    Model 3: Hitch Installation

    We installed the Eco hitch on a Model 3 in less than 4 hours in our garage. Just need a Jack pad and one hydraulic jack that gets low enough. Watch at least two of the YouTube videos, and then have fun!

    Height of Model 3 with roof bars?

    The rear/higher bar adds 2 and 5/8 inches to the height of the car. That's about 58 or 58 1/2" total, but difficult to measure with the slight curve of the bar to peak in middle. Best to add 2 5/8" to vehicle spec height.

    Dual Motor v RWD in PNW

    AWD model with stock all season tires was incredible this past winter. We live in a quarter mile private driveway. Never shoveled or plowed, just punched it out of the garage and broke trail every morning. Never slipped even when scrapping the deep snow on the bottom. Also took out skiing...

    Roof racks - what is the holdup?

    Racks arrived today, two days after notification and never a tracking number. Mounted up really easily. The welds on the hook bolts are much improved with no gaps. Threads are also longer, and plastic end caps more sturdy. Worth the wait for gen 2 design.

    WA resident Bought Car from Oregon store. No plate yet.

    The Portland store fedexed the plates to me in Oregon. They waited until nearly the day the temp plates expired, 3 months later, but they were very busy with deliveries in late 2018. YRMV with WA plates and less backlog.
