    Model Y price reduction

    I have an order for a Long Range Model Y which I submitted about 10 days ago and had just received a VIN number. This afternoon I stopped by the Virginia Tyco Road Store and talked to a sales rep about the price reduction. I asked the rep whether I needed to cancel and then reorder to take...

    Tesla telling me I have to upgrade/pay for new S75 from S60

    I would pay the $1500 and get the upgraded car. No down side to that!!

    70 to 75 Who upgraded?

    I think $500 is the right price. Upgraded yesterday.

    I have a refreshed 70D and got my 8.0 update within days of its release.. I was connected to my home wi-fi.

    Overcoming range anxiety.

    Have to admit, I was surprised myself. The Lumberton, NC supercharger was full, as well as the Savannah, GA location. My wait was extremely short, but all the stalls were full while I was there.. My trip was during the first 2 weeks of August so that may have accounted for the many users.

    Overcoming range anxiety.

    I have some thoughts about this. I am a new owner of a S 70D with 19 inch wheels. Since the car was delivered in late June 2016, I've traveled with my family from Northern Virginia to NY and to Orlando. During my trip down to Orlando I stopped in practically all the Superchargers between...

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    I have the exact same problem with my S70D delivered just 2 weeks ago.. I noticed the creaking noise shortly after I took possession of the car. I made an appointment today to have the noise checked. The Service person who took my information told me that this was a known problem and that a...

    Autopilot-to-TACC (autopilot cancel) bad interaction

    I've noticed this problem too and find it disconcerting when I turn off auto-steer and the TACC remain engaged, causing the car to surge in speed. I've found that the most effective solution is to push back once on the autopilot stalk, which disengages both the auto-steer and the TACC.

    EZ-Pass transponder mounting on refreshed nosecone-less Model S

    I live in Virginia and installed my Ez-Pass using the same orientation like the picture, except you read the text from bottom to top. I recently did a road trip from Northern Virginia to NY via I-95 and the NJ Turnpike and the transponder worked perfectly. It also works without a problem in the...

    Lane Departure/Blind spot wheel vibration

    I've had a S70D for a week and find the rumbling sound/vibration annoying. Can't it be turned off in the control panel?

    How long was your wait in line? (I think we were at the slowest store..)

    At the Tyson's Corner-Tyco Rd., Virginia store there must have been 6 order takers. To be honest, I was so excited I didn't pay much attention!

    How long was your wait in line? (I think we were at the slowest store..)

    I arrived to the Tyson's Corner-Tyco Road, Virginia store at 8:30 am and I was #115 or so in the line. I was out of the store, reservation made, at 11:05 am. From the moment the store opened at 10:00 am, it took me around an hour to make a reservation.. I think it moved at a good pace. There...

    Tesla, this is what the production Model 3 should look like

    Very nice!!! This is the way it should look.. !
  37. Big-Al

    Model 3 is beautiful!

    I am a Mini owner too and I fully agree with you. I never look at the speedometer in the center console; it takes your attention from the road The best location is in front of the driver, behind the steering wheel.. I have to think that the final version of the Model 3 will have an instrument...

    Am I supposed to receive an e-mail confirmation or?

    I reserved at 11am (3/31) at the Tyson's Corner-Tyco Road store (Virginia) and have yet to receive an email. That said, the reservation showed up my Tesla account around 2 am Friday, some 15 hours later.
  39. Big-Al

    How will you use your Model 3

    I'm a daily commuter, too... at least 50 miles per day. For one, I'm looking forward to saving money on gas, some $50 a week. I'm sure I will be taking lots of road trips, too!!!! It will be great!!!

    Free supercharger or pay per use?

    It seems to be that is is unfair to assume that those who may want to pay less for an EV and purchase a Model 3 are "cheapskates" who will abuse the use of the supercharger network. Like others say, if the cost of supercharging is baked into the price of the car, then buyers, whether they are...
