Yes! The black is horrible. I am really not overly picky. I can deal with swirls and rock chips, I'd drive the thing through a touchless automatic car wash if I could find one. I didn't PPF when I got it because I've never PPF's more expensive cars and I just lived with the rock chips. That...

Lol. The link shows it for use for Condom storage! In a warm car. Brilliant.

Seems like it would be cheaper than full body PPF wrap? And you could use real paint. I don’t need my car to be perfect, but holy cow! I’m pretty sure the thing just scratches for sport! And it is the sides of mine that are getting banged up. I assume from brushing it with my clothes (nothing...

i have a teen that is close to getting his permit. I’m going to buy him a car for sure. But I can’t really afford another Tesla. I’m thinking I will probably buy him a civic. Have you taught your kids to drive on the Tesla? Seems silly to buy a car and pay for it for the half year he only has...

Really, it is not that hard to figure out. Pull out last years taxes and look at the total tax liability (lts around line 15 on the 1040 form). If it is more than 1875, you get a credit for that 1875, assuming your life is about the same as it was last year. Credit, as in the IRS treats it as...

I tried calling on the way back and was on hold for over 30 minutes before I gave up. 2B had a sticker with a space for a number to call but there was no number. When I was the only one there I was getting 484 miles an hour added. It was awesome! Forgot to check the KW because I was...

It showed 2 of 8 when I got here and there is no one here. 3 and 4b do not work. 2b works

Is the Yuma supercharger really closed? Does anyone know?

Hmmm. I was specifically told the sr+ came with floor mats at the sales center. No big deal. Between my loan and my trade in there was more money than the car cost. I didn’t even think of calling the service center! I figured I had to sit on hold with corporate for hours!

My loan money went to Tesla a couple of days before I traded in my old car there and picked up my tesla. I was so excited/frustrated that I walked out of there without the included floor mats (don't really care) but also without a check for the over payment. Anyone know how I get my extra...

I got my car at the end of June from Tempe and the temp plates were close to expiring before I got the cloud plates.

I talked to a real person at Bank of America and they ran a bunch of scenarios for me. Their rates were better than most places for most loans but I got a .5 discount because I have accounts there.

For what it's worth, I don't think I would pay for the LR in your situation. LR seems a better fit for someone who drives their car more than one "tank" on a daily basis with no where to charge without losing time during the day.

I agree with you on the car on the display looking like you have room to merge when you really don't. I do go by the rule that if any car is shown in the display in the lane next to me, it is too tight for me to merge.

If you don't care about the parking feature, the only additional thing you get with FSD is automatic lane changing. I use auto pilot all the time. Probably 90% of the time on city streets and freeways. The thing on freeways that kind of sucks is that, when you change lanes, you have to reset...

When I first started reading your post I thought you were being picky. Until I got to about the third issue. The pushed in panel is way not acceptable and that is a really horrible paint job. I wouldn’t return the car but I would make them fix it. My SR+ was pretty much perfect by the way. So...

I would wait until you get the car and decide on the sound proofing. Mine didn't need it. I live in Phoenix. These windows must be magic. I am not even getting mine tinted. You definitely do not need the sunshade unless the car is sitting outside in extreme heat for hours on end. Driving...

I went back and forth and actually regretted going with the 14-50 once I had my car and was waiting for to it be installed. Not sure why. Once it was installed, I see no reason to pay the extra money for the wall connector. I leave the adapter plugged into the socket and unplug that from the...

More copper line than you need is probably normal. The last thing you want to do is have to splice it. And what no one has mentioned is you probably need to order the 14-50 adapter before you order the car in order to get it in time. You got good advice. Don't use an extension cord...

I expected it to be a lot worse than it is from the posts on the board. It's not like it swerves. It just seems to drift a bit.

It's gotta be the steering wheel sensor. My SR+ bugs me after a couple of curves if I am not exerting some pressure. I have probably driven 500 miles using it in the couple of weeks I had the car. Your call if you want that fixed ;)

Thank you for replying! I was getting stressed and considering unplugging before bed. I think I’m ok. It’s very warm to the touch but from your reply and reading online I think I am ok leaving it plugged in. The outlet itself isn’t warm at all. And I can hold on to adapter. The rest is about...

