    FS: 2014 Mitsubishi i-MiEV Electric Car

    Looks like a nice car. Your asking price is pretty high compared to what's available in the market. I'll offer $5000 cash. Regards

    WANTED: Engine Noise Simulator

    Just Bluetooth an engine noise app from your phone to the car stereo and roll down the windows. Definitely will get strange looks from others at the stop light and a comment from your wife that she doesn't know you.....

    Tesla 8.0 Autopilot experience Poll

    Autopilot seems about the same. The UI for map and music features are far worse. So many things to complain about. Where do I start?

    After 6 months of loving my car, version 8 makes me want to sell it

    Plus one Although I'm very disappointed with v8.0 the auto pilot is smoother and I still have yet to get a nag alert to hold on the steering wheel....

    8.0 Lost or Degraded Capabilities

    If school was in session and Tesla submitted v8.0 for a grade I'd give it a C-.....at best. The only thing so far that hasn't been cheapened is the autopilot.... Boo

    Average Annual Mileage

    41k miles on my Sept. 2014 MS. I'm finally getting around to taking her in for the 3rd 12.5k checkup.... I wouldn't characterize myself as a "high mileage" driver but I can't wait to drive every day since I got her... ;-)

    Battery Range - 3 years in.

    It seems 3%+ is the going average if I interpret this thread correctly. I'm at 3.4% loss. My 100% started at 265 and is now at 256 with 31,000 miles in 14 months. Of note, my 100% and 90% (233) have been steady for about the last 4 months...

    2016 Model S delivery in 2015

    If you get the delivery in 2015, I believe it's a 2015 car.... But you do get the tax benefit on this year's tax return...

    Supercharger - Tejon Ranch, CA (expanded to 24 V2 stalls)

    Everybody should leave a detailed comment on PlugShare about the status of this Supercharger site when they stop by it. Of course this thread works too.... ;-)

    Does charging multiple times a day reduce battery life?

    As a former LEAF owner (3.5 years) and a current MS owner (1.5 years), I can say with experience that the LEAF's battery is crap...

    Trip Planner in V7 - Any Improvements?

    The trip planner is still awful... The 30 year old FMS computer in the jets I fly are far better than the "constantly changing its mind" trip planner.... I'd flame out half way to my destination if I had this nav junk in the planes...

    Windshield Repairs

    I just had my windshield replaced after a "sizable" piece of debris was kicked up by a truck going the other way. Too much damage to leave the windshield in place. My local Service center did a superb job replacing it....

    how fast do valets need to drive?

    Good grief Charlie Brown.... I think I'll just avoid valet parking...

    how fast do valets need to drive?

    The top speed definitely needs to be reduced in valet mode. I can't wait to have the autopilot fully implemented so I can recall my car like the Batmobile when some valet driver wants to play around in my Tesla...

    6.2 TACC still following WAY too far behind

    I just got back from a 400 mile road trip. I used the TACC thru various terrain, roads and traffic situations. It's much better behaved than the previous version. Although the TACC could still use some more smoothing out. As for following more closely...I think people are nuts that want to...

    Firmware 6.1

    Every one of my v6.1 updates (4 so far) only gave me the option of now or later (24 hours)... Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but I don't think so. Anybody wanna chime in? (Obvious question )

    Firmware 6.1

    For sure I've had to modify my behavior when it comes to updating my car when I'm away. My biggest issue is just trying to remember to set it. Of note, I had suddenly remembered, to my horror, that on a return flight, my car would be sleeping and upgrading, as I forgot to delay the upgrade...

    Firmware 6.1

    I fly jets for an on-demand charter company. I get called at all hours. It plays havoc with me on my marriage and now apparently on when my car is "upgrading"... I imagine there is a doctor or two out there with similar concerns...

    Firmware 6.1

    I'm on .140 now, which is my 4th one hour and forty minute downtime for me... It wouldn't be so bad if I had a normal job, but don't... I hope Tesla gets it right this time......

    Tesla Model S 85 versus Nissan Leaf SL

    My two cents: I owned a LEAF for 3.5 years and drove it 45,000 miles. Mine was an early 2011. I guess you could say I was an early adopter. I really enjoyed the car. It never had any issues of any kind....except the range... After more than 3 years of ownership I got tired of the dwindling range...

    Squeaky brakes since day 1

    I had a similar problem with my S85, VIN 56224, with 19" wheels. Squeaky brakes since nearly new. My SC, without hesitation replaced the front rotors. No problems since....
