    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    If sitter K was making a joke, I am not laughing. I was being sarcastic to make a point. My point is: This is a site for the Tesla Supercharger in Eastern Canada, so lets concentrate on that and stop the racial (country & political- wise) bashing.

    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    Oh, My, as an environmental conscious company, I didn't know Tesla did such an evil deed in China, so which lake did they filled up and how many homes & families were forced out to make way for the Supercharger locations. I can see this will be a great smearing campaign from the ICE auto-makers...

    Tesla owners will be joyful, other motorists will be jealous or simply ignorant, they will park anywhere they want.

    3G connectivity issues since V6.xxx

    Today, I started the car & use navigation to put in the address, everything was fine; 15 minutes later, I lost all 3G connection. I drove passed my destination for 8 km. until the connection came back on.

    Model S on The Price Is Right

    Yeah, I watch that show last week, in fact, her brother in the audience looks more excited that she was, it appears he knew more about the Model S 60 than she did.

    Is anyone paying these prices???

    Such was the case in 1999, when hybrids were introduced, I had the Honda Insight (2 seats) and I remember seeing used price were a tad lower (just) than a new one. Call it market testing, maybe the seller has something else in mind that actually selling the car.

    HPWC now $800! Huge price drop!

    I guess as long as you can show proof (receipt); in my case, after several talks with the transportation dept. they are giving me $500 rebate instead d/t electrician wiring.

    HPWC now $800! Huge price drop!

    Just make sure you order it from Tesla Canada and not from Calif. because Ontario will not honour the $1000 rebate as in my case.

    Who in Canada will order the new P85D?

    I am still in my honeymoon with my S85; since taken delivery 10 months ago. The new additional features sound "fun" and I am glad watching the presentation on youtube, but not jumping up in excitement. No, no, this is not a sour grape response.

    Ontario rebate - 12 weeks (and counting) normal?

    I took delivery on Dec 13,2013 and received my cheque by mail in under 3 weeks time (can't remembered the exact time).

    Canadian Superchargers

    Only Global reported the news, I don't believe CFTO & CityTV do any reporting. Question: If I charge on a regular basis (3-4 times a week) on a Supercharger only up to 70-80% as compared to HPWC on a 40 amps (80% full); will the former wears out the battery faster than the latter. Thanks in...

    Shopping Malls with Designated EV/Hybrids Parking

    When I go to a mall, I like to park far away, because I love the extra walking, just love to walk. The Vaughn Mills Mall has 2 designated EV/Hybrid parking at the Holt-Renfrew entrance. Unfortunately, the security at the Vaughn Mills informed me there is no by-law to inhibit those otherwise to...

    I dashed over to the Lawrence SC as soon as I heard the news. 1A may not be working so I used the second stall; yes, yes, it is super fast !!!:smile:

    Canadian Superchargers

    You are kidding me right??? Geez I would fume... Did you say anything to them? What are the rules when that happens? Right to ask for towing? Pending on the situation, daytime & other Tesla driver around. I would back up right in front of his ICE to charge, but be sure to take a picture of...

    Just passed by the Lawrence Av. Service Center and took a snapshot. It should be ready in 2 weeks time (fingers crossed) a celebration is in order, isn't it?

    Aluminium body Vs. Road salt

    I owned a Honda Insight (hybrid) from 2000 to 2013. It also has a cast aluminum body, and I can tell you there was no sign of rust anywhere for 13 years.

    A suggestion: When will Ontario have the first Supercharger.

    Thank you for the kind words, a bit of door mat policy, we Canadians are used to it. A bitter sweet rejoice to our first Supercharger. Super !!!

    Canadian Superchargers

    Even if it is up & running by July, 2014; I say, it is still one and a half year toooo late for the Canadian Tesla owners.

    Is there a Plugshare for parking?

    The Manulife building and Hazelton Lane (entrance on Avenue Rd.) came to mind, no EV charging at both location but car handwashed service at Manulife Center.

    Canadian Superchargers

    I agreed. Once again, Canada is being regarded as a door mat, which is totally unacceptable. Superchargers were set up before the first sales in both UK and China. Why can't Tesla do it in Canada. Even if Tesla has a supercharger system set up within BC. or Ontario as of now, it is 1.5 years too...

