You realize if you're someone who is going from a Model 3 or Y to an older S or X...the pain I encountered as unbearable.

Also, MCU 2 is absolutely worth it. Coming from a Model 3 and it was driving me nuts with the lag.

Good news. After arguing way more than should have been needed with the SC - one of the managers called back and agreed that I had it right. They refunded $500.

I’m being charged $2k for the MCU2 upgrade although my X already had FSD computer (and package) at time of the MCU upgrade. (Stop sign/stop lights, etc and said Full Self Driving Computer on the screen. The Tesla website mentions all AP 2.0 and 2.5 are $2,000 and all others are $1,500. They’re...

Can’t be right. AP -> FSD has been consistently $10k. There’s no mention of a 30-50% fleet wide discount.

Took delivery of our 2017 X100D. I was shocked to see the car was pristine externally. Not even a scratch or rock chip anywhere on it. Equally as perfect inside. The leather is spotless. Came with 4 brand new tires. Delivered with FSD installed. The screens look like they were upgraded too. Just...

I’m looking forward to it for sure. I get delivery tomorrow on it. Felt kind of crazy paying $69k for a used car but it has it all - Subzero, PUP, HEPA, Hi-Fi Sound, 6 seats, Carbon Fiber, and Uncorked, and currently FSD 2.5. Only items missing are infotainment upgrade, tow hitch, and the...

Good point. Will check TeslaCPO.io to see if that was removed. I know mine is uncorked.

This happened the night Elon mentioned about the FSD roll-out. I’ve been in the process of selling our Model 3 (sold to Vroom) and was eyeing a 100D w/ FSD for a couple months now. When I realized this, the other night, I went ahead and bought the used ‘17 100D X based on my suspicion they...

LOL. Funny you mention it. My “other” car...happens to be Toyota Camry Hybrid. That car is currently dead out front (70k miles), with flat spots on the tires, because we neglected it and the Tesla is so much better to drive. You reminded me I need to call AAA to jump start it or put a new...

Just signed up. Will test it out for free-99 for 48 hours, and then take the refund. Can’t imagine this is worth 10% of the car price.

As a former BMW M3 owner, who grew up in a MB household, I find it amusing because after about 3-4 yrs, those cars spend plenty of time and money in the shop. That being said, our Model 3 after 10k miles required an RDU replacement (under full warranty). Not sure if it was because of how...

Honestly, I went in on it every (safe) chance I could. Tires are almost toast at just 8k miles.

They could They should lower the cost, but then ppl may start flooring it too much and more cars may ruin their RDU like I managed to under warranty...

Yet only on the 980 motor...

Auto-door open does sound legit.

Nice! Let us know! I returned my Tesla Boost a few months ago. Tried it out but it’s not for me. Car is quick already, but unless I’m getting Performance acceleration, I realized I just wasn’t going to be happy dropping $2k. I’ll look at a trade-in and use the $2k for that if the opportunity...

Repeated Service Required + Power Reduced Notifications Car felt like it was driving fine but started to make some strange noises when parked.

8,100 (I know, it’s stupid low. We both work from home though.)

Why would they still be replacing AWDs with 980s then? Doesn’t check out.

Can confirm the same. My July 2018 LR AWD RDU died and was just swapped out. Got a new 980 put in under warranty.

Someone start bugging Elon! Only a matter of time. Cater to his ego! Lol. “Elon, how you gonna let an external company hack into Tesla’s software, crack the code and offer a BETTER boost and performance option for half the price!” Crazy, cause I just got my 980 RDU replaced (maybe due to...

LOL

Wait till you Boost it...

Not true. I bought my 2018 LR AWD for $42.8k with 690 miles on it directly from Tesla. Problem is when they go live you gotta click it within minutes.

Someone hack the 980 and uncork it!

So we uncorking or what?

#UNCORK980s

Tesla just acknowledged it too with the latest sales model. It was only a matter of time till this occurred. It was kind of bogus to have a secret upgrade option, as if we’re ordering a taco with special sauce. They just turned the $2k “stealth” upgrade into a full on upgrade option, same cost...

Glad you mention the side by side aspect...and what is more equitable than an actual $ value: LR AWD + $2k after purchase gives you “Boost” but then if someone had known, and ordered LR AWD + $2k up front then its a Stealth version which is faster. Yet, they didn’t advertise this at all. You...

Should uncork to full potential like they did the Model S. They’re charging for it anyways. Might as well put the best vehicles out if they can do so safely.

We use auto-open, auto-close 24/7/365. And we reverse into our single space garage. So when we leave the rear faces the car. It’s been amazing. We pull into our community at the garage opens and mirrors fold. When we leave, we pull right out and mirrors open up as well, and garage closes behind...

Wish they would just stop messin around and allow an uncork for the 980 LR AWDs... Charge another $2k...or don’t...but just dew it!

Just get a stealth version instead.

There was just a few used P3D- sold on Tesla.com last night with not much more mileage. So seems to be accurate... I bought my 2018 LR AWD for $42.8k with 690 miles directly from Tesla.com. TeslaCPO.io - Search Tesla's Vehicle Inventory TeslaCPO.io - Search Tesla's Vehicle Inventory...

That’s my other car. Loved it before the Model 3 AWD+ took over the garage spot. All I do now is move it from parking space to parking space. Luckily rod bearings were swapped by 20k miles ago (during my ownership). Need to sell it at some point though...

I prefer “Diet P3D”

Must be. I had to stop the car to allow a passenger to recover after I floored it off a turn in my AWD+. Actually felt kind of bad cause of it!

Incredible write up. Really enjoyed reading. Just one thing (and maybe I’m reading incorrectly or too quickly): Using the 14-50 NEMA you aren’t technically getting “top charging speed” at home with the Gen 2 adapter. Your car is capable of 48amps (~44 miles/hr). You’d need a 60amp connection...

I use the hell out of my Homelink. I’d be pissed without it. (2018 AWD)

Ironic, I have the underline on my rear badge which came delivered to me like that...and I have an AWD+. Would much rather have the red underline in the software! Tesla is being extra stingy though... Although, this is now the second time my wife spilled her drink all over herself cause I had...

Can’t blame the guy. I have a tuned M3, and the Model 3 AWD+ is on another level. The 200 miles per tank of premium gas was also annoying as hell. This past month the Stats app said I saved $200 in gas...

I can’t seem to get used to it. I floored it after a full week of owning it and I got queasy, after eating a heavy meal before hand. Never once happened to me in my BMW M3 even launching it.

They’d flat bed tow it to the nearest Tesla service center (you tell them where you want it towed to). We have the 200 mile tow option and that’s exactly what I’d ask them to do. Have had to AAA tow: BMW 330Ci, BMW X3, BMW M3, and E320 CDI - all for various reasons and you just tell em where...

Glad I was able to pick up the 14-30. We unplug our dryer, and run the 14-30 w/ UMC from our laundry nook out to the garage. Works well when we need a higher charge rate.

Almost identical to what happened to me in my BMW M3 last year with my wife and 1 year old. 100+ miles from home. Hit a pothole at night, middle of the highway, and knew instantly the sidewall was gone. Couldn't patch it. Shops all closed up for the night. No tires anywhere. Checked into a...

I have a white one just like this with badging but no software. Uncork the 980s!

Uncork the 980s!

Does Stealth come with Sport mode? Or with Chill, Standard and Track mode? Otherwise that config is truly a unicorn. P3D AND accel boost? Something must have priority though. I can’t imagine both play nicely together.
