I had a 2017 P100D for 45k miles and iirc it averaged around 320-330 for the time I had it (roughly from 45k-90k miles).

That sounds like it! I need to get it in an empty parking lot and test it in reverse.

'21 S here, 21"tires definitely had the uneven wear. I'm on the 19s now but not enough mileage yet to say it's a fix, but I'm hopeful!

Same, 2017 S with 80kish miles. Warranty was through Tesla when they sold used vehicles with 4 more years and 50k more miles

No recent charging? My S shows warmer than the garage but after charging it's always a few more degrees more than the 'warmer normal' lol.

Good question. I'll try it out later today. Also a thought- I do not have apply brakes when regen limited turned on.

My '21 refresh is getting a strange 'moaning' sound when off the throttle, slowing and the steering wheel is turned. Doesn't happen when the wheel is straight and seems to only happen during regen. Almost sounds like a worn bearing. Going to setup a service appointment but would like to get some...

Sure is taking a while to pop up on the map and app.

Plaid was in chill mode or not full throttle. I'm glad you are happy with your X!

Not showing online yet but something is going on. They are blocked off still by cones but there were 3 Teslas there. It looked like 2 were trying to charge. The Tesla logo is lit on the stalls as well.

My '17 had heated seats but weren't vented, I really like the cooling here in south Texas haha! Also came from MCU1 so the new one is light years quicker. I miss the free supercharging I had and now that the weather is starting to cool off I think I'm going to miss the sunroof.

EVs really do change the way people think. All of a sudden, people care about car fires, how much fossil fuel is used making cars, what devastating effects digging up elements used in batteries is causing. And now tire pollution.

Maybe they could add the option when purchasing? Kind of like when Uber asks your preferred temp and level of conversation?

I bought a new 2015 Z06 in April of 2016. Chevy had 15% off '15 models and tacked on to the dealer discount I ended up with 20k off. It can happen.

From your post, absolutely not. Not saying it isn't for everyone though. For me, it's a no-brainer. I came from boosted and highly modded Corvettes so 15k extra for a low 9 second daily driver? As soon as one fell in my price range I couldn't throw my money down fast enough 😆

So what's up with the two Teslas with manufacturers plates in the marked section (Tesla flags) next to the chargers? Looked like they had QR codes in the windshield. I was getting a ride from the airport and noticed this last Sunday. Maybe a way for owners to check out the newest model?

My 21 doesn't open that way either, however my '17 did.

I put 45k miles on a used S and traded it in at 90k miles. No major issues. Rear trunk latch, headlight drls and door handles, most fixed by a Ranger coming to me. Got a few thousand miles on a used '21 I bought, not enough to comment on reliability yet though.

I had something fall on my hood, left a small 6-7"area with 2 or 3 little dents that looked like hail damage. Estimate for repair was around 550. Was told they'd just bondo it smooth then repaint and blend. Was going to see if pdr could tackle it, not crazy about having the bodywork done.

I bought one in April, in about 30 minutes I was used to it and haven't looked back. Different strokes for different folks 😉 Now to convince the wife she needs the new 3 😁

Went by early Sunday morning. Fences are down but chargers are still wrapped up. Can't believe how busy the Bucees was at 3am 😆

Used this one finally early this morning, showing one other stall occupied, was surprised to find a Mercedes charging! Bucees really makes a great location!

Around my area between 30 and 40 cents.

I loved that the 'auto' mode had low, mid and high for fan speed when I first got the car but I quickly realized even on high the fan gets down to 2 when the cabin gets to the desired temperature. I am constantly switching to manual to up the speed or turning the temp down in auto so the fan...

You forgot the /s 😆

He likes you! Lol Seriously though, that's a bummer.

2017 P100D was at 12.7% range loss when I traded it in at 89,476 miles.

Starting to second guess myself but I thought the Raven came later? 2016.5s+ were known as face-lift models, I thought the Ravens didn't come out until 2018 or 19? If you have a great home electric rate and you can charge at home, free supercharging loses some value. If supercharging is going...

Oh I know, the one they replaced we both thought that the uneven wear was the cause of the leak until I found the nail afterwards. I did the swap to 19" fix 😆

I'll be interested in seeing the cause of the clunking. I have something similar on occasion when the rear suspension loads or unloads. Also just switched to 19s and my other rear 21" tire was showing the dreaded wear as I thought it would. No signs of it yet on the one the dealer replaced due...

LR or Plaid? 21s? My '21 Plaid with 21" wheels gets 300 at 92%, 325 at 100%. I'm the second owner and the car now has almost 40k miles.

Mine seems to be doing rather well and it's hovering around 100 here in Texas too. I do have my car ceramic tinted and have a sunshade on the roof.

Your Y feels quicker than the P100D? Surely you must know that it is in some kind of loaner mode, right?

37k on mine, I got the hat trick with the vibration, rear clicking and front popping. The clicking and popping are intermittent and the rear noise rarely happens (10% of the time?) and almost sounds like the vehicle is flexing and a rear seat/ seat belt bolt is loose. Enough high frequency that...

Are you using car wash mode when you wash it 🤣

No signs of construction yet. From what I saw not even ground markings. I know it's a bit early but I figured maybe as fast as some of these pop up.

If the phone is connecting I would ping the service center and see if they can find any logged error files.

No wear/peel on my yoke yet. I do notice that at certain steering angles when I'm getting in my leg rubs the yoke and I'm always afraid to look 😄

Well, the data is in, and I don't see any real difference. My numbers for the month of testing actually came out a bit higher but I'll chalk that up to the hotter weather and more AC usage. I ended up at 336 wh/m in Sport mode vs 330 the prior month and half in Plaid. I do wonder if this...

@X-Care EV ^

That efficiency is insane (beyond Ludicrous even maybe? Haha). My MSP I'm only getting around 320 wh/m. I actually bought a set of 19s to see how much I can improve that. Nice write up!

What a great deal if you can pick up! If only I was local....

My wife loves it too. If it does come here I think her next car will be a 3 😁

Full disclosure, it's warm here in south Texas too 😆

Ever since this thread, I've changed to sport mode and haven't noticed any difference yet. I plan on keeping it in sport mode for a month straight and then average out my reported consumption from teslafi. See you in two weeks 😉

I can't see the situation where a new battery would be a bad choice.

Not sure what the issue is but heads up for anyone currently in the area.

M/Fer? (Mustang/F150) 🤣

I had about a twenty minute span earlier around noon today that I couldn't get the app to communicate with the car. But other than that no recent issues. Central Texas area.

Not a silly question at all, the process is what is silly imo. I can only tell you my experience, albeit with a used car in California purchased from Tesla delivered in Texas. I was told that I had to have the car on my insurance before they would ship, and to send proof so that it could be...
