    Advice Needed: Convincing Husband to Go Tesla

    Just returned from a 2000 mile road trip in our 2018 Model 3. It was the best road trip I've been on. It was quite, comfortable, charging stations (superchargers) whenever you needed them, and the autopilot took the stress out of driving. Our Tesla is the best car we have owned. Charge at home...

    Does leaving just the pigtail plugged in use electricity?

    I leave my UMC plugged in 24-7 and attached it to the wall no no strain on the cord. Bought another one for travel. 14-50 outlets are not made to be plugged in and out like a 115v outlet. Leaving the pigtail plugged in and hot connected to the UMC is dangerous being Its a live 240v connection.

    How many EAP owners would pay for the 3.0 FSD computer at what price?

    I bought EAP for 5000. and am happy with it. I does a great job driving on the freeways but I'm also paying attention to what its doing. I would not buy FSD as an add on. FSD may never get approved and I would not trust a computer to fully drive the car and put my family and myself in the hands...

    Firmware 2019.12.1.2

    I installed 2019.12.1.2 last week and now the screen freezes, shows the car is in park, does not show the speed, turn signals don't work, goes black, then sometimes reboots by itself. Have a service appointment this week. Car is unsafe to drive in this condition.

    Cost of Fuel Equivalent

    After looking into the EV-TOU plan here in the bay area, I'm going to make the switch and change my rate plan. We will just change the way we do our domestics, washer/dryer, dishwasher, etc after 11:00 pm. PG&E allows 2 changes to the rate plan per year. so if it does not work out we can change...

    Cost of Fuel Equivalent

    Charging my M3 here in California puts me in tier 3 PG&E cost bracket which is 0.27 cents KW/h.If I go on the TOU plan, the cost is lower during 11:00pm and 7:00am but increases during the day time hours so it makes it a wash. I figure I'm geting about 40-60 ICE MPG depending if I'm driving...

    Tesla autopilot HW3

    I'm happy with my EAP. Does everything I would trust a car to do. I think FSD would make you pay more attention to driving in the city to make sure the car follows all the DMV rules and does not crash and hurt anyone. The car is not responsible for its actions. The driver is and would be the one...

    It's great having the HOV stickers but here in the South Bay, Ca, the HOV lanes are co clogged up now with EV owners and cheating ICE's you don't really go much faster than the regular lanes.

    My first Model 3 rebuild.

    Looks nice but will always be considered a salvaged car. States that on the pink slip. I bought a salvaged truck once poured money into it and when it came time to sell, no one wanted to buy it when they found out it was salvaged. Finley sold but at a very reduced price.

    Red - paint quality issues

    Took delivery of our Red M3 in Sept 2018 Our paint was flawless and all the body panels had good alignment. We did have to have the windshield replaced and the new one is perfect. Above picture was taken just after I had the T-Sportline 18" turbine wheels installed.
