yea, at first I thought it would be a tough transition going from carplay to tesla. 95% of my driving is local with no use of navigation -- i have the Spotify app opened and it absolutely destroys carplay I do miss waze, but when navigating on road trips, i'll just keep in on my phone to make...

Range is so interesting -- prior to owning a tesla and for the past 6 months I obsessed over range and a better route planner assessing how many stops I would need to take for certain road trips etc. Now that I actually own a tesla i pay little to no attention to the % of battery left or miles...

neighbor had a 1/10 long range AWD order, they changed the color a few times, but they took delivery yesterday. Wow you AWD folks are crazy.... the AWD 0-60 is a completely different feeling than the rwd model... Its like a kids ride at disney vs the rock and roll express roller coaster...

I'd also suggest signing directly into the wifi of the connector and see if any errors show up when you sign in and connect to the ip address of the wall connector

i put it on FSD on aggressive last night (just updated on 2024 model 3) -- was pretty cool on the highway -- its a little scary when it changes lanes, because it turns on the blinkers and you get confused which direction it is, left or right..... highway driving is where it as for me vs normal...

had to update the sheet from a few weeks ago -- people really messed it up!!! so if you made any changes recently, you need to go in and make those changes again, had to go back to april 3rd to find a proper sheet...

i can tell you -- every minute you wait is worth it -- damn car is fantastic.

took my rwd in for a quick service appointment today -- drivers side door was slightly misaligned when i took delivery. Not a huge issue at all, but figured might as well have them "adjust" it as needed. it only really is noticeable when you look in the drivers side mirror, you can see the...

rumor is also performance release is pending....still no word if it will qualify for fed credit or not, but if does makes it very strange between long range and performance package.

I have the new 2024 stealth grey rwd. I remember reading/watching some negative reviews on the 0-60 time and how it felt like off the start you could "feel" the suspension kind of settling in etc and potentially slowing the car down a bit. Coming from SUVs and a wrangler, the rwd is plenty...

what product are you using for step 5? i'm always interested in exploring new ceramic sprays and drying aids. currently using beadmaker, but has a flaw that it has static issue which some times can attract dust etc.

yea, blacks a tough paint. looks great from far, then closer you look the more imperfections you see for sure.

ONR is a rinseless wash -- still usually uses a bucket, but doesn't require a "hose" waterless wash -- is taking a waterless wash product, and spraying it on the car and wiping it down gently. ONR can be used as a waterless wash, and there are many other products out there. If the car is very...

yea locking and unlocking autofold and unfold works flawlessly. but it also has a feature where regardless of locking, you can click fold mirrors, and then save the location. its really for lets say your pulling into a tight spot and want to always fold the mirrors at that location, this works...

besides my maiden voyage from atlanta to st Augustine, FL, the day after delivery, my new rwd hasn't gotten below 80% state of charge yet..... its such a great feeling having a car full every morning even though we aren't driving it much daily etc. (sorry , besides 1 day we did put 175 miles on...

had no choice but to run it through a touchless car wash yesterday -- too much pollen in Atlanta, and can't hand wash it every day but if really dirty I foam, rinse, foam - hand wash and dry if light and weekly clean - using ONR now and have some ONR in a spray bottle for a quick waterless...

yea, i'm in the trial on a new 2024 model 3. got the error yesterday, and unlinked and then relinked my account, and it appeared to be working. But when I left the house the garage neither opened or closed. But what scared me once, i just pulled out of the garage and then backed back in...

repeating question.... Has anyone with a Highland gotten the 2024.3.10 (FSD 12.3.3) update yet?

Yea, seems like an opportunity for improvement -- I wonder does it use the drivers or passenger temp setting? i'll play around with laser thermometer to see later today.

i've had the car for alittle over a week now --- still love it like she is my baby -- can't say enough positive things about my rwd etc. i did sit the in the back seat for the first time last night, is there a separate temperature control for the rear? or only fan speed? I'm an xm guy, so...

Ok - preconditioning the car on a scheudle is easy using the app. However, how do you precondition and then at the same time tell the car to set the internal temperature to X degrees? or is it only based upon what the current vehicle internal temperature is set at by default and if the seats for...

my driver side is like that. only really notice it when i look in my side mirror, and the trim protudes etc. taking it in a few weeks for them to look at it, its not a a big deal to me etc.

Anything with a top down is fun to drive normally regardless of how bumpy and terrible the suspension is. something about the wind blowing in your face and your hair etc. a wrangler with the top down and doors off, is insanely fun to drive. If i could drive my wrangler all year with the top...

on crappy roads, road noise still is an issue -- on a nice properly paved road, the new highland is butter sweet quiet. i never got to drive the older model 3 on the highway, but most youtubers have shown a slight difference when comparing the 2 vehicles. cars pretty dang quiet and smooth.

been meaning to put rain-x on the windshield --- the auto wipers are the major flaw that we keep hearing about having an update for. its not the end of the world to hit the wiper button and turn them on, just kind of funny that the car can drive itself, yet can't turn on the wipers when it's...

well you late deliveries should be getting a free month of FSD right? will be interesting to see what happens and they are saying they want SAs to take people on demo's at delivery time as well.

