    Battery Degradation question

    Thanks for the helpful info. We tend to have cars a long time. We had a Honda CRV in our family for 16 years. So, I'd hope our M3LR will last this long.

    Battery Degradation question

    Been following a lot of the posts on charging. Just a general question, there seems to be a lot of variability on charging depending on needs/situation. Seems clear that at least calendar aging benefits from keeping a low SOC and shallow depth of charges. But, in the long run, assuming you don't...

    Tire Rotation cost.

    Just had a tire rotation done at America's Tire. The rotation was free, but $40.00 if you want balancing. I guess YMMV at America's Tire if balancing is free or not. Probably did not need to have it done since the tech stated the tires were all OK.

    Rapid tire wear

    This is anecdotal, but my 2022 M3LR with 4000 miles and the stock Michelins has less tread than my wife's 2018 Mercedes GLA250 with 25K miles on the stock Continentals. Our son has a 2021 M3LR with 13K, and his Michelins will need replacement soon.

    Wiring the Final Payment

    Picked up our M3LR last February. As I recall, through the tesla app, the money transfer happened very fast. What caught me off guard was that the $ were transferred to Tesla in full 2 days before we saw or picked up the car. Fortunately there were no problems. No compromise occurred as far as...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Have my new M3LR for 3 days now. Wife got a set of weather proof floor mats from Amazon for $60 that look and fit well for the price. No problem with placing over the existing mats.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Just adding my experience here. OD 11/27/2021. LR/White/Black/Aero no FSD. Have had multiple changes in EDD that I haven't kept track of. A few times EDD was late December and then changed. Once got the message to "prepare for delivery" with nothing actionable. Most recently had EDD had EDD...
