    Splash back is still a problem.

    Driving a Tesla is dangerous (if you have to go back to ICE!)

    We had to make a quick trip to the store. The Nissan Murano was in the driveway, where the M3 was charging. I was told, by my friend, I could use his car. IT WAS TOO COMPLICATED!!!!! Finally got home, but felt stressed. Windshield wipers kept turning on when I was trying to go forward or...

    Blog Watch a Tesla Paint Robot Spray the Model 3

    Shouldn't that be "UDDERLY ridiculous"?

    Did you get EAP? Why or why not? (Poll)

    I am on my last 2 days of the FREE TRIAL. Took a 2000 mile road trip and found I did NOT like most of the features that were available. As my Korean "son" said, "Don't get it Dad. It isn't smart enough yet". I must agree. 1. Did not like the self-driving mode. 2. Limited use of...

    Did you get EAP? Why or why not? (Poll)

    I cast my vote, but it did NOT give me an option to explain "why".

    Rain Sensor?

    On the 26th day, after almost 6000 miles of driving, the first significant rain occurred at night in Kansas. AUTO ceased to be effective. Light rain brought on fast; heavy rain ran the intermittent mode. Splashback brought the wipers to stop totally. I took it in only to be told that there...

    Glitch while driving: Concerning

    I have found that I have accidentally turned the volume up or down, just by movning my hand across the steering wheel. Is there any possibility that the cruise control knob is scrolled even when not engaged?

    Brake Hold is one of the coolest features nobody talks about

    Until now, I have always driven manual transmissions. Subaru is one of the most popular cars in Colorado. "Hill Hold" has been on Subarus for several years and was always very helpful when trying to start UP a hill. I believe there were a few other car models that also had that feature for...

    What was your maximum charge rate at a supercharger?

    GEtting ready to take my first LONG road trip. Total should be about 5000 miles. After reading this forum, I'm getting nervous. Was not expecting a lot of problems from charging stations. Fortunately, I only have 2 events that are scheduled. The rest of the time is unscheduled and there is...

    Colorado invites

    This is a valid concern for discussion and I have found a lot of information that I did not know about BEFORE I ordered. Wish I had known this. Might have made a different decision.

    Invite: 7 April Delivery: 15 May Credit: January 2019, according to my accountant. Must be filed with tax. However, I was surprised that there is both a federal AND state credit.

    General Discussion: 2018 Investor Roundtable

    Wish I could go on a tour. Went last month to Fremont to see a Model 3, but was told I had to go to Santa Clara. Asked about a tour but was told "there are no tours available". I did go to Santa Clara so I could actually SIT in the Model 3. Liked what I saw. After waiting 2 years and 1 week...

    Why I gave up and bought a Prius Prime

    I went to the Denver Auto show last week as I was about to give up. I was really going to go find something else, even if it was a 2017 in hopes that the price would be right. The next day, I GOT THE MESSAGE! Not sure how the timing came like that, but decided to go for it. Hope I did not...

    Losing enthusiasm for Model 3

    I'm afraid that I, too, am losing enthusiasm. I am turning towards looking at hybrids that will offer me much of what I wanted in the 3 except for the fact that I have solar on my house and I wanted NO FUEL COST while driving in my home state. With rumors and pictures of 3's available in the...

    Any 1st day reservations/owners w/o invite?

    I was IN Santa Clara, CA, on 31 March 2016, standing in line from about 8AM, at a nearby Tesla dealer, with everyone else. I would guess there were probably 200-300 people in that line ahead of me. I was able to sign up and deposit my money, before noon that day. We are now 60 days away from...

    Tesla owner configurations begin

    I was IN Santa Clara when I made my reservation, although I live in Denver. Is there any indication that the reservation location influences the position in getting the invitation?

    Poll: 81% of Prospective Model 3 Owners Say They Won’t Pay Upfront For Full Self-Driving

    I selected NO for 2 reasons: first, I'll pay the penalty IF it occurs in my lifetime. second, how long will it take states to create laws allowing it.

    Why are solar companies going out of business

    My friend, who is a researcher, confirms that it is the Chinese that undercut the solar companies, HOWEVER, he feels that the companies aer fighting back. How successful they will be, only time will tell. I can say that I have had solar on my house for about 10 years. With the solar credits...
