Am I missing something? Yes, Tesla will handle all the paperwork with the tax credit, but not everyone will still qualify, right? If you get audited later on, you're still screwed, right? Also, with the $4K tax credit, doesn't the car have to be less than $25K?

Wanted to see if I can get some help. Looking to possibly buy a refreshed '22 or '23 Model S. Do you guys know what the length is between the 2 crossbars? I currently have a MYP with the Tesla crossbars and it perfectly fits my Yakima Skybox NX18, which has a 24-40 in. adjustable crossbar...

I get the frustration with the brakes. I'd be the same way. I don't get why so many complain about price decreases in general. Yah it sucks, but it also sucked for people who got their cars last December before the MASSIVE price decrease in January. Elon's dropped/changed prices what like 3-4x...

I don't agree or disagree with you. You're absolutely entitled to your opinions which I respect. But my intent in starting this post was just to get people's opinions on the features and UX of the 2 car models.

@SwedishAdvocate you absolutely have every right to talk about anything you want to, but why not start a new thread on that then? and if people want to chime in there, there's a specific place for that then. title header on this is "lucid air vs model s", no?

Yup, saw the new price drops as well as adding in the SS and DD Pro for free pretty much. I still have my reservation with them; might wait for further price drops as I agree with you, I don't think these will move the needle too much.

I think it also depend on where the listing is from. I'm from SoCal and saw a Plaid listed for $80K without FSD. That said, I don't think people are willing to pay much for FSD.

messaged you earlier. Let me know if interested. Thx.

It's all subjective, but IMO he's a better leader than Elon. I think Elon is brilliant and a visionary, but his ego is too much to handle.

I gotta admit, have these conversations in this forum with you folks is much more reasonable than in the Lucid forums. There still seems to be too many die-hard Lucid owners that just want to continue bashing Tesla. The way I see it, when you bash on someone, that's mean you're probably envious...

Yup, saw that article on the AM partnership earlier this morning. That's good news for Lucid. I'm actually less concerned if they're run out of money or not. The fact that PIF owns them 60% (probably 100% one day), coupled with Rawlinson/Lucid not wanting to partner with Tesla on NACS, not sure...

Yah that's truly my BIGGEST concern. I'm also on the Lucid forum, and as you can imagine, most there think it's the greatest car, bashes on Tesla, and have no doubt the company will be around in the long haul. Either they know something I don't or I want to be having whatever they're smoking.

SUPER helpful. I really like my Tesla, but I also like the Pure that's on order (from my test drive and what I've read). One thing I do like with the Telsa is all the functionalities with the app. My wife's Audi app is just straight up pathetic and pretty much non-existent. If Lucid has even...

Thanks for everyone's feedback. Yah, I really wish Lucid has Sentry mode, but hopefully that can be a relatively easy OTA update. Do you know if there's the ability to control temperature, view GPS location, etc. all through the app like Telsa? Also, as JimmyB stated, there's not an option to...

Also worth nothing that the e-tron is HEAVY, like a tank (and I don't mean in a good way). My wife likes it so I guess that's all that matters. But coming from a MY, I'm also wondering if the Pure will feel "heavy."

Just reviving this post as I have a Pure on order. For the Lucid owners, how is the mobile app and UX (compared to Tesla)? My wife has an e-tron, and while the drive is absolutely wonderful, the mobile app and UX is absolutely horrendous. Thanks.

Can anyone provide some guidance/recommendation on what roof rack/cross bar people are using for their MY? The OEM Tesla one? Or some 3rd party (Thule/Yakima)? I'm looking to buy a Thule or Yakima rooftop carrier so wanted to see my options in terms of pricing, how well it works, etc. Another...

I drove my '20 MYLR for 2 years, then recently switched to the '22 MYP. Been driving that for 1.5 months now. Keep in mind I was lucky to get the Michelin A/S, but the ride quality was indeed much better than the LR. I was expecting it to be worse (from what I read), but I definitely noticed an...

Yes beautiful car. And it's obviously you took great care of that car. Low mileage also considering it's a 2018. But I would agree with Kairide, it's hard to get your money back with all your aftermarket enhancements. In any case, good luck with the sale of your car!

good thing you pressed harder. glad you didn't get scammed.

I don't know anything about this dealership you're mentioning. I do know fraudster will go through hurdles to make you think it's a legit business. Personally, I wouldn't hand over my car to anyone until all liens are paid off and/or checks are 100% cleared and funds are in the account (unless...

My bad. I didn't see the white interior part.

Isn't the current pricing $69,990 (not $70,990)? Also, just confirming that whoever buys this reservation from you for $2,500 won't get their money back if Tesla cancels the order completely?

