    Wider tires on stock 21s? 255/35/21 and 275/35/21

    To add my two cents here I’m running 255/35R21 on the front and 275/35R21 on the rear. 2020 MSP. No issues, perhaps some minor rubbing during very tight turns on the front. Besides extra curb rash protection, the other advantage of the wider tires is they are the OE spec tire that’s on the MYP...

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    Concur. Plaid mode never gets old for me… whomever I gets it old for is perhaps just old in spirit themselves. Use it every single day. But lightly used goodyear all seasons for the thing at ridiculously cheap prices and let it rip!

    Insane repair estimate for 2015 MS

    On a 2015, that just isn’t worth it. That’s over half the value of the car. Just live with the clunk. Probably just a loose part.

    Replacement for Model S/X?

    Bravo! Hopefully it will shut the blowhard up for a day or two.

    No intermittent wipers or cruise control with update?

    Yes, agree seems like I lost my intermittent wipers also.

    Real life experience with Xcelerate warranty?

    First of all I wanna say upfront I’m not affiliated with XCare at all. I recently paid $5068 for a 10 year 125k mile warranty on my MSP 2020 with a $100 deductible. That’s only $1.38 per day. My previous car was a nice GM car and I put about $5000 of maintenance on that over a 10 year span. And...

    Real life experience with Xcelerate warranty?

    I think setting the deductible to $100 will save you more than a few bucks. Also, I believe there’s a 5000 mile bracket for pre-existing mileage so be wary of that. You can pay for it using your credit card, so may be a few point rewards on that? Finally, I think prices increase at the...

    2018 P100D vs 2019 Performance (raven) which to buy?

    I’ll be the 7th one to say definitely get a Raven, and the second one to suggest that the lack of prepaid FSD is not a reason to reject a car. I think other considerations should be what color do you personally want? White is a lot easier to keep looking good than black. Also I would recommend...

    Floor mats suggestions

    Just get the 3D Kagu, not really sure if anybody mentioned it, but it’s extremely easy to clean, has great wraparound features to retain spills or water, and will even look great in 19 seconds by shooting some interior cleaner on it and wiping. If you don’t like the logo—and I did not—take a...

    Maximum battery charge level reduced - warranty about to expire

    I agree with this… I would do absolutely everything I could to get that car in before the warranty expires. Call the service center directly, plead with them on the phone. Tell them your situation. And as a last resort, take the car in and make a service center rep come out and take a look at it.

    PPF or not PPF

    The real deal is to get a USED car with PPF. Any aftermarket mods, such as this, really does not affect bluebook value. So then you’re not even really paying for it.

    Class action for Model S drive unit failure?

    What year and trim do you have? And when you say catastrophic failure, what happened specifically? Strongly considering Xcare based on these DU failures alone!

    Not Available 2020 Tesla Model S Performance w/ Ludicrous+ [Deleted]

    Wow, you really rode this thing down in value. Hope you enjoyed your summer with it. Should’ve taken my offer in the spring. Good price now though. Good luck with sale.

    Valuing my model s

    With all due respect it’s not a scam, it’s called capitalism and free markets. What you are proposing would be price controls or even communism. Kinda like people that loose money when a stock falls. There never was any implicit guarantee or promise that these cars would hold a certain value...

    Looking for my first Model S :D

    Yes you’re right, permanent magnet motor on the front. To the OP: there’s a 2019 S Performance in black in the classifieds for 56K probably could be had for close to 50 K. (No affiliation with seller)
