    Hear me out: New pricing strategy for AP/FSD

    Is the only problem you can see with this model the fact that it's different? Other cars may all run on software, but how many allow you to add software over-the-air after purchase? I'd argue that if you can add it later, that makes it a lot different than a "built-in" feature like cruise...

    Hear me out: New pricing strategy for AP/FSD

    I'd like to make the case that the current pricing model for Autopilot and FSD needs to change fundamentally from the current paradigm of the software being considered part of the car - transferring with the car upon sale - to a model more like personal computer software (licensed to the user...

    Ordered a Model 3 by accident...

    Leave the country! In all seriousness, if you don't want the car call Tesla ASAP and let them know what happened.

    The new fantasy sales framework will fail

    Of course I'm not privy to all the reasons they decided to make this change, but the first thing that came to my mind is that they currently spend (waste?) a lot of energy going toe to toe with state governments and the dealership cartels to be able to sell in various states. They're often...

    Full Tax Credit Pointless

    I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that you bought the car in September because you thought it was a good deal at the time, and now you're upset that others are getting the equivalent good deal now? You'd rather everyone pay more so you can feel you got an advantage? Seems you did get...

    So tell me about a model 3 without EAP. What will it still do.

    Not sure why someone so concerned with succinctness chooses to answer already-answered questions. ;)

    Weird Locked Car Situation

    If she accidentally swiped to switch cars, it's fairly likely she also hit the lock icon. I'd guess the latter is easier to do by mistake than the former.

    Model S Impressions After 3

    We've recently swapped our Ss for 3s and here is how it compares for me so far: The 3 has better forward and side visibility than the S, and generally feels less closed-in, however the rear visibility in the 3 is actually more limited. The rear window (or rear suspension?) seems too high, or...

    Tesla moments

    When I first got my MS we were getting out of it and someone said, "You know, those things explode." Without missing a beat my husband grinned and said, "You know, your car exploded the whole way here." I love him.

    Light/Cream Headliner

    Two years in (today!) and my light headliner still looks absolutely perfect. Mind you, I don't drive with the windows down much and my kids are teens, but I've been impressed with how well spots have come out. Once someone at the car wash (?!) left a dark hand print on the headliner just...

    My energy use is suddenly off the graph

    I had this same issue happen last summer. One day I got in the car and when looking at the energy graph for the previous 30 miles it reported several long (3+ mile) stretches of >900Kwh usage. My previous trip had been an uneventful run to the grocery store. I always read the graphs, I just...

    Connection issues again

    I have no idea if this will be helpful, but worth a shot: Both my husband's car and mine were having connectivity problems ongoing for weeks. I kept checking the forums thinking that a lot of other people must be experiencing the same thing, (Remote S would return an error something to the...

    The "Bug"...

    Tesla has totally changed our perception of the growl/roar.. Now when I hear it I think "All that noise and nothing really happened!" lol

    Evannex

    I ordered the rear console for my husband's car and while we do like it, I was surprised that it wasn't leather. I'm not sure why I thought it would be, since the description doesn't implicitly say so - but I did make that assumption and so I was surprised when it came and I saw the vinyl. He...
