    Charge USA model 3 at European supercharger?

    Forgive the noob question, I did try to search for an answer to this. I bought my model 3 in the USA, if it was shipped to europe, what options do I have for supercharging?

    Advice Needed: To sell or not? Leaving country for 14 months

    Hello all, I would greatly appreciate your feedback and opinions. I have a 2015 85D with 20K miles. I am leaving the country for 15 months soon. The car will be garage kept and no one will drive it during this time. Would it make more sense financially to just sell the car and rebuy when I...

    Would a D Model S make it up this hill?

    I've actually never driven in snow, not once. So if the situation ever arises I'd like to know my limits. Turn off the sound, it's on 2x speed and annoying.

    Where to splice in my Blackvue Dash Cam?

    Thank you! I'm going to test this weekend. All the setup articles I read were info overload. I knew there had to be a KISS approach. - - - Updated - - - What would you recommend besides some tightly strung electric tape?

    Where to splice in my Blackvue Dash Cam?

    I'm guessing that free black connector? Anyone know what the wires should be labeled? I was planning to cut open the lighter socket cord the Blackvue shipped with.

    I just got big-timed by a fellow Tesla. 85s can't hang with P85Ds apparently...

    Absolutely don't let this dampen your spirit. Some people buy the P85D solely for speed. They technically aren't energy "converts" and don't value any EV comradery whatsoever. I'm not making a character judgement, more power to them, just recognizing that the P version paints with a broad brush.

    Replay/back option still disabled on Slacker Premium

    For anyone who has upgraded to Slacker Premium, are you able to hit the back button to replay a song? I thought that was one of the main incentives toward upgrading, yet my back button is still disabled.

    Capturing a screenshot. Still a service only thing?

    So we can save screenshots, but can't access them. Anyone found a way to direct these onto usb storage? Or any recommendations to get clear shots of the console screen for publishing articles? The refresh rate is killing the quality of my pics, not to mention the curved distortion of a close up...

    Car & Driver hates Trip Planner

    As a new owner who just completed a 2500 mile road trip, I can say that I definitely don't have "range anxiety" but I do have "destination anxiety". Most of the time I arrived at the supercharger with precisely 2% - 3% battery, which was intentional. However if I wasn't paying close attention to...

    Does your AC blow cold or just cool?

    Switching to recirculate made a significant difference. Starting at LO I found myself clicking the temp up and up over the course of 20 mins until finally settling in at 74. As suggested, turning off auto fan speed helped expedite the process, yet it's rather uncomfortable to manually tweak the...

    What's the deal with all these hotel destination chargers showing on my nav?

    That's the connection I wasn't making. New terminology. For a new owner it's easy to think anything the car suggests is part of the Tesla network and without restrictions.

    What's the deal with all these hotel destination chargers showing on my nav?

    I'm trying to understand why, if I'm traveling and seeking a charge, would Tesla suggest a location that could have a huge stipulation such as - must book a room. ? ! And without an easy way to confirm this without calling each hotel.

    What's the deal with all these hotel destination chargers showing on my nav?

    Why does Tesla suggest all these hotel zoned chargers to me? They are obviously for guests of the hotel only, right? Who owns them, Tesla or the hotel??

    Does your AC blow cold or just cool?

    I'll play with that tomorrow, forgot to check it. - - - Updated - - - Great info there!

    Does your AC blow cold or just cool?

    I'm trying to decide if I should really go by the service center or if my expectations are just too high. My new 85D definitely does not blow COLD air like my BMW did, it's cool enough I guess but in 88+ degree weather it's having to run non-stop to keep the car at 72 degrees. Seems pretty...
