    To Upgrade or Not to Upgrade?

    Went to Tesla service and they thought the wind noise was normal. No panel gap issues. I also had lots of wind and road noise with my 2018 M3. Eventually I got used to it and drove the car for 5 years. When buying a new Tesla, it's always going to be a lottery with regards to quality.

    To Upgrade or Not to Upgrade?

    Don't do it. I did the same thing but for me it was a $2000 money maker. I still regrets it even with the free acceleration boost (from self-referral) since the new car has much more wind noise than my old one and the current grey color looks like *sugar* in comparison to white on my old car.

    Trade in MY bought 7 months ago to buy a new MY and get paid about $2000 after federal and state tax credits

    No lease involved. Never did lease. Always paid cash for my car purchases.

    Buyer Beware! Tesla Ups Price on order by $1790.00 and And Does not Refund Order fee of $250.00!!

    Even the original price was not that great since this is a demo vehicle with a lot of miles and shortened warranty. A lot of new 7 seaters all over the country during that time frame got $8000 discount.

    Trade in MY bought 7 months ago to buy a new MY and get paid about $2000 after federal and state tax credits

    Trade-in value reduced the total sales tax on this transaction to $500. The $2000 refund is after everything including tax, title and registration.

    Trade in MY bought 7 months ago to buy a new MY and get paid about $2000 after federal and state tax credits

    Was able to order a gray 7-seater MY (2023) from inventory discounted by $7800 (52000-7800). Trade in my white 7-seater MY bought 7 months ago for $37300. After 7500 federal tax credit and 3500 state rebate, at the end tesla will refund me about 2000. I guess it's a not a bad deal to replace a...

    Weird noises while driving.

    Not sure if you had the same noise as mine. Just had it towed to tesla and fixed. It was the front upper control bar which was making loud squeaky noise when turning or going over bump.

    Anyone in Boston Area Comment on needing winter tires?

    Survived last winter with all season 18 oem tires on my LR RWD. So far so good with 19 oem all season tires which did very well in the last several snow storms already. Just be careful and slow when driving in snow. Switching to winter tires is such a hassle and not necessary if you are a good...

    Almost had a serious crash driving on AP

    Unfortunately not. I was too shocked at the time to realize that I could've saved the video. I always pay good attention while on AP but I will definitely be even more cautious going forward.

    Almost had a serious crash driving on AP

    Leaving NYC on one of the highways driving my LR model 3 on AP with a cruising speed, suddenly a truck on a slow right lane veered into my lane just a few cars ahead of me and AP did absolutely nothing to slow down or brake. I had to apply maximum braking and steered left to get onto a narrow...
