    How to charge my phone wirelessly?

    My new M3 with the wireless charging built in won’t charge my smaller iPhone 8... I put it on the pad, screen lights up and shows the charging icon.. then within 30-60 seconds screen lights up again to show it stopped... My wife’s larger iPhone 8 Plus charges perfectly. If I leave the smaller 8...

    Switched order from Y to 3 - saving $3900 so happy

    I test drove both the Y and Performance 3... the 3 felt lighter and more nimble. You gain the bigger trunk space and some legroom in the second row with Y but for us that would be used maybe 2-3 times a year. We went P3.

    Trade-In Values Plummet

    So. I did an We’ll Buy Your Car - Sell My Car | AutoNation online trade-in estimate and they sent an offer of $25,500 vs Tesla's trade-in offer of $19,000.... Offer is good for a week. Suggests that Tesla's current trade-in values do NOT represent current market value or conditions. Pays to...

    Roof Cargo Box Suggestions

    I've ordered my Model 3... and the Tesla roof rack, now researching which roof cargo to buy. Suggestions welcome. What I want in a cargo box is: Low Profile - I don't like the look of a tall box and don't really need the added storage space bigger provides. Not Too Long - I want a box that...

    Trade-In Values Plummet

    This is interesting. https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2020/05/11/used-car-prices-coronavirus-covid-19-car-deals/3107201001/ The biggest decline was for used Tesla 3 electric cars: 71.5% sold in 30 days in February. Just 47.4% did in March, a decline of 24.2 percentage points.

    Trade-In Values Plummet

    My guess is the resellers have enough inventory for the short term so why take more unless it’s a great deal/profit setup. But I’d also guess that similar to the housing market, both supply and demand are down... I’ll probably list mine on autotrader and see if I can get closer to the value...

    Trade-In Values Plummet

    Hey I get the used car market is dropping but this was pretty severe... The car I'm trading for those who asked is a 2019 Mercedes GLA 4matic / 9k miles. Grey with white interior... super nice/cute car just not a Tesla :).

    Switched Order From Y to 3, lost $100

    Akikiki I understand contracts and agreements so you can stop reposting the legal terms. that's just silly. Do I have a legal right to have the $100 transfer to the new Model 3 order? No. Is it really bad business practice for Telsa to not transfer it if the six month delay is excessive and...

    Switched Order From Y to 3, lost $100

    Went to test drive the Model Y this week in Superior CO.... they quoted a wait time for my order (already a month old) as 6+ months and encourage us to consider the Model 3. We agreed to switch to the 3, but they refused to transfer the $100 order deposit. The excuse "Our systems can't do...

    Trade-In Values Plummet

    Got a trade-in quote 5 weeks ago.... $24k... waited to order and had the trade-in quote updated, now $19k...! Me thinks Tesla 'might' be taking advantage of the situation, or simply doesn't want to deal with trade-ins.
