    Wow, I've missed quite a bit since my last visit here. It's nice to catch up on the reading with many familiar folks, and some new people. I just wanted to share the Electric Vehicle Association of Alberta's new real-time GHG emissions calculator with you all - thought you might find it...

    The BBQ at the service center was good. I'm surprised TMC got missed in the advertising (I'll take some of that blame). Around 34 Teslas and a handful of EVs came. Tesla mentioned a couple hundred M3's coming by end of month, so that's exciting! FYI they now have a performance M3 for test drives.

    I very much regret not getting any Xpel on my car. I would suggest you also get the A-pillars (I have a couple of chips).

    Tesla Owners in Alberta

    Rock chips are a valid concern. A couple of YEG owners who choose to pick up in Calgary arranged for Xpel to get installed in Calgary before driving the car back. My personal belief is that I wouldn't hesitate to have it delivered to your home. Tesla will (with almost all certainty, but I'm...

    I've been told that both Coach works and Doug's Place have been told to be prepared for work on new model 3's right after delivery.whether it's scratches or paint mismatch or something else, I wasn't given a reason.

    Car Show 'Poster' for Center Screen

    I have my car at car shows regularly, and I noticed many ICE vehicles have a poster outside describing features of the vehicle.

    I still have the unused Arachnid 21" Silver wheels w/Pilot Super Sport tires (referral prize) for sale. I want to stick with my 19s, but if I don't find someone to take these off my hands soon, they'll likely end up on my car in a week or two :-) Thus I'm lowering the price: $4000 obo - the 21...

    So while at the Sunday Social, I managed to pick up 4 extra passengers... Arachnid 21" Silver wheels w/Pilot Super Sport tires (referral prize). I'm sticking with my 19s, so am looking to sell these. Thinking $4500 (the 21 turbines are $6000, so I think this is a good price?).

    You might be in luck even if you come after they are locked (and I'm not certain what time that is). The construction crew said they might be done by tonight. No idea if that means the keypad will be functional, but one can hope. Use the north entrance...

    Currently, the Edmonton Supercharger gets locked away at night (landlord locks the manual gates to the parking lot). It seems Tesla may be planning on replacing one of the gates with something owners could open up, as the Nav entry for the supercharger shows a 4 digit code.

    Improved Android/Android Wear car control

    @Allante - I am sorry, but I've moved on from the tasker approach to using 3rd party apps and have since lost track of the tasker profile... The app I use (autoally) hasn't gotten the battery level to work (at least for me...), but heat and honk work, which is what I was most interested in.

    As I don't think it was really mentioned yet, but if you order now, 'odds are' you won't see the car for 1+ years. So, you could put the money down for a Model 3, and then go and get into a new car today. When that car hits its 18 month mark, it could coincide nicely with your Model 3...

    Adroid Apps

    Ha, I had done exactly the same thing (well, same end result, I'm sure we took different approaches). And it worked... but having an app do it was just more convenient in the end (and also quicker to get to the car).

    Adroid Apps

    I use AutoAlly daily... or rather, I use one specific widget it includes, "Turn Heat On". One tap on my home screen now gets my car warm, no longer do I need to wait for the Tesla app to (maybe) launch. Green1 has a point about security/privacy... make up your own mind on that one.

    I've only been to the Hope SC 4 times... but one of those times, it was full, six cars (including me, last spot) were charging. Shortly after, a Model X left, freeing up a spot, and then a bit later an S left, so it was back to 4 in use, but for about 10 minutes, it was full :-)
