    App Connection down?

    I am back up as well for both my X and Solar/PowerWall.

    App Connection down?

    A bit off topic... If you have your Tesla power gateway wired or on WiFi you can get the status by hitting the local IP. There is also a nice little doc on GitHub with the local API info: vloschiavo/powerwall2. I'm planning on writing a HomeKit interface so I monitor the battery. Wouldn't take...

    Firmware 6.1

    I'll be going out soon and can report back if either are further improved. I can say that .140 had vastly improved torque sleep already. I was able to drive from Gilroy to Atascadero on the PCH with plenty of range to spare, averaging about 300 wh/mile the whole way. My return trip between the...

    Firmware 6.1

    I am now at .167. Nothing jumps out as different at this point, nor nothing new that I can see in the release notes.

    Firmware 6.1

    Just kicked off a new update (I was at .140) on my P85D. Will see what version I go to when it is finished here.

    Next-gen REAR seats no longer available for new orders, please post feedback on yours

    I have the next-gen rear seats and I can say that the taller head rest doesn't bother me in the least. When driving forward it doesn't block so much that can't see what's behind and when backing up I have a camera (that now has parking guidance lines) that does the work for me. As far as the...

    Adaptive Cruise Control (experience post FW v6.1)

    It may have been noted below as well, but another couple of observations I have to add: - At this point I after running my commute with and without TACC in nearly identical conditions, I find its about a wash on efficiency. - Seems to do OK on curves for me. Specifically freeway off/on ramps...

    Adaptive Cruise Control (experience post FW v6.1)

    My update came in overnight and it was like a experiencing a whole new car this morning. The TACC works amazingly well. I turned on cruise, set my speed and away I went. I tried various settings for the following distance setting and that worked very well too. I could maybe do with a little less...

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    Yes, the scarves were draped on the seats in lieu of a bow on the car. I thought they were a really nice touch. Folded seat photos. Apologies for the dark exposure, I was a bit too excited for anything better. I'll be doing a better set of photos at some point soon.

    Let's say thanks: Pizza for the factory employees

    I saw the mountains of pizza boxes in the break area during my factory tour. The tour guide even made it a point to call out that it was pizza day. Everyone seemed to be quite cheery at that factory today.

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    I just got home after delivery. What an amazing experience. I arrived about 15 minutes early at the Fremont delivery center and was greeted by DS Justine. She wasn't my DS, Nikki, that I'd been working with but she was awesome as well. We quickly went over signing the various paperwork and...

    Woot! Production complete as of an hour ago. I may have a nice present by the Festivus pole this year.

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    I too believe this amounts to beta grade control software at this point. I don't see why a P85D (or 85D when they're out) shouldn't be able to more effectively throttle down the insanity for range mode highway cruising.

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    Seeing the steady stream of deliveries and reviews is making my wait more difficult. Only 6 more days to go! Maybe if I stop watching the status page it will finish sooner, because I am pretty sure the saying goes "a watched Tesla doesn't complete production". :)

    Looks like a bad flash washout to me.

    Satin Film on Pearl White?

    I am planning the post delivery detailing for my pearl white P85D. I really like the idea of using Xpel Ultimate Stealth on the pearl white. My only dilemma is whether to blackout the chrome or leave it. I really am on the fence with that part. Any thoughts on this design decision.

    Let's say thanks: Pizza for the factory employees

    I'm game. Just need some details about what time and where to meet there. There is a slight chance that I will be taking delivery that day as well, if I get lucky. Scheduled for Dec 28 delivery right now.

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    It could be that your car was actually in production longer than what was reflected on the status page and someone just got around to flipping the bits. I think we're all assuming the production status update is automated with the steps on the factory floor.

    P85D sighting / test drives

    Just completed a test drive of the D at the Walnut Creek,CA store. As others have mentioned the acceleration is truly insane. I got two good launches, one onto the freeway and another on a back road straight in Orinda. I also hit a hard go on a sharp turn and quite pleased with the handling...

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    I received my "final" MVPA for my P85D today along with the "Make final payment" button showing up on MT. My MVPA is showing a 12/17 delivery date even though MT still shows my car as being in the queue.

    Model S - HPWC (High Power Wall Connector)

    Just had my HPWC installed today. Quite happy that my electrician skipped the shutoff box due to the line of sight to my main panel. Now I just need my P85D :D

    Tracking P85D delivery thread

    I've been a quiet lurker as well. VIN 64011 for me too show in queue still. My DS has been very tight lipped about everything only has told me that I will take delivery sometime between Dec 17th and Dec 31st. What's worse is I work about 2 miles up I-880 from the factory and drive by it very...

    P85D sighting / test drives

    Yay! Just received a call from the Walnut Creek, CA store with an offer for a test drive of the D. So now I get something to tide me over until my D arrives later this month.
