Or it was short-sighted to have raised it to $14k in the first place. In any case Most provinces have no EV rebates and the effect that Canada could have on Global warming is minuscule at best. It would be far more effective (if one cared about such things) to raise taxes on gas and get people...

Wow, your decision to post that link says plenty about your own understanding of economics. lol. At the end of the day a country has a lot more flexibility than a typical household, but like a business the money it spends needs to be smartly spent. Just printing money and spreading the love...

Tesla did what was in their best interest and are working hard to help consumers take advantage of EV rebates while they still exist. If they aren't profitable yet building as many cars as they possibly can with the most profitable options I don't see how selling the same amount of cars that...

Just bad timing on your part. They prioritized Canada over the states up to the end of June. We won't be seeing too many more cars until they run out of demand in the states for a bit.

I think you've just become more sensitive to it. It is a sporty ride and the steering wheel transmits the info nicely. Perhaps go from Sport to Normal under steering?

Daninos, let me guess you liked it so much, you bought the company?

yeah music was hiding it, or just invisible options til you hit the middle of the map. Thanks guys. Still so much to learn in the car. And we're the most knowledgeable. Now I'm looking to get the car to start charging after 7 pm. but the app doesn't have any options for that yet.

I can't find options for Navigation to avoid toll roads. Must be buried deep somewhere or I'm blind.

I'm pretty sure the Provincial Liberals accomplished that all on their own. If we somehow avoid going into a recession we owe it all to the greatness of Doug Ford. Excuse me, that last sentence made me throw up in my mouth. So, my other point is that politicians change. Some may be better...

Hey guys, I'm having trouble even seeing the pressure. I understand it should be one of the cards with the trip computer, and rear view camera, but my tire pressure card just shows a basic picture of the car with no tire pressure info (psi or bars)

Taylor if they were spending the money on Education, Healthcare, or basic requirements (police, fire, etc...) most of us wouldn't care. It's their little pet projects and all the layers of management that never manage to do much. This isn't about inequality or paying a fair share it is...

+1 BP. Even worse, I doubt we'll see any cars til 2019, since the EV picture in the states necessitates that they maximize total number of orders there before hitting 200k in sales. Only if they can't sell that many of currently available models will they look to satisfy Canadian demand for...

Day 1 line waiter. Configured Mar 27th. Got my vin and that is all... Metallic Silver, EAP, Aeros. Seems like tons of people have received their cars or have a delivery date who ordered weeks after me. Grrrrr.

Not really a duplicate since this one relates specifically to Canadian concerns. I.e. Will any was cargo to Canada this year, e.g. Rebate,etc.

Got my Vin Configured March 27th. Metallic Silver, EAP, Aeros VIN 286** But the important question is will we receive the model Model 3 for line waiting in Canada?

Where is this portal that shows 4-8 weeks? I don't see that on my Tesla account. But, I have included all of my other information for delivery

Damn. You buy the highest spec'd Model 3 possible. LR battery, PUP, EAP, paint, but have to wait for the car because you don't want 19" wheels? You gotta be kidding me!

Guys chillax. 4-8 weeks Tesla time means that they will ship them out @8 weeks after they are ordered. We'll be getting the cars in June I assume.

Video doesn't give us much / any info about actually sleeping in the car. Did you manage a form of camper mode to keep hvac running all night. How did you hang up those sheets? What did you sleep on back there? etc...

But if you wait the car may not arrive in 8 weeks. They are planning on shipping every car they can to USA over the next 2 quarters to maximize the EV rebate. I doubt anyone on this forum who ordered the $70k+ car wouldn't have spent the extra cash on AWD if it was available. Many of us...

+1000 Can't believe that so many people picked the Tesla even on a Tesla forum. The Tesla is a better car, and long term may possibly be a better value but only if you can easily afford one. And if you don't need a car immediately I'd hold off as long as possible. The Tesla looks more cool...

Should be getting the car by the start of June or so and go on a little road trip. Just curious if anyone has tried Camping mode. Saw one video ( ) but he couldn't get it into camping mode. Anyone figure out a way to do this?I'll mostly be staying in houses and a hotel but wouldn't mind...

They never leave a message and it's like winning a radio contest. If they don't hear from you in 30 minutes the next person will win your car!

All I have to say is

I find the biggest advantage in the winter is the ability to burst through almost any snowbank. But it definitely won't help you brake or corner any better.

One transaction. No selling involved. But boy is it going to cost me. :( The good news is that the Model 3 should be a good chick magnet. I'll get a dog too. Life will be good. More importantly did you take the car out last night? That seemed like the worst of it. Even the CRV wasn't...

