Hi Greg, I'm from Cairns and am happy to talk about the good and the bad. I haven't had any major issues; but the cameras failed in the first week (known bad batch) and I've had a few minor rattles, scratches that needed fixing. Tesla use Wilmot's Smash Repairs in Cairns to do the physical...

Have to be honest.. My car picks these up.. but I think you'd know that Autopilot ignores them unless you either touch the speed sign on the screen or hold the gear shifter down half way for like a second. then Autopilot updates the max speed. Mine shows it, but autopilot ignores it.. (known...

Agreed.. till it does.. and I think most feel it will, we just don't know how long that will take..

Thought this was an interesting read.. Tesla’s data advantage. Can Apple, or others, keep up?

I agree, but 1% is a significant number of edge cases.. if you had a crash 1 out of every 100 drives.. you'd be very upset. I haven't purchased it yet, but I think buying it it is more like a donation towards the concept.. and I agree, it may never happen on current hardware.. but also, I...

If your phone has NFC (for like google payments) you can use it as a card. I have lots of trouble with my phone registering so when I get your situation, I just place my phone behind the cup holders and it's registered (same way the key card is)! You can also hold your phone where you put the...

Was thinking about doing the same with a tubeless tyre repair kit as well https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B08GBXHRWC Not sure whether anyone as repaired a tyre while it's on the car without a jack.. is this doable?

That's a very kind offer, thank you. We'll work out what we're doing in early Dec.

I've been advised mid-Dec. I will make a call on where to get it delivered a bit closer to the date. Currently scheduled for drop-off here.

Thank you so much for the detailed information. I'm trying to decide whether I should pick my car up in BNE (and inspect it) or just worry about support should something be wrong on delivery. Regards

@Candleflame Thanks for the insights.. very worrying (waiting on a model 3 in Cairns). Out of interest; how long does an average trip to BNE take you given the 50kw chargers along the way?

I have a colleague who has one - used it at the Pier in Cairns.. worked!

Happy to say the price drop was enough for me to sign up :-) - Reserved March 31/2016, ordered 17/10/2020.. lol

Here's hoping. I'm definitely holding out for a white interior. LR RWD would the icing on the cake.

Wow - guess I was worried about nothing - thanks for the replies!

I was lucky enough to watch a blue model S travel up Dudley St in Melbourne last Thursday evening whilst stuck in a train coming into Southern Cross Station.. It seemed to me that the driver was using cruise control (although I might be wrong) as the car cleanly moved and stopped with the flow...

Talking Tesla @talkingtesla Seems stable

Actually you're right.. mine say the same now :-( - I just keep telling myself it's a year away.....

19 months and counting.. only about another 12 to go :-(

Thanks - was hoping to hit 'like' - but I haven't found the button yet!

Thank you for the detailed response.. I just wish I could get a Model 3 earlier :-( Can't afford an S or X.. I am really stoked that the Qld Electric Highway is going in.. can't wait to emulate you one day and travel around OZ. Best Regards erosco

Thanks!! - I was just reading about that.. I'm now trying to learn about CHAdeMo and Type 2 adapters.. a lot of learning to do....

Wow - Just joined, just read this.. what a fantastic journey - thanks for the documentation. Cheers erosco

Whilst I realise it's still a year away; I'm hoping for superchargers between Brisbane and Cairns.. I'll be living in Cairns so I suspect my first trip will be from the Brisbane Showroom! - I doubt they'll deliver to FNQ - and I think I'd rather see it in the shop first and be picky about the...
