    Rear HVAC additional AC condenser

    It doesn't work. We have 2017 five-seat, six-seat and seven-seat Xs. The five-seat doesn't have the rear blower and higher capacity system. I have been trying to confirm since 2017 if the five seat now has the same system as the 6 and 7 seat. In Arizona, the five-seat with out the rear air is...

    How many will look into the F-150 Lightning?

    Tesla kills them all. The Super Charger system is 1/2 of the vehicle purchase. The public charger system is a joke.

    A/C Effectiveness in 5-seat configuration - Predictions?

    Not sure why it is so hard to get an answer on the flat fold five seat AC system for the new X going into production. I have a new three motor plaid update X on order and ended up ordering a seven seat because literally no one anywhere at Tesla can answer a simple question about dual AC on the...

    iPhone Music Auto Playing

    My apple watch and iPhone music player comes on every time I get near my car. Just walking by in the garage will activate music player. I never play music on my phone or watch. But Tesla manages to turn it on. I have tried every setting I can find to kill this and can't find a way to make it...

    Blog Tesla Owner Cleared of Criminal Charges After Explaining ‘Dog Mode’

    I left my wife in the car without turning on dog mode. The alarm activated and the speakers blasted her.

    Another Tesla driver asleep at the wheel!

    I should have clarified. Count 2 seconds, let the car next to you enter the intersection, then hammer it. Year's of riding motorcycles honed the wait and then go skill. In today's world you do have to explain every detail.

    Another Tesla driver asleep at the wheel!

    Every Tesla driver has two obligations. When you are first at a red light....hammer it. When you use autopilot pretend to be asleep. The world needs to know that Tesla cars are quick and also a great sleep aid.

    A/C Effectiveness in 5-seat configuration - Predictions?

    Some of the explanations I see posted are like saying there are no dual motor cars because there is only one battery. Front and rear HVAC work the same. One central compressor with dual air handlers. Each air handler has independent control, an evaporator coil, fan, ducting and heat elements...

    A/C Effectiveness in 5-seat configuration - Predictions?

    The six and seven seats have a second coil and also a second heat strip. I owned two sig X, one seven and one six seat. Both have the rear evaporator coils. I ordered a five seat when they came out and failed to notice the foot note that said the six and seven seat had rear AC systems. It...

    A/C Effectiveness in 5-seat configuration - Predictions?

    The current Model X order page doesn't say anything about dual AC systems. Does anyone know what the current production situation is? My six seat and seven seat Signature Xs came with dual systems. I ordered a six seat X in Jan 2017 and it came with dual systems. It never crossed my mind that...

    The "Federally compliant for incentive" Tesla

    Only government could come up with a program that spends tax dollars, but only if you buy an inferior product. If you buy a better product you don't get the tax savings. In the quest to ensure successful people don't benefit the end result is a program that rewards the purchase of the least...

    Fog Light Assemblies

    After further investigation we determined these assemblies don't have the actual fog light. These were removed from an early VIN car that was upgraded after a minor collision. We added folding mirrors, park distance sensor bumper, and functional fog lights. We also learned that it would be...

    Fog Light Assemblies

    I am not sure why Tesla service swapped them out when they changed the bumpers from non park distance sensor to park distance sensor. The lights work as fog lights and light up just fine. The work was done in 2014. I will post a photo with the fog light illuminated.

    Four complete calipers with pads. Removed from a Vin 9XXX Model S85 car in 2014. Less than 10000 miles on the calipers and pads. These were replaced with Tesla factory red calipers. Located in Arizona. These are a little heavy to ship. Asking $50 each plus buyer pays shipping. Full set for...

    Spouse/partner multiple Tesla app access

    We have six Teslas on our account and 5 users. Works fine. Makes it so easy to find each other and unlock or move a car when needed. Only reason to have separate accounts would be if you don't want others tracking you or buying a new car on your account.

    What comes with the Founders Edition that isn’t available in the standard production version?

    Went founder. Swore after two Signature X cars I would never do it again. Short memory. The SCOTTSDALE AZ Service center fixed every bug on the Sig X cars. So willing to do it again.

    Tesla Pickup Truck

    The thing that caught my eye was how easy it would be to haul long pieces of wood. The pass through design was pretty clever. Maybe not a solution for people that use a truck as a car but sure is an interesting rethink of what a true utility vehicle can be when powered with batteries.

    Model X + Personal Property Tax = Expensive

    In Arizona Tesla can't sell you a car but you can buy as many as you want. & you can register a Tesla for five years for around $150.00 total cost. The registration includes a blue sky plate that allows 24/7 carpool lane use. Car dealers want to block Tesla sales but the state wants the clean...

    Tire Blow Out!

    The guy did an OK job of the change. The car drop was meaningless. Can be really tough to get that type jack to release gently. Not a big deal to lower the car quickly. He even properly torqued the lugs something most tire people never do. Cut the guy some slack. Kinda of a jerky thing to...

    Nice Dog Collar and Lease Reel found Quartzite SC

    Sorry for all the typos. Typed it up quick on an iPad. Didn't see the leash until I was done charging and ready to roll. So posted it fast so I could get on the road and get home.

    Nice Dog Collar and Lease Reel found Quartzite SC

    Was left on the curb where the trunk opens when backed in to charge. Looked like maybe they lifted the dog in the back then forgot to pick up the leash. I assume the owner did not notice it missing until the next super charger stop.

    Poll: Should Tesla make software updates compulsory?

    Five cars over three years. Only issue with updates is the worry that at some point they won't waste money updating the older legacy models. No issue at all with a company spending time and money to improve a product I own. Not like BMW that charges over $200 just to get a years out of date...

    Model X windshield sun glare

    Did you remove the rear view mirror and attached vertical piece in order to tint, or did you tint around them? We did not remove the mirror or cable track. The tint shop made a pattern that trimmed around them. Looks fine and works great.

    Potential BOLT customers being suctioned up by Tesla !

    Does GM actually want to sell the Bolt ? I see it more as a product they don't want to sell but have to have in their vehicle line up. GM only wants to sell things that make a large profit margin and the GM dealers want that even more. I don't see a big marketing push from GM. They really...

    Should Tesla have rehired Henrik Fisker?

    I did a Karma test drive and cancelled my order the next day. Best automotive decision I ever made. They went out of business six months later. The test drive car felt like a mail order fiberglass kit car. I ordered our first Model S and never looked back. Beyond the cool look every thing...
