Robinhood is a disruptor, pure and simple. We should understand that as we know what it means to do that in a sector with powerful, entrenched interests. It absolutely has downsides and isn’t right for every investor. But it’s an interesting thought exercise to consider for a moment how FUD...

Model 3 took a heavy flying road debris to the nose, severely denting the hood and gouging the front bumper/fascia down to the metal. My scheduled appt at San Rafael was canceled - they said that they have temporarily suspended collision repair to support vehicle deliveries. Asking here...

Let me know what you have, appreciate a good description or photos. I can pick up this week.

Here in the SF Bay Model 3s are very very common. It's also fairly common to see one with an out daytime "eyebrow," which was a known problem that afflicted many vehicles in earlier VIN ranges. Having experienced it, it's also something that can take a while for an owner to notice. So what...

This would be a nice addition to Enhanced/Smart Summon, and I could see it being a lot more useful in certain cases. It's basically Summon without monitoring - which we know is going to take a while - but with a recorded driving action. Use case: I'd love my car to be able to perform a...

Ugh, wife just let me know she took a large rock to the windshield on her drive home and the crack is growing, already a foot. I remember reading here that Tesla doesn't handle replacements anymore. Any recommendations on a shop in the SF Bay? How long did you have to wait and what was the...

Car fire inside MacArthur Tunnel blocks traffic Reports: Husband killed, wife hurt after being hit by Tesla in SF

It's my understanding that TeslaCam files are saved only when you tap the button on-screen, saving the last 10 minutes of video to the SavedClips directory. It's also my understanding that Sentry Mode files are saved to the same directory whenever the system is triggered. As of 12.1.2, I'm...

Any predictions on what might be surprising about the Y? Certainly we have a pretty good idea that it will resemble the 3, and Elon's given us basic parameters on what to expect with range and price. But what about the little things - will Tesla surprise us with some innovation? Something new...

When my wife hits her commute late, she ends up driving straight into the bright, rising sun heading down 280-S in the SF Bay Area. She reports that EAP gets especially unreliable in this situation, unable to keep a lane when the sun glares just right. It practically drove her into a truck...

I know lots of folks are putting on their winter tires and I'm curious if you're noticing a road noise difference between the OEM tires (foam-filled) and whatever non-foam tires you're putting on. Living in CA I know nothing about winter tires and whether they're noisier at baseline. I'm...

TL;DR: Initially I was confused about the wood dash but now I "get it" because I am unapologetically in love with this car. First off, let me preface this by saying I am not an eco-hippy. Buying the Model 3 is about as eco-conscious of a thing I’ve ever done (after composting, which is...

I've heard mixed opinions on this. I know AP1 does. Yesterday going over the Golden Gate Bridge, my Model 3 thought the limit was 35 despite very large and clearly posted 45mph signs. I assume they are still relying exclusively on GPS data from TomTom?

I've noticed that if I set my iPhone (8) in the cupholder, Apple Pay pops up on my phone. At first I thought it was some random phone glitch, but then figured out it was related to putting the phone in the cupholder. I presume the phone is interacting with the keycard hardware, which is...

Got the car on 8/1, and it came with 24.7 installed. No update since then, and the car is on wi-fi every night. I have done the steering wheel reset since getting the car (mostly just to see what happened). I know updates roll out somewhat randomly, but wondering how normal it is to still...

We've had our Model 3 for less than two weeks, and have put almost 1,000 miles on it. I have been getting used to EAP - figuring when I fully trust it, predicting its behavior, etc. The following two cases occurred within a few minutes of each other and were both instances in which EAP made me...
