    Windshield Wiper Sensitivity Settings

    I know it sounds like manual but it’s not hard to implement. Keep the auto settings, but allow the driver to select varying amounts of intensity like every other car out there with rain-sensitive wipers.

    Windshield Wiper Sensitivity Settings

    Throughout my experience, I have owned a variety of vehicles equipped with automatic rain sensing wipers. While this feature proves useful during inconsistent rainfall, I have noticed that in the Tesla, the wipers tend to act erratically. It is quite bothersome when the auto wipers switch to a...

    What do ya'll do with washer fluid when traveling to a sub freezing area for a trip?

    There are additives you can to add to your existing washer fluid to lower the freezing temperature. Unfortunately, California regulators prevent us from getting the good stuff. Also, if nothing else you can use some IPA in the washer fluid to prevent it from freezing.

    8.16 kW DC Solar Panels but never generating more 6.5kW

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Nice man! I drove mine similar distance to get PPF installed and some idiot weaving in and out of traffic cut it close and kicked rocks on the paint. Got a decent chip on the hood. I’m getting full front PPF, Xpel window tint, and Exoshield on the windshield.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Maybe this has been mentioned before, but I noticed the brake lights and turn signals are different than the previous Model 3.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    That would be nice! I did have to acknowledge some recent changes about vision only but that’s about it.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    That will be on you when you file your taxes next year for 2023. Eventually it should move be an instant credit at the time of sale for new and used but the IRS is still working out the kinks.

    With people on a waitlist, it makes me question Are these cars that someone rejected or cancelled orders?

    Black with white interior

    I ordered the Black/White Model 3 Performance I went back or forth black vs the blue. I hate they charge $1500 for basic black when metallic and pearl colors are less or free!
