Thanks and good to know. Is that including Tax, or plus tax?

Has anyone purchased the Tesla model 3 standard, then upgraded at a later time to standard plus? If so, a couple of queries: 1) what was the additional cost? 2) did that include autopilot? 3) was there an option to NOT have autopilot when upgrading? Thanks.

Let us know progress on your replies. I too have emailed Sandoval, as he was the author of this bill. I was going to wait to hear back in a few days before more letters come out.

Has Tesla Headquarters been notified on this proposal, and if so, are they willing to support a letter-writing campaign against it? What I have learned is politicians have a higher chance of listening to their constituents via letters. I did not buy a Tesla with the objective (among many) to...

I just had an interesting conversation with the Tesla support team. The question I posed was this: Since the Tesla Model 3 standard is identical to the Standard Plus with software locks, namely battery capacity, if you set your charging capabilities to 100% on the App or on the car, are you...

Is there an official/unofficial count somewhere of how many standards are on the road? Probably find out next quarter in Tesla finances, but it would be interesting to know.

Who here owns (and has in their possession and is driving it) a Tesla Model 3 Standard? Not the Plus edition, just the standard $35,000 version. I am curious to note how many people stuck to their reservation and were not lured in by the shiny upgrades of the Plus edition. We managed to order...

Yes the probability of getting into some kind of accident increases exponentially the more you drive. Based on our previous driving records on our car we used to have, we have had 1 accident where it was our fault over a 15 year ownership period - car slid into the curb during snow storm, bent...

Living in a big city, there is always the discussion of whether you drive or take public transport (train, bus, etc.) Usually the public transport is the cheapest, fastest way (if it is the train) way to get into your place of work... not any more. If you live in Chicago neighborhoods and work...
