Separate names with a comma.
We did Seattle to North Carolina in our X a year or so ago. We didn't do much planning...we pretty much just got in the car and let it route us....
I agree it may well be personal preference. And using the wheel control for speed up/down on the 3/Y is indeed pretty cool. But after switching...
Yes, thanks for all the details. My wife has an X, and I have a 3. I will probably replace my 3 with a Y some day, but my wife decided she'd...
Tesla knows average repair costs better than anybody, and while they say the extended warranties are not a "profit center", I am sure they are...
Our X is 2.5 years old. I definitely agree on 6 and 7. (We have an old tea tin just inside the garage door, and put the key in there). Our...
I got 12.11.1 yesterday - after an update to the HW3 FSD computer the day before.
My P3D is on 2020.12.11.1
Last Saturday I used the mobile app to set up an appointment to get my FSD 3.0 computer installed. The first available slot in Bellevue, WA was...
I guess my previous comment wasn't worded very carefully. I am well aware of the gas tax issue, and I agree EV drivers should help pay for roads....
The EV fees that jsanford mentioned were never on the ballot - the legislators just decided that it was easier to add taxes on EV drivers than ICE...
I have had a couple of Teslas with leather seats in the 5 to 7-year range, and I've never seen this type of issue. However, I have never put that...
It varied from $1k to $2k in the US over time; sorry I didn't follow UK pricing. For a long time white and red were the most expensive options,...
I usually had mine in Standard, so no direct experience. But I recall many owners complaining that low mode caused uneven tire wear. But maybe...
We have had a couple of Model S, and my wife traded one for an X (which, 2.5 years later, she still kind of regrets). It is a complicated...
It's been a while, but years ago I ran Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 year-round. They are technically snow tires, but the snow capabilities...
I've missed driving mine too. We do still go to the grocery store, do some gardening at my son's house (he is a county emergency worker and his...
We had an extended warranty on our 2012 Sig S as well. The paperwork we got when we bought it said clearly there was a $200 deductible, and that...
I am sorry to hear about the OP's experience. I completely agree that Tesla can and should do more to shore up their service departments....

We have a model 3 and a Model X (also purchased in December of 2017), and thought about trading our X in for a Y. We decided against it, below...
Thanks! I passed it on.
A couple more anecdotes from the Seattle area (courtesy of my wife who just talked to a friend "Carol" that we have both known for over 35 years):...
It is at the Trees of Stone Interpretive Trailhead at Gingko Petrified Forest State Park in Washington.
I can't find the Oregon company that I had been familiar with...they may well be out of business. But HERE is a link to a nearly identical...
A couple of hundred posts ago, I mentioned that my brother-in-law is a nurse in Seattle. It happens that he works at the VA hospital. Almost two...
We don't travel to cities...all of our vacations are at National Parks and such. We've driven EVs for these trips for 10 years now. We haven't had...
Spelling out some of the reasons why we like the X better than the Y: · Tows more (even once a hitch is available for the Y, which it...
Mostly true...although I wash my rubber gloves before taking them off. What I like most about wearing gloves is that it is a good reminder...I...
I predict they will discuss battery improvements. Sorry, but I think it will be hard for anybody to say much more than that...Tesla is good at...
I think it would help if Tesla showed efficiency numbers in terms of wh/mile used to push the car, and a separate value showing wh/minute used to...
Excellent. That's our plan exactly if we get the check - I am retired so it's possible we will. Note that charitable organizations that typically...
I had a Roadster for 7 years. Then I leased an S for 2 (they offered a 2-year lease in Sept 2016), because I needed something my elderly mother...
I am pretty worried about small businesses getting lost in the shuffle here too. But, here's a cheery anecdote that may help a bit: my cousin...
An anecdote to add to the pile about real-life testing: My brother-in-law is a nurse in Seattle. He started to have flu-like symptoms late...
I wrote the above in September of 2017. I kept that Model S until Sep 2018 and 49k miles, and never did have any problems with it. In May 2018, I...
That is expected. Remember that the graph is expressing energy divided by miles. When you were going slowly, you put on very few miles. But in...
I also never had this happen in any car, until a few years ago in our Model S. One elderly passenger getting in to the rear put her hand on the...
That message is only sent to people that the car expects to be in a crash given their driving patterns. It is part of the predictive accident...
Another not-an-X, but here's a midnight silver Y with chrome delete from Tesla's "order now" page for the Y: [ATTACH]
My wife has an X (and I have a 3); but when the Y was announced, my plan was to trade her X in for a Y. I am all about cheaper, smaller, more...
It is true. If you choose not to use all of the available range, there will be less of it. I guess it's more like a 10-gallon tank that you never...
At my last house, I had a Daikin Altherma electric heat pump that heated water - both for domestic hot water to store in a tank, and to run...
I found the shudder annoying enough that I insisted Tesla fix it despite a lot of reluctance of their part. It is certainly annoying that the...
The Performance wheels, with an extra area milled out will fit on any Model 3 (a few people on these forums have done it). But only Performance...
Years ago Tomsax measured energy delivered vs energy drawn for various L2 amperages on the Roadster, which went from 120V/12A to 240V/70A. His...
According to the last survey I saw, half of America still doesn't know that EVs exist. Many of the rest can't name any, much less explain how they...
It is hard to tell much from a wh/mi figure by itself. It's energy divided by distance, so we need to know a bit more about both of those. Are...
In 2018 I went from a 2015 Model S P90DL with air suspension and 19" wheels to a Model 3 with 18" wheels. As cucubits said, yes, the Model S had...
The day after I bought one of my cars, I let my stepmother drive it, and she got two blocks before curbing it. It happens. (Another time, she only...
We have had an X for over 2 years, and a 3 for over a year. We are looking at the Y, and there's a lot of details that Tesla hasn't announced yet,...
