Gotta say I ve very intrigued at the whole costs less than a conventional roof claim regarding the solar roof. So take the most expensive roof option available today and that s the benchmark. ~~Obviously~~ I d be very surprised if he ~~wasn t~~ was referring to asphalt shingles. | D-egg-O | 2016-11-17 21:27:55 | 9 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

As this was approved with over 85% - does this square with your anecdotal inquiries? How d you end up making out? I hope you loaded up on those SCTY shares. Quite the free money-on-table killing. | dirtyfries | 2016-11-17 21:07:30 | 7 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

7w2hjq | [Opinion] Bolt vs Model S 60 | I currently own a Model S 60 which has been great I ll probably be replacing it with the 3 in the next couple weeks. My wife owns a Chevy Cruze so I thought about trading that in for a Bolt since the tax credits will be up on Teslas long before I could get the shorter range 3. So I called a bunch of dealerships until I finally found one with 2 2017 Bolts. I wasn t planning on buying immediately but they convinced me I should come down and test drive it and get a trade in value on the Cruze. Dealing with the sales guys there was extremely unpleasant but that aside here are some thoughts on the Bolt vs the slowest Tesla Model S. ### Backup camera: Model S is great. Bolt was seriously terrible. Like looking through a shower door. I asked them if it was just dirty but they said they choose to use a lower resolution to save weight. ### Driver Assistance: Tesla AutoPilot is great. Ultrasonics work great. Bolt shows you if cars are in your blind spots with lights on the mirrors (I love this and wish Tesla had it). Shows ultrasonics at low speeds. Doesn t show distance or pickup low objects like curbs. ### Regen Braking: Model S: I only drive with the highest setting and really rely on it for braking. Tesla regen is really consistent until you start moving really slow at which point it lets you coast. Bolt: Has 4 modes sort of Normal Low Sport Sport + Low. In low it s stronger than the Tesla which I liked but only at low speeds. At interstate speeds it doesn t really feel like Regen is even engaged (I thought this was an odd choice). At low speeds regen will bring you to a complete stop. ### Acceleration: Model S is officially 0-60 in 5.5 seconds but still feels really responsive and fast to me. Bolt is officially 0-60 in 6.3 but seriously felt weaker than my wifes Chevy Cruze. At parking lot speeds it pinned me back a tiny bit but driving up an on ramp to the freeway it felt like a golf cart. At 70MPH it had almost no ability to speed up and pass. ### Aesthetics: Looks are subjective... but... Lets just say the Bolt looks better in the pictures. ### Fit and finish: My S is pretty decent with the the worst thing being chrome on one door is about 2mm off from the door it joins. With the bolt the entire thing looks like a bunch of intentionally miss-aligned lines and colors made of plastic. Looks like they put some thought into the assembly team but only gave the designer a couple minutes. ### Controls: Model S has controls that make sense to me for the most part. I ll have to reevaluate after I get the 3. Bolt looked like they would take me a couple hours to get used to with most of them probably just staying hidden in a menu once I figured out what I had to look at. ### Dealer Experience: Tesla: Basically they just ignore you unless you ask questions and all seem pretty happy to work there. No pressure whatsoever. Chevy: Even though I d told them before even coming in to test drive that I wasn t planning on buying in the next few months they seemed super offended that I wasn t going to buy immediately. Tried guilting me because apparently Mike had come in on his day off to show me the car. They asked how I would like it if someone expected me to work for free. I told them that I was sorry about him working on his day off but I wasn t going to make a decision like this in 3 minutes. They joked that I could have 5. Never actually gave me an appraisal on my wifes car so I took it to CarMax on the way home they were much nicer there. | anthem4truth | 2018-02-08 05:01:47 | 28 | dtxv5wp | I ve wanted a Tesla since 2008. I ve had EV s since 2013. Honda Fit EV RAV4 EV E-Golf and now a Bolt. I had a Model 3 reservation after standing in line on 3 31 16 in the bay area. I ve driven a Model S of my neighbor s that had AP1. Got to commute in that S as a daily driver for a week. I rented a Model 3 last weekend and put it through its paces. I ve had the Bolt since November and feel pretty damn impartial when I say the Bolt surprisingly is a better car *for me* than the Model 3. I hated the Bolt at first mainly because of the shitty seats and the cheap feel of the interior. But the ugly little thing has grown on me over the last 2 months. Considerably. It actually gets over 180 miles of real range at 75mph on bay area freeways. That s more than my neighbor s S would get at the same speeds (it was a S 70 rear wheel drive). The Bolt is nimble and feels almost as fast off the line as the Model 3. It has things I use every day that I d miss if I switched to the Model 3. Biggest are the regen that lets you come to complete stop along with the paddle for on-deman regen Android Auto that makes the car feel like an extention of my phone that I can completely control with my voice. The heated steering wheel the rear view mirror camera which is just as sharp as the camera on the S and way better than the camera on the Model 3. Little things like how much easier it is to get my kids in and out of their car seats in the Bolt versus what I experienced in the Model 3. I was honestly let down by the Model 3 because of how small and dark it felt in the cabin versus what my expectations had been. I thought I would be blown away by the all glass roof and that it would make the cabin feel open. Truth was that I barely noticed it was there because of how dark the tint was. Also couldn t believe Tesla can t implement regen like the Bolt has. Just give us a choice on how much we want. Once you get used to one pedal driving it makes driving any other car feel annoying. I did like the touchscreen in the Model 3. That was probably my favorite feature and I wasn t bothered by having all the controls being done on it. Feels like the future but the Bolt does what I need it to do for much cheaper (my lease for 45k miles cost $7k out of pocket) and does it better for my needs. I d never take the Bolt or a Model 3 on a road trip because neither would never fit our family as well as our minivan. Two kids two dogs strollers camping gear kennels etc. I doubt I d ever get to road trip in a model 3 unless it was a solo trip somewhere. TLDR don t write off the Bolt completely. It does some things better than the Tesla s and its a very well engineered ugly little car. Depending on your needs it might actually suit you better like it does me. | red_stripe05 | 2018-02-08 17:44:47 | 11 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |

