    New luxury vehicle tax coming to Canada January 1, 2022

    Just wondering if there is any chance Tesla could deliver a base Roadster to Canada by December 31, 2021? A new 20% surtax (luxury tax) is set to take effect on January 1, 2022 on the amount in excess of 100k (as per the latest federal budget tabled on April 19, 2021). That’s on top of the HST...

    Which color do you prefer your Roadster 2020?

    I’m hoping for Ferrari solid red to be available. It would be a fitting colour for any super car.

    Charging ring discoloration

    It’s an known Easter egg. You activate it by clicking 10 times on the charger handle while plugged into the car. I would think doing it again might deactivate it as well.

    Anyone get the Event invite yet? No Word and 1 week away.

    So if we are wait listed and never make it to the invite list, what happens to that award? Does it rollover to the next unveil or will we get something else in exchange (like some free supercharging or some other token gift) for our efforts in ‘selling’ Teslas back then? If nothing comes of it...

    I have no idea. I’m not looking for money. I’m looking for lodging and transportation locally

    Supercharger - Williamsport, PA

    This location has been in permit status for over two months. Anyone local can weigh in on why this is taking so long? A previous post mentioned that this location already has a permit for such use as is it a refueling station and therefore could go ahead without further permit application. An...

    Wife caved! Question for Michiganders and others from cold climates.

    Just to put a wrench in the mix, I live inToronto, so similar weather, we have a 2017 Model X 75D with a range of 381 km (236 miles) when new, now 370 km (230 miles) now at 48,000 km (roughly 30k miles) so very similar range to the Model 3 SR+ and it has not been a problem. We charge it at home...

    Screw in middle of tire

    I had a screw in the front tire of my X in 2017. Plugged it, no issues for the last two years and 30k km since then. The tires are getting evenly worn and will eventually need changing soon but not because of that screw!

    Upgraded V2 Supercharger - Do 75D cars benefit?

    We have a 2017 Model X 75D and at one of the newer supercharging stations in Ontario, I hit an all time high of 128 kWh but only for a fleeting moment. The battery was warm from a 200+ km drive and the outside temperature was around 22 degrees Celsius, so ideal conditions as far as battery...

    Type of battery..

    One more word on AWD and winter, we have had a Model 3 LR without AWD for over a year now and live in Canada. With a set of four good winter tires, we have had no issues whatsoever driving in the snow. I will reiterate what others have said about range in cold weather though, it will go down by...

    Greetings! What can you tell me about my used Model 3?

    With such a low VIN number you have a first run Model 3 likely built in the fall of 2017 with HW 2.5, MCU2 and EAP (enhanced auto pilot) and no FSD unless it was purchased by the previous owner. You should be able to find that on your account page. Enjoy your new ride!

    Prospective buyers- still SR+ or LR AWD?

    I find the trafic maps invaluable. The music streaming is also very nice to have. I never have to touch my phone and and have no buyers regret at all. And... I paid more than that a year ago. I’ve totally enjoyed every minute!

    Prospective buyers- still SR+ or LR AWD?

    You should definitely question the exchange rate and Tesla has in the past made adjustment to pricing in accordance with exchange rate, faster than other car manufacturers. You are also forgetting that the LR AWD also comes with a bigger battery and therefore better range (525 km vs 386 km)...

    Jack Plugs (Poll)

    I don’t understand why you would need more than one? When I change my tires/wheel, I do it one wheel at a time, so I only need one Jack Pad to do all four wheels, right! Please enlighten me if I’m missing something here?

    How many bring your dog in the car?

    Our Cockapoo (Elvis) loves ridding in the X. On trips to the cottage, he sleeps quietly in his bed on the floor as it is a very smooth and quiet ride for him. He stands guard in it when we do errands. He loves the dog mode as well.

    Towing and Super Chargers

    Most supercharging stations have one or two side facing chargers that you can drive forward into and thus permitting you to charge with a trailer still attached. Like on the picture attached.

    New Tires Drama

    I just had the same issue with my 2017 MX75D with 41K km on it (but only about 8-9K km on the original Continental tires). My rear driver’s side tire developed a very mild bulge on the outside side wall and within a week, I had a blow out at low speed. I did not hit a curb, a pothole or debris...

    Which Home Charger Should I Buy?

    We have two Teslas and only one wall charger. We really only charge each car about once a week, maybe twice a week in the really cold winter months in Canada. So we have found no need for more than the one charger to fill our needs. Good luck with your purchase. We love our cars!

    Purchase opinions

    The 85 is a no brainer over the 60. Absolutely no contest here. It will have more range, charge faster and degrade slower, proportionally. It will also be faster !!! Enjoy your new car!

    Supercharger - Toronto Fairview Mall, ON

    The Fairview Mall supercharger shows limited service this morning on the MCU map. Perhaps because they are finishing it up, hopefully painting some badly needed parking lines. I was there just last night and charged successfully.

    Why do Tesla keep going up on the Model 3

    On any given day perhaps but not for ever and ever with no price changes. That’s unrealistic in a free open market situation

    I have that same set up at at different location where I charge only with my mobile connector. I ran 8/3 wire and have a Nema 14-50 plug.

    I got 111 kw charge rate on my 2017 MX 75D this past weekend after getting the 2019.12.1.1 sometime last week. That the highest rate I’ve ever seen. The battery was warm and down to 15% SOC and the weather was nice.
