hello, i am visiting the big island for most of the month of may. I had ordered a lectron CCS adapter but have just been informed it is on backorder until mid may, perfect timing. Is there anyone here on the big island or the islands in general that would be willing to rent me a chademo or CCS...

ah waaaaaa?! i can hardline my powerwall to my home net? neat. should make setting up api stuff a bit easier since i wont have to go through my subnetwork that the powerwall is currently getting wifi from.

truth be told, i wanted a super awesome press resolution image of the doughnut so i could make a shirt out of it.

so i have been refreshing the tesla press sharepoint last night and a few times this morning and have seen no updates about battery day or any of the slides or video from yesterdays presentation. autonomy day was posted to the site pretty much right after the event stream ended. has tesla...

socal resident here, is anyone else having issues DISABLING storm mode? been trying for a few days and have a tesla energy support ticket open, but i am doubting there will be any new information they will be sharing.

all the negatives aside, i still am loving the hell out of my 2016 :D

yah, same deal here. have not bothered to fix because... id rather just stay home. hahahah

are you asking about bolt torque or power output torque? because if its the latter... my car is rear wheel drive and the clickity clackety is from the front axle only.

you must be new to tesla... my parking spot is outdoors and my model 3 drives all of 3 feet into hard soil at <5mph. yah, gona call that one a design flaw for sure. right now the spray hose to the wheels every week or two is going ok. i will be paving my driveway over the next few months so...

4 visits, all for the click noise, last one resulting in, "your car is dirty" as a reason.

this weekend i will remove my front two wheels, inspect the wheel and rotor surface and polish any ruff surfaces, also may consider a soft foil to place between. have to think on that last idea more.

i was working with tesla for nearly a year on the issue. multiple hub replacements and other things. all in ive brought my model 3 in 4 times specifically for this wheel locked clicking noise. upon the last visit the service center mentioned there was a bit of dirt when they took the wheel and...

sure is going to be fun parking the CYBRTUK in my office highrise parking structure. :D

same, i also have a frozen update downloaded, waiting for something else to happen before i schedule any service appointment. dec 2017 build, drivers light, again...

second the G5 (alhambra) recommendation, ive gotten 4 cars tinted from them and every time it was a great experience.

ive been going to the burbank SC since i bought my s in 2016. i know pretty much everyone there, and while they are almost always a joy to work with, it is pretty obvious that the white glove service has been LONG gone. hell i used to only get my S washed when it went in for service. :D

have had them on my 3LR rwd for a year. they got toasted. :D had to install 2 new ones for the rear just this past thursday... err... sorry i have the 18" wheels.

just adding my interactions to the list. have a 3,xxx vin 3 long range. schedualed a service appointment for airfliter, tire rotation and FSD computer. everything completed with no fuss. someone on reddit thought the lifetime trip computer would be reset for some reason, that did not happen.

the black sheep, aka p90d :D

got another surprise this morning, makes for second drive unit on a model s with 31,000 miles.

i was a little surprised that the powerwall can only run a "few" breakers in the panel. so its not like you can run your whole house on it. just... the kitchen, or the lights, or my water heater.

occupied structures need the 3 feet clear along any roofing edge (peak, creases, step changes). so they can smash the *sugar* out of your roof if you are on fire and are in need of assistance. im sure the rest of the fire code still applies to all structures on the property, just not the 3 feet...

it seems tesla thought it was an occupied structure, hence the pathetic kW system size they proposed. rather then talking to me and discussing the property they just said "TOO SMALL, NEXT!" It is a detached garage, which does not have the same fire code requirements so the solar company was...

@BlackM3 @woferry i was not going to bother uploading my house because it seems i was the odd one out here, with a home smaller than average. since tesla told me they were not interested in working with me i had called a local solar company. just got their proposal on friday and was surprised...

@BlackM3 could you upload a cropped image of your home from google maps or something? im really intrigued what it is about my also los angeles home that is completly ill suited for solar roof. still pissed that over the course of my 3 year pre order they managed to make the product that would...

so i got a response voicemail and email after my wtf email on Saturday. Tesla engineering said the roof was too small or complicated so they took it upon themselves to refund without explanation. my rep said its under the minimal install size, which is the same thing solar city told me 3 years...

what 800 number would that be?

^^^ so no one thinks this is weird and a bit shitty?

lol, well tesla refunded my bank $1,000 and just checked my tesla account and my preorder roof is no longer there. no email, call, or any notifications. guess thats their way of saying non-applicable? hahaha

nice, that should bring my price closer to what i was expecting.

what is your roof square footage?

satellite imagery acquired, waiting for design.

oh i know, i have a RB413 in the garage half rebuilt. it pains me to decided to get rid of this abomination, but its obvious i dont have time for it and have a greater need for a functional vehicle. also that whole carbureted gas engine thing has long since lost its appeal.

best part of that whole article.

meanwhile im trying to find someone to take this thing off my hands...

uh... what the hell? is it really that hard to send someone to do that *sugar* properly?

all of my tesla issues have not really been core operation issues. mostly just the little things that stop working right. for the model 3 that was having the headlight replaces, taking it in because the card reader on the pillar stopped working, the early phone app was terrible, forced into...

two nights ago i took a long thought on the truck, decided i would rather get the trimotor for multiple reasons. the change in timeline is cool but not making the mistake i made with the 3. ill be waiting a while to actually place my order.

that was my "the big one" plan for a while, until the day i realized someone would most likely just knock me off the bike and rob me of it in such a world...

interesting take, thought the writing on the wall is starting to appear about the base model. i really hope it still comes to market.

my wife and i reserved solar roof on product launch of v1. we wanted the smooth tiles and all information leading up to the latest product announcement was that smooth glass is on the side lines. so i called up tesla and fired off an email asking about timelines. as we are in dire need of a new...

before the x was available to buy but after pre-orders were open, the general freakout was what happens if the truck flips over?! how can you get out?!?! turns out... the people who build cars for a living already considered this scenario and everything was going to be fine. likewise, im sure...

@Xminus6 if you dont already, i highly suggest keeping one of these in the frunk. i have one for both my 3 and p90d for hauling tasks. its a great way to keep the car from getting completely thrashed. just think, 2 or 3 years from now im not going to have to worry about that. AND still get to...

just like how this: looks a lot cooler than this: i cannot think of a single car purchase i have made in the length of my life that was driving by corporate sales numbers...

parts hauling, car towing, track car support vehicle, home improvement tasks, avoiding 9mm rounds, and steel balls...

well this is awkward now...

guess ill be out a whole $100 then.

nope, never hear of bollinger, or evWest either... all i heard about was 40k and 250 miles.

uh. yah, and its electric. thats the WHOLE point. they could paint it hot pink from the factory and i would still have reserved. also it is pretty amazing that a 300 mile kick ass ev pickup truck is going to cost the same as a mouse shoe, 80 mile, ev compliance car.