It s not likely that Mike was the only one who could show you the Bolt. > I wasn t going to make a decision like this in 3 minutes. They joked that I could have 5. It s not a joke. They want you in and out buying a car. They don t want to spend any more time than necessary. > Bolt is officially 0-60 in 6.3 but seriously felt weaker than my wifes Chevy Cruze.

7v5rph | [PSA] Beware of the quirks of the current round of the Tesla Referral Program (February 1 till April 30 2018) | 1. Only the **FIRST** to use a referral code in this round of the referral program will receive the credit toward service or accessories. A clever step by Tesla because that way there is just no point at all that the same referral code is used more than once. 2. There will be **NO credit** if the order is placed on the Other Europe version of the Tesla website (locale ** en-EU**). This may be a mistake by Tesla but it definitely says Free Unlimited Supercharging and a € 0 Credit and no mention of the credit in the design studio so I would avoid placing an order using that version of the website. 3. If you place an order in **Macau** you still get the full **HK$8 800 credit** (equivalent of US$1 000) toward a new Model S or X so that one is not just an account credit toward service or accessories but gets deducted from the purchase price as it was till last year all around the globe. 4. The Tesla website does not tell that the one subscribing to the **Tesla Newsletter** will get a chance to race the semi truck together with the owner of the used referral code but that each individually gets a chance. Seeing in the Leaderboard that someone has already 1200 entries on the present day it would not be possible otherwise. There will be weekly drawings so the one with the most entries is not automatically a winner. | TeslaBargain | 2018-02-04 09:02:51 | 23 | dtq5077 | I won t have to worry about this because no one ever uses my referral code. :( | UnknownQTY | 2018-02-04 17:07:19 | 5 | Issues with Tesla Referral Program |
9jffsg | [PSA] Call the day before your delivery! | Especially with the end of quarter rush Tesla is being a little overly eager to schedule deliveries as early as possible. My Model 3 P delivery was scheduled for tomorrow and after calling the person who I scheduled the delivery with they checked the tracking info and it s only just scheduled to arrive to a nearby state tomorrow! So next to zero chance of them making the delivery window so we rescheduled to Sunday. I m sure a bunch of east coast deliveries will have the same delivery delays. I think we can all agree that it should be Tesla s responsibility to contact us of delays in advance but that s life I guess. Time to see if I can move the date my insurance kicks in back a few days... **TL DR:** Don t go into your delivery blindly! Call ahead! | FlatFishy | 2018-09-27 18:34:26 | 71 | e6r0tvm | *9 6 Set up an appointment with Brett for pick up on 9 26 at 3pm in Rocklin CA. Ask about possibility of a direct delivery option. *9 6 Receive email from Brett confirming 9 26 3pm pick up in Rocklin CA. He indicates “not ignoring questions” just busy. No info or notification of direct delivery. *9 7 Confirmation email from Brett and payment options. No info or notification of direct delivery. *9 17 I email Brett about Direct Delivery possibility as we have to find a way to Reno (3 hours north of us) and rent a car $75 or rent a car from here at a cost of $221. *9 21 I receive email from Brett I m going to look into the possibility of a home delivery for you today. If we can do it it will likely cause us to need to reschedule your delivery would that be okay on your end?” I will get back to you on the home delivery shortly!” *9 21 I respond stating that we are still interested in home delivery. *9 23 I respond again checking on the possibility of home