    My Model 3 Cleaning Regimen (Takes about 40 mins)

    Wow there's a lot of bad advice in this video. Everything is wrong from the products to the methods, to the swirling motion you use while cleaning your paint. What a disaster.

    Car asks for Key Card tap before drive. Doesn’t work.

    For what it's worth I had a keycard "die". It was very odd. The car cannot see it even after I removed it and tried to add it back. The other one works fine.

    Thoughts on these aerodynamic wheel covers?

    Awful. Please don't do this.

    Stealth Performance is now standard for the P model

    The 20" wheels are very fragile and the ride quality is somewhat reduced.

    A most uncomfortable road trip because...

    Hyundai/Kia are making some of the best cars in the business and they are rich in features. Don't be surprised.

    Model 3 - Left Windshield Wiper Fails to Clean Window

    Mine is fine, but I keep my windows clean and coated with Gyeon Cure. Haven't noticed any problems with spraying or wiping. I guess make sure that water is coming out. It could be that your nozzle is disconnected.

    The biggest surprise I have after two weeks of Model 3

    Don't think of the Tesla doing the driving - think of it assisting driving and making it easier. You still need to be alert.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    That requires that the seat detect that you are in it. This way you can be in the back with the seats folded.

    Effect of Acceleration Boost on insurance rates

    I swear, so many of you people on this forum have either never owned a car or are coming from a Prius or Corolla. Insurance companies don't care if you mod your car or flash it. It's just a model number to them. Do you think they want 1992 Honda Civic owners who put a fart can on their car to...

    Effect of Acceleration Boost on insurance rates

    By your logic would the rates go up for all the other updates they've made available for free which increased the acceleration speeds of various trims of the Model 3? This won't happen and that's not how they do their rates.

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    On my second car (Audi A3), I paid APR $600 to get something like 40 hp and 90lb ft of torque. Not anywhere near as noticeable as this - which I gladly and happily gave Tesla money for. The whiners in these forums are either youths with little car experience (disclaimer - I'm a millennial), or...

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    I got the update and tried it at lunch. It was so violent that I got a bit of a headache. The first words out of my mouth were expletives. I think it's very noticeable. The car also broke traction on all 4 wheels when it took off. Extremely fun.
