I am no help here but love your Telsa collection! Shocked how in your photo the 3 and the CT look to be similar in size (wide angle distortion I assume) but I have always written off the CT as not able to fit inside my garage. Back to your question: I definitely think you will find the 24...

Best selling vehicle in 2023 worldwide. Not just the best selling EV or for it's size, much higher than the next vehicles Toyota Rav4 and Toyota Corollas (non-EVs of course) 1.23 Million sold in 2023 Worldwide. Yes, they are everywhere. S and X are niche high end cars that will always sell a...

Really depends on what your priority is. Range, Grip, Bad Weather, Sound, Tread Life I replaced the Michelin Primacy with the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires and observed: Much improved grip, better in bad weather and superior tire / tread life I got worse range by 5% or so Think sound...

I don't believe that you or I have gone to the back of the line. Not sure the website ordering system is smart enough to recognize which configs in terms of exterior color, interior color, 5 or 7, tow hitch are going to fine with a June delivery if ordered today vs. not be. Sucks and I am in...

In US they are about equal in terms of inventory BUT doesn't the Model Y sell at least 2x the 3 ; maybe 3x the 3 in terms of yearly volume? So there should be double the amount of Y's in Canada inventory as 3's that sounds like nothing unusual. Is a personal decision, one might be able to get a...

Just to update the thread and in case anyone else runs into something like this. Turns out in my case it was not a loan app through multiple banks ; but something more nefarious. Received 2 more bank letters also not approving the applications but asking for either Income information or similar...

Congrats! Since you ordered 5/11 you may have gotten one from the initial batch they painted in Quick Silver.

Very likely you have until at least the rest of this calendar year to decide, they should still be making them in the US the rest of this year.

Ok good to know ; the original score was based on what was written in the letter from one of the banks I got at the house so I assume accurate at that time. The new lowered score is from one of the free credit card provided tools so more an approximate number I understand. Excellent news that...

I don't want this to come across as accusatorily ; just asking if anyone else experienced something similar. Mid May I purchased a Y, applied and was approved for Telsa's .99% financing ; Santander is the bank. Only took a couple minutes for the approval and I accepted the terms right away...

I think someone up the thread predicted that coming a few days ago :) Is only 1.99% at 36 months though Goes to 4.99% it looks like at longer terms

Would be curious his opinions on how successful the .99% financing promotion was for the Y model. Seems to have taken quite a bite out of existing inventory levels for that model and also created a bunch of new orders for cars to be made and delivered this month+ I think they will get very...

They had one sitting in Providence, RI for a over a week (MYP with white seats) ; not sure why they did not assign that to you was not that far away? Sold this Tuesday 6/4 ; I had been watching it and inspected it in person. Looked amazing with the white seats BTW. My wife is not sold I...

I would assume you are correct. Mine was shipped directly to me from China ; I would guess this product and many of these Telsa accessories we are often buying through a distributor type model and the place we buy it from just has the Chinese factory fulfill the order. It arrived to me...

Zero Chinese made Telsa's go to the USA to my knowledge. Competition is fierce in China with lower cost alternatives to Tesla ; in the US those same Chinese brand EV's are heavily tariffed or banned so Telsa does not have the same level of price competition here. The .99% offer in the US...

Bought one before I have my Y ; so cannot say but also interested. Below is a brand new video from a fellow forum member Jae the Dev who just took delivery of a 2024 MYP ; seems like the install and use was similar if that identical for his car compared with this previous ; but likely can...

It sounds like the RWD Y's are awaiting some sort of EPA verification of the changed/increased range and Telsa cannot deliver them until that is done.

Yes, I demo drove a Highland Model 3 AWD LR and took my daughter along to see. Backseat passenger can watch YouTube / Netflix while car is driving using the car's interior premium connectivity. No sound lag ; sound was out of the main car's speakers. Video did not play on main front screen of...

Nice! Seems the white interior MYP's are a little easier to get than the Black interior ones I am still in waiting for VIN limbo. EDD moved back to June 16-30 I worry it will keep getting pushed back ; would be very happy if I can take delivery by June 30th

What clearly happened here... Telsa is no longer making the silver Gemini wheels ; they have replaced them with the darker version of the same wheel. Both the inside rim and the wheel covers are the darker color now. Same as they have had in China for the past 6 months or more. The range...

Don't disagree that the Model 3P really has set an amazing bar for it's price point. My practical side is telling me I don't need or even have a use case for that level of performance as long as the MYP can give me enough performance to satisfy me than it's added utility and space will be more...

Just poking fun ; but in all seriousness the highways around me in MA can get some aggressive drivers and just to not be a road hazard you often need to at least maintain 70. I believe in the only drive in the left lane when passing or going at go directly to jail speeds as they practice in...

Well those ICE cars certainly don't lose 25% of range sitting at 75 - 80 on the highway. Mostly have owned 6 cylinder ICE and some of those I think do a little better at the higher speeds proportionately to their rated mileage than smaller less powered cars do but yes I agree your personal...

Helpful data. Is good for any prospective buyers to be aware of. So many of the negatives of the electric cars are blown out of proportion but the lack of efficiency at normal highway speeds is one that actually gets very little mention and as an owner one I find significant. Who drives 65 or...

I believe if you do it yourself through the app ; on your order screen showing the new car. You should see an i: Earlier Pickup Available If you do it that way my understanding is the .99% will stick with your purchase. If you do it any other way via the app or website it will not...

