I didn’t care for the heavy truck look of weather tech, shopped around and found these. Love them... autailors.com

Glovebox and home safe. In Ohio, the state provides two copies of your registration; one with and one without your address. Obviously, the one without your address stays in the car.

Just the opposite for me last month. Had the Homelink sent to SA at the store who had it installed upon delivery. Maybe a regional thing. Pretty friendly interaction here in the Midwest. Don’t know...?

It must be hit or miss. My sales advisor asked me to ship accessories to his attention so that they would be installed and ready upon delivery. Exactly what you requested. Perhaps it’s up to the individual stores. Not an unreasonable request for a $50k+ investment. But it shouldn’t be an...

Sounds like Tesla should consider allowing a primary and secondary form of payment on account, similar to PayPal.

New owner here. Wondering if Tesla.com Store traditionally offers any Black Friday sales? Coming from BMW and local dealer (and online) annually had Black Friday sales for merchandise and gear.

Rekindling the issue... on a 30 day old 2020 Model 3. If I manually open the trunk from the latch button, no light. If I use the app or open from inside the car, (or close and reopen manually) I have trunk lights. Sounds like a service call?

Just picked up my Model 3 LRAWD with Auto Pilot (not FSD) Thursday 10/15. I’ve gone through all the videos ahead of time, but my “auto lane change” doesn’t appear to be working. During auto steer, I initiated the turn signal and nothing happens. Thoughts?

You should call Cricket technical support and ask if they are blocking certain firewall ports, or have any restrictions. Especially Mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) riding on prime carriers network (ATT/Cricket, Verizon/Visible). There is a reason why the MVNO's are cheaper. Good...

If you financed through Tesla, they probably financed you through a true bank like US Bank, who actually holds the title. Tesla has been paid by US Bank. I suggest calling the bank and getting them to send you a copy of the title. Tesla no longer has the title.

From my Tesla loan agreement, “There are no loan origination fees or pre-payment penalties associated with this loan offer.”

I ran into the same issue with my credit union in Columbus, Ohio. They will not finance Tesla’s because of this issue. I ended up going through Tesla, who financed through US Bank at the advertised 2.49% rate.

I used this site to determine when to order. It was amazing to watch the shift from Europe shipments to USA shipments for Model 3 factory builds. As soon as USA shipments started raising, I ordered. It peaked around 1,300 new Model 3s for USA in early September. Good news is next peak should be...

Got a text today from Tesla to pick my delivery date/time anytime between 10/13 - 10/15. So pretty accurate.

I have my VIN and based upon this decoder, mine is considered a 2020. VIN Decoder – TeslaTap

I checked with my SA when I saw this on my app. I didn’t give him the dates, I wanted to see if he said the same thing. The app said 10/8 - 10/14, my SA said 10/12 - 10/20. So pretty close. I ordered Homelink to be installed upon delivery, so I believe my SA accounted for the hardware to be...

This is strange... using my mobile phone web browser I logged on to my account and saw an estimated delivery date. However, if you turn the phone landscape or us a pc/laptop the date is not visible. Only visible on phone in portrait.

Same here in Columbus, Ohio. Showed in inventory, I pressed “buy” completed financing and got the, “We are drafting up your contract and will contact you when you can make your final payment.” I called my SA, he checked and said the car was coming off the factory line. I got a VIN two days...

Prefer under $150, else I can purchase an extender.

As we enter mid-September, delivery for Model 3 now shifting from 2-4 weeks to 1-11 weeks. @pjensen observations seem to track. Builds for the America’s starting to slow as they prepare to shift back to Europe by October 1. Model 3 inventory for America’s highest its been for weeks.

Three months out from defecting from BMW after 20+ years and was searching for experiences from other former BMW owners and stumbled across this thread... ROFL. Can’t wait to see the new 2021 BMW autonomous lineup...!

Love that line...! Okay, so far, two votes “buy” for a number of legit reasons. I guess we will all experience the “post warranty” period together! I just hope, unlike other technologies (iPhone, TV’s, etc), the Model 3 retains a reasonable resale value after warranty. I’m in no rush with 3...

As a current BMW owner looking to convert, I have leased and purchased BMW’s over the last 25 years. From that experience, I have learned that an “out of warranty” BMW can cost $2k+ per year to maintain (on top of normal wear, $125 oil changes, tires, $300 detailing, etc.). For that reason...

As a current BMW owner for over 20 years, looking to convert, I totally agree! Having a BMW outside of warranty period is a money pit. I’m VERY curious what Tesla owners experience AFTER the 4 year, 50,000 mile warranty. When things fail, what are the costs?

I ordered my Model 3 at the easton center. I am not aware that is was a special order. It came less ten days after the order. Would that imply it was not a special order? So about the Sales Advisor... should i just call the dealership and ask for a sales advisor. My salesman didn't even answer...

I suggest not purchasing any used M3 with more than 10,000 miles. That’s 20% of the warranty as it is. Being in the Cincinnati area, are you sure you don’t want AWD? Patience young skywalker...!

I am seeing 2020 M3 with 3,000 miles listed as “Used” on Tesla existing inventory website. The price appears to be $3,000 less than “new” vehicles. Are these demo cars? Returns? At first I thought the higher loan rate (4% v. 2.5%) for a “used” vehicle would not be worth it, but calculated a...

Planning to take delivery in December 2020. Curious whether the all season tires that come with the 19 inch wheels are adequate for winter driving in the Midwest and Northeast? Should I plan to purchase a separate set of winter tires and wheels to swap with the seasons? Thoughts?

Columbus, using the Easton Store.

Thanks for weighing in. I’m also in Ohio and thought Tesla allows you to finance the sales tax if you want? Good to know, so I can plan the right amount of out of pocket cash.

Sales Advisor (SA). I’m also in Columbus, Ohio. My understanding is that “referrals” for Super Charging (SC) is not allowed in Ohio, however, factory incentives like SC are fine. Depending on how you ordered (online direct, or through Easton Sales Center) I would push for the SC incentive that...

You may have sealed my decision to longer consider purchasing a used M3 with FSD (Tesla website) or a new factory order w/o FSD. That sounds like the same risk as purchasing from an individual owner.

Curious what financial firm is offering 3 months deferred payment? I’m in a similar situation, coming off a lease in December.

Has anyone been able to pick up on a pattern of when incentives become available, like free supercharging, or changes in interest rates? I’m speculating end of quarters, or end of months. I heard free supercharging was offered on M3’s Fall 2019. I haven’t been looking long enough to tell.

Is this on the Tesla website? The amount financed is greyed out for me.

Thanks for the confirmation!

Thanks... good to know!

The Tesla website calculator and payment estimator requires state sales tax to be paid upfront in addition to the down payment for Tesla’s loan option. Other manufacturers typically finance the sales tax. Is this normal for Tesla to not finance the sales tax? Is that not an option when...

Thanks for the response. I hate all these “hidden” fees... just be transparent.

I test drove a M3 and was provided the Payment Estimator. My SE was really busy so we didn’t have a lot of time to review. After running the numbers, I discovered a $1,200 increase between the “configured” price versus the “vehicle” price with no explanation in the Cash and Loan sections of the...
