    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Got hit very hard in the rear this evening in my 2018 Model 3 with FSD. It’s likely totaled and I’m ready to move forward on an S. I’ve watched the FSD transfer incentive come and go but with a totaled car will mine just die with the model 3?

    Thanks for your thoughts. I think if I felt the way you do I wouldn’t buy a Tesla. Sure maybe I need to adjust my expectations about how Tesla sells vs. traditional dealers but on balance I find it an overall great experience.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I’m not really sure why people get so bent out of shape about Tesla moving around pricing on features and incentives. A week doesn’t go by when I don’t hear a commercial from some local car dealership about the latest and greatest incentive that they’re offering that expires at the end of the...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    No doubt the sales people at traditional sellers are all over buyers, even on the $30K car she bought. You just have to be focused when they're pitching you model upgrades, a vehicle off their lot, financing/leasing options, clear bras and extended warranties! They weren't too thrilled when I...

    Just went through the unbearably predictable and horrific traditional process with my daughter’s car having purchased two Teslas previously. It was the same stage play I had seen so many times before with con artists around every corner. I do love our Teslas but the ease of the buying process...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Looking for and FSD fan to give me some insight on the bumper camera. I use FSD every day and have enjoyed the journey since 2018. It's about time for me to upgrade my 3 to an S but there's no urgency. The FSD transfer got me and I pulled the trigger, but then the bumper camera noise...

    Is there somewhere that displays the number of strikes or are you all just remembering? Also, is it any red wheel or just the one that requires putting the vehicle in park to reset? Thanks!

    If you're really into it you can use this calculator to figure out how may miles it would take to drive your score up again. Easiest way is to jump on an open freeway with AP on and log some miles.

    CNBC loading error on Tune-In

    Same problem here, but I've found a work around that works about 95% of the time for me. Select Tunein from the bottom tool bar, then News subcategory then open CNN. Let it play for 10 seconds or so and then select CNBC from that same subcategory. This does not work if you use any of your...

    Model 3 HW3 retrofit questions, wait time, issues

    Minimum Autopilot Speed Gone

    Just noticed there's no longer a minimum speed in Autopilot. Used to be 18 but now even 0 is possible. Pretty narrow application, but interesting. 20200106_193406 by 1deepthink posted Jan 6, 2020 at 7:52 PM

    Where can I purchase Tesla Model 3 Tire Pressure Sensors

    I have OEM tires and 19" wheels. I'm seeing 3-4 pounds of difference between the car's display and a pressure gauge. (gauge being higher tested with two different gauges). Also, I have had one summer/winter tire swap. Has anyone seen this or have a recommendation? Thank you!

    Tesla Owners Can Edit Maps to Improve Summon Routes

    I've made several parking lot updates around town and tested it over that period to see the impact of the changes. I know they're working because the car correctly took a one-way drive-thru/loading area at Lowes. However, despite all of the parking aisles and curbs/islands being mapped out the...

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    Maybe those of us who purchased FSD before 4/19 will get the 2nd gen chip they're referencing? "Or is it possible that the second generation of the FSD chip (already in the works) will be required for Level 5 autonomy?"

    Disappointed with Jeda

    Jeda is a joke. I've ordered the original wireless pad and the updated one. Both took multiple inquiries on my part to follow up on their false delivery promises. Neither pad has ever worked correctly....but they're really good at marketing!

    Can any of you audiophiles comment on the sound quality of our integrated Slacker vs. bluetooth Spotify? My ears and I think an old post I read tells me that the sound quality is better when it's integrated vs. bluetooth. So would that mean an integrated Spotify would be better sound quality...

    100 charge to 300 miles

    Not me on Washington. Just another member of the tribe. :) With my 4 mile downhill commute I actually create energy on the way to work so whether I'm 300 or 310 miles is pretty pointless. Just love the car and its tech like most here so tracking interesting topics.

    100 charge to 300 miles

    Hey @ngogas ! Same experience in many ways. I picked up 9/18 as well in Salt Lake. Charged to 100% for the first time last week out of curiosity and it topped at 300 miles. Total mileage is 6,200....and if you were driving down 1700 South about an hour ago, that was me following you :)
