I was last here about a month ago. Similar to most of the stops on I-25 from here all the way to El Paso - little to no grass and lots of 'goat head' thorns. My dog won't get out of the car at this stop anymore since he stepped on one here before. Wishful thinking that these stops could be...

Got my HW3 upgrade July 1-3. Initial appt was pushed 1 week due to inventory issues. Gave me a $400 uber credit valid for 63hrs (w/o me asking) as they couldn't promise same day service (appt was @ 10am). I was under the impression that it would be a fairly quick turnaround b/c they offered a...

I have a pretty small garage off a narrow alley. I'm only able to back in from one direction (and leave that same direction) which works well enough. I'm able to keep my mirrors unfolded to enter/exit but need them folded to comfortably walk around the car in the garage. I also can't walk...

Thanks for posting this, btw. I'd been checking back every week or so but it was always out of stock. I added a google alert (Google Alerts - Monitor the Web for interesting new content) for 'tesla model 3 roof rack' about a month ago for daily alerts. I got the alert for pointing to this...

I do 8 and 4 mostly and sometimes 10 and 2, but i've learned that 10 and 2 is no longer suggested/taught due to air bags. All I know is that my normal grip i've used for over 20 years isn't sufficient to avoid EAP nags most of the time.

Great tip, thanks! I only said 'squeeze' as a simplification of the methods tried as i've driven over 2,000 miles with it the past week. Include torque forces in my methods used which also contribute to hand pain over time. Sometimes I managed to find the right positions that worked for...

2018.42.4 here. I just finished reading this thread and wanted to share my experience. I just completed my 2nd long distance trip last weekend. Denver to Minneapolis and back. I updated to 42.4 the day before my trip. The drive to Minneapolis was pretty poor conditions - cold and rainy. I'd...

anyone have strong opinions regarding the front license plate holder? one of the tesla techs walked by when my demo was happening at the frunk and mentioned the existence of 3rd party front brackets that don't adhere to the front bumper. I've done cursory searches and found 4 contenders...

Well, I finally drove her off the lot little after 10p tonight. 9hrs there, mostly due to the paperwork changes. After chatting with a number of employees during the wait, it seems the deal I got was unheard of in their experience so far. Extenuating circumstances, similar car availability...

Been here in Littleton for 5.5 hrs now (minus a round trip Uber to home and back on their dime). Rollercoaster! Miscommunication between the people who prep the cars and the guy who told me to come in a day early to get my car. When I returned a little before 5p I was told that my car's bumper...

Surprisingly, not really. this was around 6p. there were 2 people at the entrance - one of which took my papers and had me park to left near Jaguar and I met him inside. There were <10 customers inside. Could have been because it was a Monday? They're closed Sundays and had lots of...

I went to the Littleton delivery center earlier this evening to settle a few things regarding my 3rd party lender. My appt was Weds @ 1p. They confirmed my car was there and offered to change my appt to tomorrow @ 1p instead. I mentioned that I feel comfortable sending in my ACH tonight then...

Just got a call. Bumped again. Original delivery date 9/11. They called 9/10 to delay until 9/22, I couldn't do it until 9/24. My assigned VIN disappeared. Last night, my VIN reappeared - same one as before. They called today, 9/18 to delay until 9/26. The VIN disappeared again. Only 2...

So bizarre. I also have 800+ credit score. Tesla/Chase (interesting they use multiple banks) gave me 3.59% for the same duration. Oddly, USAA gave me 3.84% for 72mo and the loan will only be for 35k (i'm putting down a cash deposit). Lightstream still hasn't replied to my rate-beat request...
