same here - everything plays well but no art

Other than TV Remotes and Mobile Phones with big buttons, I never considered seniors would prefer real vs virtual buttons. And I'm both a senior and a designer. My first reaction to the Model 3's consolidation of controls was, this better be well done and logical. I find it more than...

My first drive with start/stop enabled came to a jerk-stop at almost every stop sign. Someone suggested a computer reboot, which I did and the second drive had smoother stops. When a confusing situation was encountered, like one stop light closely followed by a second, to a stop light following...

With so many opinions I'm looking forward to seeing who's right:) I'm betting on 144 (TOPS)

FYI - Since activating Start/Stop, every drive I take concludes with 6+ Gigabytes of data being uploaded upon arrival at home. Seems like this is the data aggregation we've been anticipating for the next phase of FSD.

I've had good results by coating the white interior with Ultima Interior Guard Plus. Any marks or stains have been easily removed with McKee's 37 Total Interior Cleaner. Probably best if applied when the interior is new.

Captured with an iPhone at 4K attached to a suction mount suspended from the glass roof. The mount is an old one from a job I did about 20 years ago, It's from the Cullmann brand but no longer made. Hard to find something versatile, not too expensive and that's very stable.

I did use the freeway for about 20 miles, then stopped for a minute and navigated to the Fremont Supercharger from about 12 miles away. Which I assumed would have triggered ORBW, but I have never gotten the message. I'm not sure what additional conditions need to be met for battery warmup to be...

I did a time-lapse video of my Fremont charge session. Model 3 LR RWD, 2019.20.4.2 55526e9

I have seen one other non-stickered new Tesla getting an HOV ticket. My first though was, with so many gas car violators using the HOV lane, why bother to pick out a vehicle that does qualify, but hasn't yet received or applied the stickers? I'm a proponent of strict enforcement, but EV's would...

FYI - The Digital Plate is only legal as a rear plate in California. A non-digital front plate is also required.

There was a post in the Facebook "Tesla Model 3" group from someone who had a piece of wood impale the underside of his car. There was fluid leakage but it was diagnosed as a punctured hose and repair was $700. I mention this because it shows how undercarriage damage is very unpredictable. BTW...

Thanks for locating the charging "sweet spot." I'm assuming the Athens, AL Supercharger is by the minute, not kW.

I did select the Supercharger and navigate from about 12 miles away.

I had charging set to end at 60%, but after spending about 10 minutes cleaning the car I noticed it was showing 5 minutes remaining, so I raised the limit to 80%. I wasn't watching closely but the last 5% was the slowest charging at about 85 kW. Other cars charging while I was there were S &...
