Six Things I Don't Like About My Tesla Model S 100d Long Range

Hello Tribers today, I'm going to talk about six things I don't like about my Tesla Model S 100d long range. Now, I do love the Tesa, and I think it's a fantastic car, but as with any vehicle, there are some small issues that can be frustrating at times. As someone who isn't a Tesla evangelist or an electric car enthusiast, I've always been willing to give them a fair shake and point out their shortcomings.

The first thing that gets my goat is how filthy it is. I mean, I bought this car brand new, so I expected it to be spotless. But no, it's like it's covered in a layer of dust and dirt. It's just unacceptable. I know some people might say, "Well, it's an electric car, it doesn't get dirty like a gas-powered car," but I don't think that's a good enough excuse. If I'm going to spend thousands of dollars on a car, I expect it to be clean and well-maintained.

Another thing that drives me crazy is the key issue with the door handles. I've set the car up so that the door handles auto-present when I approach, but somehow, this doesn't work quite right. I have to go get the key from my pocket every time, which just seems like a hassle. I think it's supposed to be convenient, but in reality, it's just a nuisance.

Now, let's talk about driving the car around. I've put the window down so you can see what I mean, and when I'm stopped at traffic lights or something, the car turns itself off. This is fine, I guess, since it's an electric car and all, but sometimes I just want to keep the engine running in case I need to make a quick getaway or start up again quickly. But no, the car always seems to turn itself off when it's not actively in use.

Anyway, after driving around for a bit, I get out of the house and open the gate. It's just a simple job, really - all I have to do is push that one open and put the little bolt down. But again, it takes about 30-40 seconds, which seems like an eternity when you're trying to get on with your day.

Now, let's move on to the back of the car. Sometimes, I go out for the weekend to our little hobbyist cottage in the countryside and don't come back until Monday morning. At that time, having an electric car is very considerate - it makes virtually no noise and doesn't annoy my neighbors or anyone else around. However, at 5 am, when I'm trying to sneak away without waking anyone up, there's this awful beeping sound coming from the boot. It's like some kind of safety device that goes off as soon as you try to close the door - "Look out, the boot is closing!" No, it's not that exciting.

Finally, I have to mention the graphic design on the car. The Tesla logo and graphics are very contemporary and modern, but sometimes they look a bit too cool for school. Like, when I look at the model S and 100d, it looks like something from a spaghetti western or gunfight at the O.K. Corral on TV when I was a kid. It's just not my cup of tea.

One more thing that drives me crazy - there's this very slight clock sound coming from the rear suspension sometimes. Now, I've noticed this in every Model S I've driven, so it's definitely not just one weird car. It sounds like there might be some worn-out bush or drive shaft somewhere under the hood. It's a bit annoying to have to deal with that noise all the time.

There you have it - six things I don't like about my Tesla Model S 100d long range. But hey, as I said, the car is still an excellent vehicle and I do love it. There are plenty of things to enjoy about driving a Tesla, but it's always good to point out the not-so-excellent stuff too.

There Are Also 2837 Things I Love

On a completely different note, there are many more things that I love about my Tesla Model S 100d long range. In fact, if you were to ask me for a list of all the things I like about this car, it would be a very long one indeed. So, without further ado, let's move on to those 2837 wonderful things.

I could go on and on about how much I love my Tesla, but basically, it's just that there are so many great features and technologies packed into this car. From the instant torque to the Autopilot system, there's always something new and exciting to learn about or enjoy. Whether you're a seasoned driver or just starting out, driving a Tesla is an incredible experience.

Of course, one of my favorite things about driving a Tesla is how considerate it is in terms of noise pollution. As I mentioned earlier, when I'm trying to sneak away at 5 am without waking anyone up, the car makes virtually no noise - which is just fantastic.

But that's not all - there are so many other features and technologies that make my Tesla an excellent vehicle. Like the regenerative braking system, which captures some of the kinetic energy and converts it back into electrical power, making the car even more efficient than before. Or the massive touchscreen display, which shows me everything I need to know about the car - from navigation maps to fuel consumption to maintenance reminders.

And let's not forget the Autopilot system! This is one of my favorite features in the whole world - it's like having a personal chauffeur who always gets you where you're going safely and quickly. Okay, maybe it's not perfect yet, but it's getting there!

There are also plenty of other advanced safety features on this car that I just love, like lane departure warning, blind spot detection, and forward collision alert - all of which make driving a Tesla an incredibly safe experience.

I could go on and on about the many wonderful things about my Tesla Model S 100d long range. But basically, it's just that there are so many great features and technologies packed into this car - from the instant torque to the Autopilot system, there's always something new and exciting to learn about or enjoy.

Anyway, that's all for now! I hope you enjoyed reading about my experiences with my Tesla Model S 100d long range.

talk about six things i don't like about my tesla model s 100d long range now i do like the tessa i love it in fact but i'm not a tesla evangelist or indeed an electric car evangelist i can see the shortcomings of the car and the charging system and the whole electric car infrastructure but here i want to talk about specifically some small things that annoy me about it the first of which is it's quite clearly filthy and that's unacceptable i bought this as a brand new car i expected it to be spotless the next one is i have this car set i just have to go and get the key to make this point i didn't have it in my pocket it's now in my pocket i've set the car up so that it auto presents the door handles which i think means if i go up to it with the key in my pocket the door handles should sort of come out but they don't i have to i have to do that and i don't think that's right let's move around to the other side and i'll show you something else so i'm driving my car i'll put the window down so you can see what i mean the car is off that's fair enough i've just opened it i've got the key in my pocket it turns itself on so i'll just do a little nominal drive backwards and forwards here i am i've just arrived at my house i'm now going to get out and open the gate you have to imagine the gate it's not actually here so i'll get out it's a simple job it's just a wooden gate and it takes about i don't know 30 40 seconds i've opened the gate push that one open and put the little bolt down takes i don't know 30 seconds now i can drive the car in and park it on the drive oh look at that it's off now why is it off i understand that it doesn't run like a conventional patrol diesel car does you don't start it it's either on or off because it's just an electrical device but i only got out for 30 seconds can it not just let me do that and not have to get the key out and double clip it and get it going again so i can simply drive it onto the drive right let's move around to the back now often i go for the weekend to our little hobbity cottage in the countryside and sometimes i don't come back to london until monday morning but that means getting up very early i might leave a 5am maybe even half past four and at that time having an electric car is very considerate it makes virtually no noise doesn't annoy the neighbors so i come out of the house i open the boot and i put my weekend bag or my artworks that i've collected or whatever in there and most of the countryside is still asleep because they've been up all night taking part in a wife carrying competition or something it's now time to go why does it have to do that that doesn't sound very loud there but i'm assuring you that at 5 00 a.m in south wiltshire that is deafening that will wake up five households and i know it's probably there as a safety device they've got to put that in because it says look out the boot is closing but i know it is because i've just done it and now there's the small matter of graphic design this tesla logo and this that is very contemporary i think i really like that but then you look at this bit where it says model s and 100d and that looks like something from a spaghetti western that looks like the graphics from gunfight at the okay corral in black and white on the telly when i was a kid why have they done that why have they made that really modern and that sort of almost comedic finally and i'd be really interested to know if any other tesla owners have experienced this when i'm driving along sometimes but not always there's a very slight clock that seems to be coming from the area of the rear suspension almost as if a bush or a drive shaft was very very slightly worn and it isn't just this car because i've noticed exactly the same thing in every model s i've driven and that is five six actually i've driven six model s's they all do it but anyway that is six things i don't like about my tesla model s 100d long range
