    For Sale: The Bandit License Plate Holder V2

    Hey everyone, just received delivery of The Bandit license plate holder and my wife has decided she prefers the stock Tesla front plate setup. Who am I to argue? o_O https://www.1975creations.com/ bracket can be found here. I have to say I'm very impressed with the quality and durability. I'm...

    Aftermarket Add-Ons

    I have the abstract screen protector and like you I’ve opted not to install because the factory screen film is just that good. I’m hoping it stays on forever!

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    That's actually not too bad. Last year I waited almost 6 months for the rebate on my X (including them tracking down my cheque after issuing it to the wrong address!).

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    I just phoned them - they told me not to worry about the previous vehicles as long as they are outside of this calendar year and I did keep them for the minimum duration of the program. I was concerned about getting them a copy of the registration for the Model S I purchased in 2013 but no...

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    Question for those of you who have received a rebate in the past... There is a section requesting info on the vehicles you have received a rebate for previously, including registration date. In the guide it also says to include a scan of registration for those vehicles (I don’t have...

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    I'm sure its just the mailbox reaching its file limit. I'm willing to bet that our government is running their servers using 2 dixie cups tied together with dental floss. Lets be patient :)

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    Has anyone figured out what their RIN number is and where to find it? Both my name and my wifes are on the vehicle, if that makes a difference.

    International Centre delivery experiences

    I brought my bank draft, insurance, void cheque for payments. Did not bring the signed paperwork - they’ll have that ready for you to sign.

    International Centre delivery experiences

    My wife and I picked up our white Model 3 this evening. 5:30 delivery slot. My wife arrived on time, checked in, and was greeted by our delivery specialist, James. I made it just a few minutes late. James immediately showed us the green plates we would be receiving and asked us if we would...

    PPF and Ceramic coding place in GTA east?

    Do you have info on that group buy in Oakville? Am interested, had a quote from Evelyn as well but they are quite far from me.

    M3 June 1st picking - prep list due to lack of communications from ISA

    I have my delivery this evening. I haven't received my bill of sale. My insurance provider had requested it and apparently the order details document was sufficient enough. I worked out payment with a finance specialist at Tesla previously, just bringing a bank draft with me. Does anyone know...

    Rust protection?

    Yeah I think I'll look into Rust Check and Krown towards the end of the summer. IIRC, they drill access holes so they can coat the interior of door panels. I'm going to look at the Model 3 when I pick mine up to see what kind of access is available. Definitely don't want any holes drilled.
  16. DSJ

    Rust protection?

    The Model 3 is a mix of aluminum and steel. I'll likely have mine rustproofed.

    Waiting for delivery in Ontario

    For those of you who are taking delivery soon and still haven't received docs... have you already received insurance slips? Our insurance agent said she can't generate the policy until we have the docs available.

    Poll for Model 3 Front License Plate holders

    Ordered a Bandit, but it likely won't be delivered for a while. Going to go without a plate until then and just hope when I'm pulled over the officer is kind. I've gotten 2 tickets for not having plates displayed on my X already... :(

    Any RECENT calls re: VIN/Delivery?

    I just received an update. 31st delivery date at international center. Was previously noted as Oakville. I’m not unhappy with that - just want the car :) 31st might not work for us so hopefully other dates/times work.

    Any RECENT calls re: VIN/Delivery?

    I guess you could say I’m growing concerned. I configured immediately. VIN was assigned in first batch. Delivery profile complete. Was given my pickup location last week (Oakville) and that hasn’t changed yet. But I still don’t have a delivery time or date and keep being told it will be coming...

    AWD and AWD+P price and spec released last night, are those worth waiting for?

    In my opinion, both AWD and AWD P are bringing this car into a price segment in which the Model 3 won’t be competitive from a ride/handling/sportiness perspective alone. Elon seems to think it will handle better than a BMW M3 - I think he’s setting some of us up for disappointment unfortunately...

    GTA Delivery Date Waiting Room

    VIN is not there. I can click Manage on my Model 3, it shows my delivery profile being complete, but no VIN on that page either. Just an RN #.

    GTA Delivery Date Waiting Room

    Has anyone’s VIN disappeared and been replaced with their RN number? I’m very surprised to see this - VIN just disappeared today despite the fact that my delivery profile is complete and I had previously been given a pickup destination (Oakville) from my delivery contact (Denzel). All I was...

    Ontario Delivery Phone Call

    Received a phone call. VIN issued last week. Was informed that vehicle is on its way from California and that my wife and I should expect delivery at the end of May or early June. Other than that, need to complete insurance + financing forms.

    Any Canadian VIN assignments?

    Just got my VIN. White. Aero. EAP. Owner. Configured March 29th. VIN 23XXX. VINs are random, right?

    Any Canadian VIN assignments?

