My top ones are 62% TSLA, 35% AAPL, and 2% BTC. I'll probably sell the AAPL before selling any TSLA.

What is a “SMC bed”?

Tesla has recently released the Highland Model 3 with its updated steering wheel. The release closely aligns with their announcement of a new yoke design addressing previous peeling issues. I'm curious if the refreshed Model 3's steering wheel will also be the same one available for the Model S...

Mine does that most of the time. Another intermittent issue I have, when I press the button on the Wall Connector to unlock it so it can be removed from the charge port, it acts like I clicked it twice and quickly unlocks and then relocks the port.

No, that doesn't look too fun to replace the filter. I'm a little disappointed that they made it so buried. I'd say it's probably worth at least a few hundred dollars to let Tesla do it when the time comes. I was going to replace the cabin air filter but it's not in stock currently... but...

To add a little bit more info to the thread, in the Tesla shop, you can buy a cabin filter that fits both the refreshed S and X. But it doesn't call it a HEPA filter so there still must be an actual HEPA filter somewhere in the car. Model S/X Air Filter

The thing under the tub in my photo has "Active Grill Shutter" embossed on the top of it. It does look to be about the right size but I couldn't figure out how to open it. I was able to peeking inside and it didn't look like it had a filter in it. As far as I understand, an Active Grill Shutter...

That’s where I expected the filter to be when I took out the tub but there was nothing attached to the tub in the Model X.

Here's what it looks like after I took out the frunk tub.

I'm trying to track down a musty smell in my 10 month old 2022 Model X and so I was going to check the state of the HEPA filter. I took out the frunk tub expecting the filter to be behind in like in the previous years of the Model X but it's not there. I can't find any reference to where it's...

Have you made any progress on solving the problem? My 10 month old Model X has started having a musty smell too and I haven't been able to find the source.

What app made that comparison?

I think the glow behind the Tesla chargers is mainly an artifact of the iPhone camera. Parking is in the same area as you'd use for Amazon Fresh (when it eventually opens).

Looks like the shorter the drive, the higher the Watt Hours per mile. Probably most of it is just from getting things warmed up sufficiently. You could try driving about 10 miles, stopping and then immediately starting a new trip. I bet the new trip will give you a much more reasonable rate.

I'd like to see the Dragy acceleration graphs for the long range to compare the chill, sport and insane modes.

I turned the fan all the way up and got in the third row. I really couldn't tell if the air was coming out until I put my ear right up to the vent and could hear it and slightly feel the air blowing.

I don’t think the seat vents are supposed to be functional in the third row.

Make sure your phone is updated to iOS version 15.4, that seemed to fix the problem with using the iPhone as a key for me.

Yesterday, I couldn't use my iPhone as a phone key. I updated iOS on my phone to 15.4 just now, walked out to my car and it works again. Hopefully, it is really fixed and not some sort of fluke. Now I just need to resolve the problem with the door popping slightly open when I walk by it in the...

I've tried toggling it off-and-on over various road conditions but my 59 yo ears are unable to tell any difference. I also don't find the cabin to be noisy.

Is the consumption graph missing from V11 in the Refreshed X? Here's a screen capture that I ran across on twitter. It looks like the icon for it is a green graph but I can't find the option for that graph in my car.

I'm having the same problem trying to use a iPhone 13 as a phone key with a refresh Model X. My wife has an iPhone 11 and it works fine. I also tried an older phone of mine (iPhone 5s) and while the latest iOS app won't run on it, it works fine as a phone key. Tried all of Tesla Service's...

My fob problem was that one of the fobs was delivered with a dud battery. Replaced the battery yesterday and I’ll see how long it lasts.

I have insurance for my Model X through State Farm and I'm paying $666 for 6 months and have a slight discount from multiple policies.

Maybe the Work In Progress is the stockpile of 4680s that they've produced to use in the Austin factory.

As a testament to how quiet the refresh Model X is, I was stopped in the left turn lane at an intersection, waiting for the protected turn arrow to turn green. I didn't have the music on and could hear a faint sound of "Honk, honk, HONK, honk HONK" in the distance. I eventually realized it was...

