    New Feature: access to Event Data Recorder (EDR)

    Where do you get the 'airbag pinout'? Or does anyone have the pinout info for the 1131144 cable?

    How much should Tesla spend on traditional advertising to try to level the playing field?

    The topic of advertising came up at the shareholders meeting. What wasn't mentioned was the fact that positive news reporting comes as a benefit to paying customers of TV, Newspapers, Radio and News Websites. Why should news outlets run good stories about Tesla when it might upset the very...

    Just a Place Keeper to See if I Am Right About the Future of AP1

    I believe they are making the exact same mistake. FWIW, I predict that AP2.0 hardware will never be approved for full autonomy. Just as AP1.0 will never perform as advertised. The question is, what compensation can be expected. It was only a $2500 dollar option and some parts perform as...

    Typical rock chip damage

    Yes please, a good clear closeup shot just ahead of the rear wheel well could be very useful thanks.

    Typical rock chip damage

    Thanks for the input. Did you drive on gravelly or sandy roads? If so for how long and would you be willing to post a photo? Thanks again.

    Typical rock chip damage

    Yes they called it rock chip damage/sand blasting. You can feel the larger spots are holes with your fingernail.

    Typical rock chip damage

    Unfortunately, they moved it twice and I've been unable to confirm how it was towed the second time. The only thing that makes any sense to me is they put it on a dolly and it got peppered at road level. I feel like I'm losing my mind, how could I have possibly missed that obvious of damage...

    Typical rock chip damage

    Alternatively, are there any Model S out there that have done a lot of winter driving that don't look like this? Any anecdotal evidence/pictures will help my case. Thanks again!

    Typical rock chip damage

    My car was towed about 8 hours to a repair shop and when I picked it up it seemed to me there was significant new rock chip damage in front of the rear wheel wells where the body flares out. My insurance company tells me this is normal for winter driving. Could anyone confirm similar...

    Cold feet?

    I also find the floor setting on the HVAC to be completely unacceptable in the 2015 model. I recall that a programming change was made earlier to provide more air to the windshield because of fogging issues, but it seems they over compensated. When it is set to floor only, there is still a LOT...

    Summon in Australia

    AFAIK, around here on private property all collisions are 50/50 liability. So right of way should be the standard 'whoever is to the right hand side' even if viewing in reverse.

    Importance of Superchargers in GM vs. Tesla

    I believe it's the other way around. In fact what other car company would want to with Tesla's name all over them?

    Importance of Superchargers in GM vs. Tesla

    I believe when Elon said other cars must be capable of supercharging he meant at full power. 50kW wouldn't cut it because the charging stall will be occupied longer (lower utilization)

    I've never heard of anything like that. Are there any such tax considerations that people know of in Canada?

    2015 sales per capita in Europe

    I saw this article: http://insideevs.com/over-half-tesla-model-s-sold-in-europe-in-2015-were-sold-in-norway-denmark-netherlands/ with this graph: and wondered what the per capita graph would look like: I got the population data from ...

    Remote S: Tesla app for Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch

    Good, I will download the app then. Could the the app calculate the elapsed time from the started charging notification? Could range/hr be calculated from Volts * Amps * Some constant?

    Remote S: Tesla app for Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch

    Does the iPhone layout display the current charging volts/amps etc.? And can it display the elapsed time of charge? Could it also show the current rated range per hour instead of the charging session average that the car and Tesla app show? If not, perhaps these could be shown optionally instead...

    I70 Closure!

    I would go for it. I get it's 287 miles from Silverthorne SC to Grand Junction SC via Steamboat, but only 243 miles to Glenwood SC via Steamboat. You say it's closed east of Glenwood, so it might be worth backtracking to the SC there.

    Model 3 pre order and tax credit ?

    Better wording would be the sum of the $7500 plus the residual is subtracted from the purchase price to get the lease principal. $40,000 - ($20,000 + $7,500) = $12,500.

    That configure button

    I was told financing didn't have to be in place until the day before delivery, although I was approved about 5 days before that. Best to ask.

    Suggestion for battery pre-heating and charge-end scheduling sent to Tesla

    Should read *automatically disabling Range Mode* and *auto Range Mode disabling*

    Suggestion for battery pre-heating and charge-end scheduling sent to Tesla

    Would disabling Range Mode when on shore power help? I'd rather 'see and set' the pack temperature, but Rang Mode disabling might be easier to implement.

    How often do you have to reset by holding both scroll wheels?

    I lose 3G quite often as well. I turned off WIFI last week and it seems to be better so far.
