    Discussion: Experiences Renting a Tesla Model 3 / Y from various companies

    Rented from Hertz and pretty much the same experience and have the same overall impression. I want to reiterate the experience would be better if: some form of premium connectivity were provided for leased options or link to a subscription if you have one phone app so everyone gets a full...

    Red MYP delivery. Fremont build. Bad fit and paint. Thoughts?

    I wouldn't accept that either. Took delivery of a Fremont Red MY 7 seat in Austin, and the paint and detailing were very good. I did find a 1mm paint bubble which was very obvious, and there was no question that it would be fixed, although it will require a body shop fix - not service. I...

    I would holler a bit. I have a very small paint bubble, which I noted, but also my SA had to leave to meet for another delivery and expressly said if I found other issues I had 24 hours. That is still not much, but I will hold him to his word. Also noted this would probably be body work to...

    Out of the waiting room. I did have to accept delivery before the car was unlocked, but was told I could take as long as I wanted and keep a list that they would use for the new build ticket. Also told that anything I found in the next 24 hours would be considered a new build issue as well. We...

    Yes, I scheduled the delivery before I paid and even before I had proof of insurance. I had to postpone the delivery and got many nagging texts to remind me to upload insurance, and then to pay. With everything done and accepted, today I had two calls from the delivery/service center, some...

    Pretty much the way it went for me . But Texas is a bit different. I added the MY to my existing policy and gave them a starting date of the day of pick up. I uploaded the temp information. I then got a text from Tesla saying that I would need to have it active for 3 days prior in order for...

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    My car arrived in Austin on the 21st, as Tesla had told me it would. They called and asked if I would take delivery on 24th. As I have told them several times cannot do so because I am out of town. I offered to get it late in the day on the 23rd -- no dice. Not sure if it will take them...

    I had a one month EDD of 2/15-3/15. I got my Vin on 2/07. I got my delivery date on Valentine's Day (love you, too Elon). Delivery was scheduled for 24 Feb. Unfortunately, I have travel plans for the delivery date that I can't change. The SA pushed it out to 28 Feb, but also said they...

    Multi-coat Red / black / 19" / 7 seat; final change to order 3 Dec 22. Got my "Schedule for Delivery" text today. Tesla scheduled the delivery for a time when I am out of town, but will finally get to pick it on the 28th. WooHoo! Definitelly a lot of movement.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    Are any able to be mounted with the third row. I know they won't function with the third row in use, but at least usual when only two seats are used, and the mounts don't get the way of the third row use.

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    My valentines day gift - a schedule delivery text. Turns out, just as I suspected, it is for a time when I am out of town. I did get a new date, but was warned, it could not be pushed out any further. Hopefully I won't have to test that warning. My EDD was 2/15 - 3/25. I will now pick it...

    Vendor Kavanic Matte Black Wheel Cover for 19” Model Y Gemini Wheels (Available in US Canada & EU)

    Lucky enough to have ordered 3 days ago! Haven't gotten them yet, and don't have a car to put them on, but super excited that my red will have some nice looking dress shoes.

    Uberturbine Look Aero Wheel Cover for Gemini covers

    I definitely think the black covers look sharp with the red, and I definitely wanted the better range, and more available tires. I think I will try the range improving after markets as well.

    Do you think this would be totaled?

    First of all, I feel your pain. I had a 10 day old M3 hit broadside in 2018. Nothing pleasant about the process. Always call insurance. Generally they will want their appraiser to provide an official appraisal. Ultimately, they will do a tear down to determine the final level of repair...

    Like several have said. For me it is grandkids and family so that for many holidays, when parking and time is at a premium, we only have to take one car! Won't be used a lot and probably not for long hauls. Otherwise it will be my schlepp-mobile! My apologies in advance for all those that...

    Red Model Y Waiting Room

    They finally found the red paint bucket. WooHoo. Got my VIN 2/7 at Noon, after an initial order in Sep. Of course they scheduled delivery for when I'm out of town!! Really happy for you ^^. Nice to hear something other than complaints. I'm not a fanboy, and have my share of issues, but at...

