I've had LR RWD model 3 for a year and for 12K miles, it takes .259 Kw average per mile and I've had a pretty heavy foot for it. Only had my performance M3 for a month so 360 miles of data pretty small but its .414 Kw average. Granted its only been used in cold season but I was surprised by...

Its a tough pill to swallow if you dont get the $5000 rebate but the people that come first always pay the most in any sought out product so I wouldnt say it's unfair

I do think it does look like its specific to FSD, just frustrated how they can be so unclear about spelling it out.

I think both tweets become ambiguous. They were both made when the performance upgrade wasn't an option. So saying all P's will have sports brakes then was under the assumption all P's would have performance upgrade. Same can be said about the 20" wheels on the track will have the better...

That's now how I took it... The tweet, "That issue is better in latest Autopilot software rolling out now & fully fixed in August update as part of our long-awaited Tesla Version 9. To date, Autopilot resources have rightly focused entirely on safety. With V9, we will begin to enable full...

I could be wrong but the impression I got was at least these initial full self driving features will be a part of EAP. I have been searching for clarification on your questions and only found speculation thus far

very nice! that clears it up

Configurator still has full self driving option as $3,000 but doing it post delivery now says it will cost $5,000. I couldnt find any post about this so I'm not sure if this change was made once they released the configurator to everyone today. So will this apply to everyone? Could prior cars...

While I think this is clearly a play to make there quarterly earnings call look better, the configuration has the note: "All orders placed before July 1 will receive Premium Connectivity with satellite maps with live traffic visualization, in-car streaming media and over-the-air updates via...

I have a 2nd reservation that was made little over a year ago. This to me clearly looks like a play to make there earnings call look better. My real concern is there asking for $2500 more except now it won't take about a month to get the car, you will get it in maybe 2 to 4 months??? What if...

I would too... I was pretty much molesting the steering wheel and using deathgrips to get the warning to go away for the first 2 hours.

well that would work even better, wait an extra year and get a roadster for 50K

I will try that grip next time as it looks much more familiar and natural. Thanks!

I ordered in March then pulled deposit back. While I think it is extremely extremely unlikely I think there could be a nonzero chance based on all the bear hate talk who do have at least a few valid points that the company would file for bankruptcy and my deposit could disappear. I think it is...

Having completed my trip and checking on these responses on my next supercharger stop as well as playing with it alot longer here is how I see it. Overall still do not like the update. The hold wheel steady or the slight movement you get in wheel while it stays in autopilot does not work well...

I am currently in the middle of a 500 Mile Road Trip and I am extremely displeased with the autopilot update. It seems no matter how I squeeze, push or do whatever to the steering wheel there is no simple way 2 make the hold steering wheel notification go away. My hands are feeling very...

I'm hoping the "base" model at a 200K pricepoint comes with alot of features standard.

Someone made a thread months ago looking at what they calculated as the theoretical P mode specs. This was based on some assumptions but calculated the numbers via the weight of the car, the max power draw from each cell of the battery, and hypothesized it would be in the high 2's. The fact...

Believe the tweet says end of next week. It's not the end but certainly getting close....

sidenote: I have a 2nd reservation so am secretly very excited to hear the specs / price on all this...

Don't get me wrong I'm very happy with my car overall it's just frustrating when it appears they are working hard on enhancements rather than getting the product right. Maybe they are working hard in these areas its just not buzzworthy but from my side of the pond it doesn't appear so

While this release is exciting news I'm sure most CURRENT model 3 owners would be much more excited to hear their putting effort forth on getting them things promised or big bugs fixed. I.E. Summon feature, phone connection issues; I guess they already have my money though, so why focus on me?

Well thank you very much kind sir. This is why I would assume this would wear hard on rubber but I've never considered the rest... interesting.

I just had a birthday and my mother got them for me so I don't know the specifics but I'll ask her next time I talk to her

Interesting on floor mats, the all weather replacement ones I got are working a lot better I can say. Regarding Bluetooth I've had this happen to me too. Never really troubleshooted it but with that theory have you tried putting your phone in center console or such to see if it fixes it?

Thought of another thing thats a small gripe: Fast Discharge Rate. I would be very hesitant to leave my car at an airport or anywhere but a place I can charge for extended periods of time. This one may be from ignorance and perhaps there's a way to fix it. Twice I've driven to a further...

Good Idea and I agree. Problem is I've managed to break them even with Otterbox and while the $175ish or whatever phone insurance is something I did have, they actually drop you from insurance when you file to many claims in a 12 month period! The ironic part about this as soon as I got the...

For clarity, I'm very happy with my car and don't regret the purchase just wanted to summarize everything from a new Tesla users perspective since most reviews even from independent 3rd party companies I've found come from previous Tesla owners or "people that drink the kool-aid". I say that as...

Part of the phone issue makes me half wonder if its the phone I have. I had bought several very expensive phones in last 2 years that were "waterproof" "destruction proof" and with big otterbox cases and I still find a way to lose/break these phones. After going through 4 or 5 of these in a 2...

Some are specific to me others are going to be general. The phone issue as linked by the poll in 1st response to the thread is plaguing others but not everyone. Some are just personal gripes and small issues. The airbag issue I haven't heard anyone else having. I believe the customer...

Interesting but yeah it does appear Iphones are significantly more reliable from that poll. Perhaps that was just that own Techs personal experience. I feel like the iphone crowd is more likely to drive tesla's that andriod crowd but that could be a false stereotype. I think I try this but...

This is very true! My phone actually often falls in the compartment below the dock.

one other issue i thought of that I didn't add.... Accidental ear piercing audio. I often listen to things on youtube which requires me to turn volume up. I'll get out of the car and when I get back in I'll want to listen to the radio or stream or whatever. When I turn it the volume is...

I’ve now owned my model 3 for over 2 months and while I overall am happy with the car I wanted to summarize issues/problems I’ve experienced that may go under the radar in most reviews I've seen. Some of them are small gripes so I tried to put them in order of importance to me. Without a...

I generally love my car otherwise but this issue can often ruin the experience.

This is by far the most ANNOYING problem with my Car I've had since I got it in February. Several times when it was real cold an''vd raining I've stood with hands full of stuff like groceries etc and been unable to unlock my car. One of my cell phones actually broke from water damage cause I...

understand, I figured with the 18's it would be ok as it sounds like the 19 are a bit "firmer". So I guess I dont need the perfect suspension, when I ride in say a friend or family members somewhat new car I do alot better. I'm driving a 15 yr old car with a broken strut. I've been told I...

Also learning I should proofread before posting as it does not seem intuitively obvious how to edit posts and fix some errors.

To answer question or 2 I got via pm I would love to give more details, truly but discretion is necessary due to this being an ongoing investigation. Facts I could share are I was not cited during the accident. Another automobile involved was violating several traffic laws at the time of the...

Oops double post thread. Was trying to make the paragraphs easier to read. I've never not been able to figure out how to edit my own post in a forum but its not seeming intuitively obvious to me at the moment.

I am writing to see if I can find someone that is interested in "trading spots in line" for the Model 3. They must have a spot that would be available very soon as mine isn't too far off either. I made my reservation in earlish July and as I'm writing this (January 24th 2018), it projects to...
