    Hey guys, so sorry our paths didn't get to cross on Saturday. We were there, you were there, and then our bus didn't come back to the Tesla building. Our schedule never indicated they were taking us to another building off property for the lunch. It was a beautiful day there, and the...

    I've been parking there when at the mall. I spoke to the store staff, and they told me that if there is a free spot, you can charge your Tesla there. I usually pop Into the store to let them know I can move it if needed, they have been pretty good about it.

    Model S in Extreme Cold: Driving at -30 Celsius

    Edmonton Charging - West Edmonton Mall

    I've used the Southgate charger (30A), and the IKEA charger (70A), and then Hotel chargers in Edmonton. Most of the parking lots do have plugs, especially this time of year. Just look for all the pickup trucks as they usually get plugged in for overnights, so you'll see active 110V plugs...

    Will I make it? -23 celsius & 320 km

    You should be fine. I think it would be doable. for our 85D, I'd charge to full, pre-heat before disconnecting, and do the whole trip in range mode at the 100 or even 90Km/hr. I just started playing with range mode, and it makes a difference in our 85D. We just recently completed an...

    Interesting results from my recent energy usage test. Running an empty car vs a car full with 6 of us and a Thule box on top full of luggage. Interesting results. The impact was in the ballpark of what I expected. http://youtu.be/GUraHdj-AJU

    Sounds good, happy to do the editing. Best way t get content to me if you are local is in person via memory stick, next best method would be to put it on iCloud, Dropbox, oneDrive, or google drive and share it with me from there some can download them. Stiching them them together will be simple.

    Western Canada Superchargers

    Our kids have been warm a few times, but now I know how to get them cool air. Just force air through the the dash and mid vents, and angle them to send air up towards the back' and increase the fan speed, that's it. We we also have the screens which I bought to keep it warmer in the winter...

    I agree, it's Ken of my favorite things as well. And when you get to know your car, it's amazing how little you really need to use the brakes. They should last twice as long as in a regular car!
