    Two broke down Tesla cars simultaneously-I feel like a fool for buying 2 Teslas

    Yeah, I went on a rant. Sorry. It’s a byproduct of my frustration

    Two broke down Tesla cars simultaneously-I feel like a fool for buying 2 Teslas

    I agree. This sort of thing wouldn’t fly at Kia, much less at Lexus, etc and Tesla is heading in the wrong direction with regards to how they handle the aftersales experience. I was a service manager at a Acura franchise and later at a BMW one and the things Tesla is doing would get you into...

    Two broke down Tesla cars simultaneously-I feel like a fool for buying 2 Teslas

    Any suggestions on who I should reach out to specifically and how best to do that?

    Two broke down Tesla cars simultaneously-I feel like a fool for buying 2 Teslas

    Back in 2013 I purchased a P85+ Model S after being blown away on the test drive. I followed up by getting a Model X 90 in 2016 because although I had experienced some issues with the S Tesla was by far the best service experience I had ever had. It was shortly after the purchase of the X that...

    Model 3 vs. Volvo S60 (Tesla deception at it yet again. Sad!)

    False. Not sure what you are looking at there but your info is incorrect.

    Glass roof vs rear glass roof ??

    No pic but basically the front seats will have a solid roof without this. The rear passengers will have the glass roof regardless because of the way the designed that.

    Impossible Engineering episode on the GigaFactory 5/25/17

    The promo commercial shows the Gigafacttory under construction and they specifically mention the Gigafactory (although oddly, they also so a Model S in production it looks like, or that's how it looked). I feel confident this is Gigafactory related.

    Science channel will show a new episode of Impossible Engineering on 5/25/17 (9 PM Eastern, but check your local listings) on the GIgafactory for those interested. Hope this is in the correct section and not a repost.

    Tesla Model X New Wheel Option - 20" Sonic Carbon -$3000

    unless the wheels are made of carbon fiber why would ANYONE pay $3000 for a simply different color on a wheel? I understand the desire to profit when possible on a change but this is just an completely unrealistic price to ask for what they are providing unless there is something VERY special...

    Trump dumps Climate Change regulations

    Trump is truly an idiot. I am a republican but can't believe this country elected this POS excuse for a human being. In executive order, Trump to dramatically change the U.S. approach to climate change - CNNPolitics.com

    My car needed a new door latch because the door kept thinking it was opened while driving. The next time it happens you might see the warning on the IP if you look quickly enough.

    You know how your dog gets excited when you grab the leash off the hook? The door opens because it's tying to get you to go out for another drive.

    Tesla frunk security flaw ?

    Yes. This is somewhat well known among Tesla owners especially if you have read the owners manual. I personally do not care for it being so easily accessible nor do I care for websites publicizing it for non-Tesla owner's "benefit"

    Just in case you didnt pay attention or were not even told....

    All I will say is, don't be mad when someone complains and a "I told you so" reply is posted. It's happened before and will happen again. Love my Tesla but you can be a huge fan and also not be blind to the realities.

    Be honest: is SCing on a long trip annoying?

    That is a bummer for you guys needing that. I would hope Tesla might try to rush the the fix or have the generator setup someone else mentioned on hand if that is a legit thing.

    What do we want to know from the first person to get AP2.0?

    Not attractive. The other 2 side cameras were better integrated

    Just in case you didnt pay attention or were not even told....

    You have been around long enough to know Elon is a little bit iffy with both the deadlines and the facts. The subject to regulatory approval is a good and important disclaimer. Especially for FSDC features.

    New 90D ordered, old AP HW. Am I wise?

    Yes I absolutely do. Ap2.0 cars don't even have cruise control right now. Literally there are cars that have been out longer than most here have been alive that have it and it's available on pretty much every car sold in the US now as standard or optional. Even when EAP is switched on, will...

    2016 90D MODEL X WHITE/WHITE 6 SEATER MATTE OBECHE 2K miles

    No. it does not. I listed all add-ons in the Original post. I could not see the benefit. White seats are tearing with the ventilated material according to some posts on TMC and I tried the vented seats on my original test drive. Not effective at all compared to the competition at this point.

    Will we ever have full autonomy with Autopilot 1?

    I say we will never have full autonomy even with AP2.0. The bar is too high and even though,a car can do some trips without issue, there are going to be odd situations that the current 2.0 setup won't be able to handle. The more I read the more I understand how difficult it will be for a...

    2016 90D MODEL X WHITE/WHITE 6 SEATER MATTE OBECHE 2K miles

    4XXX VIN (made after Elon's tweet about the flawless model X coming off the line). 05/16 production. Just hit 2000 miles but I am driving it so it will continue to go up a little. Solid White exterior (best color if you intend to do a wrap so it's said and no longer offered by Tesla)...

    New 90D ordered, old AP HW. Am I wise?

    Wow, you must really see a ton of value,in AP2.0. I simply don't because I strongly think FSDC will be literally a few years away at least given the sheer amount of validation needed to go from what we have now to that point and the government agencies that will be reviewing this will be very...

    Christmas is just around the corner...

    Um, not to be at all condescending but you have seen that Elon has a somewhat spotty record haven't you? I mean , maybe it will happen but I would not bet the farm on it. He's been known to make such statements that did not materialize.

    Christmas is just around the corner...

    I would like to see that but wasn't it obvious that not all 3 cars in the video they released were doing the same thing and that indicates it was a one off programmed demo.

    New 90D ordered, old AP HW. Am I wise?

    I don't see FSDC by Feb.- we are entering a whole new ballgame with regards to legislation/regulation and liability. I would love it if you were right but I would bet a "hill of Benny's" (if you get the pun) it won't be happening that soon.

    Verdict of 2016 Model S 60 Battery being top or bottom limited?

    I think it's top limited. It seems there would be a much needed more pronounced taper otherwise. My gut is that you can't charge it to it's true capacity. It could be somewhat bottom limited (more than all of the other battery sizes are) but I don't see why they would need to go through the...

    Be honest: is SCing on a long trip annoying?

    I think that only works if you have those two plugs on two different breakers correct? by that I mean you can't get more than the breaker can provide if they are on the same one in terms of Amperage or am I misunderstanding?

    Buying a car out of you area

    Yes if the vehicle was equipped for it originally it stays with the car. The access via the app is all that won't work when you pick it up in most cases.

    Be honest: is SCing on a long trip annoying?

    They may have a dryer outlet but they won't know if it's 14-30 or 14-50 and it would be bad form to ask them to move the dryer to unplug and find out I imagine. Plus, my car claims 265 EPA range but I could not get it. Maybe if I drive 55 but I would get pushed off the road at that speed!
