This isn't available in the car's UI, but TeslaFi logs your max and average speeds on every drive, which you can pull up in a web browser. Not sure if that would stand up in court, but is interesting info. I think you can download the TeslaFi telemetry by minute, and could draw a graph of your...

You can do scheduled wake using a 3rd party app like TeslaFi -- it also allows geo fencing and knows whether the car is plugged in to give you more control. I would like to see this implemented by Tesla in the car's UI and app, though.

I bought a set of Blizzak LM001 performance snows from TiresPlus (owned by Bridgestone / Firestone) and had them mounted on my Aero rims. I had some concerns about lifting the car, so printed the manual page on how to jack up the car, and explained to the manager that if they jack it...

Maybe try cleaning the rear camera lens (I put RainX on mine to help keep it clear) and check if there's any dirt or anything clogging up the rear infrasonic sensors?

I have had mine since July, and have never had that happen.

Works great for me for navigation....just push in the right steering wheel roller and say "navigate to _____"...does a good job with addresses or even business names. Much better than the voice Nav in our two Volvos (which has never worked right for me).

TeslaFi will track automatically (as described above)...but only from the time you start using the service.

You can also schedule the climate control and many other activities using TeslaFi.

The touch up paint from the Tesla online store was on backorder when I checked last week (at least for blue)...but it is just a Tesla branded version of the kit from Dr. Colorchip. So, I ordered directly from Dr. Colorchip, and the paint matched perfectly. I had one tiny chip (which was my...

I must have gotten the last ones?

Ordered Maxpiders from CARiD.com...they were in stock as of last night...and say they are shipping today. They were $205 for front and back...customer service guy (online chat) gave me 3% off. Free shipping and no sales tax, so I got them for like $199 shipped. Got tired of waiting for...

It also works with the left scroll wheel (volume knob).

Do you have the FSD package? Is it possible that's a requirement?

If you read through the thread linked above it claims that Tesla started using Slacker in the US in September 2013...which puts them at 5 years at the end of the month...interesting round number for an exclusivity agreement to end? Slacker is okay, but as a Spotify Premium Family subscriber, I...

The Model 3 also has an "Easy Entry" setting...you set it up like another seat profile, and it will go back to that setting when you put it in park and the driver's belt is unbuckled. You can find it in the manual under "driver profiles".
