    Spare tire necessary?

    Regarding flats, on a road trip from Ma to FL, near Jacksonville FL. I used the TESLA app and was back on my way in 4 hours. Not much fits in the fronk, I dont think that a bare rim would fit. A tesla tire for the M3 is HUGE. If you do that be sure and chain it down, it could become deadly...

    is there a fix to my window?

    Only one window ? Which one. Does the window on the opposite side have the noise ? From inside, looking out, look around the edge of the glass. Any gaps between glass and rubber gasket ? My brand new 2020 M3 had a noise on drivers side rear window. I could see a gap. I checked out the...

    Poll: Which will come first: Person landing on Mars or U.S. wide level 4 FSD?

    Drivers side window does not seal on high speeds. Anyone else experience this?

    Tesla Theft

    I think that if I were inclined to steal a high end car that has sophisticated, state of the art antitheft, that I would first "borrow" a tow truck, the kind with a flat bed, and just go a grab the car. If you really want to secure your car, you need to lock it up out of sight.

    Annoying sound

    Unplugged mine the second day I had the car. At least the car software doesn't notice and nags you to get service like the prius did.

    Car kicks up dust and dirt on rear: Any solutions?

    Years ago, I had thought that it was static buildup on the plastic that caused the dust to stick. I tried some of the antistatic spray used for clothing. I could not really tell if there was a change in build up or not. However, when the stuff gets wet, it's yucky mess. Don't do it. jp

    How do you deal with cold steering wheel ?

    My 2017 prius prime had a heated steering wheel. It was great. I wish my 2020 model 3 had one. Couple of days ago, the high was 19F Earlier this year I disassembled the steering wheel to determine if there was a 12 volt source suitable for an aftermarket add on. I didn't see anything that...