delivery. *9 25 9:00am: With no response from Brett or anyone else about Home Delivery I email Brett that we will pick up car in Rocklin as originally scheduled and as is on the website. My father-in-law then drives down from Reno (3 hours) to pick us up and take us up to Reno (3 hrs) so we can then rent a car for $185 less than in Mammoth Lakes Ca. *9 25 12:00pm: Worried about delays and the drive I call Rocklin Delivery Center directly they are too busy to find out the status of our car. *9 25 4:30pm: As we are loaded and sitting in the car to drive to Reno I decide to call Rocklin one more time with an added sense of urgency in my voice Keely (who was wonderfully kind) finds that in face my car is scheduled for Home Delivery. But that I should call Brett directly to confirm this she provides me with his phone number and your phone number. *9 25 4:30pm-5:00pm- Call frantically trying to find out if we need to go to Reno or not as Father-in-Law is not amused with the situation. Call Manuel Mendez as well. No answer from either person. *9 25 5:00pm- Call main 888 number and get Basil who is extremely helpful Skypes Brett and eventually whole team. Someone physically walks over to Brett s desk. Basil tells me they are telling him that I would receive a call within the hour. Father-in-Law now waiting longer driving back to Reno now in the dark. Wife now in tears. *9 25 6:30pm - No Call. We tell Father-in-Law he should just go back to Reno (3hr drive). We try to make up for his pointless trip down with two bottles of whiskey a bottle of vermouth and $40 cash. Wife crying worried her dad is going to hit a deer or crash (he didn t) and that she caused all of it. *9 25 9:20pm - Get a call from you appreciate that but was already asleep by this point. You explain as described in email. I wish I had asked for date as I have to drive to LA on Friday afternoon which leaves my wife and daughter carless for the weekend. *9 26 As of 3pm appointment still shows Rocklin CA at 3pm 9 26 *9 26 8 am email Manuel Mendez with above email no response. *9 26 3:45pm receive a call from Patrick Setterland in Vegas Home Delivery Specialist goes over everything and how Home Delivery will work and that the car will arrive Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday or next week. Sounds good! Patrick is awesome. *9 27 10:45am receive a call from David at Rocklin CA delivery center. Hi Karl I have great news for you your car is “in town and ready to go!” Awesome! Except “in town” means Rocklin CA and is ready to be PICKED UP. It is not scheduled for delivery. It is at the Rocklin Delivery Center. ARE YOU GUYS INSANE? *9 27 11:15am I call Delivery Center back. David is unable to contact anyone offers me $200 Tesla Credit to come down and pick up today. It s a 4.5 hour drive. 4.5 hour drive EACH WAY. I need to rent a car to do this the car rental costs $239. *9 27 11:20am. David calls me back offers to cover cost of rental car and $200 credit. I m not pleased with a $200 credit but David is not the person that deserves to be dealing with all of this. I let him know that we are not coming to pick up our car until I have a picture of said car and a picture of the VIN number. Car is not on the lot so he is going to go try and get that. *9 27 12:00pm. David calls tells me to come now without picture. Tell David we re not coming unless they can cover a hotel night he says he can t. Now trying to contact Patrick Setterland with no response. Edit: all is well. Hugely frustrating experience but we got our car. Patrick Setterlund and Manuel Mendez we re both awesome and getting everything sorted and are both just kind people. David was kind of a dick. Car is amazing. Tesla screwed up but they also did the right thing in end to make us feel valued. | Pity_Boner | 2018-09-27 19:04:25 | 16 | Tesla Delivery Woes |

