Thank you for posting and keeping us updated :cool: No additional fees added by Tesla for using cc far as you know?

there has been some discussion on this wording for irs seems to be when system complete not PTO .. but i am def NOT a tax attorney / specialist so ... As far as knowing I think they take your signature about being truthful .. as most deductions .. and if audit occurs and you lied ..$$$$$

IF battery day included an announcement of say a powerwall 3. Realistically how soon would most here believe they would see production / actually be an option for Tesla solar orders (not 3rd party installers) Or is this nearly impossible to predict cause .. well its Tesla :p im with @jboy210...

You dream killer !! :p My system already has 340W panels so prob no free bonus for me. Your explanation of higher output panels makes much more sense than my knee jerk reaction of “extra” panels :rolleyes:

Just noticed this line on purchase and home improvement agreement just below breakdown of costs. “Due to inventory availability, Tesla may increase this system size by up to 10% at no additional cost to you.” :eek: Is this something I should get excited about or just standard wording on...

In general, with tesla doing install is running conduit thru roof / within attic, if feasible an additional cost or just something you would have to convince lead into doing ?

I do not yet have PV installed but have been watching my usage closely recent and had very few real world households to compare (only SCE guilting everyone). I saw much less usage in my home yesterday. I know there are so many factors that come into play but would you all say age of and number...

I have just past the point of going forward with purchase so slightly ahead of where you are now. @jjrandorin is spot on with the assumption that you will receive full rebate and apply that to your loan lest your monthly payments increase ( I believe Tesla lists amount that payment would...

Yea I thought it odd moment I read on these boards of jurisdictions that do not allow a single Powerwall inside a garage yet you can park 2 or 3 ‘rolling” powers walls inside garage ... no problem :rolleyes: ( I’ll ignore the 45 to 150+ gallons of gasoline that are perfectly acceptable parked in...

I am stating the obvious here and I know this is likely bureaucracy but the lack of logic and reason of people as a group makes me sad. A likely min 5 lb cylinder of liquid at 150psi that immediately goes to a highly flammable gas ....oh no problem ... a couple of basically large highly...

Ok thx .. somehow had it in my head the merchant (tesla) could not allow cc payments for certain transactions and/or tack on an extra fee to offset fee they are charged .. maybe i’m thinking of diff payment platform

May i ask will you pay with credit card? And if so was it still no added “convenience” fee ?

Sometimes you just need a lot more data points .. yea ...;)

Ok thank you for the reply / info Yes you are correct, those threads are what got me to thinking about the scratches. If these scratches are not normal part of installation for most people here then I am justified in requesting replacement(s), hopefully will not happen. Just occurred to me I may...

Yes the footprint would annoy me as well, and having no idea how much weight they put on it ( not that I can see a need to put your foot on a panel during an install, but then I am not an installer). But what if it were just the scratch? Would it be reasonable to request a replacement of any...

Hello, I have just had my initial home assessment with Tesla completed on a 8.16 kW solar system and 2 Powerwalls. I have been lurking here and have learned quite a bit, thank you all. My question is what level of what appear to be ( in web photos as least ) deep scratches on panels is...

I have seen more than one motor vehicle accident where occupant(s) was not wearing seatbelt(s) with airbag equipped cars and impacted windshield / center console etc .. these were generally higher speed than would be seen in parking lots. Not sure if same could occur at lower speeds. The OP may...

Agree with above .. i have set 80% will sometimes see 81% when leaving, once in a great while 82%. This is irrespective of any updates

I’m sure it’s been mentioned but what is unique about rotor and or shield that causes this to happen ? Never in 30+ years of driving had this occur on any car or heard of it front disk / 4 wheel disc etc (Happened in 2nd month with my 3, tiny pebble made the most god awful sound)

Exactly ! Much less attention drawn to an M3 ... killin em softly !

Mash it ! Mash it good! ... when something’s going wrong you must mash it mash it ..when a problem comes along you must mash it mash it

Late reply, Thanks for the heads up on the wand button waking car (no more door first !) Was going to ask / answer what you just answered yourself .. cannot wake car with wand button if not plugged in already .. at least our two cars it seems model 3 on home connector / 2020.24.6.9

Think you’re on to something with the contrast / car recognizing rain on windshield. My wipers would not begin soon enough yet would snap to attention and start wiping moment I went under overpass this was in the early AM. Happened every time went under an overpass reproducible about 6 x I know...

