IDK about the manual but regarding the efficacy of rain-x in general, you don't know what the hell you are talking about. I see you are in New Hampshire, so maybe that explains it. In South Florida, rain isn't some annoying mist or light droplets like in New England. It is often a torrential...

The biggest improvement I had was simply adding Rain-X to my washer fluid. Auto-wipers went from total garbage to basically perfect overnight. I think if the water can spread out and form a film over the entire windshield (including the cameras) so the system has trouble detecting the raindrops...

That theory falls apart entirely when you account for the fact that most of the money paid for FSD has NOT been spent. It's been banked since the features aren't available yet. Tesla has a huge incentive to deploy self-driving tech. But is the world ready?. It's more likely that FSD is working...

I've yet to encounter phantom braking with overpasses on I-95 in South Florida. I've watched closely as I was expecting it given the reports. Seems to hold true in varying lighting conditions, with the shadow very dark directly underneath to situations where it is projected out a ways. I wonder...

After taxes/fees you're probably getting a performance for the same price I paid for my LR RWD (inc. paint + 20' wheels). That seems like a great deal for a car that is destroying BMW M3s and the like. You can probably raise the suspension afterwards but I'm not a car guy so can't advise on the...

What does everyone recommend for a fresh installation of a high voltage charging outlet in a garage? I intend to use the mobile charger for the time being, although may upgrade to the Wall Connector later. The charging capacity of the 14-50 and 6-50 seem to be identical. Is there a reason to...

Absolutely. That's a feature that I use every day on my current car and I have been looking forward to the GPS functionality. It was part of the deal when I bought the car.

I was told today that my build date was 6/10. VIN 337xxx. He didn't expect Homelink to be installed based on that, but lots of people in the Homelink thread seem to be getting it if they ordered before 5/31. Tentative delivery is 6/21 so I'll update on Homelink and HW3 status then. Sales...

Delivery scheduled for 6/21 :)

**** it takes that long? I guess I'd better order it... EDIT: This forum has a swear filter? Are we expecting a lot of kids to order Teslas?

Hmm my VIN (assigned today in source code, not yet visible) is 337xxx rather than 345. I hope I didn't get a pre-HW3 build. I wonder if it has to do with configuration? Mine is Midnight Silver, 19' wheels, black interior. Ordered 5/27. Seems odd that it would pop up on the same day as everyone...

Mine switched to "pay final balance" as well. Will check source for Vin after I get off mobile.

I thought of this as well, but then they would have a revolt on their hands because the cost of FSD is multiple times that of wheels. The people who ordered sooner and got their tax credit would complain about being punished or whatever for ordering early, just like the people who ordered before...

Urgh, that is frighteningly plausible. What would they do for people like me who already sprung for the wheels? There isn't any other upgrades comparable in price for us.

I dropped by my local store since I hadn't heard anything since date of order on 5/27. Turns out my sales adviser "left the company". The store manager was extremely firm that I would get my car by the end of the month. He literally said Tesla "guarantees" it. I asked him if Tesla could put that...