bk8tgr | [PSA] Corded GEN2 Mobile Connector (UMC) | Remember when Tesla announced that the 14-50 adapter will no longer be included with new vehicles for the UMC? I noticed today that they put a new item on the charging page on the shop. The [Corded Mobile Connector](https: shop.tesla.com ca en product vehicle-accessories corded-mobile-connector.html) (CMC)? Seems like a Mobile Connector with a fixed 14-50 plug. I guess they want people to buy this one for charging at home using a 14-50 socket. | Kimorin | 2019-05-03 14:01:12 | 16 | emeskat | Pricing seems off. The new corded mobile connector is $520 but the regular move connector is $300 and the NEMA 14-50 adapted is $35. Would people actually want to pay an almost $200 premium for less flexibility? | CmonYouKnowMe | 2019-05-03 14:06:28 | 5 | Tesla Model Travel Experiences |
a2xskd | [PSA] Do NOT rely on TeslaCam as proof of accident.

The opening closing of the door might have made the TeslaCam to be unstable.

No trying out the door handles putting your fingers on the glass etc. As more Model 3s reach showrooms and service centers it becomes very enticing to check them out. But you should never touch a car without the owner s permission. This stems from a post earlier where someone went to check out newly delivered cars at a showroom. These are someone s personal property and should not be messed with even if they haven t been delivered. | midfielder4929 | 2018-02-03 20:13:56 | 290 | dtp2whp | I live in Japan.

Not at delivery lots but cars that owners have taken delivery of driven some place and parked. Then some idiot walks up with a camera and tries to open somebody s car. This is a pretty bad idea in a lot of states. If you re seen trying to get into somebody s car they d probably be justified in assuming you re trying to steal it or something from inside. I don t think violence is an answer but a lot of states allow someone to use violence to defend their property if they think someone is trying to take it. Beside that there s a respect issue here. I wouldn t walk up to your house and poke my head inside to look around. Why would I think I could do that to your car??

I was literally just at my service center showroom an hour ago with my X and there was a 3 in the parking lot. The outdoor public parking lot. It was parked between two non-Teslas. While standing 2 feet away from it just looking at it from the curb a Tesla employee came running out yelling that s someone s car! and admonishing me to get away from it. I get not touching it which I was totally not doing it but yelling at a current Tesla owner for looking at it from a few feet away? Seems like some sort of event happened that has made them insanely protective. Does anyone know what it was?

90q7cg | [PSA] Don t be an idiot dad like me when you forget your keyfob. | Like every morning I was rushing to work and had to drop my daughter at school first. I normally lock our house door on my way out which ensures I have my keys but this time my wife walked us out and I forgot to check for my keys. When I reach our parking garage (condo) I realized that I left my keys upstairs but thought “oh wait! Technology!” I pulled out my phone and unlocked my car and keyless driving. I placed my daughter in her car seat and I sat down and placed my phone in the charger holder located in the center console. Still rushing I pull up to her school in a “No Standing” zone run to the back seat to grab my daughter and as soon as I closed the door the car automatically locks. My stomach drops.... I realized I left my phone in the center console as well as my daughter s book bag in the front seat. With no keyfob I couldn t unlock the car . I also realized if I was a fraction of a second later in reaching the rear seat I could ve locked my daughter in the backseat with child lock enabled. After dropping my daughter at school I tried to see if my Apple Watch could connect to my phone and do something magical. Didn t work. I frantically begged another parent to use their cell phone to call my wife and ask her to login to the Tesla app on her phone and unlock the car. Of course my wife was in the shower and it took her 15mins 100 calls for her to pick up. TL DR if you re using the Tesla app s keyless driving without having your keyfob nearby don t lock your children or phone in your Tesla. Also park legally. Edit: my Apple watch doesn t have cellular and couldn t connect to my phone.

