AP and Nav on Autopilot really make my day on Henday. I look forward to the drive from home (near Henday just west of Calgary Trail) to work (Yellowhead near 97th). Some days the car suggests westbound, some days eastbound, depending on traffic conditions. Nav on Autopilot even gets in the...

I got the 18" Michelin X-Ice Xi3 last winter and they worked well. They are as quiet or quieter than the stock Michelin Primacy MXM4 18s and performed well for winter in Alberta. Its much easier to change winter tires if you get a second set of rims. I got the 18" R187 from Replika Wheels...

I didn't do a round trip from Canmore and back, but early July I did Edmonton-Jasper-Columbia Icefield-Canmore and back to Edmonton in the Model 3 LR AWD. There aren't any public charging options at the Columbia Icefield Visitor Centre. While there are campgrounds near the visitor centre, they...

Fort McLeod to Missoula requires going through the Going-To-The-Sun road in Glacier National Park. That road is closed for the winter (mid-October through mid-June, exact dates depend on when they complete snow removal and finish spring road maintenance). Unfortunately ABetterRoutePlanner...

I don't know about an American Model 3 in Canada, but a Canadian Model 3 in the US still has the Canadian summon range limit - I.E you have to be standing right next to the car to summon it. I'm guessing the American Model 3 in Canada will still have the American limit, which may be one reason...

;)I had the same idea, except i used a hamster ball instead of the hamster wheel. The wheel might be better, as the hamster ball tended to get stuck in a corner ("oh oh, my engine is stalled!"). I also had the Aero wheel covers installed on one side, and the wheel covers off (with tesla wheel...

I just took mine to a car show last weekend. Some tips: - You can put a sign with basic details on an 8.5x11 sheet in the frunk, taped on a window, or on the ground (taped or on cardboard/foam) Speaker stands make nice pedestals for a stand up sign. I had three signs, one with lots of details...

Take a look at the link RiverBrick posted. That shows Canadian Tire putting in DC fast chargers in Hinton, Edson, Edmonton (South Edmonton Common), Lloydminster, North Battleford, and Martensville which would cover the Jasper-Edmonton-Saskatoon route. It also shows Prince Albert, Humboldt...

I have the auto lane change option available and activated on my Canadian Model 3 LR AWD purchased September 2018 (AP 2.5 hardware), and firmware starting from early April had the option for auto lane change which does work whenever navigate on autopilot is available (single blue line in car...

ABRP is still a good planner but when it can't plan a route (or routes way out of the way because there are no direct superchargers) you can add suggestions to it to work out a route. While ABRP doesn't plan using normal chargers, it still shows them on the map (at least the ones listed on...

I just came back from Edmonton->Las Vegas->Edmonton in an AWD LR Model 3 with Fort McLeod->Lethbridge->Helena->Butte as part of the route (and back the same way although I took an overnight break on this chunk on the way back). Going South is the section you need to be careful about as you...

I have a 3 AWD LR in Edmonton and I have about a 100 km daily commute (live on south side, work on north side, take Henday to get there). My service is 100A service and I had a pre-existing 40A breaker to a subpanel in the detached garage. I self-installed a 30A breaker in the panel to a wall...

I got my Model 3 done at Car Pretty in Edmonton when I got mine in September. Car Pretty Inc. Was about $1650 all in for full front (front fascia, full frunk, full front fenders), A-Pillars, mirrors, headlights, and rocker panels.

Short answer: Unless you have a 300+ km daily commute, even in Canadian winter you should have plenty even if you don't have a 40/50/60A charging circuit. You could try whatever you can put in before having to upgrade your service. Long answer: I have a house with 100A service. The garage is...

With a home made TT-30 adapter with a Camco 14-50R you can leave out the neutral connector lug and cut/file a horizontal notch in the 14-50R neutral slot so that you can use the Tesla 14-30 adapter in it (without having to cut off the neutral of the 14-30 adapter). This will automatically limit...

The Michelin X-Ice XI3 235/45R18 XL 98H that I have are listed on the Michelin site as weighing 23.15 lb which is 2 pounds lighter than the MXM4 so my assumption that the tires are similar weight is incorrect. The MXM4 was straight off the car and may have had some dirt and small rocks imbedded...

When I got my winter tires in, I weighed a stock 18" aero rim with stock all-season tire and R187 18" rim with Michelin X-Ice tire using a bathroom weigh scale (so accuracy isn't great) Stock rim+tire with 6200 km wear (no aero hubcap): 50 pounds R187 rim + new X-Ice tire: 52 pounds 4x aero...

The Tesla lug nut cover puller does work to get the Tesla lug nut covers off of the R187. It is a tight fight but it works. I would imagine that without that, you can probably use a piece of balled up tape or maybe a small suction cup on the face of them much like taking off the center caps in...

I ordered a 14-30 on December 4, got confirmation it was shipped on December 8 (Saturday), and received it December 12 (last night) sent by FedEx. You will probably have it soon.

I've been looking into it but probably will never get around to it, I don't see them much with the aeros on, and I'm kind of liking the futuristic look the aeros have. I've gotten the blue lug nuts and here are some pictures (its from my garage at night so excuse the poor lighting). They...

The lug nut covers are small plastic caps that go over the lug nuts. Your photo does not have the lug nut covers. Here is a comparison. I got them from Tesla shop with the logo centre caps as the "aero wheel cap kit" Model 3 Aero Wheel Cap Kit You may be able to get them separately from a...

I tried the suction cup method and it didn't work either. From the back the easiest way I found is to first pull out the metal circular wire "ring clip" with pliers which reduces the pressure on the tabs, then gently push in each tab towards the centre while pushing on the back of the blank...

Thanks! I got a code and ordered a set, and here's my code for someone to use: 1432963648

If anyone has a code they can spare, PM me. Thanks.

There are a few of us scheduled for September 15, and the DA said the cars were scheduled to arrive earlier that week. Deep Blue Metallic, LR, AWD, PUP black, EAP, FSD, 18" Aero Delivery centre: pickup at Calgary-Fairmont Non-owner Reserved: 03/31/2016 online/before-reveal Config opened (LR...

Here is mine (Canada order but should be the same)

The Telsa crew from the Calgary location had a pop-up in Edmonton Southgate Centre this past weekend (July 28-30). They said one of the reasons for this was to determine where to put an Edmonton gallery so who knows we may get one eventually up here.

I really hope they revise pricing to the real value of $CAD (and the US dollar stays or lowers in value before then), because the current Model S $USD/$CAD conversion rate of 1.42 is a real killer. Based on that the currently used conversion rate on Tesla's S pricing, the projected $CAD pricing...

Canada, March 31 as web reservations opened (1 hour before reveal). RN108379XXX

I'm quite interested in the SCH network as it will make a major decision on my purchase. I received the "Finalize my Tesla" email shortly before Christmas and am deciding 60KwH vs 85KwH, single vs twin chargers before finalizing the order which is due in just over a week to keep 2012 pricing...

Here's another data point: Melouche-Monnex, Alberta, personal use for primary use commute to work, collision plus million dollar liability. Model S non-Signature, for car value just over $100K: $871/year (for a single car on policy). Its about $8 less if it is under $100K. It's a steep...

They asked me if I wanted to come to Toronto for the test drive so they are aware of it. I think the first batch of test drives for Toronto works like the rest, Tesla contacts the people with reservations in reservation number order with their preferred test drive city and close the drives for...

I was at the Calgary event yesterday (the first day) from about 2:00 to 4:30. It was at the center of the Chinook mall below the food court, which was in a prominent position that had good views from multiple hallways and from above. It had a few people earlier on (about 2-5 at all times) but...