Ordered the MYP ; just waiting on a VIN (couple weeks now so hopefully soon) This weekend I went to a SC as they had great selection and did a demo drive again of the MYP and a 24 model 3 AWD. Cannot test drive the M3P anywhere. Brought the family along this time so back seat room could be...

Not to make this potentially even costlier for the insurance company ; but does an owner have any right to a diminished value claim in situations like this as the car will have an accident reported which could negatively affect the resale value. I have heard of this but never actually been in...

I believe 15 is the default Telsa uses on their paperwork. Your actual vehicle may have 0, 2, 4, 15, 20, etc... Does not matter it is still new

My understanding is the financing offer was valid for 60 days starting when confirmed in the app. After 60 days I heard from others that they honor the same rate but you would have to reapply for credit again Since that has not come and gone yet for anyone ; I would not consider that a...

Yeah from a state's prospective it is quite complicated and I can see both sides. The concerns on funding roads and jobs/business affected when EV's take over are real. Main reason I decided to purchase a Y this year instead of waiting till next year which was my original plan is I am not...

Definitely true HondaConvert but don't think it has to do with Musk and his polarizing views BUT 100% has to do with huge money spent by the big automakers and the lobbyists they employ. They hate that Telsa sells direct instead of through the long established dealer model which is why they...

Welcome to the club! Many Tesla centers are absolutely madhouses at end of quarter or in this case near end of a promotion. Also I have noticed Telsa older locations were very small as they did not need much space/parking spots and never had much inventory. Many of these locations are still in...

No doubt Rain will cause a hit. May have been more than just that in your case could have had Rain + any number of Wind, Elevation Gain, more use of climate/defogging, higher highway speeds, etc... Is no doubt an unfortunate aspect of owning an EV. I consider it more as an inconvenience to...

Hope it went smoothly ; did they ever explain what the hold up was? Still awaiting my vin ; a center by me just received an unsold MYP in QS with white interior. Spent a little time checking it out yesterday and it did not disappoint. Would switch to that in a heartbeat but the State EV...

I know the reason ; I just think it has caused a huge sales disincentive that has to show up in the numbers. $7500 is not a trivial amount ; especially now that is it applied at point of purchase as a down payment basically. Of course not all buyers qualify but a good percentage of potential...

One would logically assume Telsa would not be BUT fact is they have done the exact same thing since early 2019 ; so over a 5 year history of this. End of quarter sales push (to make deliveries in that same quarter) are now just a fact of life. The only unpredictability is what exact...

Terms were very clear that the promotional rate was for orders placed by X date not delivery taken by X date. Assuming you went through some of the pre-delivery steps like registration, financing application and terms acceptance you should be locked in. Once the 30 day / 60 day windows pass and...

I think a huge screw up by Tesla that the Model 3 RWD and LR do not qualify for the Federal Tax incentive. If purchasing one and you meet the qualifications you would be crazy not to wait (or lease or buy a P model) ; as that will be corrected at some point in the future I believe. Personally...

Would leave it overnight charging. Hope it works out for the best! Is an interesting / cool story for us in the forum without the personal attachment aspect as to why one lets a car sit for 2 full years.

This offer has no doubt been successful and put a serious dent into Telsa's Y inventory - which was at a very high level and caused Telsa to get creative at ways to reduce it. The .99 seemed to work well for it's goal. I think many on forums like this underestimate how many people are in not...

Telsa service center probably replaces always instead of patching/plugging. If your tires have some wear, you may need more than 1 new tire so could get even more expensive. You can try soapy water at home to see if you can spot any bubbling at the leak source, maybe a nail or screw type...

Hopeful a 2024 owner could share some knowledge. I like the fact the 2024 model has a rear screen for kids but a few things are not clear to me on how much functionality there actually is. Assuming one has premium connectivity in the car and no other device/wifi hotspot. Can the back seat use...

Having a full tank every morning is something I could never now give up and go back to a gas car. I keep my car plugged in at home so never have a worry. Waited until 2019 to buy an electric car as everything prior to Telsa lacked the range for my daily commute. I knew going in 5 years back...

Worst case you may lose $250 ; by switching to a different car later. Best case they waive the fee ; which I think is automatic if you don't have a VIN assigned yet. But ordering today ; your car could be ready in less than 1 week for all you know as there may be a matching config local...

I own a dual motor with the Boost and have driven quite a few Performance model 3's along with driving mine prior to boost for a stretch. From what I have seen and also observed you can feel the power difference throughout the range compared to one without the Boost ; at least till 90 or so MPH...

No way to know if the main battery will still work/charge or not after sitting for so long. Trying to charge it surely won't do any additional harm but as you stated you would need to replace the car's 12v battery before you could even try to do anything else.

My order updated ; still no VIN but now shows an estimated delivery of 6/8 - 6/22 Progress I guess.... but I am not sure the date window is anything more than a guess at this point.

Sounds like a fortunate situation for this buyer that in the exact config they want they have 10 of the same vehicle already made sitting in a lot near to him. In this case I am sure he did not ask and just spent an hour of his time inspecting them and then plans on telling Telsa exactly which...

To those not waiting on a Performance model ; I saw today a bunch of inventory AWD LR cars around the country in Quick Silver color but with the new Dark Gemini wheels. Definitely worth a look.

The speed in which you will get assigned a VIN is 100% dependent on them having a matching car to your config. already made or not. There may be one local to you so then you could get a VIN very quickly ; there could be one made not yet sent anywhere, planned to be sent to your area or in a...
