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...

You should be able to replace the $4200 with $0 and proceed with your application. That is what I did if you have the Federal $7500 incentive it gets applied as a partial down payment and the rest goes to your sales tax / payment at signing. Have you already placed the order and doing the...

Stinks with the hard end date. I obviously felt the color is worth the $2K upcharge but if it means costing even more than think switching as late as you can to an inventory choice is wise. I think I can hold out until end of June latest. If I don't get it by near end of month then would look...

I forget the exact name of the setting but in car you can select in the Software settings Advanced to get releases of the newest software quicker. The default setting is likely Standard. Not sure if that will speed up your first software update after delivery but is worth a shot!
