    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    I paid the same for my non-P 3D as I could have got a stealth now. Granted the tax credit is way less now, and almost gone. Anyway, that's how tech works. Early pay more so everyone else can pay less. I don't know why everyone has to complain about it. If you don't like how tech pricing works...

    What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

    2004 Dodge Ram 3500 Diesel I still have the truck but only use it when I need to haul something. I may sell it and get the CyberTruck so my wife can have the 3.

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    It would seem that that is fleet wide. Not everyone likes it the same. That would work well for a good base, but the ability to tweak it locally for your liking would be ideal.

    I would like to be able to set the sensitivity of the Auto setting.

    Vendor Carbon Fiber Spoiler, what else?

    A hood with some style (not sure what). Don't want to mess up aero too much.

    Window damaged trim because of cold weather, Tesla won't replace under warranty

    I don't understand this issue. If your window wipers freeze to your windshield, you don't ask the manufacturer to cover it when you turn them on and rip them off. Instead, you take care in freezing weather to ensure you're good to go before you leave. I've also had frameless windows on a few...

    FSD is Now $7,000

    I agree the price is high and the timeline is long. If we didn't see any progress, or got word the FSD project was going away, that would be cause for an uproar. Self driving is a complicated problem that no one has cracked. We've seen progress in the right direction, so I don't think we can say...

    FSD is Now $7,000

    Lots of valid arguments. None for people attacking innovation when it doesn't happen exactly like people want. The world will pass by while you're "giggling".

    Why, are you also going to stop looking out the window?

    Problems with Auto Lane change in 32.12.2

    I was using NoA with auto lane change on i84 in Oregon. Twice on my way from Hood River to Portland, the car stated a lane change then aborted AP all together forcing me to take over. There was a quick red steering wheel on the screen then it was off. It didn't give me anytime to make sure I was...

    Feature request: car reminds you if you left the 'key' in the car

    This is what I do. Caught my wife leaving her phone on the charger on our way into dinner.

    Vandals can/might attract people to Tesla.

    I'm not sure. Seems like with more exposure, vandals could just get more creative to avoid the cams. I don't understand the need to key another car. It's never crossed my mind to key a car for no reason. It's like coffee drinkers hating on tea drinkers. It's just a different kind of fuel.

    Screen froze with loud buzzing from speakers

    I had that issue sometime this spring. It buzzed loud, the screen went wacky, and it reboot by itself. Never did it again.

    Car seats. Looking for potential solution

    I don't remember the exact brand I used but it was something like this: It Luliey Car Seat Protector It worked great for me.

    Sudden expected acceleration

    It's only wrong if you let up before you smoke the ICE car.

    What's your top feature request that could be accomplished via software update?

    This!! My kids think it hilarious, but it's a bit embarrassing when showing someone new.

    The Best Tesla 3 Accessories

    I don't have one for my phone, but I do for the Tesla. I mainly got it for the anti-glare and reduced fingerprints.

    Molded mud flaps arrived

    Tesla blue is just a paint code. Anyone can mix that color of paint. That being said, I agree, it probably not actually mixed from the paint code and could be just different enough to stand out. I would go black.

    No one cares how he gets the picture, or what phone you have!!

    Molded Mud Flaps on Amazon

    I was looking at them also. Would be nice for the rain. I always wonder what impact accessories have on range.

    Vendor Open Source DIY Model 3 Console Wrap Template

    I thought I wanted Satin Black but it was already gone. I'm taking the chance on Matrix. I have the Obsidian Black paint. BTW @Kenriko, love the pic of the rear view mirror with the Jurassic Park shout on the product page!! :):)

    Vendor Open Source DIY Model 3 Console Wrap Template

    Looks like the Teslabros install video will be published by the end of the month. I'll wait for that. Hopefully Kenriko will have his out by then for comparison. I've used Kenrido's products and I trust them.

    Model 3 Power Liftgate?

