    HPWC ceiling mount with boom for cabling

    thanks for the replies! I have a few idea that I think will work great. I like the idea od the spring to hold the handle. I'll post back with what I choose/come up with. I hadn't considered the reset button being 14' in the air so that was a good catch.

    HPWC ceiling mount with boom for cabling

    I am considering mounting the HPWC on the ceiling between two of my (4) garage spaces (professional electrician, conduit, etc) and trying to use a boom mount. so I can rotate the charging plug between the two spaces. Has anyone done something like this? I was thinking of trying to use a car wash...

    Onyx Wheels scheduled for March 24th-31st delivery

    I am also scheduled 3/24-3/31 and I am VIN 038X. Cautiously optimistic.

    Considering Switching Delivery to Factory Pickup

    maybe factor in the miles on the car from the roadtrip? but you could always put that in the "cost of a CA vacation" as well.

    Black Onyx Wheels

    I would blame the OP and possibly yourself before Tesla. There was just no business sense in a $5k item holding up a $140k order; factor in the delivery data needed for public reporting and it would make sense for TSLA to powder coat the rims locally. (maybe the reason for the color name change?)

    Hey Elon- Can you tell us a little but more about when cars will arrive?

    Gotcha. It is really fighting Warren Buffett/Mid American than fighting NV per se.

    Model X Delivery Update

    Makes me think of a plane departure delay b/c of mechanical issues. I don't mind waiting. I would rather not fall out of the sky, just as I would rather not have a car I am crestfallen with.

    Black Onyx Wheels

    No, not that I am aware. Again, I am not too worried about it as there are not a lot of other X's in pre-production. It just doesn't make sense to me to have something silly like rims hold up production, opposed to deliveries. If there were quite a few X's in production, I would be able to get...

    No VINs issued in 4 weeks. What's up?

    Has this really been validated? Maybe so, but I think dates given on a configuration on the website is not really validation. It is hard for me to imagine Tesla holding up a much needed $140K sale over $4K of rims. My own thought is if rims were really going to delay an order I would make the...

    Black Onyx Wheels

    I have had a VIN for some time. 12/-5-ish. Vin in high 300's a day have onyx configured. I'm not completely sold on the onyx wheels being a slow down, but maybe. I would be less skeptical if I were seeing a higher rate of deliveries

    Black Onyx Wheels

    I am a little surprised they don't roll these out with silver wheels and a Due Bill for the Onyx. Why wait to book the sale over rims? I will ask my DS if that is possible.

    How many people ordered P90D w/ black Onix wheel did not get a vin yet?

    I confirmed a P90DL w/ Black wheels on 12/5 and got a VIN 12/16 VIN in mid 300's.

    Production Model X Deliveries

    I am not convinced. I have a P90DL with black wheels and have had a VIN in the high 300's almost immediately after I confirmed on 12/5. Of course, no delivery, but in the absence of any known production deliveries I don't see it as significant. It will be here when it is here. : )

    Production VIN 25x on its way to Florida

    Is this actually verified somewhere or just rumor?
