Buckeye, AZ charger is live with 8 stalls. Charging now. At Carl's Jr. 416 S Watson Rd

I'm rarely waiting to reach 90%. I find that by the time I've logged my numbers, bathroom break, and grabbed a bite to eat, evangelized anyone curious about the car or the chargers, the car is often waiting for me. That's how I get a week behind on postings. Yes, I will backfill. Spoiler alert...

Grand opening for the WA superchargers is.... Today!!! 10am in Burlington. The Burlington has been active for a while now, just waiting for Centralia to be ready.

Every party needs a crasher! (I hate using that word!) I'll be there. Bill Sig Red P85

You have to be nearly empty to get 50% in 30 minutes. Somewhere around 60% it starts tapering the charge rate to protect the pack.

Somewhere along the line I got the impression these stations were going to cost $500K each. That leaves the potential for a station to have the equivalent of 10 85KwH battery packs internally, since that would be ~10% of the station cost. Running the superchargers totally off solar seems like a...

Looks like my config sig 703 matches 371 except I'm getting silver wheels and paint protection. I want my car! (whine)

As I read the article, he's trying to tell us Tesla can't succeed because they are competing with the established car makers in the high end market where they are most profitable rather than competing in the low end, low margin, but high volume sector. Incidentally, the place where the current...

More than double my most expensive car. For that matter, nearly double my first house and almost exactly what my second house cost!

I'm planning on some serious road trips once my S arrives. I'll probably start with in-state and in-region drives like Seattle to the pacific coast or grand coulee dam or the Palouse. Also Seattle to Portland. I love to take photos and there is a lot of photo-worthy scenery all over the...

The concept that GM or any other major auto producer could outdo Tesla has a major problem. They all have dealer networks. They have to make cars the dealers want to sell. A car with the much simpler drivetrain and fewer moving parts of a pure EV will be much cheaper to service. Since somewhere...

I'm not sure you need them in this configuration. With all wheel regenerative braking, you should be able to apply as much stopping force as the tires can transfer to the road. The ULTIMATE anti-lock brakes!

We are seeing the front of the car. Look for mirrors and the steering wheel.

No, it doesn't. It's very easy to make something open. Spring load it, then when conditions call for it, release the catch. To open and close it, it has to be motorized.

I have my Tesla grey T on today. I'm in a cell free zone today, so i can get by without a chest pocket. I'd love to wear the Tesla polos and the jacket, but I'm just lost without that pocket! Hopefully, they will eventually catch on and offer some.

I wanted buttons for the shifter. I'm disappointed they stuck with the traditional stalk. I'm totally over "3 on the tree" and "4 on the floor". At this point I'm considering building my own console and duplicating the stalk features in a button cluster there.

They said they would have a movie, coloring, activities and plenty of supervision for the kids. I think they were playing "Cars" at the LA event.

My invitation came in at 5:32pm last night. Missed it until this morning because gmail redirected it to my spam folder. Confirmed for noon Friday. Not surprised they're running it from the Seattle service center. It is about 5 blocks from an I5 onramp and has facilities for charging and was...

At least 20% deferrals, downgrades, or cancellations from the signature list. But no problem, since plenty of people are eager to move up. My gut says only a very few opted to cancel outright. And among cancellations, some have reported that they're holding out for the Model X. On the buyout...

I was asking because I have been looking forward to stopping at the burgerville in Centralia where there is a Roadster HPC for a combination car/driver recharge since I reserved my car.

Any word on an adapter to connect an S to a Roadster HPC?

It says "Phase Current Amplification" Photos - Google+ Whatever the heck that means.