    I got mine installed this weekend. It was a lot of work and took me around 4hrs to finish. I haven't got the foot sensor done yet. I was able to easily run the wire using 12G copper house wire and lubricant. The hard part for me was getting to the power source under the dash. There are...

    Love this!! I will be ordering as soon as it's available just because I want the kit, but extras are always cool.

    Vendor Open Source DIY Model 3 Console Wrap Template

    The hard part will be the mirror arm. Depending on how many pieces are used will determine the difficulty. Less pieces = harder but less seams will look better. We'll see how that balance plays out. Hope to see it soon!!

    I can't wait for the Chrome Delete!! @Kenriko - Any idea on cost of the kit? BTW, love my console wrap. Still holding up strong at almost 1 yr in.

    model 3 backed out parking space by itself without any instruction

    Mine kept pulling forward when I would reach for the handle and laughing. I did name it Skynet, so it's only a matter of time.

    Model 3 Power Liftgate?

    I would love to see this same type of setup for the frunk. Even if it was just the soft close so I don't have to push on the hood.

    Jeda just released a new USB hub. Mounts Flush and hides flash drive

    Price is 2X what I would pay. Can't fit a full size SSD. I'll pass. I do like how clean it is.

    I have mine sitting in a box. Got busy with other projects at home. Thanks everyone for the tips. I can't wait to start my install.

    Frunk easy close spring mod

    Maybe Tesla uses the heavy spring to over engineer the frunk pop. Think if you had snow or ice on the frunk. If the spring they installed wasn't strong enough, people would have an issue with that. That being said, people in locations that don't have that issue could probably get away with...

    They decided that was a limited time offer. The prices went back up a few weeks after the tweet.

    Tesla confirms HW3 computer in production, FSD demo on April 22nd [Rescheduled]

    Elon has said may times that he could game the system for the cross country drive but was unwilling. I would assume the same to be true for this event. Time will tell.

    When can we see the Y?

    When do you think we will be able to see and touch the Y in person for the general public? We have a Model 3, and my wife wants to get a Tesla also, but replacing our CX-5 without seeing it in person is a bit of a stretch. Especially when having to put down $2500 instead of $1000. I really...

    What does a Model Y deposit get you??

    I don't think this will be a big issue. In the end you may have to wait to get the configuration you want anyway. I learned on the 3 reservation, it's about getting what you want quickly, not being the first overall. You may think differently.

    Model Y - let the Photoshopping begin

    I was hoping it would have a longer roof line before sloping. Like the CR-V, Rav 4, or CX-5. I'm still waiting to see the real deal but I don't think I'll get 3rd row. Still others will jump on this allowing for a larger used X market.

    Tesla Ban - Security just kicked me out of an EV spot

    I guess I can understand where they're coming from. Still, I would be a bit taken back by that also. In the end it's their property so they can do what they want. I would address that with management as politely as possible.

    Will creep keep car from rolling backward on steep hills?

    Not really for fine tune throttle. This only limits the head snap acceleration.

    This must be said - GREAT experience with Tesla

    I got service twice. Only reason for the second visit was small things that I was nit picking about when detailing my car. Both times, even the nit picks, were addressed quickly and I got a Tesla loaner both times. They were in constant text message contact with me to let me know of the extra...

    Did you upgrade to FSD for $2k?

    That's the problem, they never add expiration dates, they just change the price. Sometime for the good, sometime for the bad.

    Did you upgrade to FSD for $2k?

    I've been asking myself this same question. I purchased EAP for 5.5K after a trial thinking it would go up to 7K after that. Now I could have got FSD for 5K. I would love for them to just give EAP people FSD for free but that not really fair for all who purchased FSD up front for 8K. In the...

    Will creep keep car from rolling backward on steep hills?

    I find the modulation of the Tesla throttle to be perfect. I have a very steep driveway that is also tight. I need to let the family out of the car before pulling the car in. It's so steep my truck spins the tires trying to pull up it, and summons will not work. I simply use hill hold when I...
