Interestingly Tesla started advertising on cnn.com, which has been quite critical of Musk. It looks like the amount of advertising is increasing.

Very interesting review from Top Gear This includes Hans and Lars.

Also wanted to follow up on this thread. The contractor who removes old roof and installs Tesla underlayment is instructed to remove boards with rot and also boards that have vent holes - Tesla employees who install solar roof make their own holes and install their own passive vents. Thus if...

Hello everyone, I wanted to respond to my own thread. Tesla got back to me and indicated that the don't have their own active solar power vents. They have indicated that would be happy to install "Remington Solar 20-Watt Solar Attic Fan (BDB) with Thermostat /Humidistat (20 x 20 x 8.75 IN)"...

Hello Everyone, my quest in installing Solar Roof continues. As I mentioned in a different thread I have re-arranged the elements of my roof such as - I have removed several vents and combined plumbing exhaust pipes. That allowed to greatly increase the amount of solar my roof will be able to...

I had a few drives today in Austin, where there are currently a lot of fallen icy trees on the road or trees with very low hanging branches under the weight of ice. I must say the car did very well detecting such obstacles and driving around them. When fallen trees completely obscured a road...

Hello everyone, For my house I'm considering changing an HVAC system and as a result thinking about insulating attic by foam, which is a modern suggested way of attic insulation in Texas. You can see an example of open cell at at around 4 min on this video I have solar roof on order, it is...

Jboy210, thank you so much for your info. It is extremely helpful. I have found out that Tesla is extremely supportive and forthcoming in terms of maximizing solar generation. They allowed me to work with a roofer to re-arrange the layout of the roof elements (vents, plumbing exhausts) to...

Hello everyone, does anyone know the size of a tesla solar shingle when it is installed on the roof, i.e., overlapped with other shingles? The dimensions that are listed in the installation plan are 430 mm height and 1140 mm width, but I assume that when installed the shingle is overlapped...

I think I failed to conveyed the amount of excitement that there is in UAE for Tesla by people living in the country at various level. I have not seen a discussion on it on this thread. It is hard to estimate it from the wait time on the official website.

I have recently learned that in United Arabic Emirates the wait time for a new Tesla (Model 3/Y) is approximately a year and that the cars are exported from China. They have a very large backlog in UAE and Tesla's are extremely popular there.

We also cared with our car would have Alcantara fit and finish and it was super major discussion point after Tesla stealthily switch to a different fabric that was initially perceived as not super premium :)

Currently the status of the charger in the interactive onboard map is "temporarily out of service". Does anyone know what is happening with this charger and if/when it is going to be back online?

I want to bring this thread to conclusion and to indicate that $1000 was achieved today in 2020, where the majority of those who voted have indicated. Congratulations to all!

I had it on 12.1.1 after updating to 12.1.2 everything is normal and working smoothly.

Elon was laughing at the end. That was interesting :)

I want to say even more. The NoA saved me from an accident. I was driving on a highway on NoA and the car was passing an old lady driving a car in the center lane. I was in the left most lane against a concrete barrier on the left. The lady unexpectedly swerved in my lane and my car moved very...

My experience with 2019.8.5 is very smooth. I have not detected any problems in several hours I've driven it. It did NOT perform dangerously at any time.

What software do you use to track how much data the car has pulled?

That proves again what a remarkable achievement they have in ability to land first stages in general. Man many things can go wrong each time.

Same thing here I'm very happy how NoA works and up to this date I drove a couple of thousand miles on it.

I want to state that my delivery experience at the end of Quarter 3 was flawless. DS always responded within a few hours. My delivery date was moved to be sooner than what was originally promised. At delivery I was given ample amount of time to inspect the car. My delivery center was Austin. So...

Guys I'm a big fan of Tesla. I found the following bear article about Q3 financial results Analyst Erupts At Tesla: "They Used Every Trick From Every Fraud To Put Lipstick On Q3 Results" I would like to refute in detail the points that are made in this article. Can you post links with a...

great review, thank you

Took delivery of my Model 3 in Austin yesterday. VIN 102XXX No issues whatsoever with the car. I was given as much time as I wanted with the car to inspect it before I signed the delivery papers. Quality of built and finish is light years ahead of my 2013 Model S. In general the build quality is...

fnce_prof I'm really sorry to hear about your experience. From my experience I used Cleveland service center before and they went over and beyond in the quality of their service and willingness to help me in Michigan. I even was given a personal cell phone number by a service manager in that...

Poll results confirm what actually happened Tesla confirms hitting federal tax credit threshold, $7,500 credit cut in half at end of 2018

With this information in hand https://insideevs.com/monthly-plug-in-sales-scorecard/ how many cars are left to be delivered in US in June before 200K threshold is passed?

Elon just sent a twit that update started rolling yesterday to fix repeated breaking.

I think this is positive news China slashes tariffs on imported cars Would Tesla be included in tariff reduction?

are there any new updated in therms of how AP2 feels vs AP1? My own Model S does not have any AP hardware. I have a service loaner now with 2018.18 firmware and its AP1 is much much better then a AP1 loaner I had a couple of years ago. There was really a lot of progress even on AP1 improvement...

Do you think you can fit one rear facing infant car seat and two booster car seats in the back of the model 3. I'm considering getting a Model 3, but I wanted to make sure that such configuration is possible. Thanks for insight.

I think this is the road where Tesla's autopilot would engage. How would it act in this situation, lets say if the driver was not paying attention to the road? We did not have cases like this one that just happened with Uber happen with Tesla

great, thank you for sharing

I had service several times in Austin, TX and mobile service in Michigan (coordinated from Cleveland). Both were of outstanding quality. People at both locations were pleasant and cared about their work and customer satisfaction.

yes

What do you think?

What about any NDA, did you have to sign any paper work not to discuss some aspects for the car?

I was trying to use a Blink Charger today in a public garage. Connected everything properly and checked the connection multiple times. The car is stuck with the blue colored ring around the charge port - the car does not actually start to charge. The Blink charger shows ready to charge and shows...

I went to a Tesla recruiting event at a major University. There were several engineers that work on various projects at TSLA. One engineer who is connected to the production line of Model 3 has indicated that the ramp of Model 3 is currently happening very rapidly. Another person on the...

Does standard interior have textile seats and "premium" has black leather-like seats, is that correct?

Thanks for the story and enjoy your car!

Is there a scenario where the election of Trump is more beneficial to Tesla then the election of Clinton? Possible options: Trump does not change current tax credits for EV or Solar Reduced taxes benefit Tesla as a company Outraged voters buy EVs to support clean energy message despite Trump...

glad to hear you are safe and getting out in Tesla was not a problem

If you look at the news sites you see lines of people in front of gas stations filling up and leaving the coast. What happens if Model S/X are the only cars you have to evacuate in? Do superchargers get suddenly huge lines as well? Or actually it is a less painful experience than having a ICE...

I'm curious why interest rates are going up? Tesla is expected to have a blowout quarter which means the share price should go up after the announcement how many cars they have delivered. Assuming that people should not want to short more. May be people are getting shares back to vote for...

I wanted to say that I only had positive experiences with Austin Service center. When I bought my CPO Model S there was a small crack in the paint on the car and they fixed it with no problems and to my complete satisfaction.

Thinking about it I think it is a good thing, because Tesla will have control of more components from scratch so they can provide tighter integration and more superior final solution. They hired a person who worked in AMD on processor manufacturing and it means that they started panning to bring...
