    Will the free FSD trial convince you to purchase FSD?

    Agree, and since Tesla is the greatest benefactor of all this extra data, maybe we can hold out hope there would be future "trial" months. 🙏

    Will the free FSD trial convince you to purchase FSD?

    I agree, I'd probably do subscriptions for say summer months when road trips are more likely. Not sure I'd use FSD much between November and March in most Canadian cities...

    Will the free FSD trial convince you to purchase FSD?

    Just curious since it seems so many of us got the free 30-day FSD trial.

    Wipers always scraping?

    Nope, other than a rock chip repair, glass is exactly the same as the day I bought it. I've driven in the rain (and snow) quite a few times now.

    Wipers always scraping?

    A different wiper issue than the usual... Ever since I got my new (Dec 2022) MX, I've noticed the windshield wipers are very "scrapy" -- rubbing erratically against the windshield instead of smoothly. The only time it's ever smooth is in torrential downpours. A light rain does not overcome the...

    Canadian X Refresh Orders

    Thank you! Was always jealous of blue Teslas after my White MY. Vowed to make it blue this time and it's a huge hit everywhere I go!

    Canadian X Refresh Orders

    Took delivery in Richmond BC on Dec 20 at the start of the great snowstorm. I had driven 7 hours (i.e. at low speeds) from Kelowna the day before. Tesla wanted to cancel on the 20th saying they were closed, but when I called back and explained that I had to be back in Kelowna, they were very...

    Not charging in cold?

    I haven't had my Tesla connector installed yet so I'm just trickle charging at the new house that I'm at. Unfortunately I seem to be gaining "0 km/hr". Is this due to the cold (currently -15 Celsius) or is there another reason? Yesterday at the house it seemed fine.

    Four tires and a car seat?

    I'll be picking up a 2022 Model X with six seats. I have to do it with my 4-year-old daughter, which means car seat in one of the two captain's chair seats. But I also have to get winter tires for the drive home and have the summer tires in the car. Would I be able to fold the third row down...

    Any Canadian tax attorneys in this thread? I imagine at this point we will have to get one involved.

    Sent a letter to CRA, they haven't answered yet. Would encourage everyone reading this thread to also send a letter to CRA!

    Canadian X Refresh Orders

    Sigh. My EDD just got pushed back again. Last week it was showing January 10-April 6, now showing Feb 10-May 5. (6-seater, no FSD) This after it was originally late 2022 when I ordered in Dec 2021.

    damaged roof - can this wait 6 weeks?

    The following damage occurred recently. Where I am located (Kelowna, BC Canada) there is no Tesla shop and only one approved Tesla glass/collision centre in town. They say it will take 4-6 weeks to get a new glass roof from Tesla. My alternative is to drive 5 hours each way to Vancouver to get...

    What company is this charger?

    Does not appear on that map either! But here's the pic.

    What company is this charger?

    Thanks for the reply, but according to Blink's website they don't operate any chargers here. Any other guesses?

    What company is this charger?

    I'm staying at my dad's apartment in Vancouver BC. There's a charging station with a J1772 but no identifying company information on it, just an icon that indicates that you're supposed to swipe a card. It's all black and there's no other display of any kind, just LEDs that says "Ready" and...

    getting a model x plaid just because I don't want to wait!

    True -- by next spring I'll probably get a subscription to EV-CPO and try to snatch the first one available in the config I want.

    getting a model x plaid just because I don't want to wait!

    I feel kind of insane that i just put a deposit down for a Model X plaid instead of a regular Model X just because I want it in 2022 instead of having to wait until 2023. I think it's especially insane because the Plaid will be classified as a supercar in British Columbia with all the insurance...

    2 newborns, one 4yo

    Oh interesting. The Vegas to LA drive is tremendously boring, but not very windy, so it definitely shouldn't lead to carsickness. Sorry you had that experience. :( Maybe time to reconsider the 5-seater after all.

    2 newborns, one 4yo

    Oh, interesting perspective, and different from my parents it seems. But yes I am a little worried that the older kid will be unhappy with the third row. She mostly gets frustrated with not being able to see things -- how is the view out of the third row for a small kid?
  27. D

    2 newborns, one 4yo

    Thanks for the perspective on rear-facing. We're both 5'7" so seats forward will be no big deal. More thinking of the logistics of getting the 4yo into the back row seat and all buckled in.

    2 newborns, one 4yo

    From what I've gathered from others, the best config for a family X is the 6-seater so you can walk down the empty middle. If you had two newborns (yes, twins are in my future) and one 4yo, would you put the twins in the second row and the toddler in the third row, or vice versa?

    Tesla tent in Canada

    Sorry, I should have been more specific -- looking for the kind of tent that attached to the car itself. Like the picture below.

    Tesla tent in Canada

    Model Y here. Anyone have a tent they like for their Tesla that they were able to buy in Canada? We're a family of 3 so sleeping in the car itself probably not going to work out great. Everything at the local Canadian Tire is sold out/not available.

    New Driver - Student Driver

    One thing to remember is that younger brains are more elastic brains, actually far less likely to make one-pedal mistakes than us old folks. Imagine you trying to pick up one of your teenager's video games, and think about how harder it is for you to learn that game than your teenager, even when...

    Recent Model Y deliveries

    Picked up a new MY in Vancouver (on Great Northern Way) with VIN 140xxx on March 10. No quality issues at all other than that the trunk close button didn't work. Tesla mobile came out and fixed it for me about 2 weeks later (I live in the Okanagan). Delivery experience was good but very busy. I...

    Golden<->Radium round trip range anxiety

    I'm a new owner still of a MY LR, but noticed that especially in cold temps the range obviously isn't exactly as advertised. I'm planning on a family trip to Radium. There is a destination charger in Invermere, but I'm not sure if I want to stay at the resort where it's located (would probably...

    Speed Sign Recognition in BC

    Only been an owner for about a week, but a bit frustrated with the sign recognition. On the highway in to town there's a curve where we're told to slow to 50 km/h. But there's no subsequent sign that raises the speed limit back up to 100 km/h, which it is for the entire highway. So autopilot is...

    south okanagan (BC) camping in a Model Y

    Hello, brand new MY owner checking in with my first post-ownership post! Super thrilled to finally join the club. My significant other is super excited about the camping feature after I showed her on Youtube. In fact, she pretty much wants to do it right away, if only for a night. We are...

    Delivery checklist

    Hi, Does anyone have a good exhaustive checklist of the issues I should be looking out for when I pick up my (first) MY next week? I will be driving a long distance and really hoping that I get lucky with build quality. Apologies as I'm sure this has been asked before -- I tried to use the...

    Who needs a pedestal?

    Hi, about-to-be first time Tesla (MY) owner here. I have purchased a wall connector and will be having an electrician come install it, but I am not clear on whether I need a pedestal. The MY will be parked outside, not in a garage, on my property. It will be uncovered. I have a wall outlet on...

    Model Y should be $6500 cheaper in Canada

    Is it worth holding off on an MY purchase in hopes of a price drop? Was probably going to order in the next week unless there's a good reason to wait.

    MY with new console spotted today

    I hope I don't sound too silly here, but I've read a few threads in the forum about people super excited about the new console. Why is it such a big deal? Why is it so much better than the old one?

    MY Performance in snow

    Yeah, I'm big on getting very good snow tires even on my current vehicle (BMW X3). Just wondering if the lower clearance is significant at all.
