    I can’t believe I never noticed...

    And, when the brakes are engaged, they show reflected red light on the ground of the animation.

    Autopilot dangerously reducing speed on highways

    Has there been construction there within the last 6 months to a year? There is a stretch of highway near me that had construction and a temporarily reduced speed limit and for the last 6 months (since the construction ended) my car slows down there from 60mph to 50mph. I don't know that the...

    Slacker Invalid Tesla Credentials

    As far back as I can remember Slacker was part of the Premium Connectivity package which was always only 1 year free.

    Can a referral code be added after ordering

    I'm not sure why people always fall back on the "do the right thing" argument. From Tesla's view they have no way of knowing if the buyer really was influenced in their decision by the person with the referral or if they are simply trying to add it after the fact once they realize they could...

    Any Freebies or Discounts to Owners?

    Just as an FYI ..... none of the stuff you got from Mercedes was "free" ....

    Can't get app access for my wife

    Have your wife set up her account before you ask to add her to the car. When I added my wife I had her set up her own Tesla account first. Then contacted Tesla and asked them to grant her account access to the car. I sent them her account email, my account email, and the VIN. They asked for...

    Just do the math

    If the last thing it tells you is that you're 20" away why not just guesstimate another foot or so of travel and call it good? How finely are you trying to judge it when you're pulling into a parking spot? Are the parking spots you're using that small that you need every inch?

    Couple of questions after placing order for Tesla 3 LR AWD

    I believe you need either a cashiers check or to pay in advance with a wire transfer. What finance stuff? Are you financing through them? If not, and everything is in order, there is no need for them to contact you. I've no idea. In Ohio though, you could just show up with plates and stick...

    How to use the turn signals well?

    3 If it stops blinking automatically why does the physical location of the stalk matter? What physical feedback are you looking for? Do you check it to make sure the blinkers are off? It's not dumb, it's just one way of doing it. Other manufacturers do it differently, no big deal. I don't think...

    How do I know if I have the newer, powerful chips in my computer?

    I do not understand the constant fretting over the updated hardware... Why do you care? Unless you have FSD it doesn't matter, and if you do have FSD you'll get the new hardware anyway.

    Interior cleaning wipes

    That's actually what I'm leaning towards. Not too harsh and pretty inexpensive. For harder to clean stuff I can use something stronger as needed.

    Interior cleaning wipes

    I was worried that Clorox, or similar, wipes would be too harsh to use on a regular basis. How long have you been using them?

    Interior cleaning wipes

    Cool. Do they work well on other parts of the car as well? Like the center console and dashboard. I've got a couple of towels too but they aren't always the best for newfy slobber.

    Interior cleaning wipes

    What, if anything, does everyone carry around in their car to clean things like the seats, dash, armrest, etc.? I often have my dog in the car with me and he drools quite a bit. I can't always get to it to clean it up before it dries so I'd like to have some sort of wipes in the car for these...

    Stock Front Bumper Plastic Wrap/Protection?

    If it's that noticeable then perhaps it was supposed to be removed when the car was prepped for delivery? True PPF should be pretty much invisible, unless you get a partial hood or something where there is a definite line.
