Retired Prof. of Computer Science

VIN 0191XX

Reserved 3/31/16 before unveiling; invited, configured and ordered 4/6//18 (first-production, EAP+FSD), VIN received 4/17/18, delivered 6/22/18.

Averaging around 230Wh/mi driving mostly at 40-60mph.

On the Big Island much of what we drive is constant up and down -- one day we did 18'000ft of climbing over a 250 miles roundtrip and still returned home with 50mi left: regen is great!

Charging exclusively at home, using solar power, so this is zero-carbon driving!

Main issue:

My Model 3 has never once registered a speed limit anywhere on the island, something Models S and X have no problem doing.  This means that EAP and FSD (which I bought) have so far been useless.  (You cannot go faster than 45mph with EAP in absence of a registered speed limit; the roads where EAP would be useful have 50-60mph speed limits, so traffic moves at 65mph; and the roads where driving at or below 45mph makes sense are too twisty and narrow for EAP.)  Tesla blames problems with the GPS provider, but why would that affect Model 3 and not Model S or X?
