But now what will be my excuse to get pizza rolls from Double Dave's?! lol :)

Reddit is filled with posts of the same issue with various iPhone versions, too. Like others have said, it's likely just the coil position of the phone relative to the pad. Tesla just didn't allow for any margin so if you happen to use a phone that's in the sweet spot, good for you. Otherwise...

Just generally useless, all seasons, haha. I just got mine last week, but I quickly learned it's not powerful enough. I drove for 3 hours with my Pixel 3 playing over bluetooth and discovered my phone was like at 20% from 90% after about an hour and half. My podcast app uses a fair amount of...

? I don't understand the question, but...No? Or yes, but new like all the other parts of the car? haha :p

11 months, 2 days from order to delivery. (Sept. 9 - Aug. 11) 13 delivery windows.

I guess I can finally return my signature to it's normal, non-character limit pushing version without all the EDDs. :P Also, for those trading in a Tesla, they are requiring returning the UMC. I don't know if this is old news or not (they didn't ask when I traded my S for my 3 in 2018), but I...

Old thread, I know, but just another data point. I just got offered $40,500 by Tesla for my 2018 RWD M3 LR (just over 30k miles). I too looked up KBB and it was giving a range of $48-52k for Very Good condition so I was preparing to get properly insulted. So I checked Carvana and it gave me...

A good example of why it takes time to read all this carefully (which I didn't do, haha). From https://www.reddit.com/r/electricvehicles/comments/wa8viu/summary_of_draft_ev_tax_credit_bill_with_code/: $3,750 of the new credit is based upon the vehicle having at least 40% of its battery...

The tax credit for personal vehicles is $3,750. The $7,500 is for commercial vehicles. (Page 394 of the bill).

It's not that they can't. It's that they DON'T WANT TO. In my memory (I got my first in 2014) , Tesla has never made any decisions with a customer service focus. Right now, they have more orders than they can handle for the foreseeable future and their focus is on stock price and profitability...

There is at least 1 Reddit thread (in r/electricvehicles) on this, likely others, but my advice is to not think about it until the law is passed and signed. Even in that thread, people claim it's retroactive and others say it's not. (My semi-professional quick read: It's not, goes into effect...

If it's still anything like the first 5 years I followed this...NOT AT ALL. There have been spots on that map that have been there for literal YEARS. Just as accurate as estimated delivery dates, lol.

2018 Model 3 LR, no bells, no whistles...no farting horn, haha. KBB says something like $50,000, which would be awesome considering I paid less than that for it when you factor in the tax credit. I just REALL don't want to mess with 3rd party sales and in Texas, a trade reduces your sales tax.

Got a text with a VIN this afternoon! Is the end in sight?!?!? Delivery window Aug. 7-11 (of course, the very end of my current window, lol). How have Tesla's trade offers been lately for Teslas?
