    Anyone know how to remove lug nut covers?

    Pull strongly from the outer edge with solid force. If they don't pop off that way, slightly push the outer edge back down, not all the way, then pull it again and it'll come off.

    Hold Steering Wheel every 20-25 seconds?

    Well those are the people my comment were directed at. Including the person who started this thread.

    Hold Steering Wheel every 20-25 seconds?

    I had no idea so many people were driving without their hands on the wheel. I'm sure this will flood me with dislikes, but I'm glad they implemented the decreased intervals. Autopilot isn't a hands-off system.

    Anyone buy a Squaretrade warranty for the blackvue?

    One thing to consider Viper there are some credit cards that give you additional warranties for free.

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    There definitely seems to be something different with the update recognizing your hands on the wheel. My wife had the car today and she gets constant warnings and even locked out alot. :oops: But today she asked me if Tesla stopped the AP hand warnings because she didn't get any. :eek:

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    I think it is recognizing hands on the wheel much easier. I didn't get a single nag which is unusual. :p It is also handling curves much much better with the slowing down.

    Samsung Gear S and Tesla???

    Dashboard for Tesla supports Android Wear. The Samsung watches are alot more limited since they run Tizen. The number of watches is probably lower as well. If you really want this, switch your watch. :p

    I have two car seats and both behave this way since day 1.

    Hypermiling record of 606 miles! Also, may be a bad idea...

    I'm actually surprised it wasn't much higher. Only 46 miles higher than the P100D record? Must have something to do with that high percentage of the battery which wasn't used.

    Model 3P-D 0-60 prediction?

    I understand the bragging rights part. I was more responding to your statement about being passed by a BMW. The 3.1/3.2 times are only capable with launch mode which like I said most traffic light races are done by simply mashing the accelerator. In which case a turbo charged car will be at a...

    Model 3P-D 0-60 prediction?

    The advertised 0 to 60 for the BMW is 3.2. The 2.8 is only possible under ideal conditions with the engine at proper operating temperature. Even then it is not easy to replicate, they start spinning the rear wheels and then engine the front and launch. Normal launch modes aren't practical on the...

    Does your service center use seat covers?

    I don't know if they use covers but they always clean and vacuum the inside.

    21" Arachnids coming soon

    You went from 19" wheels to 21". The weight savings are comparing 21" versus 21".

    Performance Model 3 is too cheap - about to drop some truth bombs.

    People that don't value performance don't understand the costs associated with it. I would agree the 3-PD cost is low if the real world acceleration times clock it closer to 3s which we would expect from Tesla's history.
