Earlier this week my brother opened the glovebox on my M3 and I noticed a mouse scrambling out. He said there were two others. Not a good sign. They had made themselves a nest using the insulation from under the carpeting. When we got home, I opened the glovebox again and saw a dead mouse...

Northern MN is still a little barren for EVs. I'd like to see Ely, Virginia, Hibbing, Grand Rapids, and Walker selected in the near future.

Duluth only has four V2 chargers. The Black Bear location should be V3. The Fond Du Lac solar farm is going to be expanded, I believe so anyway since I received a notice from the county planning commission. But I agree, the more the merrier!

I posted this on another thread. Drove by the Black Bear Casino and noticed a section of the parking lot being torn up. Talked to a construction crew member and he confirmed Tesla superchargers were being installed. He didn’t have a completion date. Black Bear is located at the intersection of...

Drove by the Black Bear Casino and noticed a section of the parking lot being torn up. Talked to a construction crew member and he confirmed Tesla superchargers were being installed. He didn’t have a completion date. Black Bear is located at the intersection of I35 and Hwy 210, a couple miles...

1. Yes. With extreme cold weather, expect up to a 40% decrease in range. Completing the battery charge shortly before driving will ensure the battery is at a more optimum temperature. Dress warm. Use the defrost only enough to keep the windshield clear. Use the seat heaters if equipped. Check to...

Shortly after I purchased my M3, I started using a Kill-O-Watt meter to monitor energy consumption when the car was plugged in. Even when sitting for a couple days in a warm garage the vampire loss was about four miles a day and the meter showed negligible power usage (.02KWh). The manual...

Before going on a vacation to New Zealand earlier this year, I left my M3 plugged in with a 59% SOC and the charging threshold set to 50%. I’m not using any aftermarket apps and the garage temperature never went below 50 F. I checked the car several times during my vacation and noticed the SOC...

I test drove an I-Pace at the Las Vegas Jaguar Land Rover dealership. I asked the salesman if the car was an SUV or a crossover since it didn’t look large enough to be an SUV. He readily admitted describing it as a crossover would be more accurate. I examined one in the showroom then test drove...

One thing I never mentioned during my debacle, Tesla claimed they had sixty days to deliver the EDRS to the DMV. When I asked why they didn’t give me a temporary registration to match they had no answer. One thing is for certain, the people at Las Vegas Tesla don’t seem to care. They have your...

The title came from the DMV. Even though Tesla never processed the registration, they at least took care of the title.

The M3 is everything I expected it to be. Never feel any range anxiety, even on long trips. With my daughters Chevy Volt and my car, we spend almost nothing on gasoline. With the rooftop solar, we spend almost nothing to go from point A to B except for insurance and registration. Looks like I...

Two and a half months after buying the car, I received a refund for the registration. Hoorah!

Tesla charged $734 for license/registration/transfer and plate. Or as it is commonly called; registration. I also signed a specific power of attorney so they could happily, their words, take care of the registration so I didn't have to stand in line. I thought I made this perfectly clear in my...

Still here. With my last post, I detailed how I was able to register the car because the EDRS had arrived at the DMV. Still had to pay for the registration, after signing a form affirming I didn’t drive the car after the temp registration expired, because the DMV doesn’t consider an unsigned...

Went to the DMV while I spent an unproductive 1.5 hours on the phone with Tesla, I was promised a call from a manager, didn’t happen of course. Right before I talked to the DMV information receptionist, Tesla customer service called me for once and said I was screwed until Monday. She said it in...

No such thing as a Tesla dealership? News to me, and the customer service rep I just finished talking to. She told me it would do no good to go to the dealer today because all the delivery managers would be unavailable.

Buy a car and expect to drive it. Yeah, I'm really spoiled.

I agree completely. According to Caroline, they fired the first third party responsible for registering vehicles and hired someone else. It seems this second third party is as competent as the first. I don’t need a rental or a loaner, I have another truck I can drive. The thing that gets me is...

I really don’t care what you do for a living, you’re still acting like an idiot. You may think I’m over-reacting, tough. I never asked anyone on this forum to extend my registration. Where did you get such an idea? I’m using the phone and emails up to now because I’m unable to stop by in person...

Thank Thanks Tam. The first time I opened the pdf, it only loaded the first page. I’ll call the DMV to see if they’ll register the car with this document. It is not the EDRS but I’ll see what they say.

How can a person this stupid operate a computer? Or did you slap one of your kids until they did it for you? Pathetic. The temporary placard uses a HUGE font for the date. Didn’t you read my previous post about being pulled over for expired tags? The sticker on the plate is tiny. I’m not afraid...

Flat-bedding the car is tempting, I admit, maybe later. The annoying thing is the service rep who handled the paperwork said they were more than happy to register the car for me so I didn’t have to wait at the DMV. I even signed a specific POA and he said they would take care of everything. So...

I did not trade in a car. I have plates from another car that is in storage but I don’t qualify for a refund because I don’t meet the criteria. I cannot transfer the plates without an EDRS, I have nothing that proves I own the car. License Plate Surrender, Registration Cancelation & Refunds

You don’t get it, do you? I can’t legally drive the car. I’m sure $54,000 is chump change to you and some of the others who posted snarky comments but I have more than a tiny issue with this matter. I’ve never had a problem with Chevy, Dodge, BMW, Honda and Toyota when it came to registering my...

I have this thing called a job and the service center is not open 24/7.

I attempted to submit a ticket through the website and got this response: Oops - something went wrong. Please contact Customer Support at (877) 798-3752 for assistance with scheduling your service appointment. Calling the number did not help, the Las Vegas Service Center is closed so of course...

I can prove nothing. I have an unitemized receipt for the car and nothing else except for an expired registration and POI. Driving without registration is not an option, the fine is $300-$1500 plus a hit on insurance. I've been pulled over for expired tags before but that was because the DMV...

Not an option. The DMV said I needed the EDRS. The Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement does not show the registration fee or a delivery declaration.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I’m the owner of a Model 3 purchased on July 20 from the Las Vegas Tesla dealer. It is everything I thought it would be and I’m more than satisfied. There was a one week delay in the final delivery but I received the car many months sooner than I ever expected. A nice man named Sean handled the...
