    Used 2016 Model S P90D vs New Model Y (AWD Long Range)

    I started out in a used Model S then went to a new Model 3. My recommendation is to go with the new car IF you are someone who enjoys the latest tech. I loved my Model S but it didn't have any sensors at all (not even parking sensors) and watching all those updates roll out that I couldn't use...

    Blog Tesla Software Update Includes New Autopilot Features

    That's a great analogy. I'm not certain this is a bad thing though. Tela is literally training an AI to drive. It's got to go through steps to gradually learn.

    Changed Order from 3P+ to SR+, Am I Crazy?

    I bought the red brake caliper covers for my P3D- and absolutely love the way they look. I think they were $220 out the door. Super easy to install.

    Interior cleaning wipes

    Same here. I have a pack of baby wipes in the center console which I used for the seats. To clean the vinyl parts I use detail spray and a microfiber cloth. Adams VRT is great for a finishing touch. Adds some shine, a bit of water resistance, and SPF protection from the sun. It's super long...

    Ceramic Coating paint

    This might seem counterintuitive, but I'm of the opinion that $400 is too low. Before we go any further please know I'm no detailer, I just did a lot of research and talked with a few people who are detailers for a living before I had ceramic coating done on my car. Here's why I think $400 is...

    Talk me out of turbines!

    I'd say it depends on how willing you are to swap the wheels out each season, and if you're okay with tires that are going to wear out very quickly. Now, the caveat for me was I had a P85+ with the staggered tires, so I wasn't able to rotate the tires except for swapping sides. My rear tires...

    Is there a an easy, quality solution for a quick swap of the speakers?

    So - I came back to this post specifically to call out a mistake I made. When I wrote my initial impression, the quality of my source audio wasn't that great; I think some of the streaming music built into our cars might be at a low bitrate. I turned on immersive sound and used a...

    This dude is the KenM of the TMC forums! There's no way he believes everything he's saying.

    Is there a an easy, quality solution for a quick swap of the speakers?

    My 2013 Model S had the premium sound system and it was so much better than the Model 3 premium audio that I was convinced the car had the stereo of the Standard Range variety. There's far less treble in the Model 3 system.
