    Is it safe to do a trip from Phoenix USA to Calgary Canada with family plus luggage in RWD Model 3

    Enter your destination address into the car’s navigation map while at home, and wait for the route result to be displayed. If the screen plots you a successful route with charge stops and durations shown, you’ll be fine. Stick to the speed limit and there should be no issue. The car will monitor...

    Has Anyone Ever Encountered This Issue Before with the Exterior Cameras?

    RF Interference? Does your neighbor have Ham Radio antennas on their house?

    Is 100% charge on MYLR once a month good for extended battery life?

    I have the same car as you, and generally don’t worry about charging habits. 40% of my charging is on the road with Superchargers (typically to 80%), 40% is at home (usually to 60-80%, but 90-100% before road trips), and the rest is L2/L3 public charging. Battery looking pretty good.

    Can charge but cannot supercharge

    I know this is a very old thread, but in the spirit of not starting a new thread, I wanted to add to this. My 2023 MYLR now has the same problem - will not DC charge from a Supercharger or any third party DCFC (with Tesla adapter). The Supercharging session seems to start normally, but about 2...

    Supercharging an M3 from Hertz

    My last Hertz Tesla rental from DEN, I simply brought my M-Y keyfob from home and added it as a key. Passive unlock and walk away lock worked just like home (once I enabled them). I removed my fob from Locks while at the Supercharger near DEN right before return. Not as great as the app, but...

    First Road-trip in New Model Y

    “The route planners”, meaning ABRP or other third party routing? Just enter your destination in the car and let the car sort out the chosen Superchargers. That way you precondition and also get rerouted if another SC is less busy. It really is that easy. Congrats on the new ride and enjoy the...

    hertz rentals: can you use your own key fob?

    Successfully added my personal fob from my Model Y at home, to this Model 3 from Hertz tonight. All good, walkaway lock working as expected. 👍🏻 Car had 96% at pickup. A few previous driver profiles and Bluetooth pairings still present as usual. Glovebox not PIN locked like my previous Hertz...

    hertz rentals: can you use your own key fob?

    The language in this Hertz Terms and Conditions around using another fob or keycard (than was provided with the rental) is odd: I’m renting a Model 3 from Hertz tonight, and was planning to bring my own M3/MY fob to add a key to the car for convenience. Me adding an additional key in “Locks”...

    Model Y has anyone received 2023 VIN yet?

    I ordered a MYLR in late April 2022, revised May 2022. Took delivery of a 2023 made in Austin on November 11 2022. Love the car! Off topic, but I’m currently in FL on vacation and rented a Polestar 2 from Hertz. I can say that I hate the P2. It’s a nice looking car, and the kick sensor to...

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    Yes. This then calculates expected shipping fees to your home or closest delivery location, depending on state dealer laws. In Nebraska’s case, Tesla doesn’t have a “dealer’s license“ (or whatever it’s called), so I either had to have it shipped to Kansas City or I could pick it up in person in...

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    Nevada charged me no tax. I only paid NE sales tax and dmv fees, as if I had bought locally. I did have to get the car “inspected” by the county sheriff at the dmv, for a car bought out of state. But that’s only a $10 vin check to make sure it’s not stolen, etc. I realize that different states...

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    Nope! Make final payment, accept the car in the app, drive away. Correct, once home. Nope! Edit: but I’ve never bought a car in California, and from jjrandorin’s post, it appears the rules are different there. So, ymmv. Sorry.

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    I bought a 2020 M3SR+ from a Tesla gallery in Las Vegas (online from the Tesla used listings, of course). My wife and flew from our home in Nebraska to Vegas cheap on SW and drove it home (to avoid $2000 shipping). Tesla provided the Nevada windshield pink intransit, and then mailed us the...