90q7cg | [PSA] Don t be an idiot dad like me when you forget your keyfob. | Like every morning I was rushing to work and had to drop my daughter at school first. I normally lock our house door on my way out which ensures I have my keys but this time my wife walked us out and I forgot to check for my keys. When I reach our parking garage (condo) I realized that I left my keys upstairs but thought “oh wait! Technology!” I pulled out my phone and unlocked my car and keyless driving. I placed my daughter in her car seat and I sat down and placed my phone in the charger holder located in the center console. Still rushing I pull up to her school in a “No Standing” zone run to the back seat to grab my daughter and as soon as I closed the door the car automatically locks. My stomach drops.... I realized I left my phone in the center console as well as my daughter s book bag in the front seat. With no keyfob I couldn t unlock the car . I also realized if I was a fraction of a second later in reaching the rear seat I could ve locked my daughter in the backseat with child lock enabled. After dropping my daughter at school I tried to see if my Apple Watch could connect to my phone and do something magical. Didn t work. I frantically begged another parent to use their cell phone to call my wife and ask her to login to the Tesla app on her phone and unlock the car. Of course my wife was in the shower and it took her 15mins 100 calls for her to pick up. TL DR if you re using the Tesla app s keyless driving without having your keyfob nearby don t lock your children or phone in your Tesla. Also park legally.

Fascinating. For those that don t know... Cars used to use a thermal switch for the blinker. The actual blink rate due to the generation of heat was a balance between voltage and circuit load. There would normally be 2 light bulbs on the string which would blink at the normal rate. When a bulb burned out the load change on the circuit caused the blink rate to increase. Before cars went to using digital blinkers the fast blinker always indicated that a bulb s burned out. Or perhaps in your classic car a bad ground somewhere. | _ohm_my | 2018-12-12 15:07:40 | 187 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

Running a course with TC on can give you a false sense of how fast you can take certain turns if the car is subtly stepping in to help during braking and accelerating. I ve always much preferred running with TC off for first runs to not have anything between me and the car feedback. You just learn to take it slow and increase your pace as you go because you don t have a safety net. Really let s you feel the track without computer interference and teaches self control. Sometimes later I ll turn TC back on if I m getting to where I think the edge of my ability is as a safety net. IF Track Mode does end up being like TC off then I d recommend always start with on instead of in standard and learn to use your right foots built in traction control! That being said I fully support the don t be an idiot with track mode sentiment and to be careful starting out to see how it behaves in new situations. | PorscheAX | 2018-11-08 22:10:38 | 6 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |
69ngkr | [Personal Experience] Autopilot (AP2 17.11.45) was unable to detect truck ahead | PS : Looking for constructive feedback and possible mistake I was doing than blame the system. I love AP and if this is a corner case would love to help improve the system. Link to images : http: imgur.com a sYUqF Setup : Was driving on US101N using autopilot and following an SUV on the rightmost lane. The SUV decided to shift to another lane which put me right behind the red truck. The traffic at that point was moving slowly so the car gained some speed to catch up to the truck ahead but it did not seem to slow down as it got closer. I took a cautious approach and slowed down (manual override). When I looked down the instrument cluster did not show any vehicle ahead of mine ( as seen in the pictures ). Initial thought was probably the low speed I was driving at - which is not the case if you see the pictures with the Ford Explorer in front of me ( was at a traffic signal and it detects the car ahead ). To test it further I toggled AP again and the car started moving closer to the truck and once again no sign of slowing down until I was too close. Same signs was seen in 2-3 more attempts. After that I switched lanes and toggled AP and it was able to detect vehicles correctly. And this has to be some corner case cause I have driven behind a semi once using AP and had zero issues. What could be at play here ? | Gunnernaut7 | 2017-05-06 20:50:44 | 31 | dh88gvf | > The SUV decided to shift to another lane which put me right behind the red truck.

