Do you believe either one of these 2 parts could also be a culprit for making the tailgate feel like its 200 lbs when trying to close it?
I was rear-ednded and after all the repairs, I need to "lift with my knees" to be able to close it. Its HEAVY!
They replaced both driver and passanger Airwave Modules. Fixed that rattle but they caused another rattle while they were in there. Thats going to be addressed tomorrow.
I've never "tested" this but I want to say the answer is yes. I assume it would retain more heat than plastic. I've never not been able to close the tailgate because it was too hot though. Albeit I live in NJ, not AZ.
Its STURDY!
I also felt that $250 was steep. But as I look back now after months of use....I absolutely do not regret the purchase. It was money well spent.
I think it really depends on your use of the bed in the truck. If you never lean anything over the tailgate, dont buy this. If you use...
I think its been 5 months now. It looks great. I've tied many long items that extend out the truck, causing them to rest on the applique and I have not a single scratch.
Here are photos, its raining, sorry...
I dont have an answer for your question but I pulled my tailgate applique off and installed this:

This is what I recommend for you. You'll never worry about scratching, denting, scuffing that cheap plastic crap. I was a...
So sad that a pickup truck is viewed as political message nowadays.
I'm really itching to mount a big beautiful star spangled banner in the bed of my CT. No one should be afraid to fly an American flag in America and somehow thats also viewed as a political message.
Thats great news and sounds like an awesome event. I love your thought behind this.
I wouldn't say that not participating in a parade is considered as "running" or "hiding" though, that's more than a stretch. As a conservative myself, I also don't think we need to be martyrs for Tesla's image...
The "ONE story" you read is actually about 2 CTs being vandalized, not one. That one parade alone had "multiple" vandalism reports.
Not saying its a CT parade epidemic but it's enough for me to never want to participate in a parade, sadly.
Whoever volunteers should be warned of the potential dangers of participating in a parade. There have been multiple instances of CTs being vandalized during a parade. There is no escape from a parade either. As people potentially start throwing debris at the CT, they'll have no choice but to...
Only option is replacing the door. There's no other fix.
Im waiting until i know for sure Tesla has the right adhesive and isn't going to just replace the door with another door that will eventually fail as well.
Yes they were very noticeable and but not so frequent if that makes sense.
If you can wait then that's def the way to go. You never know what's going to happen once techs start tearing the truck apart. They usually inadvertently damage something ?
Both my driver and passanger Airwave Modules were replaced earlier this week. Tech showed me the old parts and how the fins rattled when he shook the modules.
But....certain (not all) bumps in the road still cause a little rattle in those fins. It's much improved for sure but not 100% rattle...
