    Got EVed?

    What’s it called when an EV parks at a gas pump? Do you say you “Got EVed”??? I saw a Model 3 park at a gas pump here in Richmond, VA. Shouldn’t we all avoid parking in front of devices that are meant to provide power to other forms of transportation...

    The perfect wallet?

    +1 for the Flowfold Minimalist Wallet. Avoid the recycled sail cloth because it doesn’t breath enough in your pocket. Also just got one of these... Ultra C-Ti

    Is Model 3 your only car?

    I have a 2006 Lotus Elise and a 2001 Toyota Tacoma. I plan to sell the Lotus in the spring since the M3D is such a blast to drive. The Toyota might be next if Tesla can give the 3 an official tow rating.

    Lotus to Tesla

    @lotusland, I am also coming from a Lotus Elise. Didn’t drop the cash for the P but got the 3D. Couldn’t agree more with your comments. Still haven’t put the Lotus up for sale, how about you?

    Rear window replacement...

    I have a stress crack on my rear window as well 56xxx vin. Appointment on Monday for SC to look at it. @spurs10 I heard that the lack of red tint was a sign of a manufacturing defect that did not include the UV coating. Can anyone confirm?

    3D Maxpider Kagu Mats for Model 3

    They finally arrived from autoanything.com! Well worth the wait. Super light compared to other weather techs that I have owned. The fit and finish is really nice.

    Side swiped...

    Virtually! Update 39.7 shows cars and trucks side swiping me all the time. This one was at a stoplight with no car movement. Makes the blind spot feature almost worthless. It also shows cars two lanes over in the next lane. This update needs help! Btw - Still the best car ever!

    How do you carry house keys?

    +1 for Schlage. I have the Schlage Sense deadbolt lock and can have Siri unlock the door without having to type in the code when it is raining. I no longer have any keys in my pocket.

    iPhone XS (Max) as a key

    I have the XS Max as well but my M3D is in for paint correction so have not be able to try the key. I can say the Bluetooth connection to my AirPods has been horrible. Hopefully Apple will fix it with a software update.

    3D Maxpider Kagu Mats for Model 3

    @zoiks66 if you order the Model 3 with Dual Motor then there would be no reason to remove the 3D logo!

    3D Maxpider Kagu Mats for Model 3

    10/3 is my new autoanything ship date after 2 delays. They must use the Tesla algorithm for shipping estimates.

    Software Update 8.1 2018.34.1

    Never had phone key issues before this update and now I have to open the app next to the car to get it unlocked. Annoying!

    Steering wheel turns to left automatically when stopped

    Mine does the same on my DM/AWD. Seems odd to me as well!

    Slow discoveries, or How to silence the entry chimes

    @intjester I have the same habit of mashing the brake pedal and with the car being so quiet the chimes are annoying. Slowly learning to avoid the brake pedal on entry!

    Transmission lever doesn't work sometimes

    @dano9258 I let a friend drive my car and she kept having gear issues too. I realized she was feeling the first “click” up or down on the lever and not pressing to the second and final “click” if that makes any sense.

    Driver's side only unlock?

    @RedModel3 Most thieves will not be able to figure out how to use the door handles so I think you will be safe. ;)

    Which wheels do you have? My 18” Aeros are nice and quiet.

    Aftermarket wheel owners -- is there a market for the Aero wheels

    Love it! I would take some 19” or 20” Aeros! They 18” Aeros look great but need to be bigger and save some electricity. I will take some unwatered Aeros on the East Coast.

    AWD Non-Perf VIN Assigned!

    Congrats @spike09 !!! Delivery delayed! BUT just a 25 hour delay, car is in Alabama and should be ready on Friday, 8/10... I think the wait irritates my friends and coworkers more than me at this point. People in this area still don’t know what a Tesla is... Virginia First Day Line Waiter...

    How do you rotate tires on tesla?

    Do I really need to replace all four tires at the same time? I wonder if this applies to Dual Motor Teslas... If so I might be a tire rotator.

    Chrome delete on white model 3 - white or black door handles?

    I like the black handles but was tempted by the white. I would be concerned the doors might get scratched more from passengers not seeing them on entry. My Pearl White will be here in 13 days! 3M Clear bra day 1, Tint day 2, Chrome Delete Day 3!

    No Trade. Financing but not via Tesla. I did get an email a few weeks back telling me that the white would still be $1000 and the price dropped for the AWD and would be honored. They also pressed for me to change to the performance model or any other changes that I would like. As other have...
