So the Model X now gets another $7500 (EV tax credit) off? Would make it cheaper than the S...

Just watched the Youtube video below discussing 8 more possible Model 3 Highland upgrades in addition to the 6 we already know about: Ambient RGB interior lighting Ventilated seats Rear infotainment screen New headlights/taillights Hardware 4 Drive by wire steering The other 8 are: Hatchback...

DO NOT forget to top off the windshield washer fluid! Seriously though, I owned a 2018 S75D for 3 years from new, all I ever did was refill that fluid myself. The car only saw the Tesla store twice - when we picked her up brand new, and when we dropped her off at lease end.

TL;DR: To me, "luxury" simply means ease and convenience. In the not-too-distant past it used to mean steering with your fingertips rather than having to manually crank the wheel with both hands, gliding the windows up and down at the touch of a button, a high fidelity stereo with multiple...

to the best of my memory the residual was in the neighborhood of $69,000 so what you say makes sense.

Yeah I guess we can pick which spot in time most closely supports our individual positions, but how about inflation adjusted dollars? There's gotta be a difference in dollar values between 2018 and now. BTW, I leased the 2018 and back then Tesla gave no concessions towards reduced lease payments.

Whoa, only $89.99K? That's almost as low as I paid about five years ago for my 2018 S 75D, or about $84K. Whatta deal today, especially not even "adjusted for inflation" 😆

Hey I just saw your reply to my later post, so we MUST be correct! Right on brother! *HighFive*

Were there mirage "reflections" on the roadway further up the road? That is the only time we get phantom braking, no other times at all whatsoever (we have a 2023 MYLR w/o radar).

Had phantom braking (PB) on my 2018 Model S w/radar, mostly freeway overpasses and other situations where the cause was somewhat discernible, but with the new Model Y (without radar) the only, and I mean Only, PB incidents were when road tripping. On a dark desert highway (yes I like my Eagles...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Tesla may be kinda Osborne-ing themselves into a corner slightly with all the recent leaks and announcements about upcoming radar, higher resolution cameras (validated by some photos online here and there) plus the missing Steam gameplay software capability...

Bummer! Perhaps a difference in configs between yours and ours maybe? Best of luck and I wish you speedy delivery soon!!

We actually took delivery on Feb. 8! Did not post about it here as it would be the 5th Tesla in the fam by now and new deliveries have kinda lost their appeal (yeah yeah I know, first world issues), thus the whole fam does not drive out to watch new deliveries any more, ha ha!😆

No idea, they arrived in the morning, I went back inside for coffee and breakfast and they knocked on the door later to tell me it was done. I woulda snapped a pic but we sold that house in late 2021.