    Model S sightings in Ontario

    Let's stay within the topic, shall we ? I saw this metallic blue Model S on 404 southbound this am. very eye catching, not quite Colbalt blue nor light blue, I will describe it as royal blue. Is it a wrap ? Let me know where you get it done, I'd like mine in metallic sage green, red is not my...

    Superchargers in Canada! Not happening! At least not yet.

    The buzz words are: may, will, most likely, and now coming soon. Those are all expressions in future tense, the yellow brick road that leads to nowhere. Call me half empty, my balloon has landed. Even if the Supercharger is up today anywhere in Canada, it is two (2) years too late. Why didn't...

    Canadian Superchargers

    If Tesla regards Canada the same as Europe or Asia, we should have the supercharges at least 1.5 years ago. See the Pavlov's dogs salivate when the bell rang; did anyone know how long did the condition last until the dogs stop salivating !!!

    Canadian Superchargers

    If there is one, count me in, may holding up a sign or something, outside one of the service center. Don't forget to alert the local news media. That may speed things up.

    Canadian Superchargers

    Of course I felt insulted, and pissed by Tesla ......hmmmm, let's put 2 red dots on the map and see what you monkeys says. Don't forget we are the one who's doing some Model S promotion along the street-sides, parking lots, car washes, shopping centers. I certainly don't get excited by 2 red...

    Model S sightings in Ontario

    Today must be the first time I saw the most Model S on the road, a total of 5 !! 4 on DVP (2 red, blue black) and 1 (dark grey?) on McCowan northbound.

    Canadian Superchargers

    And even more funny for those arguments as where the Superchargers SHOULD placed, which boils down to : my route is more important than your route. I doubt if there will be any supercharger in Canada by fall 2015 (boy, I sure hope I am wrong though).

    Canadian Superchargers

    Canada is the second country Tesla started selling the Model S, before Europe & Asia, needless to say, Western Europe is developing a network of Supercharger and upon the first week of launching the Model S in china, 2 SC was erected. Excuses, excuses, I think Tesla is abandoning us in Canada.

    CBC article about "range anxiety"

    Now I am the "half-empty" guy, while everyone wants to have a supercharger along their favourite route. I don't think Tesla will have any supercharger up in Canada by 2014.

    Bjørn's Tesla Model S videos

    Love all your videos, there will always be rude remarks, ignore them. However, if your wife is not comfortable to appear in the video, that's fine, maybe let her hold the cam instead.

    Model S sightings in Ontario

    Today, south bound on DVP around 2-3 pm, I am red on the fast lane, you are black in the middle lane, I honked & waved; you look like someone from the Shopping Channel. Are you?

    One week with my MS

    I took delivery on Dec 13 and my charger was not installed until Dec 28, I parked underground and noticed it used up over 10 km of power overnight. However, when we had 2 days of above zero temperature and things are better, no extra drainage from the battery for overnight parking and better...

    [Advice] Electric Plug installation in condominiums (Ontario)

    I cannot answer the question whether you can sue or not. I don't like it, (or I like it) is not a rational answer. He probably know he has the power and regressively abused it. Does it required all board members to pass it or a majority? All 4 members in y condo board had no objections to...

    Toronto SC Grand Opening

    I must have passed by this location hundreds of times throughout the years, and such an irony that it is sandwiched between 2 gas station (Esso & Shell), which I happened to patron for the past 13 years. But soon no more !!!

    HPWC installation for high rise/condominium underground parking in Canada

    Any Model S in Canada, especially Ontario want to share their story about their power charger installation ? Since I am putting a sub-meter for my personal use therefore a lawyer has to draft up an Alteration Agreement in which I am responsible for the lawyer's fee. :mad: Care to share your story?

    Actor Paul Walker Dead - Fiery Porsche Crash

    This is certainly within the topic. A Porsche crashes & burst into flame, 2 people died, while the Model S burst into flame (in both occasions) both drivers were unharmed. Are we going to ask for recalls for all Porsche ?

    Tesla hate?

    Yes, that and those black Ford pick-up as well. I had that experience when I was driving my Honda Insight for 13 years. Nothing tells me better about a man than the car he drives. Their goal is to look for confrontation & start a fighting (as least verbally) session. I stayed clear of their way.

    Apartment and Condo Charging

    I live in a condo, in the Toronto area, this is a loft style building, 80 years old. I emailed the board of my building to get approval first. They had their monthly meeting and it was approved. My parking was about 40 feet from the power room and so far there is no EV in my building so I will...
