I live in Middlebury, VT, and I assumed that within ten years (ordered in 2012) there would be a bigger network of service stations. I still have to drive three hours to Albany, NY...and that's one way. Six hours and wait time while it's being fixed...They claim they are better than other car...

One one site, I saw where someone suggested that Tesla buy out old Sears autobody shops. I thought this was brilliant. They would have the building, lifts, etc. and they are already located in convenient places across the country. I live in Vermont, and the closest service center is out of...

I'm an outlier I guess! Before it was fashionable or something people really thought about, gas mileage has always been my first criterion when buying a vehicle. Tesla has them all beat. Ironically, I have to get the 85 battery just to bring it to the nearest service center which is over 200...

Apparently, my car has been built, and I am waiting for delivery. This issue concerns me greatly because I live so far away from any Tesla service center. It sounded like one poster was able to have the windshield replaced elsewhere and did not require a long drive to get it fixed. Is this...

I so second this request! (I don't really care about the wide angle lens, but would appreciate seeing what can actually be seen through the 98% light-blocking glass!) Thank you so much for your kind offer. Whatever you can bring back will be like food for a starving soul! And, if there is a...

I just watched it--Thank you so much! The sound was very weak, but that's okay! At least I was able to see it on the same day.

I had read somewhere that there had been issues in the Roadster around water getting in by the doors. I have not waivered in my desire for the pano roof, however, the car will be parked outside, and we do get driving rain. What assurances are there around the idea of no water entering?

I love it; the dark just looks like an afterthought/ rubber gasket to me, whereas the chrome looks thought out, intentional and snazzy. There was a sturdiness to cars from an earlier era that I miss. When I was a teenager, people were able to sit on the hoods of their cars. I've not seen...

ViperDoc, I'm curious to know more about the Tesla Rep whom you referred to...was that person here to find a location for a store or just passing through? I would love to see some Tesla action happen more north than Boston. Selfish but true!

Lightning strikes...how many times? Thank you for picking up this thread. I had mentioned the lightning strike issue elsewhere, but it wasn't the initial focus of the thread. It would seem logical that Tesla would build in some sort of surge protector within the charger to prevent a problem...

Strider, this is a huge relief. I had been worried about this ever since I'd heard about the $600 Roadster fee. It was perhaps a deal breaker for me. Did you find out anything about how they will offer service to an ever expanding set of buyers crossing the continent...world? Barb

It's another good reason to have that 17" touchscreen; I suppose you could catch up on your email while you wait!

Henry, I pulled in today and didn't really know what to look for, but I can tell you that it is located on Seminary Street in Middlebury. It is at the Public Works/Electric Company there, and they have two chargers. At the time, I was actually heading to Poolworld--the ongoing saga, when I...

Hi Keith, You must be so excited. I know that the town of Middlebury just put in a charging station, but when I drove by, I wasn't able to spot it. I will want to do a bit more investigating about this. I'm sure that if Middlebury has one--and not at the college--I'm sure that they are going...

Henry, thanks for your thorough reply. Yes, when I put down the deposit, I was told that March was a worst case scenario. I'm kind of glad, because I feel that there are so many unknowns at this point. I want all of the kinks worked out by the time my car is made. It's great to hear about...

I live in Middlebury, 250 miles from the White Plains, NY location...which I might add struck me as an odd location, being it is only 30 miles from this store to the other NY store. So, round trip means $500 or $250? I am really beginning to question whether or not this is cheaper to maintain...

I believe that I read that CVPS (power company) has installed chargers in Middlebury and Montpelier.

I live in Vermont so this is a big concern for me. When I called the NY store, the fella told me that there were a number of reservations in this area and that there would be service within a 100 miles. I don't know whether he was blowing smoke to sell cars, but I have tried to find info on...

Hi ViperDoc, I live in Middlebury and have a reservation (8553?) I am curious how you have worked out any servicing of the vehicle. Do you drive to NYC to have this done? Does it really cost $600 a pop? I love the idea of the electric car, yet my concern is that it is so totally electric. I...

Another Vermonter I was so happy to see another Vermonter. It sounds like you are very satisfied with your car. I live in Middlebury and have a deposit down on a Model S. I've been having trouble with posting, so this will be short, but if it works, then I will have all sorts of...
