    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enable for one month trial this week

    Got 2024.3.10 today with free FSD. Tested it out for about 5 miles no freeway. Not convinced to pay for this yet, i had to take over 3 times over that drive but it's definitely usable. Since I will be a beta tester, I would probably pay for this if I can transfer FSD to my subsequent teslas...

    3 bottles of RBF 660 bleeding brakes and still have no brakes.

    I think you are right. I haven't done my tesla brakes yet but I did my BMW brakes 4 months ago, BMW software (ISTA) also wants you to bleed brake calipers from closest first. Flushing is a different step.

    Tesla Model Y front engine dead after 3 weeks

    Same thing happened to me. Model 3LR was 2 weeks old, front motor died. Tesla took 2 weeks to repair due to parts but they gave me a loaner car. All good now. Dont sweat it.

    Vendor Carbon Fiber Rims Are Ready to Roll!...

    Agreed. This is priced accordingly. Waiting fitment for other cars though, hopefully 19x9 and 19x10 at around 17lbs also. Considering my other car's 19" wheel is at 24lbs each, i would really feel the difference with these on.

    Increase in home electric bills

    I'm also on SDGE and recently changed my plan to EVTOU5. They charge $16 fee every month for this plan but they only charge 10 cents per kwh during the super off peak hours. This plan worked for me, my bill only added about $10 a month charging my tesla. Check it out on their website, see if...

    Dead Polestar 2 at Enterprise Rent-A-Car

    My M3LR got me stranded at Mcdonalds with 500 miles on the odometer last Feb. Got it towed, took 2 weeks to get repaired. Front motor was replaced. Things happen.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I dont know about you but both my 2022 tesla model 3 and 2019 M2 competition looks the same (M2 is orange, gray is tesla). And no, i am definitely not trying to squeeze my phone in there as you can see in the picture. Look, I'm not trying to defend tesla here. I'm just sharing my experience so...

    First time Tesla owner's initial impressions. Ordering, delivery, driving.

    BMW fan here, also first EV owner. Still have my '19 M2 and '13 335i and i do agree about the new BMW design, not for me anymore either. We sold our G20 BMW for the M3LR and never regret it. I've never really felt any connection with the new BMWs weather exterior design or in driving, I feel...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Not really sure. In my case, my delivery location is in Carlsbad, CA and my order date was first week of December. Before all these, my EDD has shrunk from 1 month to 2 weeks, then 10 days then a phone call regarding my trade in and got my vin 2 days after. I also read here previously from a...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    From my experience here in SoCal, our vin was posted on the app after 2 days of receiving the call for trade in. I then completed all the predelivery tasks after receiving vin, then 2 days later, received a call again to schedule delivery.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    You are correct. I said Li-ION and not Li-IRON.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    From my limited understanding, I think the LiFe batteries are used for the main drive (high voltage) and the 12V battery is either AGM or lithium ion. As of now, only standard model 3 gets the LiFe.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Help me decide: Model Y or Mach-E

    Thanks for this. I have my other cars with suspension upgrades, one of which has been through 3 different brand sets of coilovers because I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for on the first two. Although this will be my daily drive, handling is also very important to me in many ways.

    Help me decide: Model Y or Mach-E

    New member here, just ordered Model 3 LR beginning of Dec. I was looking for a Mach E before ordering the Tesla, but the traditional dealership experience turned me off. First, they have $5k markup, then the have all kinds of over priced additions that added about $10k to the price lol. Got...
