    First significant problem with LR AWD after 2 years and 28k miles

    I’ve always parked my cars in our garage and still had mice building a nest around the air filter of our Prius. It was during winter and apparently they love the warmth of that area. The odor from their bathroom needs also had to be removed!

    Funny story for ya'll....

    Memories of the times when only the owner knew the secret combination of manual choke and # of gas pedal pumps to get the car started! Yup, they don’t make’em like they used to!

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    Thanks much. Looking at websites I’m surprised that they don’t post their wheels’ material. I’m assuming that means that they are cast. Do u recommend any sites or chains for searching for forged wheels?

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    I’d like to get some WHITE rims to replace my OEMs (235/45 R18 aeros with -40 offset) as my regular rims. I Would then use my OEMs as my winter rims. I know very little about rims. By getting white rims for my regular tire do I open myself to any concerns like getting scratched easier? As...

    How long does a Powerwall support a home during a power outage?

    Thanks. The reason I bought my TM3 was to reduce my carbon footprint, the rest is icing on the cake. But I was wondering how much drop in electricity generation we should expect from April-Sept vs. October-March. I’m interested in finding a good company to work with, in case you can recommend...

    Model 3 Long Range increased $500

    The power boost is definitely not in 32.12.2 because over 80% of all Model 3s have been on that release for at least a couple weeks by now.

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    When you buy new wheels, other than searching for 18” ones, what other specs should I search for to make sure that will fit my TM3? Do I need to first pick my tires and then search for wheels?

    How long does a Powerwall support a home during a power outage?

    We live in Michigan so we rarely see the sun during the winter. And we installed a gas-powered automatic whole house backup generator as backup to our electric utility. Am I correct in assuming that because of our cloudy winters, it would not be possible to justify a solar system? We pay 10-12...

    Solid AP Improvements on v10 - Initial Impressions

    Couple negatives changes: I'm getting more AP steering nags than I used to and along with that when coming up a small hill where the car cannot see what's beyond, I now get a sudden red warning telling me to take control of steering when 1) I already have my hand on steering and 2) it didn't...

    I'm speechless, how can Tesla do this?

    Same things happened to me for the first time ever two weeks ago when my Amazon order for a 128GB Samsung SD card arrived. The envelope was completely empty. My cynical side says that someone making minimum wage put the card in his/her pocket and sold it on eBay or Craigslist. If I’m right...

    Tell her the same authoritative source has shown that talking on cellphones and being in front of TV are bigger causes of cancer!

    Model 3 with battery popping sound while charging, should I be worried?

    I heard the same metal popping noise yesterday while supercharging only for the 2nd time since I bought my TM3 a month ago. Has anyone heard an update from Tesla?
