    About to buy, longtime sustainable/renewable energy enthusiast.

    I'm buying a Tesla 3 SR+ (made in 2020, but that has little bearing on the specs), driving about 8 hours round trip to pick it up Feb 2nd. A few years ago I bought a 2015 Leaf from the Montreal, QC area, that took about 18 hours round trip travel due to the limited range. Last year I gave up on...

    Long time fan, first time listener ;)

    Hey all, been watching the fun for awhile. My 2014 Audi Q5 TDI really makes sense to sell right now with used car prices so high. It was fun while it lasted but I was always going to buy a Tesla eventually. It feels like a perfect storm right now :) Pretty close to pulling the trigger on a MYP...

    Greetings from Hong Kong!

    First time Tesla owner, 2017 MS 75D FSD, what we've discovered so far: 1. We can't record videos in sentry mode, awaiting MCU2/AP3 upgrade option to become available. 2. Cards and flat things will fly into the below screen abyss, but removing the cubby provides an easy solution. 3...

    My Model X (delivered January 2017) was involved in a low speed head-on collision in early December. It's about to come back from the Tesla approved repair shop (in early March). There was about $A60,000 in repair cost. With such a major repair I'm concerned to make sure the work has been...

    Nissan Leaf Owner from Texas

    We ordered the original 2011 Nissan Leaf. Kept it until the lease ran out and then leased another one. That lease runs out this year. I'm hoping the Tesla shows up before the Leaf has to go back in November. If so, I might let wifey drive it for a few months to see if she likes it before...

    Texan for Tesla

    Hello: Been lurking for a while and figured time to step out from the shadow. I have been interested in electric cars since the eighties but the trouble was always the range. I toyed with the idea of an EV1 as a run about car when I lived in Palmdale CA. I just couldn't get over the idea of...
