    1,200 Mile Road Trip to Houston, TX - Am I Crazy?

    Really wish I knew that when I was on my road trip!

    1,200 Mile Road Trip to Houston, TX - Am I Crazy?

    Keep in mind that some superchargers will limit you to only 80%. This happened to me on the way back from LA to Phoenix and it definitely affected my driving style for the rest of the trip (much slower).

    Do you use your frunk?

    I use mine all the time, almost exclusively. I back-in to my parking space to charge up so it's easy to access, and with the frunk spring modification it's super easy to close. Best of all it's the perfect size for my groceries, and the bag hooks come in very handy (sorry new buyers).

    Got Model 3 (SR+) Towed, would there be any damage?

    If there were dollies on the front wheels and it was lifted from the rear, then it's fine. No wheels were spun.

    Rapid discharge while parked at airport, how to contact a human for help?

    Stop opening up your app and hope for the best when you get back. Worst case scenario you get it towed to a charging station.

    Will 5mm difference in wheel offset compared to stock be an issue?

    You'll have no issues. I am using wheel spacers on my car which would be equivalent to +20 offset, and they're flush.

    Do Art replica R171wheels needs hub ring to mount?

    If they don't know the size then how could they know you absolutely need adapter rings? The hub bore should be clearly stated on the manufacturer's website, and if not can be easily measured with some calipers. The Model 3 center bore is 64.1mm. It is most likely that the wheels you are trying...

    Would these fit on stock P3D 20” rims?

    Why are you considering two different tire sizes? You want all four tires to match on an AWD vehicle. That said, go with the first pair in 235/35/20 for OEM fitment.

    What convinced you to buy?

    For me it was Elon's tweet in February that the 35k version would finally be available. I had floated the idea once the first announcement for the car was made, but figured it was a pipe dream. Only 35k for a Tesla, that's crazy! Fortunately for me at the time of the tweet I was in the market...

    Would you still have bought your model 3 if it never had autopilot?

    I don't drive much, and only just went on my first real road trip (8hr each way). Steering was a breeze and the cruise control was enough for me. Basically drove the whole way just speeding up and slowing down with the scroll wheel. If I was commuting daily or regularly took long trips, then...

    Do Model 3 owners simple not know how to park?

    I'm pretty bad at parking my Model 3, mostly because the backup camera goes black whenever I need it...

    Thoughts on this noise?

    100% positive something is just stuck in the fan, likely some leaves.

    Calling all lowered SR+ owners

    Here is my lowered SR+. I ended up using UP Moderate springs for the MR model, and I'm happy with it. The front end is ever so slightly higher than the rear, but I don't mind. Bought them secondhand, didn't want to wait forever for UP to "develop" the SR springs.

    Has anyone Plasti dipped the 18" wheels under the aero covers?

    It almost certainly would, as the coating is very soft when compared to the factory paint.
