Thanks for the info; It IS already in openstreetmaps, and already tagged (correctly-- in the correct direction) as "one way". And yes, my Tesla still tries to go the wrong way more often than not. Sorry I sound like a curmudgeon, but that's probably because I am. Odd that it never did that...

Master threads suck. Sorry, don't want to read 66 pages to see if anyone else has had this problem, but this update broke my Tesla. I almost always (except when it refuses to work) use smart summon when I leave work, as I am always one of the last cars in the lot. Since the last update (I've got...

Why not GF #2? Might help boost acceptance in the heartland.

Yeah, it's kinda ugly, though I suspect it will grow on me. Honestly, though, IDGAF what it looks like if it does all the things I want it to -- and if Elon tells true, then it will. I am excited not only for the on-board 110/220 + air compressor, but now also for the optional solar roof and...

A bug, or a feature? When I use Smart Summon, I notice that the Sentry Mode report of close encounters has been cleared from the screen before I am able to see it. Does anyone know if Tesla has any plans to address this? Like, maybe the notification could remain up until the car is put in gear...

Absolutely! I'd get a second one, but I think I want to wait for the truck...

I HATE pumping gas with a red-hot passion. In my previous vehicles, I would drive until I was on fumes to use every drop of gas I could, and therefore pump as much as possible, thus minimizing the number of trips to the gas station. Now that I can plug in at home, I rarely get below 100 miles...

Yeah, Elon said it "almost" didn't suck. The devil is in the "almost". The couple of times I have used it, it has moved in ways that does not coexist well with any other traffic. I used it in a relatively low-traffic parking situation, (one other car moving) and instead of parking parallel to...

Yep! Waiting for the truck for my next "scam"...

We had that problem the first time a Tesla came to visit (before we had ours). It turned out that the outlet we were plugging into was improperly grounded. Fixed the outlet, and, Voila! Have you tried charging from a different outlet?

I bought my M3 used, but, in the interest of full disclosure I should note that I bought from a family member. My model 3, "Woden", has been absolutely incredible so far (I bought him at the end of 2018; he was first registered in Aug 2017). When I bought him, he had 17,000+ miles on him, and...

I am also in the San Diego area, and got mine last night. I think the download was waiting for a while. I had to move my car clsoer to the house to have a strong enough wifi signal. It was a looong download, too!

When you set the start time for charging, it is associated with that particular geolocation, so for each charger you use regularly, you can set a separate start time. If no start time is set for a particular location, the car will start charging immediately.

Average amount spent on advertising (by other-than-Tesla) is $1000/car. Waste of money to support the entirely parasitic ad industry. We'd all be better off if fewer companies advertised, not more. Then people might base decisions on more facts > propaganda.

I've used it oh, half a dozen times? For trips of about 30 minutes at a time, mixed freeway and surface streets. I have not seen the reports of glass cracks from the Sea Sucker, but I would expect that could happen, especially if one were cornering aggressively. I do tend to drive a bit more...
