    Has anybody tried going from Buffalo Supercharger to Somerset Supercharger

    Before the Buffalo Supercharger was available I stopped to top off in Ellicottville at a 30Amp Chargepoint charger and took the 219 route. I did not range charge and left with 20Km short of a standard full charge thinking that I that would be all I would need... I was wrong and almost ended up...

    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    Muskogee Bay Club Did you consider the 2 Tesla HPWCs at the Muskoka Bay Club in Gravenhurst? It draws 80 Amps and is free. This would cut your stopover to about 1.2-2 hours for enough charge to get to TO. I usually try to time it so I can have lunch or dinner in their restaurant - The food...

    Planning a road trip to Jacksonville,Fl from Toronto

    I didn't take the same route as mcfadyena. I decided to take the route along hwy 219 through Ellicottville. From Ellicottville to Somerset it is 316km or 198mi. It was tight but I had some unexpected weather and circumstances along that segment: - temperature dropped down to about 4C - very...

    Planning a road trip to Jacksonville,Fl from Toronto

    We just got back yesterday... 4,029 Kms or 2,518miles round trip! Trip down was especially interesting since we ran into an east coast storm which brought torrential rains through most of Penn, MD, and VA. We even encountered snow and sleet - not good since I had just put the summer tires on...

    Anyone have a ChargePoint membership card in Canada?

    Just signed up and got two cards in the mail. Already had the app but just in case. I'll have this in case I'm off the supercharger network while on my roadtrip to Florida.

    Planning a road trip to Jacksonville,Fl from Toronto

    Guys... I really do appreciate everyone's input. I didn't think to lookup rv sites but it is a little thin in that area for car chargers. I checked plug share and it is actually show a Nema 14-50 outlet in a place called Fenandina Beach on the NW side of Amelia Island. Looks like it is used...

    Planning a road trip to Jacksonville,Fl from Toronto

    Hey all, I have a conference coming up in April in Amelia Island just outside Jacksonville,Fl. My wife and I were thinking about taking the Model S on our first major road trip. I've been studying the Tesla Supercharger locations and I think we can join up with the Somerset,PA charger and...

    Winter is Coming - Tires

    Wierd buzzing through streering wheel I've been driving around at 407 ETR speeds for a few days now using this exact rim/tire combination from Tire Rack. I may just be losing my mind but occasionally I feel and hear a buzzing noise / sensation through the steering wheel which comes and goes...

    Is it just me or does everyone want to race a tesla..

    Would you believe that some guy in a tricked out pickup truck tried to race me this past weekend. I did not intend to put him down but he insisted on staying beside me and I needed to exit right from the passing lane. I could hear that he had modified his transmission/shifting as it sounded...

    Any Canadians with 5.6?

    Upgraded to 5.8 on Friday. I really like the improvements to the Maps/Nav - especially the option to go 'direction up' instead of always 'North up' on the map orientation. Performance on the map refresh and map traffic details seems better as well. Regarding the lowering, possibly in...

    Winter is Coming - Tires

    Just installed my TireRack ordered Rials w Michelin X-Ice and TP sensors. Strange but I didn't have to get a reset done by Tesla. No error messages or anything. Been driving around now for two days. Very grippy tires with the Michelins. The PS2s we're turning into hockey pucks with the...

    Bent Frame Rail...What next?

    I work in the collision repair industry and what I can tell you is that aluminum is not like steel. Most of the high end manufacturers highly recommend that when an aluminum part is damaged, that it is replaced and not repaired. Unlike steel which can be 'pulled' back into shape without much...

    Leather preservative

    I've always used a product called 303 Aerospace protectant... It is like sunblock for your car. It had kept the interior of my previous M3 Cabrio pristine and free from sun damage for 11 years. Most car leather is sealed anyway so I find that any leather conditioners just end up drying up on...

    Wow... Looks like my car is just behind yours in the sequence. Mine is also a blk/blk p85+ with gray rims , cf, pano, loaded except for jump seats. My delivery window seems to be way off yours though. I got my delivery button on may 28 with a delivery window of June 24 to July 15. Are you...