ACC has difficulty detecting slow-moving or stopped traffic. Read page 9 of this NHSTA investigation into the fatal Tesla Autopilot crash: https: static.nhtsa.gov odi inv 2016 INCLA-PE16007-7876.PDF The images on the bottom of page 9 are excerpts from other cars manuals. They all say that their implementations of ACC has trouble with slow-moving stopped traffic. | EmceeQubed | 2017-05-07 01:52:01 | 5 | Tesla Autopilot Performance Review |

To sell a car you need to buy an accessory to use is f-ing rediculous. Be it a wall charger or mobile charger something has to come with the car included to charge.

Just like removing Ethernet from Starlink. I don t mind that you found a way to get another $50 out of me. I mind that you are selling me an objectively incomplete product and didn t take the time and energy to ensure that I at least have the option to complete it. If they keep these in stock fine.

3jtuyw | [Prediction] Software v7 will be released on Sept 29 at the same time the first Model Xs are handed to customers. | Wouldn t it make sense for the Model X to start fresh on v7 (new interface including highway auto steer and perhaps a few surprises we don t know about yet)? And more importantly Tesla would give v7 to all Model S owners at the same time. Thoughts? | Goldor | 2015-09-06 05:37:04 | 16 | cusgqmw | It makes sense for the model X to only support v7. Why spend engineering resources to make sure v6.x works reliably on the X since they will still be expected to release v7 on it shortly after? Release date for v7 on model S is less clear. They could: - Release it before X shipments and get some extra press time (week of v7 and autopilot news and then a week of Model X news). If there are any highly visible issues with it they will have a head start on fixing it before Model X customers take delivery. - Release it on same day as first X shipment and have a single big day of news but potentially have increased headaches because they have to track day one issues of the software release and model X specific issues. - Release after Model X deliveries which will give them more time to test will give them some additional press time (but not as much as if it was released before the X). One big day of news seems to be their style but I d personally like to see v7 ship ahead of X deliveries. | Andreweller | 2015-09-06 14:15:28 | 7 | Miscellaneous Tesla Topic |
4ps51n | [Q] Adaptive Cruise Control | I understand that the autopilot package includes autopilot and summon.

4p585h | [Q] Charge Rates | Hi All Sorry for asking several questions on this sub but I am getting close to pull the trigger on an S60 and want to understand certain things a little better Charging.... the Tesla site indicates the following: * 110V: 3 - 4 miles range per hour * 240V: 29 miles range per hour * Supercharger: 170 miles per 30 minutes About once a month I will have to go about 260miles (i.e. at least one SC stop) where the destination will only provide a 110V recharging option. Refilling the car to ~100 miles range would take about 33 hours.... right? Or am I missing something? Thanks! | Kpt_Nemo | 2016-06-21 15:41:00 | 16 | d4i3ke9 | What s really weird is that 240v HPWC will give you 30 mph but 240v 14-50 will give you 29 mph. I have no idea why. You are up against one of the last remaining hassles for charging a Tesla: What if the destination doesn t have any charging and you re on a road trip? Options: - Supercharge to 90% so that you arrive at your destination with another power left to get back to the supercharger on your way home. It takes longer at high SoC but you may not have a choice. - Plan ahead the infrastructure at your destination. See if you can arrange access to 240v while you re there if you ll be there long enough for it to matter. - Buy a 75 or 90 kwh car to give yourself more range. That s what they re for after all. | majesticjg | 2016-06-21 15:52:07 | 7 | Tesla Model Travel Experiences |

I ve taken several road trips off the supercharger network. Once I had to use a 110 outlet I left the car plugged in for 3 days to get back up to full. I do two things now: I charge to 100% at the last supercharger and near my destination I use RV parks with 50A outlets. I tried the hypermiling techniques of driving under the speed limit but holy crap was it maddeningly boring. Basically when it comes to situations like this you want to minimize charge time as much as possible which means use the hell out of that supercharger. Fortunately since you ll be utilizing less than the full capacity of the battery pack (software limited rather than just having less batteries in it) you re not going to increase the wear and tear by charging to full so often. | tuba_man | 2016-06-21 16:02:56 | 6 | Tesla Model Travel Experiences |