Yea I was given the impression that what you uploaded for insurance purposes had to be for the Tesla. I added it to my insurance a few days before my first delivery date and uploaded the proof. however, the car was delayed so I called USAA to remove the tesla, and then the day before i really...

The auto shift in drive or reverse is crazy insanely good and natural. the lack of stalks is a 100% non issue for me ---within 10 minutes I never reached for a stalk again. Stalks are for losers...... sound system on the rwd is very very good. The awd must be insane, because their is...

Trick with autopilot on the highway - i just rest my left leg against the steering wheel. Oh and it’s true. The auto wipers are as bad as everyone says. It was pouring today - the auto wipers don’t work. Auto most mean off….. Besides that no negatives.

My parting gift to the forum:

all its done!! wow -- relief. been a long journey, and up until i actually saw the car, i questioned if It was truly going to receive it..... delivered today at 11:00 am. pretty easy process, I think the center said they had 40 cars to deliver today, but might have miss heard them. Signed a...

Yea, ordering early is not healthy for sure - false assumption that you are at the front of the line etc. highs and lows of excitement and depression is brutal. Hard to sit back and enjoy the process - the end is near scheduled delivery for tomorrow, and haven't been notified yet that delivery...

man sorry to hear --- i think something fishy is going on with tesla deliveries in atlanta --- cars don't seem to be making it here...... interested what other brand EV? and since your a bourbon guy -- my go to is "dragon's Blood" 1/3 jack daniels single barrel (better with barrel strength) 1/3...

additional question -- do people pull in their garage and just always get in the habit of plugging in the their tesla's? or do you always just wait until the end of the day to either schedule charging or initiate charging.

live webcam from Gallup, NM train --- i think i saw your car....

yea, that glowing green light is mocking me..... It keeps calling me..... I'm debating on seeing if needs an update today to get my tesla fix in.

i think the long range Y is the best deal going right now. I have concerns about the rwd Y, haven't driven one yet, but seems like too much car for a rwd vs awd, and its a bit sluggish from what i see. If it was the LFP battery might be enticing, but Its not.

Sounds like its consistent with your message of 3/18 delivery dates --- have you spoken to the SA to see if they truly have confirmed delivery dates etc?

same - selected march 20...still not very confident the car will arrive. but is consistent with your earlier information of the cars not arriving till 3/18. My SA said she has no idea where the car is nor could confirm the car will arive etc.

I'm never getting this car -- SA just reached out no true eta, but car won't be here for 3/16 delivery, switched to 3/20

Well wall charger is installed --- had a neighbor electrical guru help. Pretty easy, had to drop in the basement, then run about 30 feet to breaker box. hardest part --- moving the wire around, and "stapling" to the rafters. Rest is fairly simple -- used 6-3 romex in case at some point, I need...

yea, don't want anything with "labels" on it either....ugly I will say, tesla should have put a usb plug behind the screen for cleaner accessory options attached to screen.

nothing like ordering a car on 1/10 and watching others who ordered after you get the same car before you. that hurts for sure.

No doubt for a guy who knows a lot about cars, he missed on a few easy things for sure. The colors was funny. He seems to better with older cars that have real quarks. That’s his shtick

I know this has been asked -- I have a dealer funding request through USAA. I've already emailed it to my SA, but plan to resend again the day before "delivery" - should I expect any delays using this method? or do they handle it and release the car to me etc.

Doug DeMuro's review -- honest review, a few mistakes, but overall seems fair.

yea kind of both -- my real first estimated date of delivery was Feb 13-March 12. Woke up Feb 14, and was greeted with a delivery update -- April 11-May 23..... SA had no reason or understanding why.. Went to a new tesla store in my area a few days later on Feb 17, and the SA went in the back...

Some mornings I wakeup and honestly forget I ordered a car, then I open my computer, and this screen is always open.......

Well other north atlantians were right -- my SA kept my delivery appointment as 3/16, however, he said the car won't be here until 3/18..... Clearly some logistic issues. order date 1/10, vin 2/17 -- still no true confirmed delivery date -- and every day the delivery date gets closer, it seems...

should be un-fubar'ed now..... my question for peeps --- will I miss the seamless integration of siriusXM radio? I'll be honest, i like all kinds of music, but love my college football sports talk radio, only on xm.... I'll miss that. I've never been a huge fan of bluetooth so will see if I...
