    How much for yearly maintenance

    Every few years break fluid and AC fluid. Break pad every decade or so. Shock absorbers probably just like any other car.

    Range on my LR AWD seems low

    It is actually 310mi Range at 100%. 310m-10%(31m) = 281m.

    V10 Impressions from those who have installed the update

    I notice that summon turns the wheels while the car is standing. Not good. It should turn the wheels while moving.

    Model 3 Software Update 2019.9.x

    In the service centers you can connect to the Wifi and it will automatically push the latest update. I waited outside before they opened and connected to the Wifi in Santa Clara. The update appeared soon after. You have to know the password, and I was able to google it. So theoretically it...

    FSD 2k or 3k for those who purchased EAP for 5k?

    Compared to the traditional car model giving options after the car was sold is quite extraordinary and generous. You buy a luxury BMW, Mercedes or Audi you do not get any upgrades ever. Maybe a fix due to a recall mandated by the regulator. That Tesla is giving new features for an old model year...

    range when drafting?

    If I tailgate that doesn't mean that everyone behind me starts tailgating as well. I have no control over the people behind me.

    range when drafting?

    Wouldn't TACC or EAP at a minimum distance be safe because the car pays millisecond response-time attention to the truck in front? Drafting on autopilot at minimum distance should theoretically be safe, no?

    Did any new MR M3 owners get the free 6 months supercharging after using a referal code?

    I send in a referal code after placing the order. My friend says he sees a notice of it in his account. I do not see free supercharging in my account, it says pay-per-use. I have used SCs maybe 5 times so far and never been charged. I have the Model 3 less than a month, so when a bill comes...

    Tesla's clearly were developed in Cali - weather issues

    My 2006 BMW 3-series wagon has better auto-wipe. It's not perfect either, but better. And it has a little wheel on the stalk to change wiper speed in increments. IMO they should allow to press the left stalk button and then use the right steering wheel roller to set speed in small increments...

    California, how long do you wait for your plates to be delivered?

    So it is not possible to find out the license plate number before receiving the plates?

    Snow tire sale

    I used to have two sets of rims. One with summer and one with winter tires mounted. I'd swap them myself in fall and spring in about 45 minutes. The winter rims can be ugly since the weather discourages parading around anyhow. Where would I get the cheapest rims?

    Help me decide: RWD or AWD? $8,000 difference!

    I had an Audi A4 and a BMW 232 wagon, both AWD. In winter in snow it is priceless. You can break through slushy parking lots at ease. It doesn't slide when accelerating in the rain around a curve. I hear it reduces wear and tear on tires due to more even use of tires during acceleration. I...

    Ordered Nov 2, LR AWD, Deliver Jan 2019!?

    They will bring the car to my house. I'll use the time to scrape together the money.

    Ordered Nov 2, LR AWD, Deliver Jan 2019!?

    They just scheduled delivery for Friday 11/16! Guess January 2019 was a wild guess.

    Ordered Nov 2, LR AWD, Deliver Jan 2019!?

    I just noticed it shows location on the right under user picture. I am in San Jose. I'll ask them if I can pick up from factory. Maybe that's faster...

    Ordered Nov 2, LR AWD, Deliver Jan 2019!?

    As the title says, I ordered a week ago on Nov 2. Today there was a "Done" button on the "prepare for delivery" page, and I pushed it. I think I did that before... I also called a couple days ago and was told that things are in motion and I just have to wait. Now there is the text "Estimated...
