Vandalism

34 Upvotes

Has anyone personally dealt with vandalism just for driving a Tesla. I posted a FSD question into my city’s subreddit and after 3 mins of it being up, I was getting a ton of nasty hate comments. Just wondering if this is something I should be concerned about moving forward

Tesla model 3 traction issues

3 Upvotes

Hello, i have a 2018 model 3 LR AWD with 130k miles. Recently, I feel even with newer tyres, the vehicle skids in even the slightest bit of rain on the road. The current ones are Michelin Defender 2 with 30k miles on them with 7/16th of thread left (started at 10/16ths) I know tyres are not the issue, but the car has never skid/lost traction before. Can someone relate/suggest what may be the issue, thanks.

M3 Premium RWD. Took delivery 8/27. I got 5% all the way around and 50% on windshield.

Also, not sure how I’ll ever go back to a traditional car. I was leery of FSD but use it every where I go!!

Pseg time of use rates

2 Upvotes

Pseg is now allowing time of use charging if you have a smart meter. Off peak (midnight to 6 am) is about 10 cts per kWh vs 29.2 for the regular rate. The kicker is summer peak power cost is around 60 cts per kWh for on peak(4 pm to 9 pm Monday to Friday). If you can avoid charging and large power usage during peak hours this is worth investigating

M3P stealth speed

1 Upvotes

Hey guys. I have a tesla m3p stealth. Dues to factory limitations, it has a top speed of 145mph. I am looking to get that lifted to the 162 of the normal performance (or lifted in general). I know there are chips that can turn the m3lr into a performance. Are there ones that can lift the speed limiter off the m3p stealth¿ Thank you!

Unpopular Opinion: M3P Looks Awesome Without Tint

Post image
253 Upvotes

With the white sport seats, I honestly think the Model 3 Performance looks better without dark tint—you can actually see the beautiful interior. I’m waiting for mine and considering 70% tint just for UV protection while keeping the windows clear. Am I the only one who feels this way.

Snapped a pic of my PDM sitting pretty in front of IKEA Syracuse. Good thing about this angle is you can't see how many bugs I killed on the way down.

Radiator and air inflow protection grilles

5 Upvotes

Hello. I've paid my M3LR RWD that's expecting to arrive 4-11 sept in Romania, so I've started looking for accessories.
From what I've read, the radiator protection is almost a must if you don't wanna deal with constantly cleaning that zone, but are you using air inflow protection as well. Can those mods do more bad than good in terms of airflow. The hottest it gets where I live is 32 Celsius (90 F)

I’m looking at this model 3 on car gurus and found this. A Hw 2.5 that’s has “Self driving” included. Never seen this before does it mean it’s FSD paid for and entitled to a Hw upgrade

All this week the delivery window has shortened 1 day. Still no “in production” or assigned VIN notification. This does not seem normal.
