I am sure there will be many other posts like this as we share our experience with this very cool car. So here's my experience, takeaways, the good, and ugly about my Model 3 ownership after 5 years.

Here is a photo of Kuzco, my 2018 Long Range RWD 3 on delivery day (June 5 2018), in Mississauga On...

I thought from the beginning that it would be nice to get a metal truck and compliment that with a metal trailer, out there in the sun with the paint never pealing, initially that made me think of the Airstreams, anything from a tiny Basecamp all the way up to ...

I received my 2023 Modal Y just 9 days after I placed my order- compared with 18 months (550 days) waiting for my 2018 Model 3. There were many reasons for choosing the M-Y, such as size, volume, legroom, comfort, longer charge/range and other published specifications.
But beyond the specs, the foll...

Uhoh the new Escalade is electric, and is being referred to as a Tesla Killer. They’ll sell maybe 20,000 a year with enormous 200kW-hr batteries. How is this going to kill Tesla — will they die laughing o...

Hello everyone,

I benefited a lot from other posters in this forum, so thought I'd give back by sharing my personal experience. Earlier today I charged to 100% for the first time in months just in order to see what the actual range is rather than one extrapolated from lower states of charge. Yes, I...

So I’ve been getting a lot of DMs on IG (same handle as here) so I figure I help out the community with an aftermarket mod I did if you have trouble seeing the front edge of your bumper.

So a little short history. I’m really modded and I have an aftermarket carbon fiber front lip on the car. The UP...

A small area of concern was backseat door opening if power failure. Panic situation, safety or just slightly better option then designed by Tesla. I watched a video where a YouTuber said you can’t get out of back seat if power fails. Of course he was wrong. But digging around in a small hole for a s...

So, it has been 1 year with my 2022 Model X Plaid... I had a total of 4 service calls for minor and cosmetic issues. When I took delivery, the car had dents in the front bumper (likely from transportation) and Tesla paid to have it fixed at a body shop. I had 3 additional service calls which were al...

I just finished replacing the cabin air filters on Nick (see sig). Here are some tips:

If you have a car with the screw at the top (2020 or earlier?) of the cabin air filter cover, this is indeed a tricky procedure. Watch YouTube videos on this before you start.

1. If you rarely use the AC, you ma...

Since there can never be too much positive news, I thought I'd write about my experience of buying a new M3P, selling my old MS to Carvana, and the logistics and timeline of the Tesla/Wells Fargo car loan.

If anything, perhaps this will simply serve as an updated data point on what folks should ex...
