    120v Extension Cord Charging

    Okay thank again everyone! So far I am able to live without at-home charging, but am still contemplating a cord. Since I’ll need a full 50 feet I will go with a 10 gauge if I do decide to get it. Also I loved the slightly tangential EMF/heat discussion and I learned a bit!

    120v Extension Cord Charging

    Thanks for all the responses everyone! I ended up buying the Tesla mats, which they had in stock at the pick-up location. Still looking into wraps vs ppf, and might do a protective seal on the windshield! I picked up my car on Tuesday and absolutely love it! Thanks for all the positive wishes :)

    Top Tips

    Hi all! I am picking up my Model 3 tomorrow, and am hoping I can get some advice on the top things to do early on after purchasing. If anyone has any "I wish I'd been told..." kind of thing, I'd love to hear it! Some things I am considering: 1. I live in Vancouver, a city where a lot of salt...
