2018 Model 3!

Just installed a trailer hitch on my 2018 M3 AWD along with a Thule Camber two-bike rack. Needed to buy a crossbar for my step-through. Looking forward to being able to take my bike out on adventures. 🙃

Not to worry. You've got at-home charging and the Tesla Supercharger network. 🙃

Six weeks shy of five years (37,500 miles) and I feel exactly the same as the OP. WooHoo!

Think about a 50 amp line if you can. It will bring the charging rate up to about 29 mph.

Without the left stalk, how is the windshield wash activated? Also, what about cruise control with no right hand stalk?

Just to weigh in with one more data point: My 2018 Dual Motor has always said 80%.

Got my Maxpider floor mats from them on line. They're terrific. Have had them for 4½ years.

Agree. My interior tag has worked fine since 2028.

Haven't heard of a herd of Tesla wanna-bees insisting on "NO-stalk or I won't buy." 🙃

Been grey for a while now. Boo.

No brainer. Long Range with 19K is a sweet deal if everything checks out. 🙃

Check out Abstract Ocean for good add-ons.

I don't know enough about the preconditioning or turning off the charging. But, I do know that keeping your Tesla at 90% or often charging to 100% is not a good idea, especially since you're only using 10% to get to work. The conventional wisdom is charge to 80%. Just say'in.

Yup. Your first good lesson is asking that question. Keep reading about how to manage range and pay attention to your own experience. Then, in time, you'll become a pro and teach others. It's not very hard.

Like to see some photos of the 1Up rack on a Model 3 with a bike loaded.

DISAPPOINTING! :(

When curious about air pressure, simply press the right hand roller and say "Show tire pressure." Presto, the screen shows all four tire pressures. Need air, add. Repeat as necessary. 🙃

DITTO. Installing now.

Just like mine ... HaHa 🙃

All I do is press the right scroll button and say, "Tire pressure." Presto.

Very well written. The comparison doesn't feel quite right but now I'm interested in an electric version of the Citroen DS. HELLO France. Are you listening.

Hum. I bought a CHAdeMO charger a few years ago in anticipation of traveling to Nova Scotia. (Haven't gone yet.) I keep it in the trunk well...just in case. I did try it out once at an EVgo facility. While it was somewhat cumbersome, it did make the handshake and charged successfully. That's all...

There's stupid and there's DUMB.

In the trunk? Your don't seem to understand. Thanks anyway.

I'm looking for something larger than the back-of-seat trash holder. I need to store the tray I connect to my steering wheel when having coffee and a sandwich or reading the news on my iPad. It's 11" x 16.5" x .79". See link...

My car is a late 2018 build M3 AWD LR. I've had zero problems with the exception of needing to replace the 12V battery.

Thanks Meloccom. I drive a late 2018 M3 so there potentially could be an issue with a CCS1 adapter. I'm aware of the S. Korean adapter but have chosen not to get one as I also have a Chademo adapter. Waiting for Tesla's solution and roll out of a comparable CCS adapter. Suspect it will come...

Lucky you. Sure wish the CCS standard was available in the U.S. Tesla is in the process of opening its Super Chargers up to non-Tesla cars, a good thing. Unfortunately, there's no CCS converter available in the States for Teslas, yet. ;)

All of the above advice is good. I've had my M3 AWD LR for 3½ years. No problems. Hope you get your car sooner rather than later.

My property tax in CT for my 2018 M3 AWD Dual Motor is $1,122.46.

Don't even consider the performance. Just order the AWD LR. Next question?

I have a Bandit front plate bracket. It's awesome. Don't know if they are still available. Got mine in 2018. Maybe do a Google search. Good luck.

Boo on Tesla service!

Have an appointment next week at 25K for break system check at Tesla Service. Fortunately, it's convenient. Having tires rotated and HEPA filter changed as well. Don't know if mobile service can accomplish that. Brake fluid check and brake check are among the few maintenance chores recommended...

a left wang framus

You must have gotten the CCS1 from Korea. Yes?

As mentioned in an earlier post, I got the CHAdeMO adapter from Tesla in 2019 for my 2018 M3 AWD LR. Planning a drive to Nova Scotia this summer from N.E. and CHAdeMO is available in many places allowing me not to worry about Superchargers. Don't think there's one south/west of Halifax toward...

I have had a CHAdeMO adapter since 2019. I keep it in the boot along with a spare NEMA 1450 cable & plug. I've used it on occasion but favor the Tesla Superchargers. It's an expensive backup, about $450, but worth it if you need a DC Fast charge when you're out of range of a Supercharger. The...

I've had my M3 AWD Dual Motor since December 2018. No complaints...at all.

Yes, please sign. Go to: Sign the Petition

Nope. Sounds bogus.

Me? Well, I really like driving my 2018 AWD Dual Motor. I hardly let my wife drive Lady Sprite Blue let alone having FSD take over the wheel. Count me OUT!

What a BAD idea.

Don't I wish my 2018 Tesla had two-way charging.

Dryer plugs seem to be the equivalent of NEMA 14-50. My electrician (twice) installed the same plug for my garage as the dryer in the house. I'm neither an electrician nor a code monitor. All I can say is, "Works great."

What a bad % # & * ! @ + idea. Stupid. Boo. 🤬 I have a NEMA 1450 in my garage and use the cable and plug that came with my 2028 Dual Motor. 90% of my charging is at home. I have another cable and plug kit in the well of the boot which I use when visiting my son. There, I slip open the laundry...

Lov'in it. This old guy hasn't been able to read most of the words for the last six months...since change #????? 🙃
