    Is worth to order FSD now?

    I’m ordering the FSD today. I initially had it order to come with it but had to strip it out to qualify for the new NJ $5000 electric vehicle rebate. If I look at it that way the FSD is only $2000 net after rebate. My first impression of the car is that it’s much bigger than the 3. I didn’t...

    Is worth to order FSD now?

    Thanks! Not what I wanted to hear, but pretty much what I suspected. In keeping with the crux of the thread I’d say the FSD is definitely worth it. I don’t want to pay $7K for it but after having the lane change feature on the first two cars I’m lost without it. Like they say, it’s not what...

    Is worth to order FSD now?

    I just took delivery of my Model Y and this is causing me some confusion. I have a 2015 MS; 2nd gen AP, and it will execute driver Initiated lane changes. I have a FSD M3 and it will do both driver Initiated and auto lane changes depending on the level of automation I have engaged. My new Model...

    1st Roadside Assistance Experience

    I live on the opposite coast in NJ and your situation is eerily similar to mine. I got a pressure warning and was just able to pull into my employee parking lot as the pressure reached zero. I called roadside assist and they were very accommodating and would have a repair team to my location in...

    Winter Driver: Extremely hazardous

    First off, I think you are exhibiting an Americanized view in your observation that 29 degrees above "sub zero". As another post mentioned "sub zero" is merely another term for winter. If you go by the Centegrade scale "0" is 32 degrees Fahrenheit and I think that is a better reference for what...

    Model 3 Weird Smell

    When it is very cold, I have just an initial faint smell that is normal for electric heat. It goes away within a couple of minutes as the heat stabilizes.

    My M3 vs my MS...the revolution is underway

    When the day arrives that we have the Tesla app for the Apple Watch it should alleviate the need to take out your phone.

    My M3 vs my MS...the revolution is underway

    Interesting note about the key fob in an earlier post. It’s obviously a matter of personal preference but I love not having to carry my keys anymore. I love the app and have had no failures with it. The key card for valet parking has been seamless as well.

    how come no one talks about gas anxiety?

    800 miles is great but unfortunately, my internal tank has to be emptied every 250 miles so I have to stop anyway. I'm sure everyone here has had bathroom anxiety. :(

    My M3 vs my MS...the revolution is underway

    How can you disagree? You've not owned or regularly driven an M3 so you have no point of comparison. Not one comment here has been negative toward the MS, only that especially for the price, we prefer our 3's. I've had my S for almost 3 years and my M3 for 2 months. To this point, the only 2...

    how come no one talks about gas anxiety?

    I think maybe I've matured a bit since I've started driving my Tesla's. We occasionally take a road trip to Stamford CT which in my MS always required a bit of a charge up to get back home. This past weekend we took our new M3 for the first time and expected we could go round trip without the...

    S/3 Comparo -- Driven Back-to-Back-to-Back

    I had the thought of trading my Model S 70D for an AWD M3 ever since I got my Model 3 but it hadn’t crystallized until I read your post. Now I’ve got some thinking to do.

    Auto Hi Beams

    Yes, my S has auto but my 3 doesn't and I wish it did.

    Auto Hi Beams

    Tomorrow is my one month anniversary with my Model 3. It has vastly exceeded my expectations but the one item I miss from my Model S are the auto Hi Beam Headlights. I'm not sure if it is possible to upgrade this via software and have not read anywhere if Tesla plans to make the change. The car...

    Cancelling my reservation

    I think this totally misses the point. Tesla can and will produce a $35K version of the Model 3 but many if not most of the potential buyers will choose not to buy it. I’ve had my Model 3 for 3 weeks and my Model S for 2.5 years. My conclusion is that I would not buy another S. The 3 is just too...
