    Looking for Tax Credit Clarification

    We have a Tesla solar system (panels, now power wall) on 12/23. What has to happen for us to qualify for the federal tax credit in 2020? Install complete, powered on....? Also, should I expect the usual Tesla delays that I have experienced with their vehicle side, or are they pretty good...

    Front end whining from RWD

    I’ve done some searches, but can’t find anything that really describes what I’m hearing. I am hearing a low volume, high pitch whine from the front or front right side. It seams to be most notable around 50-55mph and varies slightly in pitch with speed. I have a RWD so that rules out the motor...

    Arrowhead Stadium Charging

    We are going up to for the Chiefs/Raiders game on 12/1. I see that there are Chargepoint chargers in the stadium parking lots. The chargers have a fee for use, but I can't find any info on whether or not you will also have to pay to park. I am assuming the answer is yes, but would like to...

    Charging Locations

    We just completed 2 round trips from Dallas to Nashville last month. Charging went great each time, I just have one suggestion. I love that the chargers are located near shopping and attractions, but that isn't very convenient when driving at night. We ended up having to make extra stops...

    What Happens When the Warranty Runs Out?

    I've had several issues on my 2018 Mid-Range Model 3. All of which have been fixed under warranty, but what happens after that runs out? I am starting to get concerned that the seemingly never-ending chain of small issues is truly never ending. I have had the frunk latch stop working, AC...

    Spotify Not Advancing

    Is anyone else having an issue where Spotify hangs up at the end of a song? Mine will get to the end and then just spin the loading image. If i press next it will go to the next track with no issues.

    Sudden Range Drop

    I think this is probably related to the heat here in Dallas, but I have seen a huge drop in range that started about a month ago. Is this normal, and will it come back in the fall?

    Showing more lanes on the screen?

    I’ve had my model 3 with regular autopilot for 4 days. I got the latest update (2019.8.3) last night. I am now seeing more lanes showing up on the side of the screen. Is this new, or did I just not notice it until now? This is indicating 3 lanes on either side of my current lane (7 total...

    It’s like Tesla isn’t in the business of selling cars!

    I’m just here to vent, I guess. I ordered a demo MR Blue/Black/Aero on 3/14 with free paint upgrade and a price adjustment for the mileage. The car was actually at the showroom. I have sat in it. The salesman didn’t enter the price adjustments that day, and then had the next 4 days off...

    What happens to AP/FSD when the prices “go back to normal”?

    Im just getting caught up here, so forgive me if I’m bringing up something already discussed. Do we know what features will be in Autopilot vs FSD after the price goes back to normal? Will TACC and lane keeping be enough to pull in $5k or will they move some features from FSD (parking, summon...

    Logic behind putting the higher margin deliveries upfront.

    I’m no financial expert, but I was curious about the thought process behind pushing the more expensive cars out first. I get that they will make more profit on those vehicles, but what happens when they finish those and get to the base model? Wouldn’t it be smart to spread the delivers out? I...

    Determine Cost Per Mile?

    Math makes my brain hurt. I've done some digging and haven't found an obvious answer yet (or it went over my head). I was wondering if anyone has a formula for determining the cost of electricity per mile on the Model 3. I'm assuming we need the usage rate (energy used/miles driven), then we...

    How to approach landlord about charging?

    We are currently renting a single-family home in the Dallas/Ft-Worth area. I have a reservation for a model 3 and no plans to move before I take delivery. I am looking for tips on the best way to approach the landlord with the request to wire the garage for charging. It would be ideal if I...

    My way of "sticking it" to TX

    I posted this in another thread in the "Tesla Motors" section but thought it would be worth posting here as well. If my math is correct, it does not cost much more to do a factory pickup in Freemont and pay CA tax than it would to have a car delivered to TX. The CA tax is 7.5% vs 6.25% in TX...

    Factory Delivery

    I am not a fan of road trips. I just don't like being in the car for hours at a time, and growing up, my parents wanted to "drive straight through the night" only stopping for gas, food to eat in the car and bathroom breaks. I am thinking though, with the required charging stops, I may be more...

    Previous Owner/Buying Used Model S

    Just curious if anyone knows if I were to buy a used Model S from a 3rd party would that make me eligible for priority M3 delivery? Or would you have had to purchase directly from Tesla?
