    Something leaking???

    Thanks for the reply! I have a service scheduled next Friday to drop the car off and have them take a look. I also purchased a metal aero shield. I haven't put it on yet as I don't want them to give me a hard time for aftermarket parts, and the existing heat shield has oil all over it so...

    Something leaking???

    So on my way home today, the guy in the lane next to me smashed into a wooden pallet in his lane sending shrapnel flying at the front of my car. I immediately heard dragging and had to pull over. Pieces of the pallet had broken the plastic under tray and were lodged. I removed them and drove...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I picked up yesterday!!!! Got a text on Thursday asking to schedule an appointment. It shocked me a bit because I never recieved a text or email with my VIN and had even been checking the source code daily and nothing. Getting financing though the app was quick and painless, got approved in...

    FS: Wall Connector BNIB Still Sealed

    As the title says, I have a brand new, in box, still sealed wall connector. We are downsizing to a condo so I no longer have use for the wall connector. My cost was $431, will sell for $400 shipped or $380 picked up in San Diego.

    Master Thread: Definitive 14-50 NEMA Outlet Guide

    Just wanted to jump in and update this. Had another electrician come out to take a look at my situation. Turns out what I thought was a 60 amp breaker on the welder circuit is really a 30 amp breaker. There are 2 30 amp breakers linked together, which led me to believe is was 60 amps. So that...

    Master Thread: Definitive 14-50 NEMA Outlet Guide

    Thanks for your replies @Gauss Guzzler @Sophias_dad and @3sr+buyer , I've decided to have a completely different company come out and rewire the current circuit and change to a 50 amp breaker, inspect the sub panel to make sure he wired that correctly as well, and then run another circuit to...

    Master Thread: Definitive 14-50 NEMA Outlet Guide

    Well that's extremely upsetting, but thank you for the info. What could I do to bring it up to code? Would replacing the 10 awg wire with something else, perhaps 6 awg?, be acceptable and allow me to get the most out of the circuit? Also, since running a pig tail is unacceptable. If I hard...

    Master Thread: Definitive 14-50 NEMA Outlet Guide

    Reading through this thread just shows me what little I know about electrical wiring! But I do know a few things about my current set up I hope you wire gods can help me with. I have a 6-50 outlet on a dedicated circuit with a 60 amp breaker that is wired with wire that is labelled "Romex...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I have a feeling that average is gonna get a whole lot longer. My OD was 5/21, currently my EDD is 11/26 - 1/21. IF nothing changes and it comes in on the earliest day of my EDD I'm looking at 189 days. I'm ok with it as I expected a long wait with demand being higher and shortages on damn near...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Yep.... paid $6.25 on base yesterday.... even the fed gas stations aren't as much of a deal as they used to be. Also had to swipe my card twice to fill the tank since the pump stops at $75.... And the tank will last me 3 days. My tesla cant come fast enough!!!

    Another Tesla driver in San Diego, CA

    Welcome from the hills of Ramona! I can't believe the time difference for delivery dates between the P and LR!! If I had the cash I'd swing the P but it just isn't possible currently. Thanks again for the check list you posted on my introduction thread, I'll definitely be using it in 6 to 8...

    Window Wind Deflectors

    As someone who MUST have his window cracked while driving, wind deflectors are one of my first accessories I've added to all of my cars. Surprisingly the big name brands don't sell any.... I've found a few on Amazon, a couple chinese brands and a "Wellvisors" brand. Just wondering if anyone has...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    May I suggest using AAA. I've had them for over 20 years and have had nothing but good interactions with them. Even when I was in an at fault accident that totaled my car, I had a check for my car in my mailbox 3 days later and calling to report the accident and letting them know what happened...

    That's like selling a ICE car and say, you gotta buy a gas station if you wanna fill it lol. Alright well I guess I'll just throw it on the order

    So wait a minute, they sell you a $60k car without a way to charge it??? I'm purchasing the wall connector as I have a 240 line ran, but was going to keep the mobile connector in the car for road trips. You're saying I gotta buy both!?!

    2022 - Best SDG&E TOU Plan for Solar/EV/Powerwall?

    Just went solar and waiting delivery on my M3LR in Nov-Jan. From what I understand, SDG&E has a algorithm after your first true up bill to help you pick which plan suits you best. How accurate it is, I'm unsure.

    4 wheel alignment for 2018 Model 3

    I worked for Discount Tire many years back and alignments were not something offered. Flat repairs, rotations and rebalances... yes. I know Evan's Tires does alignments but after I had to fight tooth and nail for them to repair the rims they gouged I cannot recommend them.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    A question for the experts: So I jumped on the app and did all the registration shenanigans. So now its asking about a trade in. I'm gonna try and get them to buy my BMW off me, I doubt they'll want it as it's on its last leg, but with an EDD of 11/26-1/21 I'm guessing I should wait until I get...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Our January bill doubled over last year using just a bit more kwh (same kwh of peak). That was the final straw. The solar payment is a bit high but with the increases this year it is probably still cheaper over the year than sdg&e. Plus sdg&e announced another 8.6% increase next year. We went...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    When designing our system we took our usage last year + 10% + the worst kw per mile we could find for the M3LR and multiplied that by my work commute miles times 6 days a week (to add extra cushion). All told came out to just under 18,000 kwh per year so we built a bit over that.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is the most accurate thing I've ever read on the internet Yeah don't let them fool you, that's absolutely not true. California charges $1.26 per gallon in tax and the state of California currently has a $98 billion budget surplus. That's $5500 PER HOUSEHOLD in California. I'm sure that...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    As I stated above, just put 32 solar panels on the house. Been making 77.5kwh a day on sunny days so far. Should be good to go with charging and never paying SDG&E again!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I just had 32 solar panels installed on my house so I will be charging 99.9% of the time at home!!! Maybe I'll stop into gas stations for old times sake. Clean my windshield. Grab a Slim Jim. lol

    I'm sure I won't hold the crown long! I'm not panicking.... yet. Really hoping for all the good stuff (matrix lights, Ryzan, heated wipers, Michelins) but nothing is really a deal breaker, just want to never hit a gas station again. Also, now that the weather is warming up I'll be riding the...

    I've had he windows tinted in all of the vehicles I've owned and always gone with 5% in the rear and 10% in the front. Backing up in the dark was always a pain, especially living in a rural area with ZERO street lights like I do. But the privacy and drop in interior temps was always worth it. I...
