Traded Snow White in for a 2018 Model 3. Still gas free. I'm now commuting well over an hour from home and only charge 70% on the Model 3. Every trip is double with a Tesla.

ME, me me.... They both have LTE service?

Look at the planed range on the performance Model 3, It's now under 300.

If you are replacing a battery in the S/X that may be about right. Mine was $165 while back. Try another service center for pricing.

I think it would make more sense if they offered destination charging vs supercharging. Especially with Superchargers right in the same area.

The longer I want to make my purchase, the better the Model S Plaid is getting. Just imagine what another 2 years will do.

Yes, sometimes that is the case. I remember a few years ago that the Birmingham Alabama supercharger was paid parking. There if I remember correctly the local restaurants would validate your parking pass. This was also the case at Chattanooga TN charger but the booth attendant knew you was...

As it was mentioned by DomDeWild , this is a good thread to follow. In most examples though, the brake system is a wearable item and usually not covered by any warranty.

If it's anything like the recently installed GM (EVgo) chargers near 646 and 45 (HEB), I don't think they will get much use at that price.

Oh but do you remember Earl Scheib? I just remember they were more shady than Maaco.

It doesn't sound as if it's a caliper although I have heard of this before. Apparently the paint can increase the temperature of the braking system by not allowing the caliper to dissipate the heat as designed. As mention, get a second opinion from a different service center. BTW, what is their...

FYI, you can always use schedule charging so your car will be ready at the time you depart. The wording is a little misleading but you select Schedule under the app, select Off-Peak Charge, Set Departure time to when you want the car to be charged to your set SOC. The car will calculate when it...

There's an ole saying. "Better get Maaco." Oh, and if someone needs the link.

When we had our 2018 model X, I purchased the 4 yr / 50K extended warranty. I can't remember the price but the peace of mind for the wife was worth it. Now, is just 2 years 25,000 miles ext warranty worth it? You're basically paying 13 cents a mile to have peace of mind. I think it's interesting...

How much do you really think you're going to be supercharging the vehicle? I will say when charging from home, the Model 3 will be cheaper to operate. They are two completely different cars. I would test drive if you are not far from a service center. Also as what was already said, the Model Y...

I would think with today's prices, the Happy Meal may cost more than the tray.

Congratulations. From the Falcon wing doors to the windshield back to the 3rd row seating, the Model X is just in a class of it's own. Get a few miles on it and you will enjoy the auto drive feature and not look back. The turn signals are easy for us as well. I switch back between driving my...

This needs to come quick. I have a nice commute up that way soon and it would be a great bail out.

Can you say cash cow? Now let's get this stock moving 🆙... I know I know there wont' be any profit. It will just be perpetual with Tesla building more and more chargers.

I wish I had a scientific way to help with this answer but I can say it is similar to using a older laptop. The lag on web pages are not there as in any other Tesla vehicle. Pages load quick and I haven't had any crash on any intense web page. The system is suppose to be known as a 10 teraflop...

You can follow Kyle on his install with a DC fast charger. I'm not sure how many video's he has made on this or the status of hooking one up. Maybe this will give you some ideas on what all is involved.

The dealership network will welcome you with open arms. You didn't mention price or dealer markups so you should be good. Then again, most other brands are not selling so finding a huge markdown may be in your favor.

Hi. Welcome to TMC. Most have been said, not to worry to much. From the charts you can see that calendar aging is somewhat linear up to 55pct (50pct noted state of charge) It's ok to charge more as needed but storage according to chart is best 50pct or lower. I recommend using schedule charging...

He sent some links about the map FW but they didn't work. They started out like this. Here's what was mentioned in an email.

To maintain battery health, It's best to leave the car at a low state of Charge. That's not to say it's bad to charge to 100 % but calendar aging has been found to cause worse degradation. If you look at the below chart from Marine lithium batteries in operation | Nordkyn Design it will show...

Yea, that didn't work. interesting they changed the bounce back to include -QA. I'm having an issue with No route found to this location on one of our Teslas when I'm in the housing area. On a lighter note, I have used OSM to help update the capability of Summon. There is a thread about this...

It amazes me of the many statistical crashes on the roads and highways that are investigated by NHTSA, they only want Tesla to do recalls. Chalk this up as another example this administration does not want Tesla to succeed. Update: Oh no, they ticked off mom. Now it's the FCC.

Maybe, resetting your cookies may bring them back? Just for this site of course.

Performance all the way. If you don't like the larger rims, you can always post them on CL or the like and buy 19's. If you don't want to be zapping your passenger in the back seat all the time, you can select Chill mode for those days. The P over the LR was known at one time to be a tad lower...

Here ya go. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/2973187/

I don't think his post aged well.

It's difficult to see the CF with the dark interior. It don't even look like CF. It only stands out with a white interior.

C for coal?, I C what you did there.

I was played once when I went into Cheetah mode where the driver didn't pull up to the light until I was already out of cheetah mode. Next time I plan on practicing this. I had heard that you can break the first light, go into cheetah mode, then ever so slightly release pressure on the brake to...

On the new model S/X, there are no stop mode options. You are stuck with hold as stopping mode.

That is the best. Great story starting in your teens. Seen an add the other day; "Male 48, looking for a woman that owns her own plane. Send pictures of plane...."

Adding to the confusion will be the single pull option to engage A/P. This feature works great until you just want cruise control. Also with single pull, when you disengage Autopilot by turning the wheel, it will also cancel out cruise control as well.

Great job. interesting that Tesla has the data on the turning or lack there of the rear wheels turning. If the rear wheels were sliding and applying the brakes did in fact cause friction on the front of the vehicle to stop the momentum then there may had been your answer. That's good news. What...

Interesting that different markets and locations changes features. Here in US, I'm not able to adjust below 50% Wish I could for 50% with buffer is actually approx. 55 pct. Have a neighbor come in start it up, run the fluids through, Na, just kidding. There's not much to worry about. If it was...

Get you one of these and bring back the excitment. https://store.dji.com/product/dji-avata-no-rc-goggles?vid=135201 Select the intro tab and watch the cool video. Cheapest way to go flying and not break the bank, all done from your back yard.

You can always get a nice key card holder. Much cheaper than a fob. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08QN884BD?th=1

It's such a secret that they didn't even tell Elon yet.

They even removed the drive modes. No creep or roll drive modes available on the new S/X.

There is more to the Cybertruck than what we've seen so far. Elon keeps saying this is their best product so there must be some amazing things happening under the hood.

This was being referred to Bob Iger

Did this help? Love to see Track Mode on the MX Plaid. Drag strip mode is nice but Track mode would make the MX a beast!

There are those few customers that this needs to be said to. Not all customers are right.

Welcome to TMC. Congratulations on your Model Y purchase. The performance is a Beast.

Yes sir, I agree to that.

I keep hitting the wrong button. Autowipers, yep, another fun thread. I do like this idea.
