    Finally sinking my teeth in

    Yes that review was horrible. Keep in mind the one they tested is literally my car. The other day after a long and efficient trip I was surprised the next day when after charging back up(not range charged) it gave me an estimated range of 107 miles. So no nothing wrong with the battery as they...

    Malfunction Visit Workshop

    Supposedly the dealer I bought it from did the update before shipping me the car. I'm struggling to see how this could be abs related. What you describe sounds exactly like what I feel. But brakes stop not move you forward. There is power actively going to the motor for a fraction of a second...

    Not yet. Been busy. But you can see pictures of my car by going to Autoblog. The blue one they reviewed is mine.

    Disabling engine sound generator

    Not yet. I feel conflicted on this issue. The sound generator is noticeable in the cabin which annoys me. I don't want that on there. At the same time I'd feel really bad if we ended up hitting a pedestrian because they couldn't hear our car even if it was technically "their fault".

    Malfunction Visit Workshop

    So yesterday my new B started giving me a warning message on the dash that reads "Malfunction Visit Workshop". No explanation as to what it could be or how severe. The car drives just fine. Anyone else had this pop up on their car? We have had our car for a little over a month now and to say I...

    Tesla Model 3

    Well the Model 3 was unveiled today. I think the Tesla forums have in one day had more posts just about this one car than this entire forum has ever seen. Makes me both happy and sad.

    Finally sinking my teeth in

    Finally got my car today. Took way longer than I expected but man was it worth the wait. This car is phenomenal! Waaaay nicer than my FFE. Love the rich smell of the leather seats. Reminds me of my older saabs which had wonderfully scented leather. I will post pictures at a later date but I am...

    Front airbag malfunction

    Seeing as my car doesn't get here till next week I can't say I have. ;) That said I'm pretty sure I know what broke. Pulled apart many a steering wheel and had a couple have issues with the coiled tape "wires" that connect to the airbag. Sounds like something not assembled correctly at the...

    Finally sinking my teeth in

    Had expected to have my B by now. But an inexperienced salesman and buying out of state have conspired to make this process far longer than anticipated. That said I signed the final papers yesterday. So hopefully will hear back tomorrow that my car has shipped. Getting very antsy at this point.

    Tesla Model 3

    I'm not planning on it but I can't say I'm not tempted. Most likely will look to get a Model S or X in a year and a half. I want more than five person seating since I have kids.

    Finally sinking my teeth in

    Couldn't agree with you more. This is the best you can get Tesla excepted. I'm actually blown away this car doesn't get more attention. I'm am in full B class info gorging mode. Searching to the ends of the internet for tasty info morsels. My deal on the B is almost consummated. Check in route...

    RobJ it sounds like you are perfectly describing a Tesla. ;)

    [Relatively Interesting] Heat Spots in the snow

    Obviously weight does play a factor. But that effect is almost completely seen at slower speeds. Stop and go. The B weighs as much as the Tesla P90D but the Tesla has waay better efficiency. Granted the awd has a hand in that. I guess we get a double whammy in the B in that during stop and go...

    Finally sinking my teeth in

    Mycrobe curious. How is yours speced out? This one has literally every option Mercedes offered at the time including leather which I muuuuch prefer over the vinyl. We have a Ford Focus EV now on lease and are about to turn it back in. My original idea was just to buy a used Focus EV. But I...
