2013 Tesla Model S - TESLA: DRIVER'S DREAM

Tesla is 100% electric with zero emissions. I was ready to purchase it before I drove it off the lot. It handles like a dream and is ridiculously quiet. I have told many of my friends that the power exceeds anything I need, but it is nice for merging onto freeways and getting out of tough situations. Tesla provides Superchargers which are charging stations that allow you to charge your car for free. The most time I have ever taken to charge my car is about 1 hour 30 minutes. This was no problem because the great majority of charging stations are located next to really nice shopping centers and/or places to walk.

Story

Three friends of mine and I drove to Hemet to select a Park Model trailer that I am having built to install in our trailer park. We ate snacks and laughed, gossiped and talked all during the 3-hour drive. We definitely got to know each other a lot more. I let one of the others drive my car which was great for me. I got to see what it was like to ride in the car. And he was thrilled to act... (more)

Pros

This car has the same wheel base as a Hummer so it is a very large vehicle, unlike most hybrids. I have traveled with four adults on long trips very comfortably. Free charging stations means no money wasted on gas. The only liquid in the car is in the windshield washer fluid. No need for oil changes or tune-ups. Since the car is basically a computer, the software can be updated remotely. Since I have had the car, this has happened numerous times at a time I can choose which is usually in the middle of the night. For $8,000 my car is completely insured with the exception of the tire... (more)

Cons

Since the wheel base is so large, I find this car difficult to park. When I am in tight spaces it's difficult to see how close I might be to other vehicles and objects. My car is one of the first 6,000 made, so I don't have the sensors that the newer cars have. It's harder to find parking since so many lots have such a preponderance of "compact only" spaces. There are times that I don't want to have to stop after about 240 miles to get the car charged. Time to get from Point A to Point B is longer than a gas-powered vehicle.

2013 Tesla Model S - Love our Model S!

We have owned our used Tesla Model S, P85 for almost two years. This is a very smart, sophisticated car that is lovely inside and out. Starting with the huge screen that has everything from navigation to car controls on it, to the simplicity of the interior, this car is a statement of simple sophistication. This four door model has a hatch back trunk with loads of space. Also, the back seat sits three comfortably and also accommodates our two car seats just fine for our children. The ride is so comfortable and it rides so well on the freeway. We have taken it on a few road trips and it's never an issue to find a Tesla charging station to 'gas' up. We have a grandfathered unlimited charging plan on the car and this helps facilitate long road trips, since we don't have to pay to charge a... (more)

Story

Our most memorable story is when we took it on our first road trip. We had our son in the back, and we had fun stopping at locations to charge and exploring the areas. Our trip was about four hours, but it was a great time and a great introduction to road tripping in the Tesla.

Pros

We love the screen and built-in navigation. The car uses Google maps and also shows all road conditions and travel times to your location. The car has loads of technology, but the simplicity of the built-in navigation is by far our favorite feature.

Cons

The top negative thing about this car is serviceability. This car can only be serviced by Tesla, so you either need to use their mobile service, or take it to a Tesla dealership. While mobile service has been great, we live about two hours away from a Tesla dealership, so getting it up to Tesla for service can be time consuming.
