Thanks for the update. This makes sense. oh well.

Now we wait, hopefully it will apply to all LR AWD not just certain ones. but as @Knightshade been saying, same PN means same identical part. For $2k, i am down to upgrade to Performance and then hopefully for $3K or so from EAP to FSD.

nice cheap idea, i should do the same. Thanks!

Thats the purpose the purpose of that device on the wall. Ever consider getting foam as well just in case? When i park in my garage, i would at times turn on rearview camera which tells me how much space is left behind the car, this helps me judge when to stop. My Garage is 18 wide and 21 feet...

Cool, so now we wait to see what is the story there. Would interesting to see.

It is possible that the latest model 3 AWD can do performance or just regular, depending what end costumer wants. This is why we see many say software update to unlock faster acceleration. This is likely not try for earlier AWD builds, even though many say the same part number must mean same...

That’s why we seen AWD have their rear tires wore out a bit faster even accounting for weight transfer during acceleration. I have AWD and this seems plausible. I do hear front motor when I stump on accelerator. Maybe there is still more juice to squeeze from these babies if both motors work...

This is great news for those that were on the fence between AWD and Performance, now its only $2k difference to get a bit faster.

I was thinking of both, actual touch feedback and process more data. thanks for letting me know

That’s cool, $2-3K would be nice to upgrade from enhanced Autopilot to FSD for software and get new HW3 which if anything will make screen operate smoother and be able to process more items making car possibly even safer. Let’s wait and see.

There are many of us here who paid more a while ago including myself. As many people said, did you pay the price you agreed on? That must meant you were happy with a purchase. Do not dwell on it. Tesla will continue to adjust prices as needed, likely keep lowering them as it gets better making...

Model 3 performance now costs about the same as AWD when i purchased it. I just pulled out my MVPA, 8/2018 Model 3 Long Range AWD - $53,000 and i paid extra for pearl white paint ($1,500) and 19 inch wheels ($1,500) and EAP ($5,000) = $61,000 7/2019 Model 3 Performance with 20 inch wheels and...

Street racing ? Really? Perhaps try to find circuit or drag strip in a different country to race in a safer environment. Or buy a magnet and put on your side door saying "Hear me roar, race me" good luck

Judging from this comparison, Model 3 is better for taller people as it has more head room and skinnier? people as less hiproom implies smaller seats? I drove Model S for couple of weeks and for me Model 3 is more spacious, not saying more interior room but feels romier, like open space in the...

On the similar subject, what kind of jack are you using with these jack pads? like low profile Harbor Freight? also thanks for the Ebay link for the jack pads.

@tggallant - this sucks, thanks for sharing the story. I assume your goal is to get money back from Tesla or Volta? I had better experience with Tesla. Maybe try calling corporate office again? It’s a grey area in my mind as Tesla might shift blame on charging company which in turn will say not...

Kids not only outnumber people but hands. (2 adults, 4 hands vs 5 kids) Awesome shot

@molder101 - You seem like a nice individual. I also assume because she is your neighbor, you want to keep it civil.

Tesla Model 3 SR is better deal compared to Nissan Leaf +. I hope Nissan will adjust how their cool batteries.

This is savage. Would be interesting to see what was going through the driver's mind. Driver for sure knew they hit your car and speed away, shame.

Yep. While demand is strong, keep things are. Once Orders start falling, maybe then lower prices.

I also tend to think model 3 as a computer with parts. After say 3 years, on can upgrade CUP/RAM (MCU/FSD), then add better suspension like RAM, and other items. (Comparison is not a good analogy) I kept my last car for 11 years and now average car is about 12 years old The average age of cars...

Nice video

great video. in the last seconds the other car had white smoke, brakes overheating? Very fine driving.

Happens all the time for me as well. I find it entertaining.

yes. When car accelerates, force is applied somewhat equally to all the tires in AWD setup. With RWD or FWD, only one of the axis set of tires is used to push the car. This is why there is a thread here where one model 3 rwd owner had to replace tires under 10K, of course was likely mashing...

