Since you mentioned the pedestrian alert I'll mention that I currently have an extension ladder on top of the car. I use one for work occasionally but have not heard this sound before. I suspect the last time I had the ladder on may have been before the last update. I will also note that it only...

I do have occasional passengers, but no family or kids. The audio is a bit louder than I hear it in the car. I had my microphone for my phone in the front compartment when I was recording. The only things in there are some cords, a jump drive, charging adapter, and dust cloth.

I’m on version 2019.24.4 73fb1ab. Seems like it is coming from inside the car, I’ve only heard it while I was in it. It comes and goes, and I couldn’t figure out a way to make it start or stop (opening compartments, accelerating or braking, park or drive).

Has anybody's car made this beeping noise? I've heard it when driving and stopped. Sounds like it is coming from the front of the car somewhere.

Yeah, the Tesla planner seems to route for the fewest stops (fewer stops but more charging time since you are charging at the high end of the battery). A better route planner pics the stops for the shortest overall time including charging (more stops but less charging time since you are charging...

Thomas, after Nikola's BFF.

I'll be pissed if I buy FSD and the price doesn't go down afterward. I feel like going online and venting on forums about how I paid more than somebody else is part of the Tesla experience... along with buying a roof rack that I purchased three months ago, which apparently shipped two weeks ago...

Same here, just got a second free trial but the prices on the website are still $3k for AP and $7k for FSD.

Nice. I was just going to ask since I have not received a tracking number.

Maybe this was posted somewhere in the middle... however, somebody asked me about the car's sound pack. I said it had a great sound system. He said "no... the engine sound they have to make so you don't hit pedestrians."

Whoop! Just got my shipping confirmation from Feb 11.

Argh. I ordered Feb. 11 and haven't heard anything yet. :(

I'm waiting to pull the trigger on AP and FSD. I'm not sure if: People who have AP prior to April 22 will get a discount on FSD before May 1 People who have neither AP nor FSD will get a packaged discount before May 1 Both 1 and 2 Neither 1 and 2 (probably the most likely IMO)

I do not have AP or FSD, but am planning to purchase both before the end of the month. I think I may purchase the AP prior to April 22, in case there is some kind of announcement on the 22nd that people who already have AP will get some kind of discount on FSD before the end of the month...

Nothing is ever guaranteed. And like a lot of people have posted, all car manufacturers flex their numbers around. If I do purchase it, I will go into it knowing that the guy behind me may get it for less or for free. Frustrating, but I'll be okay. :)

Agreed. And honestly, I'm really not that concerned about the cost or the value (but kind of). I'd like to support Tesla, I just don't want to get duped as much as I can avoid it. I drive a lot for work (over 8k miles so far in about 3.5 months), so I'd like to have it either way.

I would also be interested in what happens next. I did not purchase AP because I thought it was "neat" but not really worth it, but now I am considering dropping the $10k for FSD ($3k for AP and $7k for FSD). I may do it by the end of the month considering Elon's ominous tweet. :eek:

Has anybody charted the price of the autopilot and FSD over time? o_O I noticed the autopilot when down from $4k to $3k sometime over the past couple of days.

Emailed Tesla again today about this and got this response: Unfortunately due to high demand, we are currently out of stock of the Model 3 Roof Rack and do not have a replenishment ETA at this time. I apologize of the inconvenience this has caused. Please also be advised that we are actively...

My old car had a roof rack which I used to carry bikes and extension ladders for work. Sold my old car when I was told I would have the rack the end of Feb (of course now after reading the forums here, I find that you can't really rely on what they say...) so now getting roof access at projects...

The month and year of manufacturer is on the label inside the driver side door.

Uh yeah... but I want to test drive it first. :p

Uhm... does anybody have one of those FSD that they're not using? You can just unplug it from your car and plug it into mine, right? ;)

I would be careful of covering it with plastic. I think it needs ventilation and you don't want condensation or humidity getting trapped. I charge with this cable outside everyday (rain/snow/sun) without any problems so far. I found a good use of my old oil pan, I set it upside down on the...

How do you track that, is it individually metered?

I guess I coulda just posted the image...

I agree, I wish I had signed up earlier.

After a few back-and-forths, it has been chalked up to a software glitch, and I get my tax credit. I'll just send them a bill for my research. ;)

Good point. Deleivered in December 2018 so I'm expecting the full $7,500 since I have at least that much in tax liability.

That's good to know, that's why I originally went to a tax guy, moved and started renting out my old house.

Caved on New Year's Eve last year, gave up my 3 Series. Couldn't be happer... although I live in an apartment and have a 100' extension cord running through my kitchen, living room, out the window, down the side of the building, and across the grass to get a pitiful charge, but I do it with a...

Thanks. Sometimes I miss things so wanted to get some more input. Anybody know a good tax guy in Indy? :)

It was mostly just an issue with long delays and lack of response. He found an error on a previously submitted tax return so I figured he competent, just slow.

This guy ain't cheap ether.

I ordered my roof rack two months ago and it still hasn't shipped... o_O

Yeah, this guy has been unreliable in the past...

Maybe I should clarify, I bought my Tesla in December 2018.

I figured I'd ask people who might know better before I go off on my tax guy. I'm being told by my tax prep guy that the EV tax credits expired and a vote to extend them has been delayed until August. He said that I cannot submit my tax credit on my return. I cannot find such information and...

Ha. I purchased my car in winter and had never heard the fans kick on while/after supercharging until about a week ago. I thought for sure an airplane was going to fall on top of me until I got out and realized it was coming from my car. It is funny too because it starts slowly so it sounds like...

Any other data junkies out there? I purchased a Model 3 a few months ago and have been happily creating spreadsheets to track my energy usage and other things. Thought I'd share a chart. The chart is plotted over time, and each blue dot represents a time where I reset my trip data and put the...
