    Supercharger - Ely, NV

    Hoping this one isn't a victim of the supercharger build-out slowdown

    Supercharger - Reno, NV - Wedge Pkwy

    Between this one and the one almost completed in Verdi, Tesla is working on at least two Reno area superchargers right now. Hopefully this contractor would be willing to take their expertise 300+ miles to Ely & work on that one next :)

    Discussion: HW.4 Suite - Availability, retrofit, suitability etc.

    My 2018 model 3 screen with mileage and VIN# clearly says "2.5 Computer" .. is there confirmation that the new HW4 Model Y says "4.0 Computer" or something similar?

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    Expecting delivery of new model Y later this month (it better be HW4!!!) -- no VIN yet, but delivery estimate of June 14-28. Has anyone seen something like a checklist of items we should look over when we take delivery? I've seen the reports of various items like door opening/closing issues...

    Discussion: HW.4 Suite - Availability, retrofit, suitability etc.

    Struggling with whether to buy Model Y now (trading in 2018 model 3) or wait for HW4. Leaning towards waiting.

    Supercharger - Auburn, CA (LIVE 3 Feb 2022, 12 V3 stalls)

    It may be 75 actual miles, but my experience is that it is nearly twice that in battery drain due to the uphill .. maybe 140 to 150 miles of charge or so. The opposite direction is more fun when I use about 50 miles of charge for a 95 mile trip. For those who have enough charge to easily make...

    When is structural battery pack & 4680 cells coming & Why are you not waiting until then?

    Any thoughts on whether we'll see a notable improvement on the current range before before the 4680s are incorporated?

    Dimensions of the Model Y

    Bump .. also hoping for the actual exterior dimensions for may fairly narrow garage. My model 3 only has a few inches width to spare when pulling in the garage.

    Supercharger - Sacramento, CA - Freeport Blvd. (LIVE 29 Sep 2020, 8 V3 stalls)

    Actually the chosen location is strategically interesting on a number of levels. It is reasonably close to both I-5 and Hwy 99. The distance is not that far -- about 1.4 miles to either freeway. It's also fairly close to US50/Business 80 for those going to the Tahoe area -- about 2.2 miles...

    [Updated] Model 3 CCS / CHAdeMO adapter

    My bubble is appropriately burst .... but I still want a CCS adapter .. there's a ton of new CCS locations going in the Sacramento area & elsewhere

    [Updated] Model 3 CCS / CHAdeMO adapter

    A whole bunch of CCS/Chademo installations going in around Sacramento .. I really wish I had an adapter since several are going to be at locations I frequesnt ..

    Supercharger - Truckee, CA - Brockway Road (8 V2 stalls)

    Several great choices by this charger .. the Thai is decent, the Sushi place is creative and tasty, and the beer/burger/etc. place does a fine job ..

    Haven't noticed an issue with it .. but I'll see what they say about it.

    Battery Replacement

    I have an early August AWD build ... I sent a note to customer service and they replied that mine is not among those needing a battery replacement. They did, however, say I needed a fix on my hood latch .. didn't know about this previously.

    SF Car Break Ins - Where To Park?

    I'm not from SF, but will be visiting for a day soon. I'm concerned about the car break-ins I've been reading about. Does anyone have a recommendation for a safe place to park near the Embarcardero & Ferry Building area?

    Anyone got their CA "purple" stickers yet?

    Battery Replacement

    The Tesla bulletin says .. at the bottom .. to "Refer to the VIN/Bulletin Tracker or Customer/Vehicle profile to determine applicability of this bulletin for a particular vehicle." .. it sure would be nice to see the VIN list to see if our cars are affected.

    Variable (higher) supercharger pricing

    It was probably inevitable .. pricing at superchargers is going up and will have more location specific variability: https://electrek.co/2019/01/18/tesla-increases-supercharger-prices/

    Supercharger - Westminster, CA (LIVE 22 Dec 2018, 24 Urban stalls)

    Westminster as an example of new Tesla pricing structure is shown in this story ... $.34/kwh Tesla drastically increases Supercharger prices around the world

    Model 3 CHAdeMO adapter is coming soon-part number already assigned

    If you drive to the Tahoe or Truckee area, a Chademo adapter could be a handy item, especially on days when you're stuck for hours in traffic on 50 or 80 The only chargers between the Sacramento/Roseville/Folsom area and the Truckee/Tahoe area are Chademo or CCS (near Strawberry on HWY 50...

    Air compressor for tires at which CA Supercharger locations?

    Thank you Moderator ... all of the comments about gas station requirements are quite interesting .. I'm also hoping that if anyone has seen a tire air apparatus (other than Kettleman city), they'll post that information in this thread. Thank you.

    Still waiting for CHAdeMO Charging Model 3

    The big Sierra storm yesterday that caused many drivers to be stuck on I-80 reminded me that it would be great to have a CCS or Chademo adapter. Although I wasn't caught in it, I know that many drivers were stuck on the very cold road for several hours, while others had to take detours that...

    Air compressor for tires at which CA Supercharger locations?

    A few months ago, Tesla announced that air compressors would be added to supercharger locations. The only California one I've seen is at the Kettleman City supercharger. The Tesla map doesn't include this feature in supercharger descriptions. Has anyone seen air available at other...

    CHAdeMO charger in Richmond CA

    A little off-topic, but I saw the interesting reference to "drivethearc" .. I hadn't heard about this program and I'm a sucker for free charging for my model 3. It appears that the Chademo and CCS ports are all that's available on the DriveTheArc units ... and we don't have any Cheademo or CCS...

    Can a Model 3 D make it from Cupertino to Truckee without stopping?

    I've made that trip from Sacramento in good weather .. going up the hill it uses nearly 2x mileage. I wouldn't chance it from Cupertino, especially in cold weather. Rather than go to Rocklin, try the other Sacramento charger off 80 at Truxel Road. I've only been there 3 times, but it hasn't...
