Hi Everyone - haven't been around in forever. Attached is a picture of my latest car taken the week before last after a hand wash/wax job. I got it in June 2020 and I absolutely LOVE it. Best car I have ever owned. Mainly used around town but we have taken it to Palm Springs twice for weekend getaways. Love the super charger network! It's a Long Range with white interior and upgraded wheels.

Hey stranger. Assume the cabriolet is gone?

That's a great looking build on the Tesla.

Yes, I loved my 330cic, but alas the lease ended. That was followed by a manual X3 (meh), 335 coupe (meh), GTI (terrible), 128i convertible (we called it the dump truck), Cadillac ATS (VERY nice car), Cadillac CTS (Very luxurious car, but not as much fun as the ATS), and now the Tesla (absolutely AWESOME car). I'm pretty sure this Tesla will be followed by another Tesla!

Well. It’s nice to have you back. And thank you for the updates.

Hey Bruce! Welcome back.

I have nearly the same car. Just have the black interior instead…

Thanks.

When I ordered my Tesla I got an email within a day asking me if I would take one with the black interior instead of waiting for mine to be built. I just really wanted the white interior as I have had a black interior in almost every car I've ever owned, so I told them 'no, I'm willing to wait a few months to get the interior I want'.

I never expected to love the Tesla as much as I do. I was hesitant as well because my husband is not at all tech saavy and I thought he'd have a lot of trouble figuring out the controls, but he loves it and finds the interface very intuitive.

When I was working at home full time during 2020, he was always coming up with errands to run so he could borrow my car and drive it!
