Twitter fascination and purchase embodies all that is immature and stupid about Elon. Crossed the fine line from genius to insanity and smashed our investments with him. Thev wholev world and financial markets disrespect this move. No wonder the board of Tritter was unanimous. How would a poll...

So we understand the Company forum was closed because it got out of control with hate messages etc. What will be different about Twitter with free rein? Only more hate and more ugliness from some anonymous guys on the web. Elon, have you lost it?

Selling mine while it is still new, in Tasmania Australia. The way to get a LR M3 before Xmas. It is on Carsales.com.au

She did the test drive, and bought it for the sound system quality.

Mine, made in China 30 April 21. Quality is excellent everywhere, but range is appalling The Long Range we bought was good for 673 or 657? km. Tesla changed this to 580 the week after we bought it, also reduced the price by 10k. 100% charge shows 540 km on the screen, but in reality is 450 ish...

But at 100 miles it is flat. So, maybe leaving a bit in the tank, perhaps it isn't really going anyplace.

Bolt EV offers an EPA-estimated 259 miles of range,† on a full charge, owners are advised to keep the car outside and avoid overnight charging. Also, users should only charge the car to 90 percent full and keep the battery above 70 miles of remaining range. That gives 137 miles. Lets say real...

Sure I knew about it, have read about it, but when it happens in real life, it is a surprise. It is not good enough.

I have a new, MIC M3. Long Range. I bought it having 673 km of range. The next week this was changed to a different test cycle, so I have 580 km. Take off 20% from the top only charging to 80%, take off 20% at the bottom, we have 60% of 580 km = 348. OK, we can charge prior to a trip to 100% and...

2021.4.18.2 also. RHD in Australia and brand new. Pretty scary for our first time driver of a Tesla. For myself I have been in the forums six years, but the AP braking is totally a surprise. And a killer. A Tesla Killer. Maybe an Easter Egg from some departing technowizz :)

This is why the VIN is used in Spare Parts shops: they can immediately identify the iteration of your car and its components.

If it were not for the fact that I have been on the forums for 6 years, I/we would not be coping. Then again, we would not have been buying a Tesla.

We are struggling with learning all the facets of operating our new M3, there being no local assistance as we are out of state (Tas) and do not know anyone else. The car was delivered by a third party carrier, who "knows nussink". What I tend to do is spend countless hours watching Youtubes...

Since I started the thread, I guess I can comment :) Thank you all for coming out. Some names are the same, others changed. Like wallpaper. It would be nice to have identification of members from the Forum. When I joined this group I changed my name on our old forum from Ross to Ross1, to...

Tasmanian Stamp Duty waiver, already legislated, began yesterday, 1/7/21 On a Tesla. it is significant, $3000 + for M3

If anyone has used the Devonport supercharger, how much do they charge (in dollars) ?

Those of you, Tasmanians, with a Disabled Parking Permit sticker, did you know you are exempt stamp duty when buying any car? For Model 3 it is around $3000.

...ummm, all this just appeared on my Google News ...

@paulp: I think we used to interact there. Supposed to be going to Adelaide but overly cautious about lockdowns: we got locked down in Melbourne (straight after buying the M30 then had to isolate in Tas for a further two weeks, so one week to go. We could collect the 3 in Melb and drive to Adel...

Yes to all that, but it was intoxicating, personal if you could get in socially. On here I have always seen it as too...I don't know, impersonal. Anyway we looked at M3 in Melbourne, to my shock wife said I want one, just for the sound quality. So it comes 24 June, inventory unit, white seats...

@bj: thrilled to see you here!

I have it in writing from the leader of the Tas government that this legislation...not drawn up yet... is scheduled for the 2nd half of this year. Also a public policy statement: Provide a two-year stamp duty waiver for all new and second-hand Electric Vehicles Tasmania is ideally suited to...

It is , I have the same forum n ame. Who were you there?

Hey lola, g'day from the old forum!

I have one on order in Australia. Haven't heard from them yet. I think they owe me [compensation]

1500 Model 3 arrived in Sydney from China this week. Mine was built on Apr 30, so I guess it is one of them. Tasmania, just south of Australia.

It is the fastest charger in Australia. V3 . And that is a good thing because you wouldn't want to miss the boat! I travel frequently, just arrived this morning again. I don't see the SC being so useful for Spirit travellers but Devonport needs one, and why not at the ferry? Perhaps TT-Line made...

Get Karen to see the Manager, Jan.

In January , pre merger, it got to over $49. So it is now at 50% of its high two months ago.

Since the merger it has moved down from $32 to 24.

It is many magnitudes harder to drive at 155 than 100. I used to spend hours at 100. 125? enough , I have never been over that.

Can you explain why Chargepoint goes nowhere on the stock market?

Thanks for your comments :)

So, 5 years on, has anyone fully tested the roof rack?

We were running a GUESS as to who would have the last word on the "old site": It looks like it was a tie between you, M3phan, and TriumphBob. Clever! Congratulations, I think it was my thread so it is up to me to say that.

Today we were closed down by Tesla. It doesn't matter why now, it is history, and anyway we do not know why, we can only guess. Many of the participants will move to here, some with the same screen names, others will create new identities. Mine is the same.

I had guests use my Destination Charger. They must have thought it was paid for by Tesla as they left without paying. You know who you are.

On the ferry, remember which deck you parked your car, or 1: you won't find it 2: you will be called on the loud speaker to remove it, 3: And you still can't find it. Nowadays they have a little tear off card for you to take to identify your car position, in the lift well.

I was thinking how funny that guy was. Found out it was [ me :) ] Surprising how much you can forget. Interesting to revisit these posts. That other Tesla forum, I will miss it for 24 hours I guess.

This was an older thread. I spent my time mostly on the Tesla owned forums which have been cut (possibly due to too much infighting). So I might spend time here. I have orders in for a Cybertruck and a MSPlaid +...although if the market doesn't sustain the appropriate gains I may cancel one. At...

The prices for second hand (2019) M3 look higher than new today. Is this really the case?

Sorry about this but my Destination Charger is no longer available. It was an AirBnb which is now sold on as a private home. It may appear still on maps. On The Beach Cottage at Heybridge near Burnie.

Historically they couldnt even supply rivets for current models, nor many other spare parts. Best of luck. Dont think they are interested in spares, but prove me wrong.

Novonix is an Australian company, on the stock market: NVX:AX What exactly do you think they are doing with Tesla?

You an 8os child, me a 40s! But on the same page hey!

Would you say DeLorean is a cross bet M3 and CT? Thinking China Designers can come up with sthing more modern. Tesla called the world for design ideas, so int to see what comes of that?

I want a cross between Cybertruck and Model 3. No paint.

It is spyware, Chinese or Russian for sure! Cameras.

Wait 4 years? In the meantime I expect a rash of local manufacturers could easily beat CT to market with lookalike product. I expect to be spoiled for choice with unpainted personnel carriers. In fact I would expect that term to become quite widely used, like "people mover' usage

This is where you hook on the solar charger or generator. You can get a 120 watt solar charger here for @200 ish AUD. Would that charge it? A bit less range towing the trailer of course.
