    Undercarriage pressure wash?

    Taking Tessi into the shower with you, is one thing , but sitting her onto a bidet and shooting water into her nether regions , is quite another , especially at her age .

    Show me your red M3's with aftermarket wheels

    These are my favourite on a red car so far ! Hope someone makes them for Tesla soon, or I may have to buy the originals and slightly modify them to work , and change the Centre cap.

    Vendor Official Signature Wheel Gallery | Fitment Q&A Thread

    I was wondering if you have a wheel that looks like this one ? (or very close, or if you would think about making one in the future ?) It was the first wheel, that I have seen in person, that really grabbed my attention and loved how it looked on a red car like mine. Also loved how great and...

    Solar panels charging 3 while camping?

    When I go camping with my kids I can easily go a few days or more without power. Instead of a powered freezer. Get a good cooler (I have 2) and freeze a bunch of water bottles (1 to 4 L sizes). They stay frozen WAY longer than ice cubes, to keep food (including meat) and drinks ice cold...

    Orbital Wheel Covers

    The original Aero is already dark, if I was going to make a change , it would only be for the silver. Perhaps in the future they can offer it.

    New, more advanced version of rear lighted T for Model 3

    My 3 is Red , so (I am only guessing) it would be better to go full brightness , to get the better color contrast ? Also, Roughly how much extra time , does it take to connect to both circuits (as compared to license plate only) ? Last year, I was quoted a price for install, but that was to...

    New, more advanced version of rear lighted T for Model 3

    So it looks like there are two brightness's ? If doing the simple install (without tapping the brake circuit) : Are you able to choose which of the two brightness you want ? Or is it all predetermined, so you only get the extra brightness if connected to both circuits ?

    New, more advanced version of rear lighted T for Model 3

    Great Idea ! Hope to be surprised by the reasonable price from Evennex, as the $300 price for the original version, kept me from pulling the trigger this past year. ( as after currency exchange and installation costs it was going to cost me over $500 CAD)

    I want more cowbell, baby...

    Don't worry about it, from now on you will only put it on, on purpose . In my year of ownership , I have never put it on by accident , only when I truly have the fever and need more Cowbell ! Nothing should ever cancel / override The Cowbell , except perhaps the Fart mode .

    Steering Wheel Alignment

    On my kids "vehicle" I just hold the tire steady between my knees , and then twist the steering till it is straight. Elon has probably designed a more complicated procedure, for doing the same thing.

    TSportline added their logo to all their wheels - voice your disappointment!

    Wow, I also noticed that if you buy a wheel / tire combo, they remove the tire manufactures logo , and then circle their own logo in red , before shipping you the wheels.....Hard pass in this foolishness.

    Hill Hold - Different for Uphill vs Downhill

    It is NOT a bug , and is actually common sense I like it the way it is , as there is thought behind why it works better this way . When going uphill , you want the "hold" to engage easier , so we don't accidently roll backwards downhill and bump a car behind us. However, when going downhill...
