Events like this is why I really worry about Tesla and assume that they will either get acquired by Apple or Toyota in 2 yrs or go BK. All they had to do was have a cool truck that was similar to a F150 or the Rivian and insure their staying power butt instead Tesla completely screwed it up...

Finally got my CA HOV stickers for my Tesla Model 3. It took 8 weeks from when I sent my application. Here was the entire timeline. I’m curious to know what other CA Tesla owners timelines are? -Got my car 6/18 -Received CA license plate 7/20 (6 weeks) -Sent CA HOV application 7/21...

Tesla really needs to make Sentry mode more like the Ring app!!! That way we can adjust the sensitivity of the alerts and also allow for live steaming views of all the camera angles on the Model 3!!!

Works again now after the SW update. I wish Tesla would just offer AM radio. It isn’t like it’s going away in the next 5 years!

unfortunately Tesla is nowhere near actually using Autopilot the way it was marketed to us and most likely never will be. :(

I’m afraid that Rivian is going to beat Tesla to market! We’ll be lucky to see a Tesla truck by 2022

Exactly, I am losing almost 20 miles of range a day when I park my car at the train station. I’ve stopped using Sentry mode until tesla updates it to be a real security system like a ring doorbell can that allows for me to see all cam views live and sends me alerts when a event happens that...

We have to acknowledge that although Tesla is getting better there are still a lot of build quality issues they need to iron out. I mean look how nice a Lexus SUV build looks compared to a X! If Tesla was smart they would just partner with Toyota to actually build their cars and they can...

The LR and Premium are totally worth it!

I definitely recommend going with the LR battery as even with the xtra range yer lucky to get 250 mile real range @75 mph

The Model 3 definitely needs the following to match the BMW/ MB quality: - better leather seats ( ventilated ) - more sound dampening for road noise - better Panel gap fits - better liner / rubber spacer fittings - smoother suspension ( too bumpy ) - ability to actually use the MCU as a TV...

Good news, if you placed your LR RWD order for a Tesla before 6/1 , just tell your deliver ctr rep that HOMELINK was part of the premium config when you ordered and they will do a due bill so you can get it installed for free!

I also used a friend's referral code when I ordered my 3 to get the free supercharging. I picked up my car last wk and tried the Supercharger at the Fountain valley, CA site (by Costco) and just got a $0 fee. I guess it will continue like this for 6 mths. No info on my app or website...

So Delivery day came! I ordered on my LR RWD MSM/Black/Premium on 5/24 - Got VIN# and Delivery date on 6/15 - and went to pick it up at the Costa Mesa Delivery ctr on 6/18. It was relatively easy process.... Drove up to the Valet and gave them my trade in vehicle ( Chevy Volt )...

I ordered my LR RWD MSM/ BLACK - 19in wheels on 5/24 Just got the text this morning- Vin# and Delivery date of 6/18 pickup at Costa Mesa delivery ctr. I'll make sure to bring the car checklist to make sure the car is not a lemon.
