    2018 Supercharger plan and changes - Michigan

    A long shot... but wondering if the just announced "mini-Meijer" being constructed in Downtown Detroit, complete with underground parking, will have the urban-style superchargers. It's official: Meijer grocery to be part of Detroit development on East Jefferson

    Just checked out the Meijer on Little Mack on a whim... Supercharger construction is well under way! It is located in Roseville MI, on the St. Clair Shores border. Construction is in the southern portion of the parking lot near Cracker Barrel. I'll post a photo in a bit. Meijer 30800 Little...

    Michigan Tesla Stores and Service Centers

    Dropped by the Somerset gallery store last night. Was staffed with 3 people, all Michigan-based and relatively new to Tesla. All very nice, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the brand. The gallery is located on the first floor of Nordstrom. If you enter Nordstrom from the mall, turn...

    Ludicrous Upgrade Scheduling?

    Not surprised regarding the inconsistent communication. I'm under the impression that the parts just show up without any warning. I had a conversation in the morning with the SvC with no indication that the parts were on the way. By early afternoon, I was told a FedEx package had arrived with...

    Ludicrous Upgrade Scheduling?

    Not sure of my number - I had never asked. I put my deposit down in early January. Cleveland SvC indicated that they have only performed one Ludicrous upgrade to date.

    Ludicrous Upgrade Scheduling?

    Just got a call from the Cleveland SC - my Ludicrous upgrade parts arrived today. I was already scheduled to have Telsa pick up my car and provide a loaner for an unrelated issue tomorrow - so they're going to take care of everything while they have it. Otherwise, they would have provided a...

    Random Model S sightings

    Yes - it was my first day there today ... Although I'm not a hire but on loan for 2-3 weeks while we transition and bring in a few new contract resources from my company. I normally work in downtown Detroit. Unfortunately, I hit a pot hole on the way home on 22 mile near Shelby. Looks like...

    Do P85Ds and S85Ds have inaccurate odometers that overstate distance traveled?

    A few weeks back I did a quick eyeball test because I suspected that the odometer was off on my P85D. I reset my TRIP A odometer at the moment I passed an interstate mile marker. 15 mile markers later, my trip odometer was at just over 15.3. The terrain is flat during this stretch of...

    P85D Lost power on road, "Pull over safely"

    Another data point: I upgraded to .167 Saturday night and then drove about 450 miles in ECO mode from London, KY to my home in Michigan on Sunday. No issues. BTW, it was the last leg of my 3,000 mile round trip between Michigan and Florida. The car performed flawlessly the entire time.

    Firmware 6.1

    I can confirm an update to .139 and am seeing the new range mode message and that range mode appears to work in insane mode. The manual, as it relates to range, does not appear to be updated as it still states that range mode can only be used in sport mode. There is no mention regarding torque...

    Owning a Tesla is awesome, until you get into an accident...

    Agreed - LM was only about $15.00 more per year for my P85D than my 2014 Cadillac XTS (comparing apples to apples on coverage). I did add the "Better Car Replacement" option for the Model S at an additional $151.00 /year.

    Heated steering wheel. Am I going to get my hands on one?

    To my delight, my car was equipped with the heated steering wheel. Went into production on 12/16. Still waiting for my HPWC to be installed so range is at a premium. Between the heated seats and steering wheel, I've been able keep the climate control off the vast majority of the time - only...
