    Flat tire out of warranty options

    Is it possible to call Tesla Roadside Assistance for a flat tire? Is there a plan to pay for Tesla Roadside Assistance after the warranty expires? Can't find it if so. I already have ATT Roadside Assistance, but wonder if it is of any use for a Tesla if they don't bring a spare tire, or if I...

    Dashcam footage of rear end collision

    With all the police lights on, I can't help but wonder what this driver was doing during the approach. This looks like an avoidable accident with plenty of opportunity to slow down. From the comments, it seems some other cars emergency braking would have handled this, so it is not reassuring...

    Safe New Orleans Parking

    The SF thread made me think about checking here for parking options. I'll be spending a few days in NO this week and am thinking about the Howard and Fulton Place garages to park. Is there any reason to think these are any more or less safe for 3 day parking than any other parking option? The...

    How do you close the door?

    My car is red, and it shows fingerprints very well, especially on an otherwise clean car. I prefer to close it by pushing the chrome handle to avoid printing the door, but am not sure if this is a good idea given it is mechanical. Just wondering what others do, or if no one else cares about...

    Attaching a transponder above the headliner

    I have a new TxTag, which btw is much smaller than the older square tags (paper thin, about 1" by 3"). Since I don't think I can place this on the windshield due to the coating it supposedly has, I'd like to place it on the glass roof. It looks like it can be mostly hidden by placing it along...

    Sun Exposure

    For years we've had the fortune of being able to park a commute car in a garaged environment. A new job may require parking outside (in Central Texas) all day while at work. Does anyone go to the trouble of covering their car while at work in the summer? I know there is overheat protection...

    Service Center car wash

    I need to bring my car in for service for the first time. While I'm not concerned about the PPF, I don't want anyone scratching the ceramic coating with a not so clean drying cloth, for instance, on the rest of the car. I know it is a first world problem, but are these guys properly trained to...

    State Fair Parking

    I'm thinking about going, but am not familiar enough with the area to know where a safe place is to park (that is also likely to be available). Except to know that the area is sketchy at best at any other time of the year. Any suggestions?

    Curing time for Ceramic Coating

    Looking at the documents that came with my Ceramic Pro Gold treatment, it says 2-3 weeks is necessary for the coating to fully cure, and the installer said not to wash for two weeks. So does everyone really wait that long for curing before taking it out regularly and exposing the coating to the...

    POLL: Did you accept the initial delivery of your vehicle in 2017?

    I thought it might be interesting to see what people did recently regarding the outcome of their delivery inspection.

    Can I add a SiriusXM antenna?

    For a brand new S with all glass roof and PUP with premium stereo, is there anyway to add an antenna? Such as the one would normally be used in the roof or an aftermarket one and put it, say, under the dashboard instead?

    Supercharger - Italy, TX

    This is located between Waco and Dallas on I35 at a Love's Travel stop, with an embedded Carl's Jr. Across the street there is another gas station and an embedded BBQ place (of unknown quality).
