    Titan7 Wheels Group Buy Model S/X

    Looking to see what new wheels options are available too for the new MS. I’m less about performance ride and prefer more confident and comfortable handling instead. If there are wheel designs that will enhance the current 19” factory wheels, then I’m down to get a new set. Also, ability to keep...

    Looking for thoughts on Model S LR (refresh) vs. M3P

    I think the criticism on the yoke steering is overblown. Yes, it does take time to learn new muscle memory. For me, not having to use the turn signal stalk is wonderful! I have been dealing with various wrist and hand issues (trigger finger, tendonitis etc.), so the less force needed, the...

    Looking for thoughts on Model S LR (refresh) vs. M3P

    I just sold my '20 MY and took delivery of the '21 LR MS last week. I will say MS is night and day better. Of course, you pay the price to get all the creature comforts. Even though the MS is the LR version and delivers 3.1 sec 0-60, the acceleration is incredible. The car is confident and pose...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Gee… You know that first time I saw a MS Plaid it was 2 months ago and sitting in front of a Tesla store in CA (available for sale). That’s when I started to contemplate getting a MS and struck up a conversation with my SA. So, for me, it seemed that the inventory isn’t super constrained. Not...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Actually, I got my MS less than a month after ordering it. Ordered 9/28 and delivered on 10/13. As for trade-in’s, the prices are very decent on used cars right now. Just wait till you receive EDD and go get a quote from CarMax. Tesla always low ball you on trade-in’s.

    Accessories for 2021 Refresh Model S Plaid/LR

    +1. I was burned by RPM Tesla as well. Poor, poor quality products. I bought white center console covers to try to cover the piano black finish for my MY. Wow! When I saw the actual white covers I was shocked at what a joke it was. And into the trash bin it went. Yup, vinyl logo was a joke too...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I had a SA that I worked with. A couple months ago, I was using the supercharger where the Tesla store was located. While waiting for my MY to charge, I saw a Plaid MS sitting outside of the store. Of course, I jumped out of my car to check it out. I struck a conversation with the SA and said I...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I see you added my MS to your spreadsheet - row 42 (Napa, CA). I submitted a form to update order date and RN#. My original EDD is around Dec/Jan. But the dates were only posted for a few days and disappeared from my order status page. Anyway, I picked up the MS this past Wednesday, 10/13.

    2021 Refreshed Model S - Accessory Suggestions/Recommendations?

    Hi, I've been going to the Tesla store and some of the aftermarket Tesla vendors. I haven't had much luck finding interesting accessories to the refreshed MS. Reaching out to the community for recommendations. Thus far, I've purchased the screen protectors for front and rear from...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    It’s actually vegan leather framing the door cup holder on the outside. The inside of the cup holder area (just the opposite side) is actually, alcantara. Impressive… the whole area is soft to the touch. Even the bottom area of the cup holder has some give to it. The only firm plastic is the...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Hopefully, the end is near. It will be an early Christmas gift! You will love the MS. It’s such a huge change from the previous gen MS. I’m sure Tesla will want to close out this year with an amazing final quarter. Good luck!

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I totally understand. I was just very lucky. I worked with a SR that worked hard monitoring the inventory availability. I know you’re passionate about Teslas. I had a 2018 MX, then 2020 MY. Also, I have a Cybertruck reservation too. I’ll send my good luck your way to share. Maybe things are...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Well, turns out my MS LR was in perfect order. I inspected closely, no paint issues, no backseat wrinkle issues, no misalignment of door handles…. Here are some snapshots from the delivery center today. I’m really happy with my experience!