    Vendor 🚨IN STOCK NOW: LDCRS Tesla Model Y Under Seat Storage Box - Compatible with LDCRS Mats🚨

    I have one of the first ones out in the wild for this bin. I can confirm that it fits perfectly under my 2023 MYLR driver’s seat, riding snugly up over the lip of my LDCRS floor mats, as promised. It’s a little more snug under the rear of my seat (so, for a 2nd row passenger to use), vs up...

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    Is the dumb autopilot you refer to, simply the currently offered TACC? I’ve had occasional PB on AP, but never on TACC that I can recall.

    Thinking of buying a 3!

    Good advice, I agree with you. I almost feel bad (ok, actually not really) for the Chevrolet dealer that purchased my 2020 M3SR+ from me. They gave me US$39k about 6 weeks ago, originally listed for around 42,450. After a series of reductions it’s still sitting there at $38,249 (a top line loss...

    Vendor 🚨BACK IN STOCK🚨 LDCRS Premium 3D (LOGO FREE) All Weather Floor Mats for Tesla Model Y 2024/2023/2022/2021

    Any update on the underseat bins? I’m eager to try the one that’s promised to me for testing, as I’ll happily buy one for the other side if it fits well and meets my needs. I want to put my charging adapters there so they’re more readily accessible at charging stops, rather than opening the...

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    That’s understandable how close to your thumb the button feels to you, but with a stalk, it’s in the same place everytime and I can reach for it without looking. It does not move from its predictable location going into or out of turns, on curvy roads, or many similar situations. Chasing the...

    Snow tires for 2022 Model Y

    I know you’ve already made your purchase so just another data point from me for others looking. I’m likely in the minority, but I chose to buy Tesla’s $2750 19” winter tire and wheel combo (4x Gemini wheels, Pirelli Sottozero, TPMS). I got the store alert that they were in stock a few weeks...

    Model Y has anyone received 2023 VIN yet?

    If you don’t have ultrasonic sensors on your front and rear bumpers (most likely, with a 2023 MY just like mine didn’t come with them), you won’t get summon back until Tesla releases a vision update for proximity sensing with cameras alone. How long? No one knows.

    Is enhanced autopilot (2022) worth it?

    If you have AP on and attempt to change lanes without using your turn signal, sure, it’s going to feel like you’re “fighting” to take over control of the wheel with the extra torque necessary to do so. At that point, both AP and TACC will have turned off by your manual over-torquing of the...

    All weather mats…. Tis the season (POLL)

    You’re welcome. Nice mats, I like the way they fit. First and second row textile mats are removed and these grip well on the base carpet. I’ll confirm the other three pieces when I get them. Also I’ll be watching for the underseat bins when they’re ready to order. Thanks!

    Here’s the pics from my 2023 MYLR, PA026*** (Austin). I would like to see these go higher up into the front footwells, and I need a solution for the center console carpeted sides, but overall seems like a snug accurate fit. Waiting still on the last three pieces to arrive this week: cargo...

    All weather mats…. Tis the season (POLL)

    I like them. For the driver and passenger, the fit on the sides and under the seat are great. I wish the front part extending up into the footwell went a little higher - there is still some exposed carpet but ultimately I still think it’s fine. I can get a picture later today to show you. I...

    (Responding to ldcrs, sorry the quote didn’t work somehow) I have a 2023 MYLR on my account. These Tesla branded mats are able to be added to my cart. There wasn’t a message either way whether they *are* or *are not* compatible with my car - only that they’ll sell them to me. Not sure if that’s...

    Can 5G be added to Model 3?

    I meant maybe compared to the experience on a typical iPhone or Android phone. 5G here locally for me can be spotty on VZW, so I stay mostly on 4G LTE unless traveling. Google Maps loads quick on my phone of course, but my MYLR mcu doesn’t seem as fast (different carrier, I know). I’ll try on...

    Model Y has anyone received 2023 VIN yet?

    7SAY is just the manufacturer code at the beginning of the VIN specifying it’s a Tesla. Further characters in the VIN indicate other specifics such as factory where built, model year, etc. Search Google for VIN decoder - there are many out there.