    No VIN assigned yet. Ordered March 29th, white, aero, EAP. Spoke to Tesla CS rep on Monday April 2nd and was told would be assigned VIN in 2-3 weeks.

    Ontario EV Rebates Cancelled July 11, 2018

    I think you're right. Personally, I'm treating the rebate as if it has a very very small window of opportunity left. I hope I'm wrong but I like to to prepare for the worst.

    Question for Model X Owners

    I was leaning towards the six seat option - doesn't the 3rd row fold down flush now?

    Question for Model X Owners

    I keep hearing great things about the HEPA filter/bioweapon mode and I'm excited to drive it tomorrow and experience it for myself. I actually have a P85D loaner at the moment as my vehicle is at the service center for a new 12v battery, so I used the heated steering wheel tonight and loved it...

    Question for Model X Owners

    Thanks for the detailed reply! I'm now debating as to whether or not the 22" wheels are something I'd want. My experience with my 21's wasn't so great, however the black 22's look amazing. Did you opt for the ultra high fidelity sound package? And am I the only one who thinks the 20" silver...

    Question for Model X Owners

    Awesome! Thanks for the input. How long have you had your X? Any quality issues?

    Question for Model X Owners

    I think I will find the ride height/comfort level more to my liking with the X. I'm not a big guy, but I've been sitting in the S for almost 4 years and think that moving up a bit would be nice. I doubt the FWD will open in my garage as well, but I'll find out tomorrow when I bring home the...

    Question for Model X Owners

    Thanks! Exactly the type of response I was looking for. I'm not in need of a very large vehicle, it would mainly be my wife and I in the X with friends occasionally in tow. No kids at the moment. I'm leaning towards a 75kWh loadout as that is certainly enough range for 99.9% of my driving...

    Question for Model X Owners

    Hi guys and gals. I currently have a 2013 P85+ that has retained its equity better than anticipated. I am looking to roll that equity in the purchase of a new Tesla - but I'm not sure if I should buy an X or another S. I'm looking for some feedback on the X and what your experiences have been...

    Model S sightings in Ontario

    That may have been me! Although, I certainly hadn't drank a coffee yet, so I could have still been disoriented.

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Absolutely! Once I've got each of these items completed, I'll post photos of my setup so others can reference it. Great idea. As for my stencil, it was provided to me by our corporate team (and I do have to return it) but I can provide photos and dimensions to anyone who requests them.

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Hi Everyone! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you regarding the chargers at my location. We opened on November 17th and life has been quite hectic since then. I've worked 29 days straight now - the only thing keeping me running is Tim's coffee. As stated above, we have 2 x 60amp SCH...

    Winter Tire Options

    It's a solid combo - No I didn't get TPMS, I can do without it. I really don't see the point in dropping another $500 when a circle check can tell me if my tires are good. I understand why some want the TPMS though. I don't have a total yet but Kal Tire will discount whatever price you see on...

    Winter Tire Options

    http://www.klassemotorsports.ca/Styles/Apex/Matte-Black They weigh in at 30lbs. Went with matte black to match my black exterior. I'm not huge on branding on wheels (outside of Tesla's, of course) so I might matte out the Apex logo in the center cap.

    Winter Tire Options

    I just ordered the Hakka R2 on Apex Klasse wheels from Kal Tire. Tons of research went into my decision and I just felt like the Hakka R2's are the best of the best. Best of luck and safe winter driving to all in the upcoming months!

    meeting with an auto journalist on Friday...

    One thing I find surprises people - the amount of storage space the Model S has. I like to hit on that when showing the vehicle to friends and family. It tends to get overlooked.

    Mods to my car if you're interested.

    Can you post a link to the leather/carbon fiber simulated floor mats? Those look really nice. Thanks.

    Burlington Marques D'Elegance, need more Teslas next year!

    Wow, that's quite the turnout. If I had of known about it, I would have loved to attend! We should definitely organize something for next year. I think by then there will be quite a few more of us to join in :smile:

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Thanks for the well wishes! On your congratulations... a) I think our business has improved vastly over the last 5 or so years, but there is still much to be improved upon. Perks for guests (like this one) are definitely something I'm proud we are getting into. b) I will continue to push this...

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Milton is a growing town and although I am very watchful of trends and consumer habits in our area, there isn't a need for more than 2 CS-90's at our restaurant. I see this being the case for at least the first few years. I was (and still am) very hesitant to ask for more capacity or to push the...

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    I definitely agree. Our average guest does not stay long enough to recuperate significant KM's through charging at 30A. 90A is a different ball game. You'd be surprised at some of the data that I've seen on 30A charging - the conclusion is that drivers stay longer and tend not to give up on the...

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Thanks! We certainly do need more high power charging options. I'd love to speak to local businesses, but I understand that chargers, associated install costs (especially post-construction), and utilities do add up tremendously. You're always welcome at my restaurants for some timbits...
