You will need your keycard to setup a new phone as key.

as Vanca mentioned, talk with your sales rep and get it added before you take delivery. I've had two referrals that forgot and tried to get it added after the got home and Tesla refused.

Make sure you use someone's referral code. Pick someone whom you have regularly chatted with on the forums or know personally.

My guess would be to use the many RV parks between AK and the nearest SC.

Why not reach out to Rich Rebuilds and see if they have any White interiors available from their rebuild activities.

Yes that is how it works. Your Tesla will occasionally "wake up" to top off the charge while plugged in.

I installed a Tesla Wall Connector myself. It's not hard, but you do need to do the research to make sure you follow all codes that are applicable to your area and situation. Depending on where you live you might need to get it inspected afterwards so the previous statement has even more weight...

Well the crime is damage to personal property. Yes, you can be held negligent and thus responsible, if you do not put shopping carts away in their proper spot.

Costco is not responsible at all in this scenario. If you want to waste money and time go ahead - you will lose. You can try and reach out to Costco with the video as proof to see if they have cameras that have a clear image of her plate. You can also try reaching out to tech communities to see...

Try to buy a Gen2 second hand.

I cannot see Tesla keeping around "old" battery manufacturing mechanisms after they move on to newer tech. For instance I imagine the next S and X refresh will at least get the 21700 batteries if not the new sauce they are working on. Tesla will want to streamline the battery assembly lines and...

Advancements in battery technology, such as dry-electrode. We will learn more on battery investor day and have a better idea of what it will be in the future.

By the time you need to replace your battery the cost will most likely be below $7k. No need to fret what the cost is today if you are not needing to replace your battery today.

You should be fine. I only have a 100 mile round-trip commute and driving around for lunch; I usually use between 35-40% SoC with speeds of 77-80 mph. Temperature and weather will have an impact as well.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.

Nope, at least in my experience. If I use a web browser to connect back to my Plex server, as soon as I put it in drive the video stops.

If the car already has FSD purchased against the VIN you will get the HW3.0 upgrade. If you purchase the car and it does not have FSD already purchased, you purchase it after the fact; you will get HW3.0. Short Story - If FSD is purchased you get HW3.0.

For the foreseeable future, yes.

Yes, there was a price reduction after the first drop in incentives. The fact remains they are still selling them as fast as they can make them - that is the point...

Probably just as well as when the tax credit went from $7,500 down to $3,750 and then down to $1.850.

If I were you I would go into Tesla and tell them that if it is not resolved to your satisfaction then you will return the vehicle. Do not wait.

One thing to keep in mind... it is not so much as the caliber of the projectile (bullet) rather it’s velocity and material composition.

We should learn about new battery tech in January during the Battery Investor's Meeting. Most likely all cars will get the new battery tech in 2020-2021. S and X will probably get a refresh around that time and get new motors and batteries first. (my guess)

There have already been FSD price increases, to think it won't happen again is silly. No competitor is close to Tesla when it comes to FSD.

It's really not; there are even strains of grass that can be used to create ethanol gas. Using passive photovoltaic will also be a better option as it frees up resources to focus on food production or other needed services versus energy production.

I don't see a NEMA 14-50 being installed but I can see a 14-30.

That really depends on the fleet and the purpose they server as to whether it makes practical sense or not. Claiming that it won't work at all is just as naive as someone claiming the contrary position.

They really don’t need to retrofit any. As they are adding v3 Superchargers they can begin installing those with pull-through in mind.

Well you are only partially correct. The flat surfaces and sharp angles are specifically designed to minimize radar signature, the Nighthawk itself is one big wing as the underbelly acts as a surface. It's unstable due to the design but that was solved a long time ago with fly-by-wire computers...

They couldn't have finished the reservation list last year when the only started delivering model 3's outside of the US this year.

while I would like it to be so, I do no believe it will. The most recent design for the uplink unit was rather large.

Zombie Apocalypse.

No, it rolls down under the seat. Pay attention to the rear window and you will see it go down.

The better question to ask is what effect temperatures will have on the new battery tech that Tesla is working on. I cannot imagine them rolling out a Cybertruck with existing tech to meet the stated specs.

There’s nothing saying that it has to be a solid pane. In fact with the work Tesla has done with their shingles for roofs could very well translate into the existing design.

The middle seat in the front folds down and provides a center console. Lots of full size pickups have this type of feature.

The abundance of small to midsize pickup trucks used by small businesses or contractors would beg to differ. Try not to assume you speak for everyone.

People, don't forget about PlastiDip (or one of the alternatives) as well. Lots of good options to have colors out there if you want.

Autopilot.

I did, we'll see how things develop to decide if I switch to the Cybertruck or purchase an R1T.

it’s not the same. Tesla’s website states that it is a 17” and the 3 has a 15” display.

Actually a lot of people did. For the S; a lot of people didn’t like the front end initially. there were complaints about the X, just much less.

The pictures on Tesla’s website look better and more “finished” than the product revealed.

It was just a tease.

Try a hard reboot. This step usually solves most problems.

For TeslaCam you will need to press the camera icon on the screen to save the last 10 minutes of video. For Sentry videos they are automatically saved when someone gets close to the car.

Poor attempt at troll humor.

You want full rental reimbursement. It’s well known that repairs can take longer than normal for Teslas. I would also request a Model 3 as a rental. This is less likely, but it’s worth a try. If the car is not totaled, ask for loss of value. Tally up any other expenses associated with the...

The Tesla was backed into the parking spot, so no.

Activate Dog Mode and you won't have any issues.
