That number is almost useless. Range depends on many things, including temperature, hills, speed, head vs tail winds. Just set it to percent remaining. That’s all that really matters. However, their algorithm for estimating percent remaining at the end of a trip is very good. It even...

Drag is proportional to the square of velocity. 77 is 28% greater than 60, so it requires 64.7% more energy. I would say just HUUGGEE.

I’ll bet the shorters never bought a Tesla. If they had they would have know : the product is just too good to fail.

Don't update while sitting in your car. Do it when you have a couple of hours to spare. Don't watch it -- just like boiling water...

Iced by a Tesla product!

It’s fake, done by the Musk Tesla haters. Or just an idiotic prank.

It was C not F

My opinion is Tesla/Musk haters cannot stand a successful person who thinks outside the box. They can’t deal with someone being so much more successful than themselves. Most don’t own a Tesla and have never driven one. Their only recourse is to bash and discredit.

I was at the post office and opened the frunk to get some stuff out. A lady driving by stopped to offer assistance because she though my car had broken down

Oops. I fell for it.

I’ve

How’s the car working?

Mine was replace by mobil service several months ago. New one is fine.

Unfortunately the car is really a computer with 4 wheels. A very fun computer. But.... computers crash now and then. Hopefully over time Tesla operating software will improve greatly, and crashes will happen much less frequently. I have had mine go black now and then. And yes once the turn...

There are three variables, each must be considered separately. 1. Elon Musk. 2. Tesla the company. 3. The product. 1. Elon is brillant, extremely inovative. Great for starting a company, not so good as CEO of a large company. The best thing would be to bring in a really good operations CEO...

I love my S after one year. Best computer I’ve ever owned. Will get a 3 soon. You should have bought a Bolt.

I agree it’s not ready for prime time. But it will get better with the new faster hardware which will allow better software to solve these problems. Tesla uses video much more than other auto steer, which will depend more on LIDAR and gps. I like Tesla’s approach because it is closer to what...

You should be able to charge anywhere. Stone Age car owners don’t have fueling restrictions. Neither should evs. Tesla’s supercharging network has to match production growth.

Driving home today on Nav Auto it decelarated hard for no reason. Scared the crap out of my wife. It's not ready for prime time except for quick hands off tasks such as putting on sun glasses or opening a bottle of water.

On a trip from Boston area to Vertmont yesterday in my S, a lost all sensors. No traffic, road lines, even the rain sensor. Re booted both computers, stopped briefly. No improvement. So, I had to drive manually towards Vt. Not even cruise control!! Stopped after a couple of hundred for...

Poweroftwo, you broke the code!!! The autopilot programmers live in Silicon Valley with those beautiful freeways, smooth on and off ramps, etc. We in good old Massachusetts are driving on highways that were initially deer trails, then Natick indians, then Pilgrims. Very sharp and abrupt on...

I've already replaced mine once, after 3 months. Stupid chip right in my line of vision. Now there's a chip on the passenger side, I am going to leave it for a while before I replace the windshield again....

I just ordered Xpel thanks.

3500 miles all together. One way -- I will probably ship it back to Scottsdale in December. Brand new toy -- didn't want to leave my S in Arizona for the summer.

Roger!!! :)

No but I did get a crack in the windshield from a rock. Second time this has happened. I wonder if the low profile makes S more susceptible to windshield strikes and cracks.

Just completed a drive from Scottsdale to Boston in my S 100 D. A fairly circutious route, back roads, Monument Valley, Moab, Wash DC, etc. 3500 miles, 296 wh/m over the entire trip. A great experience. No problems finding electrons. Even in remote Utah, such as Blanding. Cool resort...

Get the 100D. When supercharging it will make a big difference in getting to, say, an 80% charge quickly. The biggest advantage of a 100 is when charging, it greatly slows down as you approach 100%. The bigger the bat, the quicker you can charge to a less than full amount.

I’m driving my S from Scottsdale to Boston. It has rebooted several times. Sometimes I’m streaming, sometimes not. I think it’s either Linux or Tesla software that is crashing. But the drive is fine. Superchargers great, plus destination chargers. You can drive anywhere in a Tesla with no...

My experience was very different. I’ve had my Model S for 5 months. ZERO issues. Maybe more care goes into the S compared with the 3.

According to Bjorn post back seat of 3 is better than S.

Tesla won’t fail because they have a great product and huge advantage with their supercharger network.

Dump your Tesla and buy a Stone Age ice beater. Service here in Tempe is perfect.

Great analysis. Drag is proportional to the square of velocity.

I’m not a car guy. Never have been. I love flying airplanes, but I was never into cars...... Until I bought my S last month. I simple love it. I will never buy another Stone Age car again, but if I live long enough I plan on buying more Teslas. Will eventually replace all my Stone Agers with...

Yes watch out in nj. My Stone Age beemer was broken into in a high end hotel lot., along with 30 other cars.

For me it’s all the clever technology, and electric. I’m a computer geek and I devour any info, apps, etc that I can get. I’m also a private pilot and actually think it’s fun to plan long trips where charging must be considered, just like a plane where you plan fuel stops. Electric now seems so...

Elon will figure out how to mass produce cars. And batteries. That’s a heck of a lot easier than inventing an ev that performs as well as my S. No worries. Now when I have to drive an ice I hate it. In my beemer X5 it really bugs me to be putting on the brakes all the time. And the slow...

Thanks that was very helpful. I’m a new owner and a computer guy so I love this computer on wheels.

Cool story. What is camper mode? I’ve had my 100D for a month and I absolutely love it.

What happened to the Places button in the upper left hand corner of the navigation page??

At night time I find that even with display brightness set to zero the instrument panel right in front of my eyes is too bright, particularly the image of my car, which is white. Is there any way to further dim the intensity of the panel?
