    was expecting no tint

    I ad a video that went around the car and you can see the front glass and the back on the lower part are really clear. and the sides are darker then them.

    was expecting no tint

    I tried to park next to a car that I could show the differences but all were very darkly tinted. you can see that there is a difference. I wasn't trying to say it was dark tint. but its definitely not like as glass clear. It might be spray uv stuff, I wasn't trying to say it was paid for...

    was expecting no tint

    Well it seemed darker then what we were expecting. We parked it next to a car that was of similar color. A dodge challenger and the side glass looked darker on the model 3, We then compared with our Honda Civic, but the Honda was way darker. I will upload a picture tomorrow. Not sure if it’s...

    was expecting no tint

    I was expecting no tint to be on the sides, but it came with tint, not as dark as what my civic came with but there is some on the sides... guess that saves me some money now..

    Insurance confusion

    I was told by my insurance that they can’t insure the car for me until it was in my position. They set up the plan and once I get am there will call they will execute the plan that’s already setup. I guess the don’t want to cover It until I can verify no damage exists. At anyraate the moment...

    Question about pick up.

    interesting. I Didn’t know that. It’s the first I’ve ordered like this. Usually drive the new cars before deciding.. well that’ll be a new experience.

    Somehow changed to old stealth order?

    I plan to the minute mine , is mine. Does it feel any better, or nominally?

    Question about pick up.

    That wouldn’t help, It’s not that I want to see how a model 3 car drives. It’s a how does that specific one that I am about to buy drive. like I said I doubt it will have issues. But you would think, that would be one of the approval steps. But no big deal. Not a deal breaker.

    Question about pick up.

    So I have my scheduled delivery of the 22nd. And was curious about something. Is it’s just a walk through before accepting it or do you get to test drive it first to make sure it drives fine before accepting. I know it’ll be brand new but to me some smaller paint imperfections is less a reason...

    Anybody care to estimate cost to replace battery out of warranty?

    from what I've read its the opposite. and the modular packs for the model 3 were made so you can swap them in and out.. Elon Musk makes incredible claims about Tesla Model 3 longevity, will offer battery module replacement - Electrek

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    was looking into possibly upgrading to the stealth, but I wasn't interested in paying the same price as the full performance and not getting all that was paid for. that and my time would reset 5-7 weeks, so I passed and am staying with the long range...

    Tesla Model 3 charging really slow at home?

    from what I have read in reviews, since no experience with jag ipac, i've read that you don't get anywhere near 290 that was claimed. so maybe that could be the case. ive seen numbers in the news where its more like 250. if your going based on percentages it would seem the jag is getting filled...

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    do you usually get a email from the customer facing side (not the order specialist that's been emailing me since the 10th) soon before getting a vin? I just got a email reaching out. still no vin in my account so was wondering if that would indicate its soon?

    Will come a LR RWD comeback?

    actually a year ago that one was the one i wanted. further range cheaper price and still have premium interior. i live in warm area, so awd really wont do much for me.. hate cold so doubt i'd visit a cold state willingly. if they did have it now i would switch. i just don't believe they will...

    Will come a LR RWD comeback?

    how are you sure he is an employee? if he is how far up the chain is he?? i have a tiny bit of doubt he is. if he is great, but i also know public corporate companies, tend to look at what makes them the most money most of the time, and change their minds as fast as you can drop a quarter to the...

    Model 3 OEM Tires Bald at 19,000

    I get pretty close to 40k on all my tires I’ve had so far. Will be interesting to see how the model 3’s hold up. If it’s less than 30k I’ll get a diff brand definitely.

    Orbital Aero covers kickstarter

    If they ever bring it to reality and sale via a online store or amazon, would consider buying, though not sure I’d pay $244 for plastic hub caps. But I don’t like Kickstarter much. Have watched a few things over the years that never came about

    Reason why no Apple Carplay

    apple does not charge the automobile manufacture to integrate car play. they give it free. when I started gathering info about the model 3, I thought I would miss carplay the most, but as Tesla add more features to support the iphone it seems now its less needed. in the near future. I never...

    Stealth Performance Now Available!

    I seriously doubt the top speed will be 145 and no track mode, because if it is. your basically paying 8 grand more then the awd long range to take the 0-60 from 4.4 to 3.2 that would really be the only difference.. or a awd with 2k boost. So it would be 6k to go from 3.5 to 3.2 0-60. Would...

    Stealth Performance Now Available!

    I don't think that is the case I was thinking the same thing about the top speed. but when you click it you see a new drop down that lists only brakes spoiler and pedals. so those are the things a person would be paying for and not getting. also the smaller tires are cheaper as well... i think...

    Tesla makes electricians see $$

    got mine done today for $250. the nema 14-50 plug was literally a foot from my panel. I got quotes anywhere from 1,000 to 800. its sad once they hear tesla they feel they have a license to exploit. human nature I guess. I know the cost of the material is $40. I just wanted a electric company to...

    Gen 3 Wall Connector

    I was planning to get the Tesla gen 3, but I ultimately decided I wanted one with a Name 14-50 plug. Wanted to allow the option of portability if I ever need that. Highly unlikely I’ll ever need it, but you never know. Might loose a few miles per hour but 36-38 a hour isn’t to bad. but ended up...

    Can I/Should I Buy LR AWD

    I was initially going to buy a model 3 a year ago. I was going to get the longe range rwd , then one day they took that away from me. I didnt buy then because my son decided he didn’t want to drive his first year of college. More likely he didn’t want to get a small part time job for insurance...
