Pretty sure I got only one temp tag

OK, thanks for the info. As long as Tesla provides the forms, etc, then that all seems fine. I wish the SAs at Tesla would have explained or even mentioned this. FWIW, this sounds a lot like buying a used car from a private party (at least the registration/tax part). I guess if I do not get...

For Texas, are we expected to get our brand new Tesla an official TX inspection once we take delivery? Do we need this for the 1-year registration? I took delivery 12/29, and I was expecting to have Tesla handle the registration for me, but I am actually not sure...

My old car loan account got updated and shows a payment on 01/04, so all is well.

I recently traded in my 2018 Volvo XC90 for a model Y, and the experience was good. In fact Tesla offered $41,500, 1.5K more than the local Volvo dealership where I bought the XC90. Three years ago when I bought that XC90, we were also considering a new model X, and the person at Tesla...

For those of you who have traded in a vehicle when purchasing your model Y (or I guess any other model), how long did it take for Tesla to pay your lien-holder of your trade-in vehicle? I took delivery on December 29th. Just wondering how long this might take, as it's usually immediate with...

Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant

I picked up my MYP in NW Austin today and went well. Not much to report except I can't get the driver side mirror to adjust outward as much as I would like (and to actually be useful in showing your blind spot). It is as if the range of adjustment is either having it reflect straight back, or...

Picked my white one black performance today. Tesla was ready to do contactless delivery about 5 hours ahead of schedule, so I took advantage of that. This was in the northwest Austin, TX location. 100% contactless with no paper signing, etc. I probably did not do as thorough inspection as...

Does your phone app actually show info for your car already? Mine shows nothing at all. My original delivery date was today, but has been pushed to 29th.

My delivery date was supposed to be today, but has been pushed back to 12/29, as the car has not arrived. I guess the truck driver did not want to work over Christmas. Might get to pick it up earlier if the car arrives earlier. This is for Austin, TX.

For Carolina Community FCU, my total time from initial contact to funds wired was about 14 days. Given all the paperwork was actual physical paper, I am quite happy with this. Some of this time was also waiting on Tesla to provide MVPA. Rate was 1.99 for 84 months. I’ll be looking into home...

My delivery has been moved up to December 26. I’m signing some paperwork for my trade-in right now, and hopefully they get that back in time.

I'm scheduled to pick up mine 12/28 (white on black performance), at I assume the service center in Austin, which is very close to me. I have to say the process of ordering could use a lot of improvement. I've never really liked the standard dealership experience, but the Tesla experience so...

I think $199 would only make sense (to me) if it came with full vehicle insurance, which IMO is something they should be able to do with FSD. Personally, I am thrilled I did not spend $10k up front. And based on resale values, FSD is worth at best a couple thousand dollars. If FSD was...
