    Supercharger - New London, CT

    That's great! It's about 2 miles from the Cross Sound Ferry terminal and fills the gap between Warwick, RI and Milford, CT locations. My next wish is for Riverhead, NY. The east end of Long Island is really underserved.

    M3 SR+ Snow tires how to

    It can be as simple as it was with your prior car. Just swap tires for winter and spring driving on the existing rims. It takes 4-5 years to recover the cost of a wheel and tire package. Michelin, Pirelli and General are excellent options for you. They all have the XL load rating that Tesla...

    Anyone in Boston Area Comment on needing winter tires?

    Winter tires are made with a softer rubber compound than All Seasons. They grip bare pavement better in sub zero weather . So quicker stopping in both wet and dry. I live on the South Shore and always have snow tires, even on AWD cars and SUVs. Big fan of the X-Ice too.

    “Wash-by-handers” in Northeast, what do you do in the Winter?

    There are car washes that do it the old fashioned way with sponges, buckets and towels. I searched with Yelp and found one in Holbrook, MA.

    Hand Wash is still a thing?

    Being a touch OCD I did my paint correction and ceramic coating as a weekend DIY project on my Model 3 and son's RAV4. After all that work I wanted to find the least destructive car wash around. I have met myself, I know that they joy of washing my car in the driveway will get old when it's 30...

    Supercharger - Braintree, MA

    I charged at this new location today. 2 of the 8 spots had ICE cars parked in them. I was a little put out until I saw a man in his 70's get out of his CRV to make his way to Sears. I'd bet he has no idea what a Supercharger is. So I created a note for people that block chargers. Is there...

    Suggestions for the best ceramic coating that I could apply by myself at home?

    I have been spinning myself up over this topic for the last couple weeks. I've talked to installers, watched Youtube videos, looked at professional detailing sites, read reviews and have less clarity now that I know more. I've been quoted from $149.00 to $1,500.00 from local companies. The...

    $2,200 discount on showroom model. Worth it? Anything I should keep an eye out for?

    I got a Showroom Mid Range. It showed up in "Showroom" condition. I had the chance to inspect it before signing docs. Very happy with the purchase.

    AWD or Not?

    I live in Boston and bought an RWD M3. I'll use good snow tires for the few days a year there's actually snow on the road, We have a couple Subaru's and RAV4's in the family fleet. I've observed AWD did not make them better handling than the 2WD versions. I look at AWD as a profit center...

    Rear suspension adjustment with 20" wheels?

    I checked with Tesla service. This advisory didn't apply to my 12/18 build. Thanks for the response.

    Rear suspension adjustment with 20" wheels?

    My plan is to use Tesla's 20" Performance Wheel Package for 8 months of the year and 18" Aero's with winter tires for the rest. I've heard Tesla has different camber links for the 20". How critical is this? Changing suspension parts with tires sounds fussy.
