Hello All, I'm looking at another Model 3 Performance and the Tesla website shows an estimated delivery date of November, is that 2021 or 2022?

Hello, All. I was bored today so I thought I'd try and quantify how much energy the AC and heat seat use. According to my unscientific calculations*, the seat heat (on high drivers side only) and the AC set to 73 degrees (55 ambient temp) increase wh/mi by 23%. That sure seems like a lot of...

Same here.

In my experience, the range of my car is directly related to how often I use the 500hp fun pedal.

Owning a Tesla is like using a Windows computer, to get it to work like it’s supposed to, you’re got to know all the right “hacks”. If you want to just get in the car and drive just count on getting 70% of rated range.

Agreed, it's more embarrassing.

What kind of market share do you suppose they could of grabbed with a truck that was actually useful as a truck?

I wonder how much Elon's pet project is going to cost Tesla. No way this thing is going to be a commercial success. What an opportunity wasted to stroke a billionaires ego.

How embarrassing. Elon is clearly a very smart person but common sense, not so much.

Thanks for the replies!

Ok, any idea why cold weather causes this?

The past few day’s I’ve been getting this message pop up after start. It eventually goes away. Is this indicative of a hardware problem?

I’ve just started logging data to answer this question. The first is at 11% SOC the second at 20% SOC. I’ve been too busy the last couple of weeks to get more runs but I’ll post them when I do. Guess I should mention my car is a P3.

In NC DV is limited to 10% max by state law. The insurance company offered me 5% and it wasn't worth attornies fees to fight them.

Another thing to consider, high milage tires don't perform as well as their lower mileage counterparts. You might not be going to the race track but you might need to stop quickly or need lateral grip to avoid a collision. IMO, the Pilot Sport AS3's are an excellent compromise.
