    Model 3 lease cost pre IRA?

    I am going with the lease because due to recent income changes I must offload my $1000/mn M3P payment. I can get a base 36mn lease with 15k miles/yr for just under $400/mn with $4500 down. That saves me $7200/yr in auto cost and I get to pull equity out of the M3P to help cushion this transition.

    Model 3 lease cost pre IRA?

    What was the Model SR 3 base lease cost before the IRA kicked in? Currently it is $349/mn with $4500 down, or $478/mn with $0 down. I am trying to determine if they are calculating in any benefit for the IRA tax rebate to the lessor.

    White spots on M3P spoiler

    I am about to get my second warranty replacement due to delamination. They were scheduled last week but the tech called and cancelled saying he damaged the replacement in transit. They replace a ton of these for delamination and adhesion to the car issues. They need to address it or move away...

    Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

    Thanks. I am watching this now to see if I can feel comfortable going with the Potenza at a $400 savings over the PS4S.

    Michelin PS4S on 20" 2019 wheels

    I see a lot of comments about the 235 sizing being undersized for the 9" Uber wheels. Does the same apply to the older style 20" wheels on my M3P? I am not sure of their width. If yes, what size should we be replacing with 245/35?

    Michelin Pilot Sport 4S

    I have read a few not so great comments on the Pirellis and in my experience with other sport cars they sucked. It appears I can order from Tire Rack. I was also looking at the GY Eagle F1 option as recommended in the recent tire write up on here.

    Vendor Tesla Model 3 Tires – Choosing the Right Tires for Your Needs

    Much thanks for this, it is exactly what I needed seeing the PS4S are unavailable and not being produced right now for replacement on my M3P. If going with the GY Supercar 3 option what is the best size for the 20" Performance wheels seeing 235/35-20 are not an option? There is 245/35 at 26.8"...

    FL home insurers that cover solar?

    No, but another agency, Gregg Blanchard Allstate, was able to get me a policy with Tower Hill. Contact info below. https://agents.allstate.com/gregg-blanchard-insurance-agency-north-palm-beach-fl.html

    Confused about charging in off-peak hours

    In the solar section of the app there is full control of TOU scheduling so the system knows when to store from solar and when to use it. So, all they would have to do is copy that to the vehicle section of the app. For solar users the vehicle should refer to the existing solar TOU schedule but...

    Confused about charging in off-peak hours

    Cleanest looking wireless dashboard phone charger

    I recently grabbed one of these off Alibaba. The kit was good and installed easy enough. The disappointing factor nobody mentions is the wireless charging is pretty low level at 670mA max on a Pixel 6 that gets 2440mA using my lighter outlet charger. For my use it just keeps the charge level...

    Scheduled Charging vs. Scheduled Departure

    And yet here we are still with lame functionality. This is such a simple fix. They just need to program full user control of scheduling in addition with a couple selections like TOU with the proper settings, not just "TOU end time" wtf good is that? I have their solar system that is setup for...

    I can't believe Tesla still hasn't resolved such a simple problem. I am all in on Tesla with car, solar. powerwalls and stock. This lack of attention floors me. It is so simple the most basic level app programmer could fix this in a couple days. We just need full scheduling control, plain and...

    Florida solar utility liability insurance requirements

    I am told that there is only one option right now after speaking to several agents. The premium with the new company that will cover solar is now 40% higher than I was paying with Edison at the same replacement value. The insurer is Tower Hill Preferred. My home was built in 2002 and I was told...

    FL home insurers that cover solar?

    Thanks for the info! Is the exclusion limited to compensation for damage to the PV, or does it extend to any damage they can claim was caused by the PV? For example the PV gets ripped off the roof and leave huge openings in the roof deck behind that result in further damage. Do they fix all of...

    FL home insurers that cover solar?

    I never considered it to be a factor especially since the agent never said a peep when we wrote the umbrella liability. This is likely a FL issue since we have very few options left as most underwriters have pulled out of the state due to hurricanes. The funny thing is that my house is more...

    FL home insurers that cover solar?

    A year after install of my Tesla solar I have been informed that Edison will cancel my policy since they will not cover a home with rooftop solar installed. My agent says there are very few options in S FL to choose from and that she will look for options, but that I may need to get covered with...

    Florida solar utility liability insurance requirements

    This has nothing to do with the liability coverage, separate insurer. South FL options for home insurance are dwindling and those still active are getting more restrictive. As of yet I have not found a new company that will insure a non coastal flood region home built in 2002 with a new metal...

    Florida solar utility liability insurance requirements

    New Tesla 15.12kW Solar / 4 Powerwall order in Orlando

    Thanks for the info! I talked to your Progressive agent. They only offer this type of policy for those who they hold the homeowner's policy for. So, I am having her do a full quote but I have a feeling they won't compete with my current HO policy through Edison. Will let you all know.

They all require it. I already have $300k for homeowner's, but the auto increase is going to cost...
