They actually had a grand opening party last Thursday (day of sneak a peak for stampede) for all the owners.

I was busy so I didn't go but I heard it was well attended.

That's correct. It definitely likes lane markers more though. When they are not there it's much more inconsistent as to when it will allow you to start AP. if you are in AP already it seems to work...

Tesla's AP does need lane markers. It can follow the car in front of it for the most part but it does get squirrelly if it's on AP and the lane markers disappear. It generally won't let you activate...

Tesla uses the AP data as part of fleet learning. For any situation the car registers what you did and compares it to what AP would do. Through a huge number of these situations the system will...

I had my car wrapped at Refine. They did a pretty good job. They had to go back and redo a couple sections but I'm pretty anal with that stuff. I'd recommend them. Shadow Tint is good as well.

I joined Hamptons last year but barely played. Hoping to get the kids into it and get out more this year.

The Model 3 can get you to Louise And back with no trouble at all. You will have to stop at Canmore on the way back for a quick charge to be safe but that is about it. So the fact that you should...

Shea at Calgary bmw for sure. No pressure, no BS.

Not sure if you are talking to me but I have tinted windows but not blacked out lights.

My auto-pilot worked flawlessly at night when we drove home from Banff last weekend.

I'll have to try...

You can get your car to fly through cloverleafs? Mine always warns me and "keep my hands on the wheel" and then will eventually tell me to take over. This is on very clearly marked ramps too.

I've had zero issues with my Model S however I totally agree that Tesla owners are much more tolerant as a whole than your regular owner. Most of the issues that I've read about are minor. Annoying...

I have noticed the sensors show yellow when it picks up a curb and white for cars. I'm wondering if the is bias for being further from curbs. I'll try it tonight.

I'm really I impressed with...

It was where that lake/turnoff place is right before Canmore. Where the quarry or whatever is. There is a downhill part with a pretty big turn and the car didn't like it.

I got the Auto-pilot upgrade Thursday. Updated while I was at work and used it on deerfoot on the way home after work. Works great!

I love the new display. It totally makes sense with the...

Yup. I was just waiting for the dual motor to come out and then warmer weather. Took delivery in April.

They are opening a store in Chinook in the next couple months so I'm hopeful a service centre isn't far behind.

Right now they send out rangers if we have any problems.

From what I understand this does occur. I can tell you for sure that regen braking is lessened (or completely disabled) if you battery is fully charged. It is a bit weird to suddenly have the car...

Really? I don't get that impression on the forums at all.

I haven't looked into it for a while now but I thought one pedal driving has been very well received by Tesla drivers. If you really...

The regen system is very smooth. If I'm coasting down a hill I control speed by how much i'm pressing down the accelerator (or brake). I can still be in regen mode while pressing the accelerator so...

That's where Tesla is failing IMO. Their communication is terrible. They announce Ludacrious and the battery upgrade, we get all excited and then don't hear anything two months later (must be close...

Pretty sure the tesla battery warranty doesn't cover battery degradation. It just covers failure from pretty much any reason.

That said battery degradation really isn't a big deal to me. At first...

That would be me most likely :)

Tesla is not without it's warts though. I've bought and paid for this "Autopilot" feature that I still don't have 10 months after it was demonstrated at the D launch event. I'm on the list for the...

That would suck. If you knew that going into Revelstoke or Salmon Arm you could just head down via Vernon. That wouldn't be a problem. If you didn't find out until Chase that could be a problem. ...

There's also one in Canmore. You can actually drive all the way to Vancouver on Tesla Superchargers. By the end of 2016 they plan to connect Calgary down to Montana. From there you can connect to...

@rage2: I am with TD. We have all our other insurance through them and they have been easy to deal with. I don ever claim anything unless it's big anyways.

@max: sure thing! It's be too long...

My premium is very reasonable. I honestly can't remember how much it is but it is very comparable to my CRV. The deductible on the other hand is $5k. That I do remember.

@ Rage Mine is black. I think the one you are talking about white with an Asian woman driver. I've seen her a couple of times too.

@killramos: No it is not saving me any money. I calculated...

Fair enough. I personally compared the P85D to an M5 and E63, not the S class or 7 series. After looking at what was out there I thought the Tesla came out heads and shoulders above the rest. In that...

I wish it wasn't necessary but there are so many misconceptions about the Tesla, hat it's hard to ignore.

It may not be the car of the future but it sure feels like it. It's a compelling car on...

The Next Billion Tour

You should all go test drive one yourself.

All environmental, tree hugging talk aside, it's a fantastic car. 0-60 in 3.1 seconds (soon to be 2.8 seconds), seats 7 (5+2),...

From 0-24mph the P85D pulls 1.32g's. It drops off significantly from there.
...

I LOVE the Model S but it does have some drawbacks for sure. If you are an avid skier/snowboarder and head out to the mountains every weekend in the winter it probably isn't for you, at least not...

The Model S is not for everyone but I think the range problem is a bit overblown. This is where I see the brilliance of Tesla. While something like the Leaf is trying to bring EV's to the masses. ...

Fair enough. Being a car enthusiast forum, I guess I was just expecting a little more love here for the model S. Innovative or not, it sure is a compelling car.

I believe that in the dual motor setup the front motor is geared higher offering greater efficiency at higher speeds. At those speeds the front does more of the work. At lower speeds the rear...

Now that Andy is no longer available. Any other recommendations for garage door opener installers?

Anyone know when we are actually getting a service centre? Any ideas as to where it's going to be?

How does that work? What address do you send it to?

I tried the Inada sogno dreamwave at bodo and it was OK. It didn't go as deep as I would like and is missing things like accupoint massage and foot rollers. For $8500 I'd expect it to have...