1) Yes, FM radio. 2) Yes, Sirius/XM with a separate subscription. 3) I think, about the best you can do currently, is to put the car in drive, and before you drive off, reach back to the rear screen and start a video playing. At least that's the only thing I was able to get working. 4) And...

I haven’t been in a 5 or 7 seater but would guess the hook is in the same place even though there is no third row. A hook on the second row would mean the FWD would lift them up when the door opens.

Just in the third row.

A minor issue but the Atari Games seem to be missing from the refreshed X or were they removed in v11? From another thread, it was said the reason was because of missing controller support. Also, I'm unable to play Cuphead because I can't get the controller to do the big jump. Anyone else...

My issue is backing into the garage with Homelink. I have to back into my garage so that it can reach the charging cable. I don't have the auto open or close settings turned on because I don't trust it. At this point, the side mirrors are folded for backing in and the homelink window covers up...

Yesterday I started getting a message "Adaptive ride control disabled/Drive with caution" so I made a service appointment for tomorrow. The remote diagnosis says that I need "Air Spring Module - Front - RH (Remove & Replace)". Not crazy about them servicing it on the last day of the year but...

The architect for the garage (and house) was Charles Goodman. He did a lot of mid century houses in the DC area during the 1950s & 60s. Awesome house to live in.

Yeah, I think it is going to eat all kinds of Tesla owner's credit cards and paper but I think I'm cured from putting anything on top of that console door now. I asked the technician if I should come back and watch how he takes it apart because it'll probably happen again when I go home and he...

The pavers are run seamlessly from the street, up the driveway and into the garage. I made myself finish that project before I could order the Model X. Luckily, my gas car didn't leak too much oil on them before the Tesla finally made it.

My Model X is finally here. The SC moved up the delivery day by one day so I picked it up yesterday. They seemed busy, not crazy busy, but it did take them about 30 minutes after I arrived to have the car ready. Immediately after sitting in the driver’s seat for the first time, I set my key card...

In the app, it shows the VIN for me but not on the web page dashboard.

Checked my MVPA this morning and Tesla has added the $2,000 pre refresh order discount to it. It shows up in the "Order Adjustment" section. That was the last thing that I was worried about other than the condition of the car upon delivery. Delivery is setup for December 28th so they applied...

Could be mine! But I’m not supposed to pick up a white/white there until the 28th.

How do you tell how many miles are on it?

On Friday, my VIN showed up and today they called me to say it should be arriving at the SC on the 27th . I asked about the $2,000 pre-refresh discount and he said that it was noted on my account and should be reflected in the final price as it gets closer to the delivery date. If everything...

Just to add another data point. I didn't get a text or email along with my VIN yesterday and still haven't gotten one. Luckily, the VIN hasn't disappeared so far.

Yesterday, I checked my account and February changed to TBD for no apparent reason. This morning I checked again and VIN!!!! 7SAXCBE52NF3289## Original order was pre refresh on 1/7/2021 Long range, 6 seater, white/white, 20" rims, FSD and I've made no changes since I placed the order...

If you've been considering a Roth Conversion and have TSLA in your IRA, the anticipated drop on Monday from Elon's latest "selling 10%" comments might be a good time to convert at a lower basis.

Paying off your mortgage will obviously give you a worse return if TSLA continues to go up BUT if it doesn't and something happens to causing it to drop, even temporarily, having your mortgage paid off will give you more confidence to hold and not sell at the low.

The batteries are more energy dense but unfortunately there are less batteries in them by weight so it pretty much balances out to not any better mileage.

I've got some Arcimoto stock too and wish they could move at the speed of Tesla (the company). I'm number #27 in their reservation queue from 10 years ago but still haven't gotten my vehicle. Will the Arcimoto's still qualify for the rebate even though it only has three wheels?

I've thought about that but it seems like if you have $100,000 IRA and convert it with an example of a 33% tax rate and then invest the resulting $66,000 in a Roth, you'll have a 1/3 less (but tax free) at the end instead of paying that 1/3 in taxes at the end. Seems like you end up with about...
