    The sad part of owning a Tesla... accidents

    UPDATE: Rear Glass fixed last month. Front end another story... Body shop called last week and still no parts for front end - [5 MONTHS HAVE GONE BY,,,!!! ] and due to the lack of response from Tesla parts they are backing out of agreeing to fix my car! They have wasted to much time on...

    I'm thinking of getting a Model S: Would you recommend it?

    What? You are considering a Model S because? What about no pollution, no noise, how about 18 moving parts as opposed to thousands, no oil changes, very inexpensive to run, no dealers to rip you off, no hassle to buy? Comparing a Tesla to ANY ICE car makes no sense. Either you want to be off...

    The M3 terrifies BMW

    One of the lamest commercials I have ever seen. Comparing the 2 cars makes NO sense at all? BMW ad writers obviously have no clue what the model 3 even is...

    We don't deserve any??? Did we not pay $100k+ for this car?, Do we not build up the car and company at every opportunity we can, do we not talk to whomever will listen about the benefits of EV's and why we need to stop burning oil and gas? Do we control what our stupid government does or...

    The sad part of owning a Tesla... accidents

    UPDATE: Got a call from Body shop yesterday, they said that Tesla service center had just called them and told them the required parts "should" be here in 2 to 4 weeks. I guess my email to service center manager helped. Will see how long it actually takes to gt the parts...

    Just read some posts on cosmetic repairs!! :(

    My understanding is that body shops have to apply to Tesla to become authorized. I would guess that this would involve expensive training and equipment and that only the high end large shops could afford to do it. Probably just not enough of "us" around to make it seem financially worthwhile to...

    Just read some posts on cosmetic repairs!! :(

    I had the same thing happen to me [ driver of car in front admitted fault ] but body shop has been waiting for 2 1/2 months for Tesla just to get back to them with a quote for the parts. I imagine I will be waiting for many more months before car gets repaired. I am glad that I can still drive...

    The sad part of owning a Tesla... accidents

    3 Months ago I was waiting behind a pickup truck at a stop sign when he decided to back up to let a semi turn. I guess he forgot what those big shiny things on the sides and the one in the middle are for and backed into me. Not a great deal of damage and I am still driving car but hood and nose...

    Where autopilot shines...

    Drove the Cog today and even after the recent map upgrade, Nav system still has issues with this Highway. It no longer displayed 20KM but it seemed to be locked on 100km for a good portion of the route. It was weird how it failed to read the 120KM sign more than once?? For most of my recent...

    Where autopilot shines...

    I have the latest update 2.9.154 and yes "most' of the time speed limits come up correct although on the Coq there is a spot that comes up at 20km per hour, like the camera got something in its eye and missed the 1.. :confused:

    Where autopilot shines...

    I don't chime in much on these forums but felt I would on this topic. I have just drove my 2015 85D from Kamloops BC, Canada to Las Vegas Via Reno [ In Las Vegas Now ]. A distance of just over 3000KM... I would say that for approx 75% of the time I was on AP which made the somewhat boring...

    Anyone concerned about losing autopilot features?

    I installed Ver 2.7.106 this morning. Took it out for a drive right after and could detect no changes to AP. Suspect just tweeking things.

    Wired "review" of P85D, and I'm tired of reviews focusing on the 0 to 60 time

    I checked out this "review" and then let it run into the next "article" which went on to discuss the "Hippo Butt Leach"? Kind of hard to take any of it seriously..:smile:

    BC 2015 Clean Energy Vehicle Incentive and a fuelling/charging infrastructure Program

    Yes this has changed, I am trading in my 2009 Audi TT on a 2015 85D and expect delivery early May. Tesla has given me a quoted trade-in price which I found acceptable. As well I will save 15% of the trade-in value AND receive the new $5,000 rebate.

    Pics of the Kamloops Site I took this morning. There is a transformer at site but unfortunately it is an old one that has been at this location by our visitor center for some time [ there is a Sun Country charger on-site as well ]. The nice VACANT pad next to the Tesla "shack" looks like we...

    Well there are other chargers in Hope, just not fast ones I understand, since I don't have my Model S I have no practical knowledge of the charging networks but I assume we can charge at most/all?of the other chargers but we will need to have lots of time, am I right on that?
