We purchased a 12/2018 3MR with Autopilot for $2000 option. We are retired and don't need a car for work commute. Over the last 30 months we average 1000-1200 miles per month. That's about 40 miles per day. I understand that most people people would opt for a 3LR because they pout on way...

I have a 12/18 build 3MR with about 7K miles on it. I still get a full 264 mile range. I charge it every night to 70 - 80% depending how I will use it the next day. I charge to 100% once a month (and start discharging it within an hour of reaching that SOC) and discharge to <20% once a month...

This is not a good solution. My wife and I share a single Smartphone. How will the car determine which of us in the driver's seat? We just manually select the appropriate profile when required.

I am perfectly happy with my wipers in "auto" mode in every rain situation (and as a result of Global Warming we have been getting a lot - above normal - rain in SoCal recently). They work great. YMMV.

Oh, I appreciated his sarcasm, you just missed my humorous repertoire retort (but he didn't). I hear you, I waited 994 days for mine. It started driving me crazier during the wait. But now that I have it, I am sane again.

Yep, you are right (just ask my wife), I'm a moron and enjoying every minute driving my white on white 3MR.

What The Frunk, 10 of you? If you believe Seeking Alpha, it is because Tesla is on the verge of BANWUPTCY! :D

I have had my white on white 3MR for 5 months now. Sometimes I still get up in the middle of the night and just go and sit in it. The color combination is stunning. I have had zero problems with the car. I waited 994 days to get my car. It was worth it! I would do it all over again.

I have Solar City panels on my red clay barrel tile roof. They were installed over three years ago. Absolutely no leaks in the roof and no rodents living under them. They are invisible where Tesla installed them. They generate all my electrical needs including car charging each night. I no...

A tip? Get in the car immediately and drive it like you stole it. You have no idea how your life is going to be changed by this car.

I have had this issue only occasionally and very briefly - maybe no more than 5 seconds at a time and then back to normal without any re-boot. I have had 8.5 through 12.1.2. I have never re-booted my car for any reason.

Is that my car in my avatar? Yes and No. The picture in my avatar is one of the original Tesla test cars driving someplace, I don't know where. I asked a TMC friend of mine who has Photoshop skills to modify that picture to the way I wanted my car, as I waited another year to get my 3MR. I...

My advice is to ignore the delivery date. Someone will contact you when you don't show up.

What is ironic is that the ALFA is Motor Trends "2018 Car of the Year." Let's see what the "car of the year" has to offer: - unreliability - frequent visits to the stealership for repairs - 19 mpg avg fuel economy - 290 mile observed range - $1340 service - $757 normal wear - $1534 damage and...

The issue is I may be passing a truck that is going 65 (in a 65 zone (55 for trucks)) and I am going 70 and somebody who is going 85 comes up behind me, flashing their light for me to move over, and then when I do, the flip me off as they pass me and then complain about slow drivers on TMC.