I did. With the Intel, when I reversed and the backup camera popped up, sometimes I would notice a lag with the camera motion. Same when I used Youtube and streaming some videos for the kids. With the AMD, no lag and/or shorter buffer time. Keep in mind, I've only had my car for 3 weeks, but...

maybe today's price hikes across most models helped.....?

agreed 100%. everyone thinks their car is "like new" or "immaculate condition." also love when people see 1 or 2 "listing" price at some insane amount, and all of a sudden they think they can sell it for the same or more. i sold my '20 MYLR with 13K miles to bidlane for $62,800 3 weeks ago. i...

Check with your SA to be safe. I just uploaded my current policy and that sufficed when I took delivery. That said, you'll want to obviously add the new car to the policy for yourself when you drive it off the lot.

let's take working out. everywhere i've read (and adding to FatherTo1's post), HIIT workouts are better because you burn more calories in a shorter amount of time. so if i do internal sprints for a quarter of a mile vs just casually walking the same distance, you're saying the body uses the same...

times like this, i wished i had paid more attention or not ditch physics in school. i think someone needs to send this to elon and have him decide once and for all!

I don't pretend to be an expert in physics, but according to ZenRockGarden, how fast you accelearate has no impact on energy or efficiency? Maybe I'm just misunderstanding his post. So someone who guns it everytime vs someone who slowly steps on the pedal, but both using the same amount of regen...

You say "sold vehicle to 3rd party. (This is a breach)." They haven't delivered it to you yet. You weren't assigned a VIN. You never signed final papers. Or did you? Using your logic, you should have been entitled to a vehicle one hour, one day, or one week after you submitted your order...

Sales advisors will tell you whatever they need to tell you to get you off the phone. :)

Same here. My '20 MYLR starts with 5YJY.

I read in another post (I'm trying to find it) it doesn't matter how fast you accelerate as long as you maximize your regen braking. So basically going from 0-30 in 2 seconds versus 4 seconds as long as you use your regen brakes to get to a complete stop has no effect on Wh/mi? Is that true? I...

Picked up my MYP last week. It came with Michelin A/S. Ironically, there were 2 other MYP next to me and both were with the P-Zero Summer tires. Both owners asked how I get the A/S. I told them no idea, luck of the draw I guess.....

I sold my '20 LR last week and replaced it with the '22 P. Both were linked to my Tesla account. Once the original car was removed from my Tesla app and the new one got added, STATS automatically started tracking the new car. I didn't have to do anything. Not sure how it works if 2 cars are...

from my experience, the trade-in emails/texts are kinda meaningless and aren't a good indication of when you'll receive your VIN. (i was asked about trade-in back in late march, then again last week AFTER i got my VIN). i think the biggest clue is the shortening of the EDD. my EDD was 30 days...

So as a quick follow-up to my original post, I drove another 135 miles today (combination of local and freeway)....ran a few errands, took my kids to some play dates, etc....typical everyday weekend stuff. In my old LR, I averaged 309 Wh/mi. Today, I averaged 336 Wh/mi. Worth noting I did gun...

I don't think anyone really knows the accuracy of delivery windows. My delivery window was 6/13-6/17 and I picked up the car yesterday. I think it's a combination of delivery location, EOQ push, what cars Fremont is making, how many folks are delaying delivery, etc. I'm no expert nor do I...

Love the grey. My original MYLR was also grey. My wife kinda joke and say I got the exact same car...just faster. I considered the black, but I'm too lazy to keep my car clean.

Oh that’s what you meant. Yah when I was assigned my VIN earlier this week, they said her “birthday” was 5/10. :)

I didn’t really ask about VIN assignment or sequencing. Honestly I don’t think those guys would know anyways. They’re just there to get you in and out as fast as possible.

Not strict at all. My appt was 1:30pm and I got there at 1. Checked in, signed a few final papers, they told me which spot my car was at, had my car sync to my phone, and I was done. :)

Can’t really say too much now since I haven’t had too much time with it, but give me 2-3 weeks and I’ll provide my honest feedbacks. :)

Some pics…..

Oh and I’m sure everyone knows this also, but yes, it came with the standard charger in the black tesla carrying bag/case in the trunk. :)

It’s still the same older style. I’ll try and take some pictures and will post it tmr.

cabin noise and ride quality was totally fine. if anything, i feel like it's better than my '20 MYLR. here's the full scoop on my impressions after day 1. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/myp-initial-impressions-vs-20-mylr.268177/#post-6747799 hope it helps. everyone's experience will...

440. Good luck with delivery!

OD: 3/9 MYP EDD: 6/3-6/17 (as of early May) Assigned VIN: 5/25 (F440) Picked up: 5/28 Delivery: Seemless transaction. Was in and out in 15 minutes, of which 2 minutes was finding and using the restroom. Keep in mind this is my 2nd MY. First was 2020 MYLR (one of the 1st 1,500 VINs). Built...
