    Is there a benefit to waiting to configure?

    I was one of the lucky ones to get an invitation to configure today. Here’s my situation: I have a EV on lease until the end of the year. I’m perfectly happy with it as a commuter car. So I’m in no major hurry to buy the M3, but I’d really like to have one. I could wait a few months to see...

    Las Vegas Model 3 Deliveries

    As far as I know, there have been no Las Vegas deliveries yet. (The Las Vegas service center actually opens in a new location tomorrow. Hopefully, that'll help.) I thought I'd start a thread so LV residents can keep each other up to date. So far, my experience has been quite poor. 3/3/16 -...

    Referral program in VA - Owners Beware.

    I have two referrals that ended up in two MS sales last November (Nov-2017). When I inquired about the reward for these referrals today, below is the response I received from Tesla sales. I think Tesla is purposely misleading owners since the referral program does not mention any omissions in...

    Sharing a title?

    Are there problems with sharing a title with a friend, if they're willing to let me use their reservation? Specifically, I'm thinking if the title is made to "Friend or Me", and then I remove friend's name. How does this affect federal tax credit? It says I have to be the original owner; any...

    Suggestion: How Tesla should charge us full FSD to improve consumer confidence: Options Contract

    I am getting my Model 3 next week. I have been enjoying my Model S with AP1, and am intrigued by FSD. But I did not order AP & FSD on the Model 3. Here's why, along with a suggestion to make it so I would have paid something for future software: I prefer to pay for my goods and services at...

    New orders for MS now delivering in June 2018?

    Is it odd that deliveries are now showing as June, which is like 4 months out? I just thought it was curious because I've been peeking at custom built MS's for a couple months, and they've always been about 60 days out to deliver according to the design studio. That seems to be the ballpark...

    Spotted a truckload of Teslas in Central Valley

    Hello and first time post I know by now it does not seem like a big deal but here in Central Cali there are no Tesla Service Centers. You can probably understand my surprise to see a truckload right off the 99 Freeway locked behind a gate. Maybe someone is getting their car(s) delivered to...

    Took delivery today, so worth the wait

    Took delivery today of our Model 3 from Tesla Rocklin and it’s absolutely fantastic. I’ve probably read every review and watched every youtube video but this exceeded my expectations. I know that there are many people waiting for dual motor or the base model but whichever you choose it will...

    Leased car's title

    I leased a Tesla MX on 10/2017, and until today, i still didn't received my title or even a copy of title. So, I want to ask, will I received a tile if the car is leasing? BTW, i leased the car from Ohio. Thanks,

    Model S75 Vs Model S100D

    Is it really worth the extra $20K for the 50 plus mileage range? A base S75 plus upgraded seats roughly is $72K. The same S100D would cost $97,300. Besides economics, mileage, and AWD, what are the advantages/disadvantages in the real world?

    Trying to get a handle on what the trade-in value of this 2018 Model S 100D will be in 3 years to help with my Loan vs Lease decision. Loan has slight 3 year out of pocket advantage (~$1,500) over a 1,5000 mile/yr lease. Ultimately, it really depends on what the trade-in value will be in 3...

    Are Reservations Transferable?

    I reserved my Model 3 at the end of May 2017. My delivery estimator says beginning of 2019. I need to get a car now and was wondering if there’s someone who’s delivery is expected in the next few months and would like to swap for a later date. I’m not sure if Tesla will allow this but thought...

    The "Value X": Order Placed

    So the wife says time for a new SUV. My brother having a MS made me a believer. Tesla was kind enough to provide us with a 2 day loaner and that really helped with the decision process. There's not many options that she was interested in. In the end the only additional item added was paint...
