The automotive community sometimes refers to Teslas as computers on wheels. To some extent this is true given the electronics, display screens, cameras and sensors which are in the vehicle. Virtually all of us carry around a smartphone and most Tesla owners use them as a key. Most of us clean and protect our smartphones. Some of us do it to eliminate germs, others for aesthetic looks or to maintain the longevity of your device. Why wouldn’t you do the same for your Tesla? Nobody likes to see the finger smudges, dirt or other debris on your screen in your S, 3, X or Y. To address this concern, many companies are producing screen protectors. One vendor, Abstract Ocean has a premium screen protector that has an antimicrobial layer. It not only protects your Tesla, it might keep you healthy! Check out the review we recently did on this product.

Many Tesla owners love to personalize their vehicles to reflect their unique personalities. Another priority for owners we hear about is the protection of their beloved vehicle. When it comes to protection, there are many facets and extremes. There are numerous options for exteriors including waxing, ceramic coating, paint protection film (PPF), and more. For interiors, many enthusiasts think of cleaning and detailing, but you may not know about PPF protection for parts of the interior. One common area often scuffed by individuals entering and exiting vehicles is the door kick. These are the lower portions of the interior door panel. One product available from TESBROS protects all four door kicks of your Tesla. We recently reviewed it and shared multiple installation tips in this video

If you love your Tesla, chances are you are also into technology. Newer tech is normally great, but sometimes it can be annoying to adopt newer standards. When what you have works well, but you are forced to update the hardware, this can be irritating. In the newer Tesla models, they have moved to type C USB connectors in the center console. If you have an older USB stick, SSD, or game controller that uses a USB type A connector, you could not use them.

Sometimes life can seem like an unorganized mess. If our Tesla gets to that point, we know it is necessary to step up and clean out our vehicle. Once you start cleaning and organizing your things, your attitude magically improves. A simple, yet clever storage solution for your Tesla could be a product to help you organize.

Everyone has different standards when it comes to cleaning and storage, not only in our house, but in our Tesla’s as well. If you love your Tesla like we do, then you want to protect it and have it as nice looking as possible. However, life happens as they say. There exist many floor mats, frunk protectors, and trunk mats as well, but if you fold down the second row in your Tesla, the seat back could become stained or ruined. Maybe you have a pet who wants to roam back there or you just haul a lot of things.

There are two things most Telsa owners love: their vehicle and personalizing it to reflect their unique lifestyle. Some individuals are very overt with their customizations, such as colorful wraps or custom paint jobs. Others may put on aftermarket wheels or other trim pieces like side skirts, spoilers, and so on. What about those of you who want some unique touches, but don’t want to change the stock nature of your Tesla?

Oh, the Tesla Supercharger stops. Some of us need to do them regularly, while others only visit when we take a road trip. What do you do when your Tesla is charging? Are you one of those people who talks to others or do you stay in the vehicle and play games or watch videos? The great characteristic of the Tesla community is that all of these choices are welcome.

If you have a home charger, you know how convenient it is to simply plug in your Tesla at night, and in the morning you have almost a full tank. I say almost a full tank because most of us limit the charging to 80% or so. Depending on your home, it is likely that the wall charger will be mounted on a wall closer to where your electrical panel is. When I had the charger installed in my home, this is what we did.

People love to store things. I’m often amazed how many shows there are on storage, hoarding, closet organizing, and so on. Our Teslas have numerous places to keep items, but not all of them are easily accessible. When we are on the road, it’s desirable to have access and storage to support our busy lives. The organization Tesla Shields has introduced a product that adds storage in the form of an under-seat storage box for the Model Y. This is a great use of space that is otherwise not used. Recently, I reviewed their under-seat product.

Everyone I know who owns a Tesla loves it. That doesn’t mean the vehicles are flawless or that the company is perfect. Occasionally, Tesla will modify the vehicles in production. Sometimes this is great, such as adding LED headlights or upgraded processors to drive the display. On other occasions, Tesla has removed features.