Yikes this weekends ice storm in Toronto has me a little concerned about how the RWD will handle the worst of winter. Especially since I'm losing my AWD CRV (along with my wife). I'm thinking I might have to bite the bullet and wait for the AWD at the end of this year and risk the rebate.

Damn. I might have to drive in from Toronto for a shot at driving one while I wait for mine to be built.

Lots of posts pointing out that no Prius can match the Model 3. But those guys are missing the point. With incentives there are MUCH better values available. Smart money is to pick up a bargain not the highest priced "cheap' EV around. If you could get over some of the minor drawbacks cars...

It will definitely be there, but don't be surprised to find a line up to get in to the car.

Depends on US situation. They are trying to end this quarter just short of 200k, so a few more may trickle our way. But once the next quarter starts they will be sending every car they can to the states so that the maximum number of people possible can claim the full rebate.

LMAO. I never believed the stories in here were real....

Ordered: March 27, 2018 (1st Production, Metallic Silver, EAP)

Darth Musk: "I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further." Be glad to walk away with your life!

If the government shouldn't cherry pick (which I agree with 100%) than why support EV's at all? A much larger impact on emissions could be made by raising gas taxes, and encouraging people to buy smaller cars! Or supporting hybrids, or better biking paths, etc... With all of the millions...

Just smile and laugh it off. It's better than crying . Unfortunately that is the big fear these days. Yes, I'm finally getting the car, and then boom 'wtf is this piece of merde'? Look at it this way, it's better to be called off even at the 11th hour, than taking possession and finding out...

Wow. You guys are going at it like rabid political wonks. You are all right. Some people need Awd others can get away without it. But any claims that the dual motor option won't be better is silly. I'm in Toronto so I can live without awd, but i would buy it in a second if I could . I...

Guys give Garlan a break. He's at his mental limit, and very hung up on richer people getting a rebate that he is unlikely to be able to receive . And he's right. This plan helps model s,x and high end 3s get the full rebate, but there won't be much left by the time they are able to build a...

That's the smart play. Usually I'm smart, but last night I wasn't. Hopefully I don't regret it down the road.

Not another bump, just the same delay in deliveries to stop them from passing 200k before the end of the quarter. That's why I was surprised to get the invite. Didn't know how many Canadians they could do before going back to USA. But, I'm sure that almost every single car they produce during...

Good news/ Bad news. The Bad is that US deliveries are being slowed down to maximize EV rebates for as many people as possible. But the rate they are inviting Canadians is a good sign that production is increasing (or they hope it will). FUD interpretation would be that they are at the point...

Not enough dumb SOB's willing to buy this overpriced ipad, with no written guarantee that they will get the rebate, and unable to order the options they really want. Let's admit it must of us would prefer AWD even at another $6k, and by the sounds of it white seats. But like kids in a candy...

The Canadian cars are subject to duties since the batteries are made outside of NAFTA. So that added up to 5% or so I believe. If anything our dollar has sunk since the last price adjustment. If they do another one shortly I would expect our prices to rise.

That shouldn't apply to bureaucrats and public workers who are supposed to fulfill their duties in a nonpartisan fashion. I would understand though that elected officials couldn't care less about any issue except for somehow saving their own bacon.

The consensus seems to be that it's imminent, so I'll go with July 1st too. Honestly, I would think that was fantastic! You hang around these forums long enough and you learn that what everyone thinks, tends to be too good by half to actually come true.

I had a Turo rental on one for next Sunday in West Palm Beach, but the guy was playing games (scamming them somehow?) and doesn't even have the car. Grrrr. Was excited to have a chance to actually drive one. Oh well, the listing looked fishy from day one, so I wasn't overly surprised. There...

Nobody that can afford $150,000 for the car deserves a government handout. Better off paying people to get rid of their 20 year old cars, raising gas prices, etc. Yes, we all want to line our own pockets at others expense while claiming it's for the greater good but really it's selfish...

The process will mirror the states. Employees first followed by owners, and then line waiters. The good news is that they don't manufacture here or have any other companies, so employees will be limited to store staff (hope they don't buy to flip the cars).

Everybody knows it's a more sparse interior and obviously smaller inside. What the owners are so enthusiastic about is the driving experience. In any case based on your list it would be a huge mistake for you to even wait for the base car. Everything you don't loke about this car including...

I really liked the i3. Was considering a REX but was concerned after reading about the potential to lose control when the car tries to regen on snow or ice while turning and slowing down. That was the biggest issue. My 10 year old didn't like the suicide doors, but I seem to recall that he...
