    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I’d be curious what the cost of a 50a circuit would be in comparison. When charging via a Tesla wall charger my breaker and the charging cable get warm. I can use my temp gun to grab a reading next charge.

    Foiled again :( State of Michigan auto registration is allegedly down and Tesla cannot do any deliveries today.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I've done quite a few factory orders from various manufacturers and I have never seen any system I would consider "good". In a perfect world I would be able to track, in real time, where my build was in the assembly process.

    Unfortunately you cannot lock in for any longer. I really wish Tesla was more transparent about that. I have had one SA explicitly tell me in the welcome email not to do anything regarding financing until a VIN is provided. My other two experiences the initial email did not mention anything...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    This is what I have done a couple of times so far. I have gotten a binder from my local agent twice for purchases. I simply let them know when we are taking delivery and they can make the actual insurance active at that time.

    Question- asked Tesla about the headlights because I was concerned with getting the older design. Tesla responded that the car has the “global headlights”. I’ve not heard that term. Is this the matrix design?

    You should have gotten contacted by Tesla right after your deposit. They can assist as well. Not nearly as helpful as the SAs that reach out once you have a VIN. Those are usually local.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    It's a balancing act that I consider to be quite personal. You have to put some sort of value on your time and what it is worth to hunt for that perfect deal, as well as the potential cost of the institution that you are working with. Is it worth dealing with a bank that forces you to spend...

    You will need to weigh cost savings with the trade in versus the de-valuation that is being seen in the market already. We opted to skip the stress of it all and sell our M3LR ahead of time to Driveway. We could have gotten more elsewhere, but we also didn't have to deal with a month of test...

    Michigan Waiting Room

    We have used two different CUs and both refused to ACH. Once you settle financing you will get a check to Tesla which you will send via UPS/Fedex/etc, one CU had Tesla and us (my wife signed this one before shipping), one only had Tesla and I shipped it as-is. Tesla asked us for photos of the...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    I am surprised your SA did not tell you not to do anything in terms of financing yet. Having ordered two in the past three months, both times we were advised to not move forward with anything until we have a VIN. I was also warned about using the CU that Tesla has partnered with (Alliant?)...

    We based our order on the estimated date on the site. We just took delivery of a MYP in March, ODD was early Feb and we had it by March 6 even though the EDD was May. After that we decided that the estimates were off so my wife placed her M3P in March with an EDD of April and promptly sold her...

    Is rear seat window suppose to go all the way down ?

    The rear windows do not go all the way down. If you visualize the window completely lowered in the door it would have to enter into the wheel well.

    Can you post where you saw this? I've seen multiple reports of this information however none have been directly from Tesla.

    Tesla has officially removed the mobile connector as a standard accessory with every new car purchase; now a $400 separate purchase

    Im curious if this occurs immediately or are cars currently on order going to continue to include it? The overall order docs are pretty vague about included equipment.

    Are the wheels on the Uberturbine's really that easy to damage? (New England area)

    I pulled my Uberturbines off within a week of ownership. Michigan roads are not conducive to those wheels in my opinion. I dropped down to 20" Enkeis and feel much more comfortable with driving it now. I haven't really noticed a range increase however it feels faster. That could be the...

    Has anyone sold their car through Driveway?

    We are nearly completed with a sale to Driveway. They honored their original price even after a number of delays that added about a month to the process. They have made final payments to us and the bank last week, now we are just waiting for them to schedule the pickup. We had a similar...

    Michigan Waiting Room

    I am not seeing anywhere on the SoS where they have officially announced it, only news articles saying that it was happening. I'm curious about it for sure. I am not sure how much I would want a GPS enabled system, however. It seems like a small jump to traffic fines simply by tracking speed.

    White with white interior, no other options. EDD just bumped forward today to May 19-June 23, so progress. Our M3LR is officially sold to Driveway at this point, so we are ready to go.

    Still have yet to see an EDD change. May 31-July 12. The good new is that Driveway finally got things going and purchased our existing Model 3 LR. It took weeks and weeks, but they honored their original price which I am happy about.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Yeah it’s a huge gamble to hold onto the vehicle until delivery at this point. We have been watching values drop pretty quickly so we sold ours ahead of time. That only works if you have alternative transportation options though.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    While waiting for my Y I never got a single EDD change up until Tesla called me. Now my wife is waiting on her M3P- it's been weeks and the EDD hasn't budged. May 31-July 12. Sigh. And we got a great offer on our 2020 M3LR so it's being sold tomorrow.

    255/45R20 Tires on the 20" Inductions?

    It sounds like a tire or pressure issue to me. I got 255/45R20 Sumitomos and it's a whole new world versus the OEM Uberturbine/All Seasons. I find the new tires to be much more complacent in normal driving and less twitchy at highway speeds. With 21s my Y would track all over the place on...

    Why so many Tesla’s in the span of a few years?

    Pricing for most used cars is higher than new due to supply constraints.

    Why so many Tesla’s in the span of a few years?

    I've always gone through cars. Even those that I have loved most I eventually grow bored of and then swap them out. My record for owning a car is 39 months (forced due to a lease). It's my bad habit.

    Model 3 Trade In

    Another day another text from Driveway that we haven't submitted documentation. It appears that half of the things that I submit via email are lost in their "system".

    My Model Y P's insurance premium is double that of the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk that it replaced.... Insane, but there aren't a whole lot of shops that have expertise in repairing these cars.

    Model 3 Trade In

    Still waiting on Driveway on my end. They said we didn't submit paperwork but I have it in my sent items. Oh well, not sure when they will offer a new appraisal but prices are definitely dropping.

    Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

    At 72 I showed 73.2mph on a speedometer app. It felt accurate enough to me. That also lines up almost spot on with 50.8 when showing 50 on the car.

    Model 3 Trade In

    How has your experience been so far? We have been trying to sell them a M3LR for weeks now. The lack of communication is brutal. their offer was above what others have offered however I am not sure it's worth the pain at this point. Comparatively, Carvana was dream to work with in terms of...

    Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

    Tested today. I set cruise to 45 and then used the wheel to move it to 50. At 50 the speedometer app I used recorded me at 50.8mph. I’m going to test tomorrow on the freeway.

    Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

    Got the tires in on Saturday and installed them today. What a huge difference in ride quality. The 255/45s are not nearly as jarring over bad roads. Grip pines in turns is down a bit however I would sacrifice that for added rubber between the road and the rims.

    Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

    I opted to drop to 20s and run 255/45s. Tire Rack shipped today so I’ll give it a few weeks to compare. My main motivation was the fact that Michigan roads gobble up low profile tires.

    Tire and rim question for MYP 2022

    Watching this as I am in the same boat. I am debating 19s vs 20s with 255/45s if I got 20 for extra sidewall.
