Hello everyone,
I placed an order for a Model 3 about a month ago and I'm very excited for it to arrive soon. The estimated delivery window has changed many times but I did get my VIN today.
I just read an article online today where a Model 3 owner made reference to having solar panels on his M3. Does anyone know if these come standard or is it an aftermarket item that the owner had installed? I don't see any mention of solar panels being part of the M3 on Tesla's website. I am interested in knowing more about them and potentially having them on my M3. It would be nice to be able to charge the battery anytime I am parked outdoors on a sunny day.
Also, I called my auto insurer, Geico, who I've been with for many years and they quoted me $168 a month for insurance on my new M3. That is with a $1000 deductible on Comp and collision, and no rental car or towing coverage. I have a credit score over 800 and a spotless driving record. The $168 seems really high to me.
I'm just curious if anyone can recommend another company that may have better rates. I plan to call around to get some quotes but thought I'd ask Tesla owners their opinion first.
Thanks in advance. I'm happy to be here among many other Tesla and EV enthusiasts.
