    Change Email/Tesla Account for Lease Car

    I have the same issue. My email is correct in my Tesla account but my statements and notifications go to an old email.

    Zoom? [I didnt get zoom in the holiday update]

    2022 Model S no Zoom in the update. Why wouldn’t S/X get this in the update and why would Canada not get it??

    Supercharger - Shelby, MT

    Shelby just doesn’t seem to be a priority for the Tesla SC team… Also Conrad was supposed to be part of the expansion. There are so many Albertans who drive down to Phoenix, Palm Springs, and Las Vegas in the winter this would be so great for us. I’ve also been told this SC route would be...

    Yoke Wheel in Action

    I love it! I wonder what it's like in higher-speed cornering where you finish the turn and with a traditional steering wheel you let it slide through your fingers back to centre?

    Replika R241 Wheels

    That's great! I'm just looking at winter sets for my Model Y (arriving before end of Q4 2020). I see that www.partsengine.ca has great prices! The Replika R241 they have suggested are ET35 instead of the ET40 you have - will that push them out a little? Or is it the opposite? I can never...

    Tesla Owners in Alberta

    This is exactly what happened to me with my first car (P85D) - rear tires lasted about 6,000km before going to the metal of the tires. Sure I launched it a lot but still they wore most on the inside - you couldn't even see the wear unless you looked all the way to the inside of the tires.

    It does make a difference when parking on steeper hills in winter but that's about it.

    Tesla Owners in Alberta

    That's quite the change! I did this several times when ordering my first (and second) Tesla! Grey with white was my first choice... I downloaded many pics from the interweb of that colour combo. Ultimately ended up with white on white mostly my wife's choice. I like it but still like the...

    First P85D adopters stuck in black hole

    That’s the day I ordered my P85D... I was just hoping for an AWD Tesla then they went and threw in the Performance aspect and I was sold! Fond memories and it’s sure changed my life!

    I’m hosting a mini meetup to display our new TOCA tent this Sunday from 10am-Noon. Point your GPS to 222 Crescent Road NW in Calgary. Weather looks decent - we can have a show & shine and talk about winter tires, reduced range, and all the crazy things Elon has said in the past 2 months! Hope to...

    Obvious features/functions that weren't obvious to you

    My favorite is using the voice commands, “Take me home” or “Take me to work” to automatically navigate to the home/work destinations. (I secretly wish one day it will turn on full self driving and ACTUALLY take me home!) ;)

    They have the Performance now for test drives. It's blue with white interior and all options - including the Performance Package with lowered suspension. I measured it to about 1" lower than stock.

    I just test drove the Performance Model 3 - great car! Really reminds me of my "old" P85D only more nimble.

    Tesla will remove Metallic Silver/Obsidian Black Metallic from Configuration (available off-menu)

    That looks VERY good... exactly what I would choose (I think!).

    Tesla Owners in Alberta

    :eek: Really! It's a beautiful car. Hopefully you have plans to replace it with something similar?

    Tesla will remove Metallic Silver/Obsidian Black Metallic from Configuration (available off-menu)

    I find it odd that Obsidian Black is being discontinued when black has proven to be the most popular colour in the US.

    Can someone explain Range Mode?

    Interesting question... probably but I’m sure there isn’t any wizardry that would allow you to have more efficient (yet just as fast) 1/4-mile runs with range mode on.

    Western Canada Superchargers

    There is no indication whatsoever that Tesla is planning a Supercharger at Chinook Centre (other than what is on supercharge.info of course). The head of Supercharging told our Calgary group that it wouldn't likely be at Chinook... as that didn't make sense for travellers. Possibly an urban...

    Does the Performance Model 3 not come with Performance Brakes?

    The red calipers are higher performance brakes (more pistons) I’ve been told.

    Performance Price Change, Delivery Delay, and Tesla Called me to Ask Why I Didn"t Order the P

    Part of the back story is that with my P85D order I missed the heated steering wheel feature by a week when ordering... and I spent 2 years with that car struggling to keep my fingers warm 8 months of the year even with preconditioning the car. Now with my X I am in LOVE with the heated wheel...

    Performance Price Change, Delivery Delay, and Tesla Called me to Ask Why I Didn"t Order the P

    I get that... last winter was really cold - didn't let up for 4-5 months solid at -20C or worse. I am in/out of the car all day and I'm petty sure I have that condition where my fingers turn white when it's cold (even on colder days) and they actually hurt. I even have heated gloves but they are...

    Performance Price Change, Delivery Delay, and Tesla Called me to Ask Why I Didn"t Order the P

    Sigh... I can't believe I'm going to do this but my daughter actually pointed out that the Model 3 (at $102k config!) doesn't have a heated steering wheel. Hate to be one of those "deal breaker" kind of people but those who know me know how important that is to me. I'm going to have to wait...

    Performance Price Change, Delivery Delay, and Tesla Called me to Ask Why I Didn"t Order the P

    Reason I ask is I can do aftermarket wheels, use the Aero wheels for a winter setup, and add an aftermarket spoiler and save $6,600 CDN on the order... but if you get the upgraded calipers too... that may be enough for me to just keep the Performance Upgrade package in the order and buy a set of...

    Model 3 P and D options available for Canadians now

    I'm really confused and hopefully someone can help answer this... With the Model 3 order now you can choose RWD, AWD, or AWD Performance. Then you can select a "Performance Upgrade" that gives the following: Performance Upgrade Select Option $6,600 20” Performance Wheels Carbon fiber...

    @M3AB the parking item is a wish of mine too however with a Tesla it’s often hard to justify other than the awesome parking spot. I’ve become more aware over the past few years as more low-range EVs hit the market that these spots should be reserved for those who “need” the charge. Kind of like...

    Interesting observation as I also noticed this and felt that perhaps there were few-if-any Model 3 orders for the first batch (long range RWD, premium etc) in Alberta. Turns out the reality is (shocker alert...) not everyone is on the forums! ;) Now that the deliveries have started it’s nice to...

    Compare value 15 P85Di vs 16 X

    Insane Mode was standard in the P85D and Ludicrous Mode was an optional package that would change the display to "Ludicrous" rather than "Insane". No P85D ever had "Standard" driving mode... base P85D was "Sport" or "Insane" options only.

    Calgary South supercharge location confirmed

    Yes, they have a Supercharger at the Service Centre to deal with troubleshooting cars with any kind of Supercharger issues. It's a different unit than you would normally see - it is white-labelled (doesn't have a TESLA logo on it) and has 2 handles so it can supercharge two vehicles at a time...
