    FSD Lane Change

    I thought that was the case with mine, but literally EVERY TIME I have to change lanes it’s requesting me to put pressure on the steering wheel. Even if it’s 5-10 seconds after I just put pressure on it.

    FSD Lane Change

    Is there a way to just let the car do all the lane changes without having to acknowledge them? I have FSD and I turned off the option of needing to acknowledge a lane change by tapping the turn signal stalk, but I still have to apply pressure to the steering wheel before it’ll make the lane...

    Roof Tint - Cermamic

    So I’m looking to possibly ceramic tint my roof tomorrow. Also having the front two windows and even the windshield done. I know the roof is already tinted, but can anyone give me statistics on how much sun is actually coming through the roof currently with the factory tint? I’m curious how...

    Credit Union Asking for MCO

    So I'm doing 3rd party financing through a local credit union here in ohio Wright Patt Credit Union. They are asking for Tesla to provide the MCO. My delivery specialist mentioned they don't typically have an MCO till after the car is registered or something. I'm hopeful this isn't going to be a...

    Using Carvana to Trade-In, thoughts?

    Yep. I have a loan on mine from BMW and they're handling it all in the background. I had to send them payoff information on it and my account info. Upon pickup, they'll give me a check sense the quote is more than I owe, then they'll mail a check to BMW who I'm financing from. Sounds smooth...

    Using Carvana to Trade-In, thoughts?

    So similar to others who got a follow up quote from Vroom for an additional $500 after a few days, I just got that and it puts them ahead of of Carvana by a couple hundred. Is the experience with Vroom similar to Carvana as far as getting it picked up and stuff?

    Does getting a Y quickly = previous reject?

    Just ask your service advisor when you get assigned a VIN. They can give you all the details of the car including build date and history if it was rejected. It’s also the service advisor who reassigns it so you can tell him outright you don’t want a car that was rejected due to issues. In many...

    Using Carvana to Trade-In, thoughts?

    I thought the same thing about the 7 days, but after talking to someone at Carvana yesterday, once they’ve confirmed your documentation and approved it all, you actually have 2 weeks or up to 2k miles to turn the car in which baffles me.

    NEMA 14-30 or 10-30? 30 amp breaker

    Can someone explain which one should be used between a NEMA 14-30 or 10-30 outlet? Looking to do a 30 amp (clearly) breaker and run the outlet about 40-50 feet from the electric box to an outside outlet. That outlet will be house in some kind of box to help store not only the outlet but the...

    Using Carvana to Trade-In, thoughts?

    So what all did they do when they picked it up? Did they inspect it, drive it, etc? I’m curious how quickly they pay things off. And yea, mine has gone up $2k in just a couple weeks, but I also know newer, low mileage, luxury cars are selling really high on the used car market. I’m getting...

    Tesla Financed approval time

    You can change financing terms all the way up till you take delivery. They typically just want someone to have approval for financing before shipping the car.

    Appaled by Tesla Trade in value, Don't match with carmax

    I just got my first offer on Vroom. When they gave you another offer for an additional $500, did that happen via email automatically? Someone call you? Did you do just another appraisal and it went up? Right now, the offer is fairly decent, but Carvana is about $400 more and those two are the...

    Using Carvana to Trade-In, thoughts?

    This may not be the best place to post this, but here I go. Given my appraisal from Tesla for my trade in dropped 25% between March and June, I'm looking at alternatives. I could sell private, but that's time consuming. I've done a few online offers and by far, Carvana has come back with a more...

    price drop $3000 vs 2 years of subscription of premium connectivity

    This was the original posters suggestion for those people who fall outside the return date of the car. It's not something Tesla is actually doing or will do.

    price drop $3000 vs 2 years of subscription of premium connectivity

    Again, is there ever a good time to drop a price without someone complaining? We just learned they’re no longer going to offer the standard range option for MY so that’s one reason for the discounted price. So for those people holding out for that, this helps them. Tesla still has a high demand...
