    Connect Wall Charger to new home WiFi?

    I recently set up my home with a new mesh network. I no longer have the "quick start guide" for my Tesla Wall Charger, so I don't have the password to my Tesla Wall Connector's wifi network. How can I change the WiFi info so my Tesla Wall Connector connects once again to my home Wifi?

    Master Thread: 3 Delivery experiences

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I’ve never had to wait 30 seconds for a backup camera to come on. I don’t believe this is a widespread problem or else it would be a known issue and major complaint on Teslas. Almost everyone here test drove and/or ordered their Tesla before the new chip was even announced. I wonder how many...

    Purchasing a Model 3 in Texas? Here's a checklist that might help!

    Yeah, as a Texan I was just super-curious as to what the OP thought was essential for Texas owners.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    The thing is, Tesla is always incrementally making changes. When that hold comes off, there will be new cooled seats. When that hold comes off they will have new colors options. When that hold comes off they will put in larger screens. You will always be getting a car right before something new...

    Would you get another Model 3?

    Get another Model 3, but don’t lease it. I’ve leased dozens of cars but the Tesla lease is one of the worst deals in the industry, even without the ridiculous resale values (which make it worse). Check out Leasehackr.com and get super educated on leases before you sign onto another 36-month...

    I don’t think payment form had much to do with it. From what I am seeing most of us in Texas are now mid-January, especially with white interior.

    Test drive 2021 Model S LR

    Just set up a test drive thru Tesla. You can go down to their location on 183, and they will remotely open/start as many cars as you want to test drive, giving you 30 minutes with each.

    Selling my 2020 model 3: where can I sell it?

    Yes, actually, used car prices are up since November, with projections that they will rise another 3% when the December numbers are out. Big article in the WSJ today about how used car prices are not expected to recede until middle of next year. I just sold my car to Shift.com (which I had...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    There is zero chance - zero - that they will do a retroactive point-of-purchase refund for people who bought electric cars. The bill is an incentive, and they definitely aren't going to go back and give out checks to people who bought the car prior to the bill going into effect. What's more, it...

    I would start plugging that VIN into Carvana, Shift, Vroom, etc. You can probably take delivery then flip it off to one of these resellers for a profit.

    My date has been bumping back and forth from December to February. I ended up selling my trade-in locally today, and had my agent take that off the order. Not sure if this will affect delivery date, we'll see.

    Significant increase in trade in value of my current ICE from Tesla [Dec 2021]

    TL;DR Sold my used SUV to Shift.com for a crazy inflated price. Worth checking out if you are trading in... I had a 2015 Chevy Tahoe 4WD with 65,000 miles on it. I was going to trade it in to Tesla (who offered $29,000), but with my estimated delivery date for the Model 3 shifting between...

    Electrician to Install Wall Connector in Austin

    I went with "Smart Charge America". Their prices were expensive as other quotes, but they give you all the incentive forms so you can quickly get your rebate from Austin Energy. Between that the the federal tax credits, my net installation cost was very low.

    In the manual. it says you need to drive about 25 miles first to calibrate the cameras: https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_us/GUID-EDA77281-42DC-4618-98A9-CC62378E0EC2.html Put it on a well marked highway and drive about 10-12 miles and it will probably calibrate quickly.

    40 amp maximum?

    -I get local incentives from the utility that offset the extra cost of a Tesla Wall Connector. -Not every electrician I've talked to has mentioned the 40 amp max. If I go with someone who doesn't recognize a possible limitation, I risk burning down my house. I was just asking to see what other...

    40 amp maximum?

    Well, my "main" panel is on the outside of the house, but on the opposite side of the house from the garage. The subpanel in the garage is full of 20amp breakers. They said they could install a 50 or 60, but it would require new wiring from that outdoor panel to the garage, and that triples the...

    40 amp maximum?

    Getting quotes for installing a Tesla Wall connector. One of the electricians asked for photos of my panels before quoting and after looking said that I could only do a 40-amp breaker in my current panel. I was hoping for a 50 or 60, but since that isn’t possible, should I still go with the...

    Saw my first Polestar on the road

    I've heard about Polestar, but when I went to the web page, I was taken aback at how ugly the cars looked. They did nothing for me. I was out in California over Thanksgiving and actually saw one on the road. And then later the same day I stumbled upon a Tesla-style showroom in a mall in...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I got bumped from from a similar time frame to late Jan/early Feb (OD 11/5, Austin, TX). I still think that with people passing on 2020 deliveries, it might still shift back to December. The dates seem very fluid and it wouldn't surprise me to log in tomorrow and find a VIN.

    Give a few days. I went through the same thing - ordered Model 3LR on 10/30 and had an April delivery date, but when I went back to the website, it was still advertising a December delivery date. I thought it was a major bait-and-switch. But after a couple of days to a week or so, it updated...
