Click…Done… time to bid a fond farewell to my 2015 slow charging 85d model s. Hello stealth gray plaid for the identical price I paid for the 85d

Tesla offers to transfer lifetime free supercharging to new vehicle
- Thread starter eelton
- Start date
Ask your wife's son to tell Tesla he was not expecting to have FUSC on the car and he would like it transferred to your new car as it was originally intended. Offer to sign paperwork too.
The son never got FUSC because it wasn't a transferable version. It is just gone now.
Easy question Tesla wants to sell more new S X and Y. If they needed to sell more new 3's they would have extended this deal to that too.
Agreed. Could also be because the S, X and Y have higher profit margins to "offset" the costs of the free supercharging. Although an argument could be made it would be better for Tesla if some was trading in a electric hog X (relative) for a more efficient 3, would save Tesla money.

I want to create a thread but not sure where…
Our December 2014 S85 has a service appointment Wednesday because a lot of things are starting to go wrong. Didn’t ever want to spend this much on a car again but my hubs loves the drive of the S and we already have a Y.
No desire for X. We’re thinking of asking at the appointment if they can switch FUSC to a 3 to see if they happen to be desperate enough for a sale.
BUT… if our repairs start adding up when is it time to say goodbye to Ellie, our “first born”
We’d hate to have to do it some other time when we can’t transfer the supercharging.

I don’t think they allow FUSC transfer to a 3, just to a new S,X or a YI want to create a thread but not sure where…

Correct. On paper.
But we plan to ask anyway. Service appointment was bumped to today instead of tomorrow so… we will ask.
A yes would mean a premature goodbye to our beloved S.
A no plus a large repair bill would mean some decisions to make.
You could always get a new S!? The best Tesla ever made

My hubs definitely prefers it. Neither of us wanted to spend S money again especially when we’d be giving up our pano roof and open center console and huge frunk. And roof racks.

Having to give up the opening panoramic roof is a big reason why we still have our 2016 S instead of upgrading.
FYI: you can get a roof rack from Tesla for the Model S . . . and from others as well.

Jumped on it upon learning of the offer on Dec 7th. Never got the email with the offer, just happened to ring sales while sitting in the loaner while my 2018 was in for alignment. Missed the ordering/December delivery window by hours but snagged the last new Black/black 19" from inventory (29miles). Only SC my S and upgrades to 2018 75D were just too numerous to ignore. Double the range along with at least half the SC wait-time, Also enjoying more storage, side pockets, comfy console and door-arm rest, even the rear coat hangers are very welcome! Auto window close on lock, much quieter ride, more torque, etc. Very pleased.

If the worst happens PhillyGal I will buy your roof racks if they fit my 2015 sunroof.

@PhillyGal - not sure they’ll give you free supercharging on a 3 nor let you transfer your FUSC from your first MS. But I’m sure you know that if you buy any new Tesla, you get 10,000 rewards points which you can trade for 6 months of SC or other stuff.
