I ordered the night of the release. Ultra Red / Black interior. No updates. Still says May - June 2024

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing 2019 Tesla Model 3 RWD - 24k miles, Immaculate. Please add to the discussion here.

Fingers crossed mine comes in by June 3rd. That’s the last day to take delivery before Oregon’s EV rebate program ends.

That's great. Hopefully the Fremont ramp is smooth for the new M3P so I can take delivery before 6/4. 🤞

What’s the price cap now? Still $50k?

It looks like the program has hope: Oregon’s popular EV rebate program will reopen later this year, but only for a couple of months

I don't see why it wouldn't, but we don't have concrete proof yet that the front uprights/knuckles are the same dimensions.

Yeah, it would definitely need a spacer up front.

Who's gonna be first to put the 20x10s (or 10.5s... we don't know yet) with 275s up front? Square Warp setup would be cool.

What do you care more about… interior or exterior color. Gonna have to decide.

This made the decision a no-brainer.

Thanks. Highland Performance secured :)

In 2023, my AGI was below the $300k MFJ limit. I'm purchasing a Model 3 in 2024 and intend to take the POS tax credit. It is possible that my AGI exceeds $300k this year (2024). If it does exceed the limit, will I have to repay the tax credit when I file my 2024 taxes in early 2025?

LR uses Korean LG 2170s

Black. Never been a light interior fan.

Ordered. Ultra Red. I’m glad I waited.

Most people use 18x8.5 +35 or +40 (Model 3 Aero wheels). As it relates to Model 3 Aero wheels, make sure you get the "gen 2" wheels that have a higher 750kg load rating. The original Aero wheels are below the required load spec. Generally, when it comes to 18" wheels for Model Y, finding a set...

The 5N probably hits its EPA range estimate though. 220 is still not great, but the M3P isn’t 300+

255/55R18 is the best tire size for Model Y.

What size tires? They look thicc

Personal opinion. I think Y with 18" and 255/55 looks awesome.

Lift springs on stock shocks sounds like an awkward, rough ride. MPP preserves stock comfort/feel.

Brrrr

Transformer is there. Not sure what the hold up is. Tried plugging in. No power.

Looks great. Way better

I'll be in Black Butte this week. Will check in on Wednesday or so.

Prefabs

Kumho PS91 has a very square sidewall profile. Also hankook rs3 if I recall

It's unfortunate that a car's performance capability has been reduced to such a narrow metric: 0-60. It's a shame.

What do we think the wheel specs are on the new M3L? With 275 rear tires, they still look a little stretched like the 235s currently do on 20x9. I'm guessing 20x10.5 +45 rear. 20x9.5 +34 front.

The $45k R2 is for the small battery (read: LFP) single motor variant. Large pack trimotor will probably be $60k+

I’ll bet you a dollar the new P still has the stepped hub lip.

On the outside, it's a similar approach to the "legacy" P, except they plan to differentiate it with unique front/rear fascias. Same body/fenders as non-P. I'm more curious what they are doing under the hood in terms of power electronics and suspension.

My Model 3 is lower than the original M3P, and I think I have scraped the bottom once in 5 years.

I think it depends, from what I have found. We went 235 to assist with winter range.

That’s hawt.

EPAS is not an alignment and should not be considered equivalent. EPAS cannot validate camber and toe like a laser alignment machine.

It's such a cheap part, and Tesla will come to your house and do it. I did mine preventively at 4 years. I would rather do it voluntary, on my time.

I change mine at 4 years as a preventive maintenance item. It's a cheap part and would rather do it on my time.

Temperature seems to be a major factor. I just do what we know works for Li-ion cells... avoid, where possible, high extended temps and high SOC. You will always find me parked under shade if possible haha.

Coming up on 5 years with my 2019 SR+ (Panasonic 2170 cells... the good ones). After a couple deep discharges and charges to over 90%, I'm sitting at ~5% degradation. Over its life, the car has been charged to about 60% on average, daily. I charge higher as needed. Less than 10 total...

Other than S/X, charging performance has only gotten worse with each Tesla model. So much for alien technology.

Nice. As soon as I get a Highland Model 3, it will be lifted. I want the ground clearance of Model Y without getting a Model Y. My wife has a Y, and I really don't like it compared to my 3.

Other than lighting, what would one use a 48V power tap for?

It appears that CT is using the same onboard bi-directional charger for outlets/powershare as well as charging. Therefore, it's most likely limited to charging at 48A.

DC to DC vehicle charging is not a thing. No way to synchronize the pack voltages.

As If I'm interpreting Kyle's tweet below correctly, the system works as I suspected: the outlets do NOT work while charging, since the truck is using the same bi-directional OBC for charging and outlets.
