    M3 issue in the Colorado Mountains

    Hello sir. I drive the same Colorado mountains you do in a RWD Model S with Michellin X-Ice winter tires. I have never had any issues on I-70 or any roads with snow for that matter. You shouldn't have any issues with your AWD Model 3. I run the Denver Tesla Club and have club members say even...

    Rivian’s Early Offerings Include 7-Seater SUV

    I did inquire with Rivian about the reservation challenges and I can confirm it is due to the high volume of traffic to the order page (great news for them). I was told they are quickly working on resolving this issue and people interested in putting a $1,000 reservation down should be...

    [Resolved w/12V Battery] Model 3 Hypermiled 606 Miles Down To 0% - Now Will Not Take A Charge

    That's your perception. EVERYONE I spoke to were excited that a Model 3 went 600+ miles. Though they were curious if the car was up and running again, not once did the question the reliability of the car. I don't doubt that there are some people who question the reliability, but I think it's a...

    Certainly a valid point. I know several hundred people, though, that were truly excited about the event. Some people will attach to the negative in any story. I believe most people I've dealt with have seen the positive in the outcome.

    [Resolved w/12V Battery] Model 3 Hypermiled 606 Miles Down To 0% - Now Will Not Take A Charge

    I've read all of the articles and don't see anything wrong. They're reporting on the actual event - just like, say, Consumer Reports on the Model 3 breaking. I think the articles were very positive toward the Model 3. It drove 606 miles on a single charge. That's pretty awesome. The car handled...

    Hypermiling record of 606 miles! Also, may be a bad idea...

    We received some pretty good clarity today from the technicians about why we only managed 66 kWh. Will make another update soon.

    Though you are welcome to your own opinion, I don't think its fair that you call us "full of themselves" and "idiots" when you don't know us. Both Erik and I have given a lot to the Tesla community and helped many non-Tesla owners through the journey to EV ownership.

    I've been in touch with most of the press and they have asked me to update them once I have new info.

    The owner was fully aware of our plans and in support of it.

    Mainly because we both own Model S - not a Model 3. You've suggested a great idea that we may take you up on.