Thanks! That makes sense. Another question. How hot is the cord and that Tesla box supposed to get? It’s been charging a couple of hours and it is heating pad hot. Is that normal?

people were advising that I should generally leave the 14-50 adapter plugged in? Which part? Just the short little cord and unplug it from the long Tesla cord or the whole Tesla cord and adapter? If just the short cord, isn’t it dangerous to leave a plugged in open cord just hanging there...

Auto pilot (at least in the US) does not include summon and auto park. You need FSD (Full Self Driving for that).

The same thing is happening to me. Got 130 supercharger miles today and was charged 350. I’m not understanding the kw thing

So I just supercharged again. My car went up 130 miles in the tank and it charged me for 350. And this time I was away from the car with everything off. Gonna have to use the chat with Tesla to see what is going on. And I don’t trust the plug in my garage. It’s loose and not reliable. Last night...

I have the sr+ with 18 inch Aero wheels. But I was just reading another thread and I see I am doing to regen wrong. I bet that is a big part of the problem. Home charging goes in Thursday and then I won’t be so worried. Just need to be able to get through my 100 mile Monday’s with enough charge...

Yes! I am sitting in there with the a/c blasting while super charging. I wouldn’t think that would account for 100 supercharger miles though. Next time I supercharge I will try to survive with it off and see if it tracks exactly. My 2 miles round trip that I just drove gently used up 5 miles of...

Oh. I’m definitely pounding the accelerator. I drove a Prius before this. The speed is thrilling. Anyone experienced the supercharger miles used not matching what Tesla says?

First, I LOVE THIS CAR!!! I am having a couple of issues. First, it is not getting the mileage that it says it should. I feel like it’s off by like 50%. It’s hot here in AZ. The ac is running continuously when I am driving with the fan at 7. Could that be what is causing the battery drain? Is...

The whole process is incredibly frustrating. I spent way too much time trying to predict things from the chart on this site but I think Kognos is generally correct for cars ordered in the last few weeks in the USA. I got a delivery notice via text before the VIN but VIN within a couple of...

I did all that before with the vin and it dropped by $1000 from what they originally offered but this has been sitting there as final for 2 weeks and just changed. I will see if my sales person can get it back. Its only $400 bucks but that was literally the tax saving against selling it for...

Ordered my car on May 23rd through a showroom rep. She said Tesla offered 10,400 for my car. I shopped it around and decided I could live with that. It said 10,400 on my account page forever with pending because they were waiting for the payoff info. Today I got assigned a vin and a delivery...

Got the vin within minutes of scheduling delivery which was done within minutes of text saying car was on a truck for delivery. I could have picked up the car within 2 days but scheduled for 5 days out.

Got a text that my black/black/aero/ap was on the truck and to schedule delivery. I set it for saturday but could have gone as early as wednesday. Vin showed up (it is in the 398,000 range) but I am still waiting on them to enter the pay off on my trade in and get me the final numbers so I can...

Thank you all! I think I actually get it! Bid I got for the 14-50 installed was $1350. Is it just me or is that insane? It’s a 90 foot run from the electrical box.

When you are looking at rates be sure to check the rate for 100 bucks less. I saved .75 on the rate because I happened to ask what bring it in at 1000 less would do and figured out that they jump on the 5’s. At least for b of a.

Dang it. I was following until you all used the phrase "UMC." Here is what I want to be able to do. Charge at superchargers (I travel a lot), Charge at stations that take the J1772 (and any other super popular plug type I would find in Hilton or Marriot parking garages) and charge from a...

Thank you! I think I understand. One last question: If I get the wall charger (wasn't planning on it because its just a one car garage), do I still need to buy the NEMA 14-50 to use with the wall charger? Without the wall charger i sounds like I need 2 NEMA 14-50s, 5-15 and a heavy duty...

I'm really excited to get my car but I can't understand charging to save my life. I am going to get a Nema 14-50 outlet in my house. I know I will sometimes need to charge on the road and at hotels and all those plugs look different (and pretty quickly after I get my M3 SR+). Do I have to buy...

And troubling if you are trying to beat the tax deadline.

I'm with you bmeeks. Ordered SR+ the same day. I can't remember the last time I was so excited for something. And my outside finance company says they need 2 days to finance it AFTER they have the details (you know, like the price and a VIN number), so there will be no car for me this week...

Where did you get the floor center rear seat console? That looks useful.