Good points ... at some point someone may chime in “we backed-up for years no camera” but the converse is I never once backed up my Tesla without a backup camera until yesterday (yes i do also use side mirrors even with camera)

Agree on most of ur points I just really enjoy cars and newest tech so tesla model 3 was perfect Knew performance on paper of P3D was good but was not even close to ready for the reality of the brutal acceleration available. Finding out about unicorn P3D- bonus Do like idea of zero emissions /...

Funny mine did same thing today for first time ever when I backed out of garage, I’ve owned for almost 3 months / 1,800 miles. Ran an errand, still black when I left from store. Got home tried the steering wheel reset still black screen. Went out to car a bit later in garage to try leaving...

Friends / coworkers around here have had success telling electricians they want NEMA 14-50 installed in garage for a ‘welder.’ Seems to result in most reasonable quotes / installs. My theory in addition to not using the T word ...people who weld are perceived as being more familiar with cost...

Acura RDX 2019 ( 7 months prior to model 3 purchase ) keeping for snowboarding / cycling trips Prior to that 2010 accord V6 coupe ... most reliable car I owned for 9 years ... so far

Yea this is an awesome deep fake :) Happens to be hitting all cities those in this thread reside ... or believes they do ... well done sir

Submarine Bob!! You want to go submarine supercool and dead sexy !!

During my entire adult life I have helped people DIY mechanical / electrical repairs and have been a realist when we/ they are in over our heads and need to seek professional help. I find myself rooting for Bob to please please please continue to attempt to repair your own Model 3.

Just bought my t sportline wheels about 3 months ago. That IS very tacky the way they applied their logo / name. Could have at least been more subtle. I prob would have thought twice about buying if they had that back then.

Nothing to switch on/ remove with TPMS sensors that I have ever seen, I believe they “come on” each time they receive a signal from car or a programming device, some wake up when tire rotates I purchased universal type TPMS sensors on amazon screwed them in myself dropped off wheels / tires at...

Really well executed, lovely. Can you please update pics in the next months, as nature moves in around your project would be very interesting to see any transformations.

Thanks :)

Maybe . .. my next door neighbor wants them but he has to convince his wife cause he just dropped $$$ on full wrap :p

Interesting ... I did not know these precut kits existed. I would also be interested to keep water spots / dirt from getting “up” into door jams .. seems to happen even when exclusively home hand washing cars. Plus the second kit ‘optimizes engine compartment cooling airflow” :p

In the case of stealths some people don’t ...they have even offered to trade their factory 19’s for18’s on this forum :p

Can 2nd this ... my 9/19 delivery stealth came with the 19’ wheels ... basically as someone stated you take them as they come color wheel size etc .. no custom ordering of stealths in 2019 that I am aware of

Hopefully with those wheels I never find out :confused:... I suspect the Michelins would only protect the wheels in a slow and gentle curb encounter ?

What threw me off the first few times backing into superchargers was having to hit the “stopper” in order for the cable to reach ... I guess I’m accustomed to years of not letting those things go underneath my cars when pulling in forward at traditional parking spots unless u want to risk it...

Hard to get a good angle of it but when i upgraded to 20” wheels the Michelin pilot tires are made with some type of “rim protector “ basically there is a channel between edge of rim and start of sidewall / results in tire sticking out a few mm beyond wheel only near rim i did not know about...

Frunk has been “bare” as well since I took delivery in mid September

I also disagree with the spirit of not allowing people with “higher” incomes to claim the basic CA rebate. Whether one earns 75 a year or 175 a year the car makes same amount of emissions. Is the point not to encourage people to buy a zero emissions vehicle? Forgot to add received reg plates...

Oh thats awesome .. yea i know one of the 3 rebates allowed temp was prob CA so i ignored Thanks i’ll get on that before they “run out of funds” again :rolleyes:

Last i checked there is Waitlist for CA rebate for funding (as usual) so unless you are in a specific “low income” bracket using the temp reg will not speed things up.. unless something changed i’m not aware of

I took delivery 9/19 and have not received anything yet either ... also would like to get rebates going

Online wheels listed at 25lbs each / tires 23 lbs each / TPMS weight is negligible .. i will still get actual weight post up

I had looked this up let me find it / i will also weigh one later today post it up /let u know

Nah i’ll try on forum here 1st thanks though
