    Supercharger - Miami - SW 8th St, FL

    I have charged here a few times. It's okay - it's the only charger near downtown Miami FL that has some free parking (30 minutes) - otherwise $6 charge from 31 to 1 hour. I seriously don't understand why they don't upgrade these old 72kw chargers to 250kw already... Lucid has setup chargers...

    Anyone wondering about the "Coming Soon" Supercharger Stations in Florida?

    Does anyone know why downtown Miami, FL has such poor supercharger coverage and technology (e.g: 72kw chargers, parking required etc). No 250KW near here unless you drive 10 miles out. I wish they would just deploy a 250KW charger in Little Havana area...

    Traded in my Model 3 Performance

    I love the charger but man I wouldn't have traded in a car with the best residual value and lowest operating costs long term for a hotrod that will depreciate like crazy and not get software updates.

    Interior door anti scuffing kick-mat or vinyl protection stickers?

    wow that really looks great with the carbon fiber! I was leaning towards the blended black but your pictures are making me reconsider. I'm surprised BASENOR has poor reviews on amazon; I do agree that it looks to be exactly the same product just 'relabeled' as its common for chinese goods? :dunno:

    Interior door anti scuffing kick-mat or vinyl protection stickers?

What is everyone using to prevent scuff...
