Thanks for the clarification - the upgrade was in June 2020

FSD 12.3.4 downloaded today to my Feb 2017 Model S90D which came with AP2 and had the hardware (MCU & camera) upgraded a few years ago. I do not have HW3. Took it for a test drive around suburban Western Massachusetts - the FSD was excellent and matched my FSD experience in my wife's 2020...

Project CANCELLED. Tres bummer https://www.masslive.com/news/2024/01/tesla-drops-plan-to-build-first-western-mass-dealership-in-chicopee.html

And it is Magic Dock

Open and functioning. Charging right now

I'm very happy with my Feb 2017 Model S 90 dual motor - 120+k miles, multiple cross-country trips (48 states). Free lifetime SC, internet. Sliding sunroof. Ventilated seats. FSD (yes, beta). subzero weather package, homelink, ash wood trim, smart air suspension. Has AP2; upgraded to HW3 computer...

I chose a MY for my wife over an M3 primarily because it was a hatchback. The M3 trunk is a major pain if you live in snowy areas. If you have even a few inches of snow on the car and open the trunk lid, you end up with a trunk full of snow. Doesn't happen with a hatchback like my MS. I would...

Drove by the area yesterday - don't see anything Tesla-related or any sign of construction.. yet

Construction has started....

Excellent location - Big Y has been adding Tesla SC's at quite a few of their larger grocery stores across Massachusetts. Nice to see them cross the border...

Last night, the city council approved the new Tesla Service Center in Chicopee

City council APPROVED the Tesla Service Center last night!

Making progress - the site is at the I-291 exit off the Mass Pike Progressing....

More progress Chicopee progress

Yup - 60-120 miles to Boston (MA), Milford (CT), Warwick (RI), or Albany (NY). The $100 Uber credit didn't cover even one way...

Progress https://www.masslive.com/news/2023/04/chicopee-planning-board-recommends-a-zoning-change-for-a-proposed-tesla-dealership.html

Great to see this!

A proposal has been submitted to create a new Service Center in Chicopee not far from the MassPike exit. This would be great for Western Mass Tesla owners who currently have to get service in Medford (Connecticut, 60-70 miles), Warwick (Rhode Island 80-90 miles), or Boston (90-120 miles)

In my experience, factory tires only last 20k miles or so. At 25k I replaced all four tires on my 2017 Model S. I'm now using Michelin CrossClimate2 and staying very happy with them, putting 40k+ on each set I used to swap wheels for winter snow tires, but the CrossClimate2 handle our New...

I can add similar info for my Feb 2017 S90D with transferable FUSC 117,000 mi on lots of interstates throughout the US - based in New England but at least 15-20 drives of more than 2,000 miles Supercharging: 515 charges at 288 locations totalling 15,766 kWh at a cost (if billed for usage) of...

I just had this issue two weeks ago. Warning Low Coolant showed up on the middle screen on my 2017 Model S with 115k miles. I thought the coolant system was sealed - the SC pointed out that was correct but if the coolant was low they needed to find out why. The SC found a stuck 3-way valve and...

2017 Model S 90D Odometer112,500 48 states + Canada, 20+ National Parks Battery Degradation 90KWH version C has been excellent: Initial 100% range 2/17 294 miles 12/18= 285 miles (odometer 36k) – net loss 3.1% 12/22= 276 miles (odometer 112k) – net loss 6.1% Since Oct 2018, data recorded daily...

I would love to do it - the 'missus might not be so thrilled. Then again, she might....

Yes. My early 2017 Model S with MCU2 got HW3a few years ago. A couple of moths ago, I received the upgraded cameras. About a month ago? I finally received the FSD software

Just finished a road trip that closed out the last of the lower (readily accessible) states. I have had 10 cross-country (4 East-West; 6 North-South) in my 2017 Model S, and only recently was able to close out my goal of the lower 48. The last straw was North Dakota earlier this week. The...

I had recently posted this in another forum but I think it adds to discussion

As my car turns 100k miles, I wanted to summarize my experience. 47 states + Canada, 20+ National Parks Battery Degradation 90KWH version C has been excellent: Initial 100% range 2/17 294 miles 12/18= 285 miles (odometer 36k) 06/22= 283 miles (odometer 100k) Since Oct 2018, data recorded daily...

Same problem here in New England. Almost make it impossible to use Autopilot at night,

Still available?

Trying to start a poem? Let me count the ways....

Open! I just charged there

There were 3 people working onsite with two Tesla trucks and one Model S

I was there this afternoon and saw the Tesla trucks and electrical installers. Looks like it will be in service soon, perhaps "even today".

As a physician who has actually seen a bezoar in vivo, I can tell you it looked nothing like an Amazon King...

Nice location for MassPike travellers. It looks like it will be at the Big Y Supermarket which is the major local grocery store chain. Massachusetts has recently renumbered the exits on the MassPike based on the mileage from the NY/MA state line (finally consistent with the rest of the...

"When Tesla sells a car, they don't satisfy 1 unit of demand. Instead the car sold satisfies one unit of demand and creates 1.2 or 1.5 or something units of new demand". What a great concept. Much like how we assess the "spreadability" of a virus by it R-nought (R with a subscript 0). We could...

Rainy but construction proceeding nicely at both Eastbound and Westbound plazas. Westbound is farther along Photo this afternoon

Rainy but construction proceeding nicely at Eastbound and Westbound plazas. Photo this morning

Found it last night, at Exit 60 (first exit east of the tunnel), a few hundred yards north of the Parkway. Nice location, plenty of superchargers. Decent mix of food options. Wood 'n Tap, pizza, Chipotle, ice cream, Chinese food, sushi. Panera. Nice addition to the Merritt Parkway run. Our other...

This place is getting a bit busier. 3-4 Teslas charging when I stopped by today. Large convenience store with dining area open. Nice, clean bathrooms. Lots of 18-wheelers filling up.

This service nicely supports my habit. Thanks!

My Model S 90D (Feb 2017) has the version 3 battery and I've had surprisingly little degradation, even after almost 74k miles in 47 states. 100% battery is still 284 miles, and the majority of my miles have been on superchargers. The car came with AP2 and I received the HW3 upgrade free when...

Nice to see this. Looks like the continual product improvement being slipstreamed into production that we now take for granted from Tesla, and that is often missing in competitors. I only wish they could deliver it all via software so that those of us with earlier versions could benefit.

Stopped by today. Charge rate was about what I expected (87 kW) for a 2017 Model S90 starting from 40% SOC. The online display indicated "reduced service" but that might reflect the fact that the store and bathrooms are not open yet. There were a few people working on the gas pumps and in the...

About 10 years ago, we installed a natural gas generator after a massive early-season New England snowstorm left us without power for 8 days. That was an unusual storm; we probably average less than 10 hours/yr of outage. The generator was around $5500 all in, ordered and installed through Home...

I use it to keep a record of dates & mileage for tax purposes

Had my Feb 2017 S90 upgraded to HW3 in June, followed by MC2 upgrade earlier this week. I had been waiting for the email invitation to upgrade the MCU that I thought would come but decided to email the local SC and they told me to request it on the app. HW3 is nice. But upgrading to MCU2 is a...
