    Superchargers in Southern California (location speculation)

    Ah yes, but now a quick walk directly across the street in Atascadero brings to you SLODoCo Donuts, which recently opened their 2nd location. A donut menagerie! www.slodoco.com

    Rear license plate installed with wrong screws

    Hmmm. Not gonna lie. I couldn't figure out those plastic tabs and nothing else came with the car. So had mobile service come out to install. Turns out I didn't have the right parts or the nice, shiny silver covers. He fixed it up nice and didn't make me feel bad for calling him out (plus my...

    Model 3 has no spare tire

    Just came here to say that much of our solar energy comes from the middle part of the state: Under construction The Blythe Solar Power Project is a partially completed 485 MW photovoltaic power station which is located in eastern Riverside County. The California Flats Solar Project is a...

    My car is great, it was easy to buy, and everything is fine.

    Also love my LR RWD M3 with no problems! Took delivery before Christmas. Just over 5,000 miles now. One minor fit issue with side light by trunk, was re-positioned by service dept. Love how safe the car is. Got the update with the additional miles, was able to charge before last week's trip to...

    PG&E Clean Fuel Rebate Check Bounced

    This is a bummer. Guess I'll probably never even get one in the mail now.

    Need advice: MVPA says "New/Previous Service Demo Vehicle"

    Picked up the car this week (mostly due to delays by me). It's really beautiful (see new avatar). It does have a few very minor scuffs that I can buff out when I get time (not scratches, just some dirt smudges). No doubt it was driven a bit but not sure for what use, of course. I did try to get...

    Need advice: MVPA says "New/Previous Service Demo Vehicle"

    Appreciate the feedback. Yes, I understand they had a right to sell the car to someone else. I'm paying cash but the $$ was not available until this month. Again, I felt pressured that I HAD to order the LR right away when they announced the production changeover. I have emailed them for an...

    Need advice: MVPA says "New/Previous Service Demo Vehicle"

    Hey there. First night reservation holder (late night). I recently configured and put in my order. Did it a few days after they announced the production changeover from LR to SR. But I told them I couldn't take delivery until early December. Anyways, original vehicle came in a few weeks ago and...

    New CA bill AB1184 being considered: Up to $10K rebate for EV purchases

    Definitely sounds like a "Tesla bill". I'm excited since I'm in CA! But I think CA sees it as a win-win in multiple ways - more EV's on road (thus less ICE's); and supporting still-building Tesla industry/employees in CA.

    Here is why I'm getting the bare bones 35k T3

    Newbie to the forum today but reserved online night of March 31st (even tho my reservation says April 1 - scheduled for Q1 2018). Been lurking and trying to learn everything for so long now. This link is super helpful, thank you! I was figuring I needed the long-range as I am in sales and on the...
