    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    With respect to the Hertz fleet authorization screen, Tesla has told us that the car may have to go in to a service center for them to remove if it doesn’t clear in due course. They did recommend waiting a week or two, to see if it clears before bringing it in. I highly doubt that it will clear...

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    Same day for us, but we needed to be able to use the supercharger so they escalated it for us.

    Thoughts on buying a used Model 3 from Hertz?

    We just bough a 2023 with 24,000 miles from an independent dealer, but the vehicle was a prior Hertz rental. Other than some glitches with transferring ownership which we’re working through with Tesla and which are detailed in another thread, the process has been great and the car looks and...

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    We just bought one as an extra family car, from an independent dealer but it was a Hertz rental. We also had to contact Tesla to get it transferred over, but they were very helpful and the process was fast. The only hiccup was that we then had to do a factory reset before we could add keys...

    2021+ Model S and Model S Plaid Refresh Issues Thread

    A similar thing happened to me and I was told that they needed to replace the front motor. Car was towed to the SC on 12/1/21 and I haven't seen it since and have only received periodic texts to the effect that they will provide me an update soon, but that is all that they have said for weeks...

    Tesla 21” Forged Aluminum Arachnid Wheels and Tires for MS

    Hi Connie, not trying to offend, but if you look at other recent sale listings, they are selling in the $2500-$3000 range. Case in point is the link in the prior reply to your post. Again, they are your wheels and you are entitled to ask whatever you want, but just trying to be helpful.

    Need to program new Arachnid Wheels at dealer?

    One thought - if you swap the wheels, the service center can program the display on the dash to show the car with Arachnids. They did this for me without asking when I swapped the wheels on my old Model S and I thought it was pretty cool. I think you're making a good choice. I have had my new...

    2014 P85 Gets a 2017 facelift using OEM parts

    Is the Tesla symbol and decorative trim below it available in chrome on your kit?

    2014 P85 Gets a 2017 facelift using OEM parts

    Looks great! Quick question - is there a reason why the trim piece in the top two pictures is not installed? I assume it still fits?

    Two odd issues, anyone else?

    I have had this issue a number of times over the past couple of weeks on my three week old P90D. It is always in stop and go traffic and is a clunk about a second or so after I have come to a complete stop. It is definitely coming from the front somewhere. Unfortunately, it is intermittent and...

    Verifying options on CPO Model S listings

    if you subscribe to the ev cpo consolidator, there is a information item that comes up on each car listing its options (again, based on VIN) that is more detailed than the Tesla CPO website.

    Refurbished Wheels

    Thanks for your help! That makes a lot of sense re: going 245 all around. I am getting the P90D (non-L). Thanks again.

    New or Used?

    Thanks. It was classic mission creep - start with CPO, move to inventory cars, back to CPO and then finally to new. For what it is worth, the used car manager (might not have the title correct) but that is the gist of it, at the Tesla Buena park location (where they have CPO's that you can...

    Refurbished Wheels

    Thanks. That is good feedback. The wheels say that the fronts are 8.5 wide and the backs are 9.0 wide. I believe that is the staggered setup, but if not, I'd love to know! Regarding the appearance, especially if you are behind the car, the half inch difference on a staggered setup (or...

    New or Used?

    I was in the same boat a few weeks ago. Initially, I started thinking that I would certainly buy a CPO, but after looking at a number of cars and trying to find the balance between price, on the one hand, and features, age and mileage, etc., on the other hand, I slowly migrated towards new...

    Refurbished Wheels

    Any issues with buying refurbished/reconditioned wheels? My order just went into confirmed status and am now regretting not getting the 21's (yes, I've read all the negative feedback on them, but aesthetically, I just can't get past staring every time I see a set of staggered 21's on the road)...

    Help! Question re: 85D/90D vs P85D/P90D

    I'll definitely get the autopilot activated at some point. The great thing is that the hardware will be there to do it. I realize that it will cost me $500 more later, but I'm just trying to keep the purchase to a price that is not egregiously over my budget now.

    Help! Question re: 85D/90D vs P85D/P90D

    Spoke with my sales rep at Tesla and he confirmed that the P90D has the equivalent suspension to the old P85+. I am therefore going to go with the P90D, but am dropping the 21's and will get autopilot activated later to keep the price down now.

    Help! Question re: 85D/90D vs P85D/P90D

    I am two days away from having to lock and load my order and am suddenly worried that I made the wrong decision. It all started with a plan to buy an inventory P85D which got sold out from under me as I was contemplating it, but then they had a CPO P85+ that I drove and loved. I obviously...

    Buying Quandry

    I did get the air suspension. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who went from a P85+ to either an 85D (non-P) or 90D (non P) in terms of a comparison of the suspensions.

    Buying Quandry

    Thanks all. While I am still a little worried that I will find the suspension a bit mushy as compared to the P85+, I decided on the new 90D. I appreciate everyone's feedback and advice. This forum has been invaluable over the past few weeks in helping me make up my mind about which way I...

    Buying Quandry

    I went into a Tesla location to look at an inventory P85D that ended up just having been sold before I got there, so while the advisor and I were discussing other options, which after considering my budget, we had narrowed down to orderering a to spec 90D (not P) when none of the other possible...
