    VINs from GIGA Texas Tracking. Who will be first?

    Mine was also just changed to “TBD”. I ordered a Model Y Performance and the previous EDD was like the last three weeks in March. I suspect the Giga Texas production ramp has become too fluid to commit to an EDD.

    Model 3 18” Aero Wheels For Sale - Portland, Oregon

    Wheel “A” sold. Wheels “B” and “C” still available. Standard center caps, lug nut caps, and aero cover hub caps are also included at no extra charge and you can pick the best of the lot. Only one size and color of this wheel has been made and they fit all years and variants of Model 3.

    August Order Estimate Delivery

    Congratulations. Only Tesla could be this cost efficient. Very cutting edge that they can do an unattended touchless delivery.

    Issue with Registration Fees and Sales Tax

    My Oregon delivery shows a “sales tax” and I think it’s a legit but poorly labeled and poorly explained charge. And I am seeing posts like yours on the Facebook Tesla Oregon Owners group for charges similar to yours. I would consider the charges to be approximate and something to clean up later...

    Model 3 18” Aero Wheels For Sale - Portland, Oregon

    $200/wheel. Three 18” Aero wheels with TPMS air sensors included for Model 3, fits 2017-2020 at least, all variants. I believe it fits 2021-2022 too but TPMS sensors would not be compatible after 2020. Ok to buy only one wheel. Popular wheel for spare tire or winter wheel set. There is some curb...

    Will Tesla let us know when MY with 4680 structural battery can be ordered?

    Yes the 4680 range increase is worth a lot to me. Wow you got a good price. Makes me wonder if the price increase is for something more than increased demand like we‘re gonna get 4680 cells and significantly higher range.

    Will Tesla let us know when MY with 4680 structural battery can be ordered?

    I wonder if people in line for a Model Y can decline delivery a few times until the 4680 cells start rolling out. Any anecdotes about how much Tesla tolerates this? Do they throw people out of line and take their deposit? I’m in line for a MYP with a March 2022 delivery estimate and am willing...

    Difficult situation with a Condo, advice appreciated...

    Try to future proof this for people who live there after you: run 50A wiring from garage to breaker panel but configure everything else to only use/provide 20A. There’s no risk in thicker wiring. It just costs slightly more. And consider installing a J1776 wall charger so any car can charge...

    Elon Confirms that the FSD sneak peak is for car with HW3 only

    S/X customers paid the most and are generally more capable of buying another Tesla. Seems like good business strategy to give them priority. Their cars are also more likely to be in a Tesla service center, due to age, and it’s easier to upgrade cars that are already in the service center.

    Elon Confirms that the FSD sneak peak is for car with HW3 only

    Elon said HW3 was using only about 10% of its compute power. It’s also the biggest source of data for the neural net.

    My 3 was hit by a teenager; what can/should be claimed for this damage?

    No need to blur the license plate. It’s in plain view every time you drive on a public road.

    20” Sport wheels with 40mm offset

    Most of the 20” Sport wheels have 35mm offset and are taken off a Model 3 Performance but I am interested in the less common 40mm offset version of this 20” wheel. Both sizes fit non-Performance cars but I prefer the 40mm variant and am willing to pay $300 + actual shipping cost.

    2019.28.3.1

    Mine seemed to wait too long to start braking for stopped cars but I’m just one sample.

    2019.28.3.1

    I have the same problem with Autopilot trying to get over to the slower right lanes too early, miles before my exit, and I’m on 2019.28.3.1. Also, AP demanded I take control right after I ran a red light, like it was programmed to get the driver’s attention in case they’re not mentally engaged...

    M3 Display Car Colors

    Why do some of the red Model 3 pictures on the internet look almost as red as a Ferrari but in person are consistently more dull like dark pigment was added? I have yet to see a Model 3 in person that looks like the bright red internet pictures. Did Tesla make two shades of red? The difference...

    Suspension problems. OEM dampers are failing.

    I have no reason to doubt your perceptions about the dampers doing less damping. People notice what is important to them. I suspect your dampers lost some performance but without failing. If you said your seat cushions were noticeably less firm after 6000 miles I would believe this too and it...

    Is There a Definitive Answer? 20" Sport Wheel Includes Rear Upper Fore Links / Control Arms

    My SR+ manufactured 06/19 also has the weaker looking spot welded upper fore links like the Performance cars. I suspect it’s designed to sacrifice itself to protect the chassis. When people use larger wheels with low profile tires they lose significant tire depth that would have absorbed the...

    Is There a Definitive Answer? 20" Sport Wheel Includes Rear Upper Fore Links / Control Arms

    Any idea why they are replacing the rear upper fore links and why the part is no longer included with the 20” package? Part number is 1044427-00-C. I have seen statements that the replacement fore links are just beefier for side impact crash related reasons but no evidence of this was offered. I...

    Is There a Definitive Answer? 20" Sport Wheel Includes Rear Upper Fore Links / Control Arms

    The offset is different. Performance cars have 35mm offset wheels while some or all other variants have 40mm offset. I see two possible reasons for this: (A) the car’s wheel mount surface on the suspension assembly sticks out farther from the chassis on cheaper cars and needs a higher offset...

    Recommend a Sub Trunk / Cargo Area mat?

    IKEA door mats are $1.49. Cat litter boxes with a lip are $5.78 on Amazon. Do you still love the price?

    Standard Interior+ No carpet floormats or Frunk mat

    IKEA sells door mats for $1.49. Think of this before you pay over $50 for a frunk mat. A sheet of black plastic the size of a door mat doesn't cost a lot to manufacture.

    Cheaper trunk frunk/frunk mat options?

    IKEA sells door mats for $1.49 but the cheapest frunk mat I've seen is $45. A sheet of black plastic the size of a door mat should be cheaper than this.

    This must be the silliest reason to sell a Tesla

    Not everyone can be reasoned with. Sometimes you have to come at it from a different angle. When my wife worries about absurd threats to our toddler's health I tell her to ask our pediatrician as if I have no idea. Maybe the Model S wife should ask her doctor about the cancer risks of a Tesla.
