    Tesla Solar Skirt Alternative?

    I got my Tesla solar panel system (12 panels) installed in my home about 1 month ago. Cost was the biggest factor for me choosing Tesla, but even if Tesla was a little more expensive than some other companies, I still would have gone with Tesla because I already have a Tesla vehicle and Wall...

    Model 3 paint wearing off

    Wow, that's one of the worst paint issues I've seen on here. What year is your Model 3 and how many miles/km do you have on it? I know winters up north can be pretty brutal on cars, but most cars can handle the sand/salt/winter. Just not Teslas unfortunately it seems. --Cintoman

    Charge Port Latch Not Engaged - Be Advised Low temps cause reduced Charge Rate 16/40A

    Adding a data point here. I have a 2018 Model 3 LR AWD and because my battery was dangerously low (2%), I decided to charge it at home tonight with my Tesla Wall Connector, versus where I normally charge for free (ChargePoint station a few miles away). Plugged it in fine, but after the blinking...

    Model 3 DIY Light kits: Review and installation tips, with pics

    After reading this entire thread in one sitting, I'm surprised that no one made mention of using a laser wire instead of these much thicker wires that, when installing on the underside of the larger air vent, it can be difficult to mount it nice and straight. What I ended up using is a laser...

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    Funny, I'll actually be driving by there very late tonight (around 11pm) to drop my daughter off at URI tonight. Hoping to get back home before the snow arrives later tonight...so I can hide my car in the garage. But that sounds like a plan and would love to meet up...probably better during...

    Software update 2020.48.26.x update, font size problems

    Model 3 owner here. Yes, even though I'm aware of how much I'm pressing down on the accelerator pedal, I still very much liked to see how much power (black) or regen (green) was being used. While I thought the pre-update energy bar was a bit thin'ish, with this new update, like most have...

    How noticeable is the acceleration boost from a dual motor long range to a performance Model 3?

    Unless you were among the first ones to get a Model Y and you removed the front Tesla "T" badge on the hood, only to realize that there is now a hole in the hood :) --Cintoman
