I put in an order on May 15th, and my app finally updated yesterday to June 10th to June 30th. Ordered Red on White, seven seats. SLC Utah.

I was, but ordered a few days ago. Id also rather have the new one, but the rate made me jump.

I applied and locked in .99% at 60 months. Ill have it paid off in three years anyway, but it would have been nice to have a lower minimum in worst case scenario. Wish I could have the 72 months at .99, but I doubt that will happen.

I was planning on the 72 months at .99%. I hope there is a way for me to still get it. I have no clue how to request that.

If you cancelled and reordered for an inventory discount, you would lose the .99%.

Ordered four days ago, still says May/June for delivery. We actually wanted to take an inventory unit, but by the time we decided to jump, it was gone. Guess we will keep waiting! Crazy to see the inventory drop so fast.

Was planning on waiting until September... But ordered yesterday. All I can say is the promotion worked. So so excited for our Model Y!

Agreed with others. This was some sort of road hazard.

I have a 13 mini, and 3D printed a small spacer to lift the phone up. Charges every single time now. still gets hot, but adds a decent amount each drive.

I want to hold out, but with a baby due in November, I want to get the Y before that happens. I'll be bummed to miss it by months since its my wife's car, and she will want to keep it for 8-10 years.

Thats how both of my Model 3s have been. One in 2018 and one in 2022.

Same opinion. I have a 60 amp Tesla Wall Connector in a town home with 100 amp service. I do have a Sense energy monitor and even when purposely trying to overload the house (electric garage heater, dryer, car charging, hvac on, etc), have only gotten close to 100 amps in my home. Sure I would...

Bummed now. I have always hung the second plate in my garage for all my cars. Now I'll have to wait until I replace the car. Still better overall since I wont need to worry about the second offense anymore.

I used my CCS adapter for a roadtrip to Glacier National Park and it was well worth the cost to be able to get there and return. It also happened to be that EA was cheaper than superchargers. Worth it just for that trip. It sits in the trunk a lot more now that EA has gone up so much in price.

Used it last night. Wonderful stop. Getting out of that hotel on the hill is a trick. Can't see anything until you pull out.

Utah charges a fee on registration. It is ramping up each year, in 2024 it is $138.50 in addition to the normal registration fees. They have also proposed making it more(it's already more than a car getting 22mpg driving 40k miles per year) AND they are adding another tax on EV charging. It's...

Tried this yesterday. Not online, no power. There is a transformer on the pad though.

Same here. Car has a great cell signal and full wifi. It just takes so long to wake it up and the app to no respond the last few months. Hopefully they can add more servers to the farm and get this back to working like it used to.

Cool! Great job finding it.

Appears to be. Source?

Trying to teach my 70 year old father how to drive his new Model 3 on a road trip is going to be a real chore with how the Trip Planner has been lately. I hope they fix these weird bugs very soon.

The sad part is, they dont know that. And Tesla doesnt make it obvious that this is how it actually works. We all know because we are Tesla nerds.

I regularly select the option for "remove charging stops" and make it to my destination with less than 5% without issue. The car seems to want more than 10% on destination randomly.

Good point. Tesla advertises 250kW max, but the car can and occasionally does more. I have seen 259kW max on my car.

Correct, it's 350kW per four stalls, but each power unit can steal up to an additional 575kW from another non used power unit. Also, my 2022 Performance Model 3 can charge at 250kW. All Long Range Model 3 and Model Y max out at 250kW.

This happened to me three years ago. I was getting married and hid my car to prevent my siblings from making my car dirty. My wife left her phone in the car, and it unlocked when they found my car and filled it with gag gifts.

Without the 150kW signs last time I was there. I stopped two different drivers from using them by saying the 250kW ones were faster.

I leave my HVAC in auto 99.9% of the time. I live in Utah, its dry but goes above 100F and below 0F each year. The car always does whats right when I need it.

My car is in the service center for its fifth visit for both front windows not sealing. Most of the time, the techs cant hear it. This last time, the tech heard it and said it was normal. Really not sure what they are doing with my car now. They have had it for four days.

I have not seen my car actively heat or the cool the battery once it goes to sleep (2022 and 2018 Model 3). Tracking via power usage at the Wall Connector. My 2014 Chevy Volt DID do this though. I would go into the 100 F/38 C garage and the AC compressor would be spinning and it would be...

Also here in Utah, everybody thinks AWD is mandatory so when Tesla was not selling the Long Range AWD, everybody just got the Performance (side note: also running on summer tires and probably complaining that its terrible in the snow) reducing the exclusivity of the Performance even more.

I only read the KSL comments when I need a good laugh. Otherwise, they are so frustrating and disappointing.

My 2022 Performance Model 3 only uses the rear motor for regen.

Thats great! Cant wait to go use this one.

I just learned so much about acceleration and grip. Thanks all!

If I am thinking about this correctly, using the energy to cool the cabin might actually heat up the batteries.

I will need to stop by too, just so I can say to myself and other nerds that I have been there. Otherwise I have been and charged at all of the Utah Superchargers.

The tax that Utah added to the registration goes up to $240 additional by the year 2032. So not only are they taxing us on the car, the registration, and driving it, we are now getting taxed to charge it at public stations. This year, as they slowly ramp up the costs, my registration had a $135...

Awesome how they are filling out the network. From my house to LV, Beaver is as far as I can make it. But I am coming from SLC. Easy reminder that everybody is coming from a different direction and has different charging needs.

I'll try to remember when going through here in November.

My 2014 Chevy Volt would actively cool/heat the battery when plugged in. Watching Scan My Tesla, the Model 3 LR does not heat or cool the battery when its off, regardless if it is plugged in or not. Ive even parked it with the battery at 114 degrees F, and it will still go to sleep and not...

Having been to all of the superchargers in Utah, guess I need to make a roadtrip soon.

Didnt want to quote your entire post, so I just took a tiny bit. What a well thought out, well typed, and well said statement. Thank you for the post, I agree and will continue to look at the future and what Elon will change in our lives.

Thats actually a photo of the original set of V2 chargers that were at that location. They have been powered down for months.

Those are the original V2s that have been bagged for several months.

Left front for the Rivian charge port.

Curious why you think this is? Manufacturer specific tires can be and usually are significantly different than the off the shelf spec. Based on that vehicles weight, handling characteristics, efficiency, etc.

I have been running X-Snow tires from Michelin. The main reason is they have a treadwear warranty. I'll never get the 40k miles out of them, so I know I'll get a discount each time I need to replace them. Plus, they are great in the snow. A bit slow to respond in the dry, just as others have...

Rented a Polestar at LAX, and used the Marriott app to find a hotel with onsite charging. Stayed there for a week, charging every other day, unplugging before I went to bed so others could use it. Worked perfectly. Never had to use DC charging, and never had to pay to drive around.

Thank you, that is what I was missing in this back and forth. Funny to think this thread started back in 2018 and it's still not a feature in the car.
