OK second time around in a model Y loaner, this time it’s the 2024 Performance in Ultra Red on white. See pictures below!

Just picked it up tonight. My wife tried to convince me to go another night for pick up as she thought I was going to drag her out for an extended test drive tonight. Uh no dea...

In search of better skiing than we've gotten in the Cascades this season, I took my daughter for a skiing vacation this past week at Big Sky resort, which had a week of great snow and a wondrous return to winter conditions. I drove and brought her skis and a couple of my snowboards, plus a big gear ...

A RWD/long range matched-trip energy efficiency/range comparison. Will probably help sell some RWD versions with his enthusiasm for the Model 3. Never mind the RWD qualifying for EV rebate (here in WA) while the LR doesn't.

Of course, some of us still went for the LR version after a decent head...

I wanted not only a full size spare, but the ability to try and shred tires without concern of blowing money. So instead of just buying one extra wheel and tire, I bought two refurbed wheels on eBay, two used tires on eBay, and two TPMS from AliExpress. I finally mounted them up. I knew that one o...

I test-drove the refreshed Long Range Model 3 today, and the refresh is pretty significant (I own a '23 Model 3 RWD). The suspension and front seat "noise" are impressive. Materials seem very similar, but the door thud is much better. I could live with the lack of a DNR stalk, but it would take a...

2018 LR RWD Model 3.

This car has consistently made a clicking sound from the right rear passenger area. I was able to narrow this down to the upper C pillar or the rail above it.

Tesla service tried to fix this twice, but were unsuccessful.

I was able to resolve this over a period of a few days...

Sunshine Speed · Feb 8, 2024

I drove the Model 3 Highland base model today in Burbank CA, and I used to own and drive 2018 Model 3 LR RWD for 4 years.

OVERALL DRIVING IMPRESSION:
The car drives AWESOME. Equally as good as Legacy Model 3. It's so fun. Handling and responsiveness are VERY good. A bit slow 0 to 20mph, but fa...

I recently completed electric vehicle visits to all the sites primarily related to the Labor movement. The full story is on my ad-free blog, with links to a photo and description of each park visit: [URL='https://zct.life/2024/01...

sampelligrino · Feb 7, 2024

Very new to Tesla ownership (but loads experience with Teslas - many family members have them), just purchased a 2020 M3 LR a couple weeks ago for my daily driver mainly because I wanted a car to occupy my outside parking spot as an added monitoring system and (hopefully) crime deterrent with sentry...

I recently discovered this interesting two-part moderated discussion/debate (originally broadcast October 2023). The show is called "Energy Switch" (produced in Austin, Texas) and is seen on the PBS (public TV) network.

Here are my impressions of the Model X Dual Motor (likely 2023 model) based on my 40-minute Jan2024 test drive, suspension set to comfort mode and standard height.
This new X was a Dual-motor with Ultra Red paint, 22-inch wheels, tan interior, 5-seater.
My daily driver is 2016 Model X P90D Ludicrou...

I was invited to an owner's demo of the Highland at the Jacksonville Service Center, so I jumped at the chance. It was cool to see about 30 other enthusiasts excited to give the car a spin. Wanted to share some thoughts:

Cabin Noise: I arrived in my 2023 M3 RWD, so the noise level was fresh in my ...

I was surprised there were not many posts to replace the Tesla Roadster 12 volt battery, so I thought I would share my learnings to help others since it must be done every 2 to 3 years.

The local Tesla service center in Austin could not provide me a price, so I decided to do it myself this time.

We own and love a "tent built" 2019 SR+. Every version of a 2019 Model 3 was cross-shopped with every available wheel and tire option. Settled on the SR+ on 19 inch wheels for the additional steering feel and responsiveness compared to the other models. Specifically, the weight of the front drive un...

Tesla now has a powerwall specific widget for iOS and MacOS. You have to update the app first and then after you restart your phone you should be able to see the new widget options

Just like a boat.…..the day I bought my Plaid, and the day…..well you know how it goes.

I sold my Plaid to Carvana. Wrote them a check for $27,000 because I paid $128k for it new just over two years ago, and now it’s only worth $53,000. Tesla depreciation.

I LOVED the Plaid, when it wasn’t in the ...
