Reviews dropped yesterday. My key takeaways: Magneride fixes much of what people have been complaining about regarding the suspension (which seems eerily similar to how I would describe my Model 3). Sport seats a huge improvement Ford promises to upgrade charging over 80% including OTA for...

Was watching a video posted in the delivery thread and noticed that there is the tell tale sign of infrared lights / sensors in the upper console of the S, near the camera. Is this just for low-light facial recognition? Interesting....

I'm getting really tired of this. Driving on the highways of Houston (in particular I-10), there are a lot of trucks. It's a large, 4-6 lane highway depending on where you are. Almost invariably if I am changing lanes into an open lane that happens to be next to a truck, the car freaks out...

So for those of you who haven't seen this posted elsewhere, Unplugged Performance is again teaming up with Randy Pobst to take on Pikes Peak. Last year Randy was driving a Model 3 and got caught out in practice and crashed. He still raced, but on very reduced top speed. This year they're...

Surprised this hasn't been reported on here yet. I searched and saw nothing. If duplicate post, I apologize. Was listening to the Spike's Car Radio Podcast yesterday. He's friends with Jay Leno and Jay called in while he was recording. They were talking EV's and Jay, who is a big Tesla...

ev, electric vehicle, michelin pilot sport ev :: Michelin North America, Inc. I'm really, really excited for this. As someone who is not seeing the benefit of my Pilot Sport 4S's because of tons of highway driving and straight roads, but who still wants a performance tire, I'm so psyched about...

So, not sure how many of you are familiar with Matt Moreman of Obsessed Garage, but he just bought a Model 3 Performance. He’s going to do a full round of mods to it, should be an interesting series. Matt is an interesting guy. No BS, calls it as he sees it. He started making videos as a way...

Ive had my LRAWD for a little over a month now and have almost 3,000 miles on it. I’ve used Autopilot extensively in many conditions. And I can’t quote for the life of me why autopilot works so smoothly sometimes and a disaster in others. On my way home, I have a mix of conditions on the...

So I've got walk away locking enabled on my Model 3 and I'm puzzled by it's behavior. When I come home, typically getting out of the car is a bit of a process. I get my stuff out of the front, usually retrieve a jacket from the rear seat, and then something from the trunk. When I shut the...

All: Forgive the rather idiotic issue I'm bringing up but it's kind of driving me nuts. I have an iPhone X, paired to the car. Also have an Apple Watch 4 that I just got for Christmas. Out of the car, I'm getting text alerts like normal, both on the watch and on the phone. However once...

Today marks one week in my Model 3 and I've just gone over the 650 mile mark. Most things I love about it, a few things not as much. One thing is the damn rattle in my center console where the phone dock is. But that's another post. For the most part, I feel like the Model 3 (mine is an AWD...

So as you have all probably realized already, the Model 3's doors are not always the easiest to shut completely. My kids are having a hard time closing them completely without leaving them open or slamming them. Last night I got home late with my son and he got out of the car and I plugged...

hello all! Today I took my LR AWD out for its first long-ish drives. The first drive of the day was pretty cold for TX. High 40’s and raining pretty steadily. It was mostly highway. I started the climate about 5 minutes before I left while still connected to shore power. Car had finished...

Took delivery of my LR AWD Model 3 on Friday. Today was the first day of longer drives, and commuting. Overall did pretty well although with some quirks. The one thing that did bother me was that while driving home, I had the inside temp set to 70. Outside temp was a constant 55 degrees...

is it easy to source a replacement phone holder pad? The stock rubber one? Gotta project I am going to attempt and want to know how easily I can rectify if I screw up. Thanks!

So the delivery date for my M3 LR AWD is tomorrow (yay!). I'm in Texas and I requested that Tesla not include any doc fees, registration fees or taxes on my MVPA. The reason is they couldn't figure out the trade in discount situation since my trade in was a lease. I don't mind going to the...

hello, I searched and didn’t find a Definitive answer. Is there any way to stream through the Model 3’s unit other than the native apps? Can you add other streaming services, or so you have to resort to Bluetooth for that? I have to say, this is by far the most disappointing aspect of the...

Did some searching about tinting with white interior. See the consensus seems to be minimum 30%. I have an off-White interior on my Porsche and went with 30% because it’s black and I didn’t want the car completely murdered out looking. I somewhat regret it. I’m planning on going with 20%...
