Wow, DC to Alaska. That must have been quite a trip. I am trying to hit all 50 states and am up to 45. I rented in Alaska and Hawaii but rode to all the others. When the West coast stops burning and the COVID is under control I hope to get the remaining 5.

As I was driving today I noticed how noisy the tires are on different types of highway surfaces. I was wondering if anyone has already asked for, or if anyone from Tesla has mentioned, ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION? I bet those big CT Tires can really sing on the highway.

I believe some luxury cars have cup holders which can either keep your hot cup hot or your cold drink cold. Wouldn't that be a nice thing to have.

I was aware of Sentry Mode but I don't know if it [Cybertruck, Tesla] will record while driving.

Perhaps the Cybertruck , or Teslas, already can do this, I don't know. With the advent of dash cams and the fact that there are already plenty of cameras built in to the CT, I would think it would be possible to have a running (loop) recording of video (say 30 seconds or so) and allow one to...

After getting in my current vehicle this morning and seeing cat paw prints on the windshield I was thinking that if the glass could be grounded (electrically) and the SS body charged, then when a cat steps onto my CT and makes his way up to the top of the truck, the moment one paw touches the...

It (customer satisfaction) was always our highest goal. But then again I was in the service division. Happy customers are repeat customers. Word of mouth gets around, both positive and negative. You are correct that the corporation lives and dies on the quarterly results but that is a...

I agree that Tesla is a young, small auto maker which would make me think they would be more eager to achieve the Holy Grail of [all] manufactures, CUSTOMER SATIFACTION. This shouldn't be too difficult due to their small (relative) volumes. I spent most of my career in customer service and...

I appreciate the details. I can say that your story is kind of shocking to me. I thought, prior to your original post, that Tesla was a real stand up company. So it sounds Tesla didn't have the expertise locally get your vehicle fixed to your satisfaction. Did they offer to bring in...

This will be the first Tesla for me. What caught my eye is your mention of the Lemon Law. Am I understanding that you had a Tesla and that between defects in the vehicle and Tesla's inability to correct the issues, you had to use the Lemon Law to get satisfaction?

Just down the road from the Circuit of the Americas track. A 3.4 mile fairly new facility which is home of the US Grand Prix. BTW the nearby road, Toll Road 130, is one of the fastest roads in the US. Speed Limit is 85 mph.

I agree with the first gentleman, the older I get the more light I need. So that brings up a couple of points: Firstly, if you have driven car from the 60s or 70s, particularly a Cadillac or Lincoln you probably are familiar with corning lights. IMHO these were the greatest, flip on the turn...

Infrared in a HUD would be awesome.

You both bring up points. I can definitely see a couple of different use cases,

Thanks, it is a 2007 with about 54K. We have ridden to 45 states and hope to get to the remaining 5 once the current quagmire is over.
