    Another Out of State Delivery Question - NJ delivery

    I live in the Midwest and today I found the car I wanted at a significant discount in NJ. As you may have guessed the app doesn't like my out-of-state driver's license and won't allow me to register it with that address. I used my local NJ friend's address to get around the issue (for now). My...

    UK MX Number plate

    Can people in the UK share what they went with for nice plates on their X? Not much out there about it, seems it’s mainly 3/Y owners with vinyl stick on plates and not much about S/X. I have ordered some vinyl ones but I’m starting to question my decision.

    I'm in CA and buying our second Tesla. When setting up the registration information, it asks us to upload a picture of the front and back of our DRL.

    I just moved in April 2019 from DC to MD and have owned a Model 3 since August 2018.

It appears that if I...
