Import was perfectly fine as per the initial post. Problem arise basically when I tried to homogenize the car to function the same as one sold in the States at first place.

hmmm...this is making me doubt when Tesla told me they've done this all the time. :confused:

Wonder if anyone has done or know the process of move a Tesla from Canada to U.S. I purchased my 3 in canada and recently moved to live permanently in U.S. All the government work related work was straight forward. Got compliance letter from Tesla. CBP import was done in like 5minutes...

I know it's less and less of thing as there are more tesla's on the road nowadays. It used to be that we wave at each other. I noticed while driving here on the road of Seattle, with my front plate one, only the guys/gals also have theirs on will wave at me. :D

I'm new in town with a Model 3. Just got my WA state plate. Of all the 3 I see in town, most do not have a front plate. I know the law but wonder if I should help the scene by taken off my front bracket and plate.

No, it's not. I took off the rear already. I got so many people on the road pass me and turn their heads around and look at the front hood to figure out what car it is. I almost feel obligated to have something in the front, LOL

hmmm... That's giving me ideas. I can airbrush it to any color I like...what could it be....

I got it here T Badge for Tesla (White)

I like your wheels

Just re-applied PPF on hood I'm now facing the choice of leaving it as is without badge or put on a white badge. The white badge stands out more than I thought it would. I'm going for a stealth look. What you guys think?

For all you guys suggesting OP to wait until he can afford, you are missing the point he described regarding Canadian federal EV rebate. So it's not only the price difference between SR+ and LR but also the rebate.

Sounds like you and OP can share an ChaDeMo adepter. :)

Agree. Not an easy decision to make. Without the ability to charge at home, your EV experience on those 72 long commute days won't be as pleased... You would start the day rushing to Nanaimo SC and hope there are less than 4 cars charging there. On the way back home, you will probably want to...

I think you will be able to make the 300+km trip, assume: 1. charge to at least 90% 2. try stick to 100km/hr or under. I remember speed limit there is 90 3. charge to 100% if you need to use heat in winter I think this is actually a case where the Chademo adapter could be useful. There are...
