teslamotors.com/products/model-s/Nomex-driving-suit http://shop.teslamotors.com/products/model-s/fire-extinguisher

Glad to hear that!!

Does anyone know what happened to Cyber Welly's car after the IAH fire? Was it minor repair or major damage? Is it running? He has gone awfully quiet.

I put a foam cup in to my cup holder and there is a little metal tab sticking (more like a paper clip diameter wire) out of the cinchers at the 10:00 position on the driver's side and 2:00 on the passenger side that cut into the cup when you pull it out to drink. Fortunately, there wasn't much...

Where is the new charging station?

US Shipping was $11 - may need to have someone trans-ship it for you.

When I used a recently constructed road (+/- 6 months) the map on the main screen recognized the road and showed my car on it. The navigation menu on the left side of the instrument cluster did not show the road and the car would not navigate over the road, even though it was several miles...

Sounds good to us - Fry's is a good starting point for us as well

Burning small in a Tesla - Take a look at this Tesla that survived a fire pretty well. The Tesla was burned sitting near an ICE Car that caught fire in the IAH airport parking deck - http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showthread.php/8427-Houston-TX/page26

Keep the fog lights to put on your new MS!!
