I am about to take delivery of Model S Plaid in January with FSD and considering trading in my M3 with FSD Beta (10.5). Does anyone have any idea if the Safety Score attaches to driver or car? In other words, when I trade in the M3, will I have to go through the Safety Score process all over...

First time I have ever seen that. It goes away if restart display sometimes

One issue I have is that after using FSD the display screen shows a trace of the FSD icons more specifically the red outline of the road that flutters even with the car in P

Not sure how driving along PCH is going to help my score since I have no choice but to take hard turns to stay on the road.

Placed a reservation for the Roadster when first announced (believing 2020 to be a real date, having dealt with TM since 2012 I should have known better) and plunked down $50000 deposit. Plaid was announced and I made a reservation and figured why do I need a Roadster, and in any case, if I...

I totally agree with you. I ordered Roadster in 2018 and plunked down $50000 deposit. Once Plaid was announced I ordered Plaid with just $1000 down. The trick now is trying to get my $50000 deposit back. For the last 3 weeks I have been getting the run around (there is no cancel icon). Now I...

Your display looks a bit off. Why does battery SOC at top right corner show "82%" whereas your mileage SOC shows 194 miles which is closer to 65%? 72 kW is awfully low for a SOC of 65%. You may want to have someone look at it.

The reason I bring up tier 1 is that the cutoff for tier 1 is 60 kw and the charging rate initial increase ended abruptly at 60 kw each time. Coincidence? I am going to charge at another SC in a few days. Be interesting if it repeats. Agree it makes no sense to throttle.

Same thing happened to me today at Petaluma. I have a P3D+ that has free supercharging and today was the first time I used it. I was expecting 110 - 120 kW (SOC was about 30%) at least at the get go. I noticed the charging rate started as usual but then abruptly stopped at exactly 60 kW, went...

Did any of you that spent $30 on 1/4in neoprene cord, renamed "Model 3 Windshield Wind Noise Reduction Kit", realize that the same "kit" can he had on Amazon for about $1? Seems all they did was buy neoprene cord, measure out a specific length, glue the ends together, put it in a plastic bag...

Having just taken delivery of one of the first Performance Model 3s, my profile page still indicated pay per use for Supercharging. Called Tesla service and asked about Supercharging, his first response was pay per use, when I reminded him of the latest update, he was completely unaware, took...

I guess you missed the part about the Model 3 being my sixth Tesla since 2012, so lack of trust is not an issue.

1. Do NOT pay before you take delivery. Try to find the car in the lot and give it a pre-delivery inspection, especially the paint, in good lighting conditions. Don't let them scare you away. I went with friends a couple of weeks ago and while they were in the store, I found the car in the...

Just took delivery of one of the first PAWD (red/white fully loaded). The delivery was flawless, fast, and easy. Car was driven from Fremont factory (about 5 miles away) on time and in good order. All paperwork handled in about 10 minutes. While I was handling the paperwork, the owner of the...
