    Model 3 Roof Rack Options

    i have a kayak and that's what I need to transport occasionally some weekends. I only carry my bike once a year to a store for maintenance. But it's important to me to not have to give up my kayak over the car I drive when I never had to before. I don't want to put something behind my car so...

    Model 3 Roof Rack Options

    I'm not sure what is meant in the FAQ about not posting "referral codes." If they mean I cannot post a link to a product we are discussing then I don't want to do that but that's kind of nuts. They can delete the post if I have committed a crime but I wanted to say that a kayak rack option...

    Pleather for all...

    I don't really understand what "FSD" means. Anyway, I hope that the Model 3 or some future model is eventually going to provide a well made electric car that allows me to eventually have one I can put a kayak on a rack (without "wing doors"), could fit a lot inside, such as how a Prius wagon can...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    thanks - I'll check out the Model 3 threads. I had forgotten what the model number was as the weeks passed until you mentioned it. I definitely will want the biggest battery I can get due to being a person who drives everywhere and avoids airplanes. My long distance drives is where I would look...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Thanks very much. I reserved the car online during the big announcement. I understand I could get the $1k refunded, something like that and it takes a year or more before I could get the Model 3. Hopefully I will have gotten more use out of my 2013 subaru outback limited by then. I may have a...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Ok, I could go find out what kind of dryer outlet it is. The apartment was built around 1999 or 2000, I think. But if changing the dryer outlet is required, the complex might not go for that. I would have to also figure out if a Tesla friendly connector will fit it. The nearest Tesla dealer is a...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Just noticed the other note -- I am sorry for the misunderstanding, but I didn't snark at anything and I did not ask specifically about the supercharger. I simply took the opportunity of a thread talking about all types of charging for someone in an apartment to ask what to do about that issue...

    I guess I need to go back and relearn the difference in J1772 chargers and a public L2 charger. I do have the Plugshare app on my phone though I guess i need to learn to understand it better.

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Thanks. I don't live near Miami, unfortunately. I wish Gainesville had lots of places to charge. I will have to learn how long it takes to charge from a J1772 charger. If you have to pay every time you need a charge and I drive a whole lot, it might wind up costing more than gas. I don't have to...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    As I mentioned in the responses I gave already, I was not talking about Superchargers. I was asking what other types of chargers there are for me to use if I buy a tesla and can't charge at an apartment. Singling me out like I'm hellbent on using a Supercharger misdescribes other things I have...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    There is a standard outlet in my garage that is attached to my apartment. I don't think they're going to want me to alter it but I could ask if I knew how to phrase it. There is a clothes dryer outlet in my laundry room next to the garage too; the kitchen is on the other side of that.

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Thanks for trying to help. I am not interested in specifically "superchargers." I am trying to learn what to do if I can't charge at home. What are the options? Some other type of charger than a "supercharger" at some business? Or is it best to just not buy a Tesla until the infrastructure...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    Since hiroshiy rushed to rate my question a "dislike," I wish he/she would answer my question if he or she knows the answer about charging for those who don't own a house? Then I can judge whether it's safe to go through with buying the Tesla I put a deposit on when they announced a new one a...

    A Vent.....thanks for listening

    It sounds like if you don't own a house and there is no option to charge at your apartment due to limitations then you shouldn't buy a Tesla, right? Or is there way to regularly charge somewhere local without hogging a resource?

    Model X Autopilot Problem - Pretty Scary

    When I use adaptive cruise control with Subaru Eyesight I don't typically set it to much higher than the speed limit, for starters. I haven't experienced a situation where the car kept speeding up and never slowed down with a car in front of me but it has at times waited until the last second to...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    Wow, I wish I could edit my post to add paragraph breaks, but posts here don't look like they can be edited. I wonder how Ohmman added his signature line. I'll try to add one. The content of all my posts are personal intellectual property, and is intended solely for publication on TMC. Do not...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    I would like to read over the instructions for AP. I think they should call it something else. Auto Pilot suggests to a careless driver as a technology where you don't need to do anything. I know the instructions tell otherwise and am interested to read what all it can do. I have enjoyed...
