But are you comparing real world to rated for the tesla? Also its cold season, no?

What is rated vs rated?

Let's not go here. This is well documented. Its a sweet ride and if he wanted a Model S he would have bought one....along with its lame interior.

OP....love the spec!

What are you getting for range thus far?
I have no clue - dont really pay attention to it - I live by, if you want fuel economy, you buy a Honda, if you want range you go with the 40.

Between rocket ship and power boost for the kids each day on the way to school - I am probably not the right person to ask

BTW, my wife still loves the minivan.
HAHAHA! You know if you guys want another van - I will be the best broker! Going to fill up that driveway for you!!

Beautiful build. I never thought I would want a carbon fiber shark fin but now I do.

now sure what it means... but I've never kissed any of my cars in the last 40 years...except for one... when I bought my 1988 Nissan 300ZX in bright red with T-top. It was brand spanking new. (on a side note, I was also young and stupid and fell for the Nissan dealer's rustproofing scam and paid for it)

Maybe I was young or something? but I hugged and kissed that car all over during delivery at the Nissan dealer. IIRC, I even slept in it that very night in the driveway. I have not felt that way about any other car ever since.

Did you end up going with PPF, or skipping it?
I'm getting ready to place my order and love FDG, but I have no intentions of installing PPF on a lease, call me crazy.

Considering burgundy red interior too, but not sure about the color, as I prefer more of a red than burgundy. Love smoke white, but want the sport seats. Anyone know what I give up going with sport seats compared to multi-contour?
