    New tow hitch cover

    It's really flexible. So much so that I snap it back on without a thought everytime after removing the bike carrier.

    New tow hitch cover

    Got a May 21 build Y and the hitch cover was pretty easy to remove. There’s a notch on the top side for a flat blade screwdriver. Part number is 1494009-00-C

    Current Delivery Times

    Got my VIN out of Mt Kisco for pickup on 6/5. It’s a 190xxx but still says Tesla Vision. Seems a bit older than the VINs coming out.

    Today’s price increase - garage door opener now $325

    I was looking at the weekend and it was $300. My Y order is now back to saying 6-9 weeks (was June 12-30) so I thought it was too early. D’oh!

    taptes gen 3 (15w) wireless charging pad: first impressions

    Just received mine, 2 months after ordering to replace the Taptes version 1. I'm delighted to report that the 15w wireless charger fits both the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max in vertical position. Even the top cover will close (I forgot that was even there). Phew!

    Cost to own Model 3 AWD vs Subaru Outback

    The Y also has a heat pump which I’m guessing would increase effective range.

    Home charging confusion

    48 amps is nice on the AWD (c. 42 miles per hour of charge versus around 30 on a 32 amp). Unless you need to recharge between trips; it’s still going to charge fully overnight.

    Updating a 2020 Tesla vs 2020 Updating a Land Rover - A lesson in WTF

    It drove me insane trying to update the navigation maps in my BMW. So complicated even though it’s “included” for the first 3 years but refuses to do it over the air. Tesla has disrupted the industry by regularly pushing updates to both the functionality of the car and navigation. The...

    New Owner needing advice on charging setup

    However you proceed, remember that you can claim 30% of the installation cost and charging hardware against taxes now. Lessens the load and it’s awesome to charge at home. No more pumping gas in the freezing rain is also a wonderful thing!

    Intermittent LTE issue resolved!

    Just wanted to post an experience - I tried searching for an active thread. Since I picked up my 3 in June I’d noticed the music streaming would cut out regularly and the map / traffic updates. Even at home where it should’ve been on WiFi. This progressively got worse but I just assumed it was...

    Input on Huge Crack in Windshield - Model 3 Delivery Day

    We had a crack on the inside of the roof that we only found when we went to pick up the car. Bit of a surprise that they hadn’t caught it during any inspection (look up?!). We also weren’t allowed to take it with a due bill. It took a week for them to replace the roof and our car was in great...

    GAP Coverage

    Loan/Lease Payoff through Progressive was an extra $5 for the 6 month term. They were also much cheaper than Geico for me.

    Wall Charger Installation Quote - Review

    That’s just about what I paid, and I’m so glad the electrician mounted it to the wall and set the dial. I paid $425 which is very reasonable for my area.

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    Finally picked up my Blue/White with Aeros. It’s such an amazing car! Delivery was excellent (our first attempt last week failed after we discovered a crack in the roof). They were pretty communicative throughout and sent a cool photo of the car in the shop! The Mount Kisco NY operation was...

    What defects have you found at/after delivery?

    Failed pick up on 6/5. Exterior looked good, interior fine until I looked up. Things get missed I get it, but the response has been lacking so far. We’re only 25 miles from the delivery center so drove home in our old car awaiting the delivery specialist to come up with a plan. Either...

    CT CHEAPR rebate question

    As long as the base price is under $50k you're good. Options are fine on top. Cheapr only applies for cars bought in Connecticut, but as there are no Tesla dealers in CT, there's a special instruction that Tesla dealers can process it out of state. The Tesla dealer in Mt Kisco NY knew all...

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    Aw man - I went to pick my blue/white LR AWD today. Took a look at the exterior and it was in perfect condition. Opened the door got a waft of the new car smell and touched that buttery-soft white vegan leather. Then looked up and saw this I believe they're going to pull out all stops to...

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    Looks beautiful. Same as my configuration too - picking up from Westchester Mt Kisco on Wednesday. Did it come with HomeLink?

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    My VIN still isn't showing up on my Tesla account. It came via text later (about needing insurance docs). The link I received for scheduling was tesla.com/scheduling/<Reservation Number>

    Waiting for white interior

    Ordered a LR AWD Blue with White interior on May 13 (the day the price went up). My Sales advisor sent me a sheet with Forecasted 6/4, Expected Delivery 6/10. It's a screengrab from their order system so I'm not sure what "forecasted" means. Is that build, or ship? James

    Am I an idiot for going for a lease?

    Was going through the same decision myself, and decided to finance on an LR AWD this week. Tesla finance (automatically) came back at 3.99% rather than the advertised 4.25% I'd done my calculations on. Around here Chase offers 4.79% so that's better than I thought. I'm also looking forward to...
