    Tech Improvements Unveiled on Battery Day

    I love my 2018 Model 3 AWD and was thinking about buying a Model Y for my wife next year. But now with all the improvements coming up, we are going to delay our next Tesla purchase. If we wait a year or two we can get a much better Model Y for the same $63K. In the meantime, my wife will keep...

    2000 Mile Roadtrip from LA to Colorado. First long road trip (Pics)

    Great report! Wondering what's the spec of your car and how many miles per kWh did you get during this trip? I have a late 2018 LR AWD. When it was new it used to show 310 miles when fully charged. Now it shows 282. I don't know if that is good, bad or as expected.

    Blog Tesla Will Move HQ Out of California After Fight Against Health Order

    It is just a threat. If Tesla moves out of CA then 75% of it's top scientists and engineers will leave Tesla and start their new startup in Silicon Valley. Texas is for dirty oil industry. They won't even let their residents buy a Tesla.

    Best Car Insurance for New Model 3?

    Ameriprice is cheapest for me for full (may be excessive) coverage. Paying $70/m for M3 AWD EAP. Tesla quote for the exact same coverage was $116/m.

    I think I just wasted $7,000 on FSD?

    I paid $3000 for EAP and I am perfectly happy with that. I use autopilot and driver initiated auto lane change a lot during long highway drives. But I find autopilot to be dangerous on construction zone lane shift. So you always have to be alert and don't over-trust your car. I almost never use...

    MASTER THREAD: V 2019.40.1.1 170kW charging, Neural Net for Auto Wipers, Auto Lane Change quicker

    I am really loving the better wiper function and faster lane change since I got 2019.40.1 few days ago. It is raining on and off here in Northern California so the wiper update timing is perfect!

    Premium Connectivity cost $9.99/month for many Model 3 versions

    As a long term TSLA investor (since mid 2013), I gladly welcome this change. It will keep the company healthy and the customers are getting a pretty good deal.

    Considering Solar System from Tesla

    My experience has been very different. My system was installed exactly a month after I submitted the signed contract online and then the system was turned on about two week later after receiving all the clearances from my city and PG&E. All my communications with Tesla has been very positive. I...

    Considering Solar System from Tesla

    My system was recently installed and similar to yours except that my inverter is SolarEdge. SolarEdge inverters that Tesla installs has higher efficiency and better market reputation. Install the inverter inside your garage if you can. That way it will probably last longer. Make sure that Tesla...

    Which panels are now offered by Tesla?

    I had a choice to pick Hanwha or Panasonic cells for the same online price. Panasonic cells have higher efficiency but the all black Hanwha cells looks nicer on my roof. Also, Tesla was not offering side skirts for Panasonic cells when my system was installed later last month. So I went for...

    Tesla App and SolarEdge Inverter

    No, I haven't ask yet. As I mentioned, it is not a big deal for me as I have a physical picture reference of all the panels. I was not getting 'consumption' details on my SolarEdge account and Tesla has identified an issue with the Powerblaster setup. So they are coming next week to fix that...

    Tesla App and SolarEdge Inverter

    Yes. For me the Tesla all always shows about 0.01% less than SolarEdge reading.

    Tesla App and SolarEdge Inverter

    I just called the Tesla Solar technical support line at 877-961-7652. If you haven't got PTO yet then I would suggest waiting atleast a week after PTO before calling Tesla. If you ask now your request most likely will be rejected.
