    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    From most perspectives, the difference between an inventory car produced on June 1 and another produced September 1 is minimal, while the difference between September 1 and October 1 is substantial. On September 1, I would have taken an inventory car produced in the last year. On October 1, I...

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    That's my bad, apologies to dsm. I searched the thread for "fixed", and "changed", but not for "updated". In my defense, the most recent poster to mention it said they didn't know who did it. And then DSM did post that it was done, which made it sound like that was the first time it was...

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    Edit: Oops, didn't remember the post from earlier in the thread, and suggested that dsm did not previously mention this, which he did. Sorry to DSM. See subsequent posts for my suitable chastisement.

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    You are again missing the point entirely. He was under the impression that he would receive the same inventory car as if he had ordered a production that day. That is not the case. He is upset by that, as many people are. - - - Updated - - - I mean, he felt like he was lied to, or at least...

    Random Model S sightings

    It's got to have temp tags to count as "the wild".

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    So why are you commenting, if you weren't there either? Given his report, and my experiences, I was stating the conclusion I drew. Obviously I wasn't there. No reason to be mean about it. - - - Updated - - - Bonnie, read this thread, and honestly tell me there weren't 10 people jumping up...

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    Question for the group: Is it the goal of TMC to drive away any posters who criticize Tesla in any way? Are we only allowed to post how great they are, and not mention the negatives? There's been a nasty trend peaking over the past week to highly criticize any opinion that goes against the...

    Salespeople Misinformed About My Inventory Model S Purchase

    My delivery was 9/23, and it did not have the same hardware. I assume deliveries to the midwest and Texas throught ~9/26 and possibly the east coast through 9/30 all had the old hardware, given that they were built before 9/19. I feel your pain, this is very frustrating, since you easily...

    Random Model S sightings

    Not a sighting technically, but worth noting... At the Secretary of State's office for Collin Country, TX (in Plano) I was getting my plates yesterday afternoon (Oct 13), and the lady at the counter said I was her second Tesla that day. Given there were 6 people working the counter, and other...

    Autopilot and Speeding

    The good news in the long term is that as auto-pilot functionality becomes the norm, you will start to have things like auto-pilot lanes, where previously there were HOV lanes. The speed limits in these lanes will likely be higher, since safety is much less of a concern with those cars...

    What Color and Options for the best resale value after one year?

    FWIW, about half the people who see my car think it's black. In the right light, the blue is amazing, but at night, or in very bright sunlight, an impartial observer would not know it wasn't black. So the resale difference between black and blue may be a moot point.

    Delivery estimate chaos

    This is highly unrealistic. People who place orders is very different times during the quarter all received their deliveries at the end of September. Requesting specific delivery dates, or even basic information about delivery status was not possible. The only POSSIBLE way one might do this...

    That's got to be a fun assignment. Where do they do the repairs?

    Firmware 6.0

    Does anyone else not have 6.0 yet? At 2,000 a day, it seems like it should hit all the cars at this point, but I'm still on 5.

    Model S nicknames (based on design)

    This is a good idea, I don't know why this thread has seen such little action. Another user posted the nickname "Strawberry" (Red with Black interior) For mine I like "Midnight Blue" (Blue with Black interior)