    Well, may be the lone wolf here. Red/black MYLR, 7 seat, 19". First ordered a MYLR MSM/black 5 seat in mid Sep 22; changed to 7 seat a few days later. Changed to red the first of Dec. By the time I changed my order the last time, I got a changed EDD of Dec 22. That is where it sat all...

    Fingers crossed they are seeing red now and my EDD of 7Feb-7 Mar will hold for a Red/Black/19"/7 seater will hold. I mean, how more basic can you get?

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    Yes, I read that as well and I may be thick as an ICE brick, but it says including options, technically AP and FSD are options. Technically, there is a MSRP for theses options. Yet FSD can also be added at the flick of a switch. Does color count? Do 20" wheels. I'm just asking where in that...

    Upgrade to Model Y or not?

    True. but I'm biased. Give me a fob to a Plaid and M3P and I'll take the M3 everytime. My son's plaid is safe from me :) M3 is just super fun to drive.

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    Tesla categorically says that software is not included in the rebate calculation. Has anyone see the language in Federal communications that confirms Tesla's statements?

    The cost in June or earlier may make up for the drop we are seeing now. The timing may work out but only the OP can do that calc..

    Upgrade to Model Y or not?

    I have a 2018 M3LR - very basic. MY was not a possibility when I ordered, as soon as it was announced, I wished that I could have gotten that car and certainly would have ordered it had it been available. I'm a different boat, but my significant other announced they were going to order an M3...

    It is a cover that fits over the cargo area behind the last seat to cover packages, suitcases being transported or left in the car. Essentially turning that open area into a trunk. Tesla's is a foldable hard cover, there are after markets that are a retractable screen. Many hatchbacks have a...

    You can fine several on Amazon that say they work with 7 seaters. Just looking they don't seem like they will last very long, but I have no experience.

    I think you are correct on both. But maybe we will get parcel mode -- a refractive tesla grid that makes everything underneath invisible. 😉

    Red 7s definitely low volume, just hope they a couple pretty soon. On the lottery, we don't have the final rules on battery sourcing. Supposedly final rules may come done in March. Who knows what Tesla will do if the rules aren't favorable, or they can't meet the requirements. It could be...

    Any guesses on when we will start seeing red 7 seaters start to roll? (I notice some blue ones in invetory on the east coast) Any one want odds on the Fed - Elon lottery as we get closer to March for those with an EDD mid Feb to mid March? I'll need a pacemaker to deal with this ride.

    Music Pauses When Starting a fun Backing Car

    Any one still experiencing this? I know this an old thread, but the same things happens to me. I thought it got better, but it is now worse than ever, The Audio does not restart after some time. I have to press the mute button to get Audio back. I have reported a bug, but so far no joy.

    We only plan on using ours occasionally as well. When family comes to town, I have a 5 year old that will in the third row and we will not have to take omer than one car - even an M3 to park, pay tolls and charge. I'm sure the 5 year old convince a flexible Aunt or Uncle to keep company, but...

    My frunk was shrunk!

    Thank you for the move. I do think that this change in new M3s may be due to preparation for the heat pump, and / or newer equipment. I just didn't think it would that big a change or that it would really change how I could use this space that I have grown to use constantly and on which I now...

    My frunk was shrunk!

    A small cautionary tale for those of us that follow everychange or nook and cranny of the Teslaverse. I drive a 2018 silver metallic M3. It is a bit of a ghost and attracts other vehicles on a somewhat regular basis including a bus backing into the front end. When my car was returned from...

    hertz rentals: can you use your own key fob?

    Yes, that worked when we got the fobs, but has anyone had this work for rental cars It did not work for a rental in TX. Also when it worked was it an original fob or a new one? What year car? and what year fob?

    When I inquired 2 days ago, that was an affirmative. Before the price change, there was inventory and I asked why we couldn't get any delivered to Austin :D
