In my opinion, if you like both vehicles, the biggest factor is how far you plan to drive in a given trip. If you're staying within range, will almost always be charging at home and if you have another LONG range vehicle... then I would say go with whichever car you find more enjoyable when...

I think phantom braking is now more or less a non-issue. When they first made the switch to vision-only, there were some growing pains and it seemed that phantom braking had gotten worse. I had phantom braking in certain places when I first got my car... but over the past year or so, I haven't...

I live in the land of ice and snow so a good set of tires for the winter is an absolute must for me. I used to always swap wheel/tire for my winter setup but it's always a hassle and invariably leave on my winter tires longer than I should... When I consider the cost of new rubber + new wheels...

I have a full wrap of XPEL stealth PPF. At the very least the lower back corner of each of the passenger doors gets absolutely dinged up by road debris. Front mudflaps and PPF in those sections are a must IMO. Similarly the front gets lots of rock chips over time (as with any car really). I...

I'm on Vredestein Quatrac Pros. Technically they're a Grand Touring All Weather tire but I find them just fine in terms of performance for regular road usage. The reason I got them was for their wet/snow performance. They are 3 snowflake rated. For a relatively lower cost tire (or any cost...

hrmmm... is your car running?... ....better go catch it! (i'll see myself out)

Definitely not normal. That said, its just a rubber mat laying on the bottom. Lift it up and reposition and youre good to go.

uggg I had this issue. They had to order new seats and reinstall. Still have a lingering issue where if anyone sits in the center seat, you can hear the motors continuously try to latch. The motors will randomly try to actuate every 1-5 seconds... No warnings anymore and seat seems solid but...

Not sure if this is the exact same thing but has anyone with this issue tried to simply open the tesla app again on their phone? I've noticed that if for whatever reason my tesla app closes, it shows I'm connected via bluetooth to the car but the key won't work because the tesla app isn't...

I believe they removed the feature due to the window "recall". Of course, I never had any issues with my windows prior to the "fix" and now after the update, my windows automatically roll back down every other time thanks to "Phantom Limbs" in the window...

Just FYI in case anyone was looking to put on new tires before the weather starts getting colder (at least up here in the north anyways)... Verdestein Quatrac Pros in the OEM size for 20" inductions (255/40R20) are now back in stock at tirerack as of today. I've had them on backorder for months...

I know you're asking for pics but I don't have my car nearby at the moment. From what I have seen, the passenger windows comes stock around 20-25% VLT. I think most SUV's and minivans will have stock rear windows anywhere from 20-50%. 70% looks clear just like stock front windows/windshield -...

I've got 14k miles with PPF, flaps, and ceramic coating. No paint issues on the door though the plastic trim underneath is definitely sandblasted so I would have had the same issues as everyone else here if I didn't get the paint protection on from the start.

As I recall, there was another similar thread recently where someone was having issues with the doors closing and misalignments. The fix was for a mobile tech to come out and adjust the striker plate on the door. It realigned the doors properly and consequentially the door was easier to open/close.
