If I were him, I'd borrow the cash on margin (<= 2% through M1 Finance or Interactive Brokers) to buy his Y since it's only 10% of his portfolio and pay it down over 5 years.

I'd like to see one in India. Large population, high pollution, high import duty on vehicles, skilled workforce.

April 20 Battery Investor Day?

I've seen a few people mention the possibility of a JV between Tesla and GM/MB but what about Toyota? I haven't seen any real efforts by them towards electrification and autonomous driving. Given their history of working together and seeing how far behind they are, I think it would make sense...

What's your VIN? I picked mine up in Tampa on Feb 12th with VIN 60xx. At 302 miles driven, the car became inoperable after a software update and shortly lost 12V power afterwards. I pick up my car tomorrow from the service center and they said it was due to a fault in the rear drive unit. I'm...

I pick up the car tomorrow but here's what the service center said about the issue:

The car is still at the service center. Here's the latest text I received from them today: "The diagnosis has determined that your Model 3 requires parts replacement. We have ordered the necessary parts and will update you again once we have an estimated time of arrival." For the time being...

I got hit with this issue recently which happened shortly after a software update. My VIN is in the low 6000s. Vehicle support said it was a 12V battery issue but was perplexed at all the error messages from my car. He had never seen anything like it before. It was Sunday afternoon and...

Nothing in particular. I don't even use range mode anymore since it turns off DRL and I'm on standard suspension height since low eats up your inner tread. Not sure why mine is so efficient but I like to think it was made during the time when Elon was sleeping on the assembly line floor.

22" Silver Turbines with Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico tires. Live in Tampa, FL. Haven't towed anything yet, just bike rack. Did a road trip up to Chicago in July and another to Atlanta when it was coldish (40s). Also have active spoiler.

382 Wh/mi on 16,258 miles

I have an appointment tomorrow with the SC to determine why the middle seat makes a cracking sound when moved forward (you can hear it in the video). Tonight, I decided to test whether it still made the sound and in the process, discovered that the cupholder gets opened by the seat. At the time...

I had turn signal issues 2-3 months in where it was blinking fast. They had to replace the fog light assembly.

US, Late April delivery

90D w/ Pirellis

90D w/ 22". My 90% gets me 228 miles. 100% is 254 miles. 10k miles with avg lifetime 385 Wh/mi. VIN 3334.

I think we're saying the same thing. No evidence, not enough data... Let's move on.

I don't think there's enough data, at least publicly, to know whether or not driving with one pedal increases your likelihood of unintended acceleration. What % of miles driven are creep vs no creep? Of these types of accidents, what % had creep on or off? Only Tesla knows. But thanks to wk057...

I had previously assumed the majority of unintended acceleration accidents were a result of drivers new to no creep driving.

8.0 for X is coming this week according to Elon's tweet yesterday. Window moving up is a normal part of the door closing and latching.

Can you tell from the logs if the driver had creep off at time of accident?

I have a 90D with towing package (VIN 3xxx, April delivery). My dust cover looks different than what's in the manual and from pics I've seen like Bonnie's Sig 2. Did I get the wrong cover or did they update the design?

Falkor from Neverending Story

90D with 22" here. Almost at 10,000 miles, my lifetime avg Wh/Mi is 386. 90% charge gets me 228 rated miles.

Can I have a mod delete this thread? Thanks!

My X90D was in the service center for interior issues and a bad fog light. I checked my car's logs from teslalog.com and noticed the car was driven 18 miles for 35 minutes on the last day it was at the service center. Is that typical? Struggling to find a reason for why they'd need to drive it...

I just got back from a road trip from Tampa to Chicago in my X90D (22" wheels) with 7 passengers and frunk and trunk filled with luggage. We stopped overnight at a relative's house in Atlanta and were able to charge using a 10-30P adapter + extension cable. I highly recommend this setup if...

Picked up my fully loaded, 22" silver wheels, midnight metallic silver 90D (VIN 33xx) on 4/25 in Tampa. Had some minor issues at delivery. Hood needs adjusting. Right side sits higher than left side. Left falcon wing door isn't flush with the car when closed. 3rd row seat belts have an extra...

Was there anything you had to do to get a DS assigned? I confirmed Dec 8th for fully loaded 90D and haven't heard anything yet. Should I be bugging them?
