I received the preliminary police report and retrieved the video. We had to break into the glovebox because the battery was damaged (leaking fluid) and the truck is bricked. Turns out the other vehicle was an Expedition not an Explorer, I'm afraid I don't know my late 90's Fords at a glance...

I have Tesla insurance. I opened the claim using the app and going through their steps. Quick response. So far, so good.

His left front was completely flattened, all the way to the windshield.

Updated with video: A guy crossed over the double yellow and I could not get out of the way fast enough. We were both at highway speeds.. My wife, granddaughter and I we're all shaken and are being evaluated (at the emergency room and I'm bored, hence the reason for the post). No critical...

I've got a few more miles on mine and agree totally with the OP on his review. A couple of additions: -bugs plaster solidly on the flat nose but not much on the windshield. -the wife and I have made a few longish trips. The seats are comfortable for the two to three hours between stops. It's...

Unfortunately, I set my system up long ago and can not remember what I learned then. I've posted a picture of the switch that interrupts the line input. The rest of the wiring is buried. My most recent ICE generator is an off the shelf Costco Firman unit from several years back.

Manual Switch was installed when we built the house, 24 years ago. We plan to install the Powershare when Tesla provides it. The cable is wired directly to the switch then to the male plug. The thickness of the cable (and it's cold) makes our flat plug a little hard to maneuver and "seat"...

Eventually, the Powershare will be installed, as it's part of the CT Foundation Series purchase, but until then, I am very pleased to be able to just plug in to my existing system.

My CT hadn't been home 24 hours before our power went out due to a big storm. I have a cutoff switch with a NEMA 14-50 plug that I usually plug into an ICE generator during power outages. This time I plugged into the CT, turned it on with the app and "no fuss, no muss" the house had power...

Notes: -My Reservation # RN112744xxx is, comparatively, quite low but I didn't see the email for more than 90 minutes. A lot of people got orders in before me (Confirmation email @ 9:30 PM). I wonder if that is going to make a difference to the date of delivery. -I saw a projected delivery...

Thanks for the visual. Looks like it'll need a telescoping extension to reach the passenger side. Not a very "simple" design.

I've seen several comments that the 11th digit in the VIN are: F = Fremont A = Austin

They'll probably provide a key card as an alternate method of entry and activation.
