I'm still on 2017.50.12 b707518 and the speed sensitive volume option is there. This is an example of the clunky UI in the Model 3 - to access the control: 1) Fully expand the Music player window by tapping the arrrow in the upper right corner two times 2) Tap on the Equalizer control button...

I have a USB stick in this and it works https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JX1ZS5O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I can charge two iPhones and play USB music in my Model 3. I haven't done any testing to see what the charge rate is at when the USB port adaptor is plugged in, but...

I agree with your assessment based on my experience in my Model X over 30,000+ miles logged on it. However, in the Model 3 manual, this is what it says: ===================================== 'Adjust your following distance To adjust the following distance you want to maintain between Model 3...

I believe the numbers on the following distance setting are supposed to approximately correspond to the number of seconds of space between you and the car in front of you, so it does adjust based on speed. At setting '1' that should be about a one second distance gap based on the speed you're...

I haven't seen anyone mention this so I thought I would post my observations on the Model 3 TAC/Autopilot touchscreen controls. When the touchscreen shows a speed limit sign, if you tap on the sign in the touchscreen display, the TAC speed will adjust to the speed limit on the sign (plus any...

I received my Model 3 this week and finally had an opportunity to take an extended drive in it and listen to the Audio system. For a frame of reference, I have a Model S with the top tier Reus audio package (2 subs, amps, new tweeters, center tweeter mounted behind the rear view mirror) and a...

Financed my Model 3 today with Tesla. Received a 2.99% loan for 72 months ($53,000 financed). Loan provider is US Bank for my loan thru Tesla. I looked around a bit and was seeing local bank and credit union rates around 3.45% to 3.99% with the recent rise in rates.

Yes! I was quite surprised. I was expecting about a month. My theory is that Tesla had sent the car up here and either someone ended up not taking it or that Tesla is stockpiling cars on their best guess of what models will be popular. Maybe the 18 inch aero wheels with a loaded package in...

FYI - Configured car on January 11th. Pickup scheduled for tomorrow (January the 17th). Vin 2754 - Midnight Silver, with 18inch aero wheels. Bellevue, WA delivery center.

Here is some more data for everyone to kick around. I received my invite this morning to configure my M3. As recently as yesterday, my page was saying that dual motor delivery for me could be expected to be July-Sept 2018. Now on my live config page it says Dual Motor in Spring of 18. It...

My quick answer is a yay. My wife would like us to move there from Redmond, but the commute would be a bit too much for my job, so we stay put.

These are the Tesla 'Urban' Superchargers. They are marginally slower than the version of the Supercharger that is primarily deployed right now. The difference is that each Urban Superchargers provide a dedicated amount of power to each car that is not impacted by another car charging on the...

I noticed on the Tesla Supercharging map that there is a proposed location for Kirkland, WA - Totem Lake, that is to be installed by the end of 2018. I have a strong suspicion it will be at The Village at Totem Lake - the new shopping area that is going in where the old Totem Lake Mall was. It...

FYI - I have a Sig Red P85+ With parking sensors, power folding mirrors, tire pressure sensors that display PSI on the instrument cluster, LTE, Sig Red paint and Sig white interior. Jerome helped me get it modified and I am so grateful. It is an awesome setup.

Wow, that's amazing how fast it went up. I was at the Angle of the Winds on Wednesday, June 7th - 12 days ago) and there was no sign of any construction. Maybe I missed it, but I drove right next to that area of the parking lot and I think I would have noticed it. BTW - the pub they have in...
