    Front License Plate Mounts

    I live in CT - so had to purchase in NY. Still waiting for permanent plates, but I needed to mount my external EZ Pass transponder for a trip. The transponder fits over the front license plate, which is required in CT. I knew I was going to have to install some means to mount a front plate...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Picked up today in Mt. Kisco. Appointment at noon, checked in at 11:50. Signed docs, Delivery advisor paired keys, and was on my way by 12:20. I'm a former Model S owner - so I skipped most of the spiel from the advisor. Car was flawless. Took 20 miles to calibrate Autopilot.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I financed with Tesla - assigned to US Bank. The first payment is built into the amount due at delivery. FWIW, I take delivery tomorrow, 8/16. Next payment is due 9/30 and on the 30th each month going forward. I didn't get to choose the date.

    Ok To Plug In To A 14-50R Outlet?

    Be careful with that upside down plug. I almost found out the hard way that the charging cable will need support. Post in thread 'SR/SR+ Waiting Room' SR/SR+ Waiting Room

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Update: Ordered 6/20 Blue/Black/18/AP Pickup in Mt. Kisco, NY (Tesla doesn't 'sell' in CT) VIN 7/31 8/2 Did the chat thing on Tesla website - was told SA would contact me. Sent text to SA. Called SA. Called Sales number for Mt. Kisco. Waited 20 minutes on hold. Got answered by rep in...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    No. Thankfully, it only fried the adapter. Had to replace the adapter and plug. Yes, I bought the holder to support the transformer built into the Mobile Connector. The weight of the previous transformer pulled the plug part way out of the outlet causing the issue. I'm hoping the holder...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    That sounds a little pricey to me. IT sounds like you may be looking at the J1772 adapter. You'll get one of those. I was talking about the Gen 2 Mobile Connector 14-50 adapter here: Gen 2 NEMA Adapters

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I found out that the NEMA 14-50 adapter for the mobile connector isn't included. That's definitely a priority if you plan to charge at home. When I ordered, they were out of stock on the Tesla site. I asked to be notified when they were back in stock and a week later was notified. Using the...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I made my first Model 3 reservation in April, 2017. Mind you, reservations were $1000 during the pre-production period. I was pretty far down the list. Soon after that, I discovered that current Tesla owners would be moved to the top of the list - so I set about trying to buy a used Model S...

    Yes. Here is the link to submit a support ticket including suggestions for new or existing features. Contact Support - Waze Help

    What's Wrong With This Image?

    Considered and rejected. Google makes their money by charging advertisers for space in their apps. When I set the car type to Electric, there is almost zero chance I will click through to compare gas prices. And yes, I've considered boat towing and lawn mower filling and picking up the...

    What's Wrong With This Image?

    So "what about-ism" for the fringe towing case case and "what about me-ism" for the rest? I'm pretty sure that Google and Waze could figure out more interesting things to show me once I've set the type of car to "Electric." How about the equivalent of "ev stations near me?" That's an order of...

    What's Wrong With This Image?

    Good point - but I'm not really interested in comparing gas prices ;-)

    What's Wrong With This Image?

    You'd think that once I set the car type to Electric, Waze would better detect what to show me.

    Missing Dashcam Icon (2019.16.3.2)

    Same thing happened to me in my Model S. Hoping to find an answer soon.

    2019.16.3.2 Release Notes

    But why display an empty window? Bad UX/UI.

    So nothing this time? Sigh.

    Continuous Faint Humming Noise When Parked

    This happened to me the other day. Then I got a phone call and couldn't hear the caller. It turned out that the car failed to relinquish the Bluetooth connection, so it never fully shut off. In essence, it thought someone was still in the car so the climate controls kept running. That's...

    Does the Model S Center Console Phone Dock support power only or power + data?

    I'm not sure. I currently have a USB drive inserted directly into a USB port for the DashCam. I have the hub inserted in the other USB port. I have the phone dock connector and a second USB drive with music loaded on it inserted into the hub. All seem to be functioning properly.

    Does the Model S Center Console Phone Dock support power only or power + data?

    Bought this in October '18. Works beautifully. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076Q4TDFG/

    i-Pace Test Drive

    No, I didn't see anything but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I just took the sales rep at his word.

    i-Pace Test Drive

    That's the impression I got as well. It was definitely a limited window. The sales rep indicated that they weren't getting any models for sale until the middle of the 4th quarter.

    i-Pace Test Drive

    Thanks. This is further evidence that perhaps my sales rep was mistaken. If you could drive a model with the production battery, why couldn't I? I guess maybe, like Tesla, Jaguar is rolling vehicles from west to east and it will eventually get to the east coast (I'm in CT). Looking at your...

    i-Pace Test Drive

    You are correct about them being somewhat evasive. Having said that, it was the first thing the sales rep told me when we sat in the car. He must have gotten the question about range before. I. too, found it odd that nearly all of the shortcomings were blamed on the fact that the car was a...

    i-Pace Test Drive

    Thanks for the kind words. I have driven the Model X and the i-Pace comes nowhere close in terms of interior room. As you said, though, nothing really does. No, you are not getting the wrong impressions re: the roominess. I'd call it comfortable. But I'd have a hard time calling it "roomy."...

    i-Pace Test Drive

    I think the sales rep was trying to let me know why the rated mileage only showed 90 miles when we started our drive. He didn't elaborate as to why the full charge number was so low. Your insight re: acceleration, though, makes sense. It could have been restricting. Having said that, I'd...

    i-Pace Test Drive

    I got an invite from my local Jaguar dealer last week to test drive the i-Pace. After having to reschedule once because the prototype hadn’t arrived, I got my chance this morning. Here are my impressions. I’m posting here because I drive an uncorked 2017 S75. Exterior: I don’t know, maybe I...

    Supercharger - Danbury, CT

    No, but you're right, I probably should have. Next time, if needed.

    Supercharger - Danbury, CT

    Looks like some ICEholes have taken up residence. I suspect they are carnival workers - they were there for the entire hour we spent in the mall Sunday. These two are in both images.
