I had an 80-something Firebird and the lights just stayed up permanently. Or if I had a date or wanted to look cool, I'd hand crank them up/down. I guess you could always buy a new relay, but that depends on how much money you have and what your priorities are For the Corvette, it was usually a plastic gear that wore out but you could get an aftermarket replacement in metal.

slade037 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 You're gonna love the M3P. You'll want to stop at every red light if you get the first position. Here's my performance and the trunk with my bag in it. I pack my leg pads in my bag, so it is pretty full. The trunk is deep enough that you can put it in long wise in (which i do now) as opposed to width wise as shown in the picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of when I used to try and jam my gear into my old civic. I don't think I'll give up the convenience of a truck bed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But slow down on the worship a little. A) You literally have to plug it in and unplug it daily, sometimes more. Hardest part about getting gas every week or so in NJ is rolling my window down. I don't even need to get out of my car. B) Cool. C) A Tesla will never need maintenance? If you're talking about oil changes, I change mine once a year. Takes 15 minutes and costs $22. Everything else is the same. Brakes, tires, wheel bearings. I think the first rule of Tesla ownership is telling everyone you have a Tesla. Nobody really cares. Just sayin' 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTH Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) I've been pretty much working from home for the past year. I'm fortunate in that my drives are way down. 200 miles a day is a lot of time in the saddle. Be careful. They really come out for service for everything? Is that included up to a certain mileage/months or do you have to pay for it per call? I know there aren't Tesla 'dealerships' in the traditional manner - so bringing it in for service isn't the same as the local Jeep place is. Not that it's a bad thing. Although my Jeeps come in for 'destructive maintenance' only. It's even better when I tell the service rep that. Most will get it, some will not. ha ha. I'm thinking about getting Car Shield. When car's hood won't close, an actual living Ghostbuster comes out to help. Him or Ice-T. Either way, totally worth it! Apparently a lot of people can't figure out how to close the hood on their vehicles. What a shame. Edited May 25, 2021 by MTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you schedule service through your phone, a majority of the items can be done through Mobile Service. ie, tire rotations, interior air filter change, or like my recent one replacing a cracked rear light. Obviously bigger items that require a lift or larger replacement parts would require a ride into the Service Center. They will tell you after you made your service request if they can't send someone out and you have to come in. You have Mobile Service available for as long as you own the car. Kind of like if you were a doing regular maintenance for the life of your car at any other name brand vehicle service center. You pay for the maintenance like any other car. The mobile service is not any more expensive than going in. Edited May 25, 2021 by slade037 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality, my Miata is usually in our garage hibernating throughout the hockey season. I don't play summer hockey. Truth time, we took a series of photos in order to win some gear from John Brown Sports. The contest was titled "What do goalies do in their off season?" I won some BROWN custom goalie pants.