I had similar problem like you guys. when trying to insert J1772 adapter it was not going in. I looked inside of it and there was damage/melting around one of the pins. Drove to Tesla, and tech said as a courtesy we will exchange it this one time. Took my VIN down. Said next time I will need to...

lucky you! Most of the stories you read here are really bad. So free electricity to charge your car? That is really sweet.

Not bad so far. Did Tesla say you will get your pair of Powerwalls at the same time as solar install?

At first I thought this was Panasonic panels but SC 310/320 did not reveal much First look at Tesla’s latest solar panel made at Gigafactory 2 Which option are you ending up going with? 3rd party with LG and Tesla for Powerwall?

Usually i think you want to install two "generic" charging locations on both ends of garage such as 14-50. but since you have model 3 and might buy model y, going with two Tesla HWPC/wall connector might be a good idea. If anything, afterwards they can be removed and then 14-50 or whatever...

I got sunshade to protect the screen right when i bought a car. It just common sense that sun makes car hot and anything in direct sunlight will have problems especially if electronics. There is a reason why datacenters are kept cool. when i used sunshade on my previous car, my dashboard did not...

This was a Jaguar, but still awful that they target Teslas.

If you buy long range rearwheel then you get 325miles on full charge. Batteries do worse in colder climates compared to hotter. If you get SR+ at 220, then you cutting is too close and would have to charge to 100% every day. As long as you have enough time at home to charge 200 miles up every...

Just make sure warranty is good from the Installer and form the actual manufacturer. Yeah it will suck if Installer goes out of business but at least actual physical equipment will be warrantied by actual company. Likely it will cost to ship and you might be out of pocket to replace some, but...

damn, whats happening to San Fran?

Seems like a good price, $17,530/6.620=$2.65/watt which is Tesla's going rates. Powerwall is $10k after install, which i think reading forums here is the norm. In most location, you have to pay "connection" fee to your Electrical Utility, some small monthly fee as electricity is moving back and...

Cool beans, his response is one way to get people of his back. wait game is strong here

Too new of a car, came out late 2017 and production only picked up middle of 2018, so you will want/need to wait couple of years for the market to be flooded with Model 3 or when Model Y goes into production. is just my guess

Perhaps that SC does not have "stuff" that is needed if something is wrong with you car? such as parts, missing floor mats, etc. So perhaps that SC is not prepared for the new model @Flekoun - If you want to buy the models that are being sold in EU now, wait a bit. IF you are after cheapest...

Same here. Wonder if Tesla pulled the update back because they found some bugs?

Likely any location where car owners nap, whether at superchargers or public places, can be dangerous. Especially on outskirts. But a good way to drive far i suppose. Drive until low, plug charge up, nap and move on.

Cool Video, but boy a lot of wires everywhere.

Was a suggestion, don’t know his current car status. We seen over time Tesla has extra perks towards end of quarters. Especially when now tax credit will Be halved again.

Lucky you. Congrats. It made sense for you to flip the switch as I see you had to make some changes. You moved electrical wires yourself?

Dang, that’s bad luck. They do deliveries now in Burbank? A while ago only MDR was closest to San Fernando Valley. I get screen blackouts but on rare occasion. My theory MCU is overloaded with All new features. Good luck with next one. Maybe wait towards end of this quarter for some perks.

@woferry - If its the worst happens that you are travelling and you get PTO.. haha First world problems. Ask you neighbor if you trust them. glad to hear moving slowly

Good catch, glad cops went after the driver. Here in Los Angeles, i am not sure if they would unless person got hurt.

If you wanted something different aftermarket Ascension Front Fascia System for Tesla Model 3

There was a short time when FSD price went down from $5k to $2k. Now its back to what it was always was and according to news, will only be going up around May 1st. Wait until April 22nd news and see if it will make sense.
