Same thing here, both replaced but now no DRL. I run with parking lights on. Interested in what OP learns.

The lights are on, the SC looks great from the freeway! Go Tesla!

You can pry it open; use a credit cart to avoid scratching the body finish. After Tesla service failed twice to fix the problem, I have a piece of Scotch tape sticking to the inside of the door and sticking out like a handle. (Mine only fails when it is hot out - tolerance is too tight somewhere.)

I was disappointed when they ceased putting the Day up with the Time.

Where is the windshield wiper? Photos are concepts maybe.

When I was young I enjoyed getting away with things; Now that I am seasoned I enjoy doing things right. The front plate does not look all that bad. Really.

OFF. Never used it on my first MS and now wonder how it would mesh with the holding brake.

Am I correct in thinking the extremely experimental fully self-driving cars have a tower on the roof? ~Larry

Interesting yes. But we have 130,000 cars out there that could use the arm system. What will happen to us? ~Larry

My first Model S had air suspension as does my second. I use the features regularly for other than performance - primarily for sloped drives and entries to parking lots and there is confidence on unfinished roads. Also, for me, there is the Gee Wizz factor. Wow! Springs are so yesterday. ~Larry

I accepted $49k for my 2014 in trade for a 2016. 32,000 miles, RWD, air suspension ~Larry

Interesting little video: Apologies if it has already been posted. ~Larry

This is a totally enjoyable thread. Thanks so much. ~Larry

One thing I noticed, is that a Volt has anywhere from 5% to 16% higher MPGe than a Model S (depending on Model S). I wonder if the Bolt will also be higher MPGe, which does help avoid raising your electric bill to crazy levels. "... raising your electric bill to crazy levels ..." Is this an...

1M reservations? I doubt that "new" people will wait that long. But, wow, what a pretty car! Tesla, do not delay, do not fiddle with the tech. Deliver! Go Tesla !!

For Model S, it would have been so cool to put the radar inside the cone. Maybe they will yet.

It would certainly be a good hint however, it has been smeared out in the link photo. ~Larry

I second this suggestion. It is so rare that I do not have regen, it comes as a surprise when gone. So rare but as suggested the car should always act the same. Dump the power (somewhere) if the battery will not take it. ~Larry

Santa Barbara, Saturday, March 5 We had a silver bow. Again, a great experience. Nicer that Van Nuys two years ago. Still discovering subtle differences, loving it. ~Larry

So happy with my new Tesla, picked up yesterday, March 5, in Santa Barbara: This being my second Tesla, they had a sign on the desk: Great fun and what a glorious car, many new features. So happy! Thanks Elon, Tesla and Santa Barbara Center. ~Larry

My 2014 Model S 85 (not P) with 33k miles is going for $49k. Your friend's price is way too high. ~Larry

Clearly and respectfully stated. Yes, you should get your satisfaction. ~Larry

Buy the car you want, love it, enjoy it. Resale cannot be predicted. Prospective buyers may have no preference at all. Get the car for you. ~Larry

Across the street from the Buttonwillow Supercharger this morning. Driver asked why I was taking photos. Told him I was driving a Tesla. I pointed out the charger across the street. ~Larry

My Model S 85 with RWD only must be one of the last, the cars now offered with 90 kWh only. Anybody know where the VIN cut-off is? (I'm 127,574) ~Larry

Hello and thank you for the helpful answers. Yes, $49k seems appropriate for my car. ~Larry

Will a Model 3 ever be offered at $35K? Oh, I hope so but the bottom will fall out from under the Model S. A used Model S will eventually reach $35K in any case. Mine charges to 255 miles. I think not a lot of mileage at 33,000. They offer only $49,000 for it. ~Larry

Yes, doofen. Life is too complicated to do otherwise. FlatSix, thanks for the chart. ~L

Hello Friends. I am trading in my 2014 Model S, with 33,000 miles, in great condition, needing tires soon. This car has Tech Package, Air Suspension but no Pano and no driver assist as it was not out when I bought it, fabric seats, 19" wheels. It is important I think that the car still charges...

Sunday morning, 20 Feb, drove by the Tejon Supercharger. There was one open space. Went on to Buttonwillow where there were ten open spaces. Wow. ~Larry

Delicious! ~L

Thanks for sharing the video. I would think you would run with the lights off. ~Larry

I have the 85kWh, RWD going into production. The 90kWh appeals to me but I just got my "85KWATT" license plates. Can't abide putting them on a 90. Also, I don't want to give up the frunk space. So I'm staying with the 85kWh. ~Larry

Well, my Model S "has been confirmed and is scheduled for production". It must be one of the last of the 85kWh. It will be interesting where in the VIN the change takes place. ~Larry

Well done, Sam! Now the waiting begins. ~Larry

It is up now. ~L

Doing yard work and this guy walks by, asked how I like the car. "Love it" I said. He told me he is also an owner. "Yeah, I know. I see it go by." "No, the car is in Wales." He winters here with his daughter. But to the point, he said there is no speed limit in Wales, outside of town. He...

Down, maybe away? I do not find even a link to it. ~Larry

Is the person "banned", i.e. forbidden, or was his order simply dropped. NOMB, really. ~Larry

Good choice. The meaning is clear. ~Larry

Neither gasoline nor diesel. ~Larry

No. My "2014" with tech package does not have autopilot. ~Larry

Happy and totally satisfied with the work done yesterday at the Santa Barbara Service Center. Go Testa ! ~Larry

15 years old, 1955 working in a gas station, some guy complained about the new "power steering" and that women drivers would grind the tires off turning while not moving. I guess that's still a problem. Give Tesla time. These features will be refined. ~Larry

I drove through there Thursday and gave a big smile and wave. Let me suggest this: A) northbound traffic will hit Tejon Ranch first, then Buttonwillow and southbound traffic will hit Buttonwillow first. B) people will be inclined to stop at the first charger C) much traffic leaves L.A. Friday...

One at Tejon Ranch has apparently been dropped. This and trash found left there made me wonder what we are becoming. ~Larry

Yes, lets keep it down for now. ~L

Thank you for sharing and congratulations. The Model X is a winner! Go Tesla! ~Larry

Thank you for posting this link. "Disruption" is an awkward word but there may be none better. A good video, good vision. Thanks again, ~Larry

If Tesla abandons the nose cone, that would suggest it was not a good design. I think they will leave it as is. ~Larry
