Hey guys, I lent my car to my dad while i was overseas, and now the car pulls to the right, do I need to get Tesla service to do the alignment, or can I go to the local tyre shop? I know there's a software alignment in the service menu, and I'm wondering if tyre places tent to have the lifting...

Hi guys, just a heads up, highlands are live now for January delivery on Tesla website. It looks like slight range increases, only RWD and LR for sale, slight price increases and slight styling redesigns inside and out. Nothing to compel me to swap over...

That's some whacky logic. Those markets are sated, they've had the S and X on sale continuously since 2012. RHD markets haven't had an S or X since Nov 2020, and there was likely plenty of pent up demand. I'm not sure why there is a hardcore element strongly defending an accountant's bad decision.

You haven't seen one in real life. My old man had a Model S facelift since the end of 2016. I've driven it countless times. To say there is an aesthetic difference is splitting hairs when you see them in real life. There's no way anyone could tell them apart when driving by in real life.

Have you seen one in real life? The difference is indistinguishable.

Having had a good look inside and out of a Plaid Model S two weeks ago at Goodwood, I can tell you chrome delete aside, the Plaid is indistinguishable from the old S. If the widebody kit adds an inch, you can't see it.

She was senior executive at Telstra. Have you ever dealt with Telstra? It's a disaster of a company, that trades solely on having the best mobile infrastructure. I would question the effectiveness of any executive of that company (and Australia Post). Without a doubt the two worst major...

The fact that they didn't engineer it with dual controls from the outset does not bode well, given Tesla's history. Other full size trucks are not made natively in RHD either.

Accountant's decisions are not always good business decisions.

Hey guys, bad news, but these pictures of the Cybertruck body have emerged, including the front firewall. Like the updated S and X, there is only one steering column throughput whole. They could engineer a new stamp for RHD markets, but they didn't bother with the updated S and X, and the...

You've got to be pretty stupid if you believe an auto company executive telling you that people drive on different sides of the road as a form of protectionism. People have been using the left of the road since Roman times. 'Driving' on the left and right predates auto manufacturers by thousands...

It's all good until you turn up at the broken Charge fox and realise that's why you originally bought a Tesla.

I would say that the entire EQE range isn't competitive on price when you take into account real world range and performance. But I guess in Australia we're no extremely limited for good premium EVs. The Y and 3 have pretty crappy interiors, but I'd argue that as a car the Model Y performance...

Classic Australian forum post: make up unverifiable facts.

Government complaint? I'll just get Tesla to service it
