    Supercharger - Tacoma, WA (LIVE Mar 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    Confused! I never said it wouldn’t work and I never said it would cause problems at all. I like the idea of this configuration and whatever the reason behind the design. I was just pointing out that I have never seen this layout or anything close to it and I’ve been to 30 plus superchargers...

    Supercharger - Tacoma, WA (LIVE Mar 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    And you don’t see this configuration different than 95% of superchargers? I’ve used many superchargers and this is the only one setup this way that I have seen.

    Supercharger - Tacoma, WA (LIVE Mar 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    Who’s up in arms? From the looks of it you could technically charge from either front or back.

    Supercharger - Tacoma, WA (LIVE Mar 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    No actual info but with the weird configuration it would seem more likely. I live in Tacoma area and the location seems good for all ev types imo because 16 and i5 converge and you get a lot of people from across the bridge plus all the car dealerships in the area.

    Ship it to them.

    Anyone done this to your Model 3??

    🤢🤮🤢🤮🤔 I remember the term “riced out” if you did this ish to any Japanese car back in the day. What’s the equivalent of riced out in todays lingo? Definitely no tasteful mods on that car and he should be embarrassed to be seen near it let alone drive it.

    Seattle Touchless car wash recommendations?

    I never said my method was more environmentally friendly

    Seattle Touchless car wash recommendations?

    Best car wash is at your home in your driveway. Touch less or not I refuse to use any type of carwash.

    2022 Model 3 SR Accident: Acceleration While Braking to Park

    Honestly it would be better to admit If you did accidently push the go pedal instead of the brake and save yourself and others the headache and waste of time. I know it can be embarrassing.

    Is it me, but are 2018-2020s are better builds than 2021/22s?

    IMO the 21-22 have better build quality and fit and finish. I may be biased a little bit though ;)

    WTT: (Trade) White Dash Trim (2022) Model Y for Wood

    As I read it he has the new (2022) version.

    Declared as a total loss

    Well depending on your states laws around how an insurance company determines value of your vehicle they would use todays market value not how much you paid for it. Also any amount they offer you is negotiable if it is a total loss.

    Is my 2022 Model 3 Performance totaled?

    Each company is a little different but USAA will run a valuation on a vehicle that I’m writing am estimate on if the damage estimate exceeds 65%. They look at how the parts will take to get, the length of rental, salvage value, and many other metrics. It’s all a numbers game and insurance...

    Is my 2022 Model 3 Performance totaled?

    I’m in Washington and normally when it’s at 65% valuation I send the estimate to my progressive rep and have them run a valuation on it. I’m an estimator and write progressive and geico. I total cars everyday and I’m certain this one will be a total loss.

    Is my 2022 Model 3 Performance totaled?

    Which insurance company? They are all a little different In determining at what % of value a car is totaled.

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    I have Oregon mutual insurance. The settlement amount is negotiable. It’s all about how rare the vehicle is with all options, color and mileage. I rejected the first offer and they came back with a much better offer. The comparables they used were no where near my P90DL. It’s not just my...

    PSA 2021 center console can scratch itself

    Internal temperature of 165 equals hotter exterior temperature

    Welp finally happened to me…windshield stress crack

    I understand but just be prepared for Tesla to push back on covering this. Tesla is well known for denying all kinds of warranty work

    PSA 2021 center console can scratch itself

    We don’t go that far but we try and avoid eating or even having fast food in the car from how it stinks up the car.

    Your joking right……..those Starbucks sandwiches can indeed get unreasonably stupidly hot

    Welp finally happened to me…windshield stress crack

    I’ve had Tesla service replace 2 windshields over the years and they do a good job. Mobile service is not able to do it. Also if you have glass coverage on your insurance policy you can get reimbursed since Tesla won’t bill your insurance company directly.

    2012 Model S P90

    So it most definitely can be market based.

    2012 Model S P90

    Not shocked at all. Lol. Congrats.
  26. PWlakewood

    Used 2021 Model 3 or new

    2021 has matrix led headlights, heat pump, new console, black trim. Not sure the cutoff month but I bought a 2021 P3 and it’s the same as the 2022. Only thing I haven’t confirmed is battery difference.

    Aggressive Turning

    I agree but once you get FSD beta the safety score goes away and back to normal spirited driving. ;)
  28. PWlakewood

    Aggressive Turning

    Gonna have to switch your driving style to granny mode. :D I noticed it’s normally when you accelerate out of a turn or when you enter a turn at high speeds or what the g-meter thinks is high speeds. I was able to get perfect scores after driving a lot slower around all corners and turns.

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    Yup but he didn’t even sell it for Market price since it was to a friend.
  30. PWlakewood

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    glad to hear you sold it and all that really matters is that you are happy with the sale price. Also not shocked that you didn’t sell it for more since it was to a friend and likely much easier to deal with.

    F/S: 2021 M3P wheels

    Well it looks like a couple posts up you did have an offer which looks like the best offer yet.
  32. PWlakewood

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    Yup you were correct. No one but you knows anything about selling or pricing cars. Way to go. 🤪🤪🤪🤪

    Only thing that matters is that you are happy with the sale price.

    21 M3 LR - Is my car a total loss?

    Not true. I’m an estimator and we have cars sitting in our back lot for months waiting on back ordered parts to come in. The insurance companies only really care about the value and whether or not it makes financial sense to repair it. Most insurance policies have a 30 day cap on rental car...

    21 M3 LR - Is my car a total loss?

    If there is any damage at all to the battery housing whether it’s from the accident or being loaded onto the tow truck it will have to be replaced so in that is the case then yes

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    Well when he sells hopefully he updates this thread with the price.
  37. PWlakewood

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    I’m some cases yes but not all. It all depends so many different factors when determining a value including how rare it js and how saturated the market is.

    Tesla Model S Onboard Master Charger Gen 2 (10 kW) Internal Fuse Fix??

    Another option would be to remove the faulty onboard charger and send it to electrified garage or another shop and have them test/repair it.

    Tesla Model S Onboard Master Charger Gen 2 (10 kW) Internal Fuse Fix??

    Did you guys watch the YouTube video for the gen 1 fuse replacement? Since the fuse is on the side of the gen 1 maybe the fuse is in the same place roughly on gen 2.

    Car Unable to Charge

    If your car is still charging on destination chargers it’s not a blown fuse since a destination charger is the same as a home HPWC.

    New FSD beta testers (June 2022) - First experiences

    Biggest issue for me was it not recognizing speed tables/raised crosswalks. Normally you need to slow down for these so I had to do it myself.

    And market value varies by market (state).

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    And you might have sold too low. There are too many variables involved to predict what his may sell for. I hope the OP gets over 50k.

    FS 2014 Model S P90D Ludicrous

    When I listed my 2013 S for 27k with over 150,000 miles I thought it would take weeks to sell and there would be all kinds of low ball offers. I sold it in less than 24 hours all cash for 26k. I had several offers that came in for full asking but I had already committed to sell it. I feel 50k...

    Oregon Mutual I provided the original monroney sticker ($142,000 new) showing all options and receipts for Mcu upgrade. I countered all the comparables that were not similiar. They wanted to use non performance 85d model s with less options. I always advise people to reject first and second...
