    WFH & Charging

    Hi — Seeing there’s a ton of conflicting info on optimizing battery health, etc. I have a 2024 3LR. I work from home, so at most drive about ~25mi during the week, and a whole lot more on weekends. So far, have been starting the week between 60-75% and letting it sit w/o charging until...

    For anyone in South FL, fyi - I see there’s a LR SG/White/18” on its way to Ft. Myers

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Today marks a week since delivery and I couldn’t be happier. What an amazing car. Zero complaints. I posted this on a different thread but fyi.. ambient light brightness = display brightness… :-)

    2024 Ambient Lighting

    I’ve seen many reviews and folks criticizing the brightness of lighting. Was also pretty disappointed myself, BUT I figured something out I’d love to share.. Display brightness = Ambient lighting brightness 😊

    Welllllllll this announcement hurt a bit. 😂 To cope, anyone purchase/install a rear spoiler/lip yet on Highland? Will be scanning the Tesla shop to see if they make the M3P one available though. Usually the case, right?

    Wall Connector: Inside vs Outside?

    Thanks for your help everyone. Think I’ll go outdoor and figure out the awning situation with more time.

    Posted in another area but figured I’d get a quicker response here. I live in Miami and am wondering if there’s any risk to mounting wall connector outside. We get beat down by heavy rain & sunlight all year. The connector looks very solid and sealed but I dunno…

    Wall Connector: Inside vs Outside?

    Hey everyone — Electrician is coming by today or tomorrow to install the wall connector. I live in Miami where we get beat down by heavy rain and the sun. I don’t mind sneaking the cable under garage door when needed, but much prefer having it outside. Has anyone seen any risk in keeping...

    Worth rolling the dice imo. All depends on your area though. If you’re not out in the boonies, think it’s worth to wait it out a bit longer, then worst case switch to black. Past days have shown a ramp in LR Black Int production, deliveries (like 5-6 became available in FL last night, and I...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    So I switched to black int/white ext. (long story but I’m happy with decision) Delivery confirmed for 4/22. Soo.. a very nuanced question for those with experience w/ Tesla. Sold my car to CarMax on 4/15. They mailed check to finance company yesterday, 4/16. Snail mail, ETA ~2-3 days...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Yep, I expect the next (decent) update would be on the investor call. Should at least give us insight into production #s. As of now we only have a guess from Troy, at 60-70%. Sawyer and others have acknowledged the white int. production issue, so it isn’t a secret and I’m sure their IR team will...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I’d also note - the announcement of a ludicrous/P trim might help us out here if folks end up switching their orders over to it. Announcement is imminent too (exp on 4/20?) along with the investor call. We’ll have a clearer picture soon!

    That’s a shame. Sorry to hear. :( For logistical reasons, folks in the EC have earlier delivery dates. Ordered 3/17 in S. FL, delivery date of May 14-June 15 has not changed. I’d recommend badgering your SA a bit in a few weeks, maybe they can match you to one earlier, in a different state...

    It’s also not a great thing to have an early VIN Tesla. Paying a premium for white int after all, even more so for LR… If waiting a bit means (potentially) less headaches, time at service etc. So be it. 🧘🏻‍♂️ The “hate” I’ve seen these past few days is weird. Being on a forum, looking out...

    On all cars, I stick with the famous Little Tree air fresheners. (I love the True North scent. Not tarty or too fragrant.. just a nice clean scent. All my passengers 💙 it) Peel the plastic wrapper back half way, place under seat and after 2 weeks, peel the whole wrapper off. As for washing it…...

    Gotcha. No judgement on my end. Just asking out of curiosity since this will be my first Tesla. For others here, does that sound about right? I do know tint shops complain that tinting rear glass is notoriously difficult to work with, more glass in general than other cars, etc.

    Jeezzz. 1K? Is that standard for model 3s? I’ve had SUVs tinted (3M, ceramic incl windshield etc) for $5-600 from reputable spots.

    Happy Bday! FYI - If it’s just for a day.. a cheaper option is asking local Tesla to let you take one overnight. I did this past weekend, LR and all..

    Trade In / Finance

    Hey - thanks. I plan on leasing from Tesla. Correct - I would be selling to Carmax. My problem is I’d prefer avoiding the sale before having the final lease #s from Tesla. Wondering if there’s a workaround folks have used in the past? I.E - maybe I need to email their finance team to take...

    Trade In / Finance

    Hi all, If I’m trading in with 3rd party (carmax), ideally I’d love to have financing approved and settled with Tesla before actually getting rid of my current vehicle, but have Tesla take into account that the current loan would be taken care of. I have a crazy low interest rate/payments...
