    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Too many variables into this of course. More than likely a bunch of retired old farts with lower incomes, but massive savings. Living (and working) in modest middle America with 2 kids, I can't see someone affording this car making less than 250K. Unless they have a heavy downpayment...

    I can tell you that this tracking sheet is about as accurate as any SA statement. Every time I check it my info is wrong, too many people don't understand how to add a row at the bottom and to fill out each column. So every time I update my info, I know someone else's is now wrong. FWIW...

    Wait, is 0 not really 0 on the battery level? I had always assumed it was like a phone and when it hits 0, she done.

    Curious, I see a lot of message that say "ordered from [specific store]", why would you want to do that rather than just order on the web?

    Friend ordered a Ford F150 recently and his delivery date keeps slipping because they don't have trim pieces. Seeing these testers without trim 1 could conclude the Tesla line issues are similar.

    3.1 and 1.99 cannot be compared, 1 is with rollout, 1 is not. More like comparing 2.8 to 1.99, so .8s difference. I personally don't think its worth the 40K, but have no judgement on those that do.

    Planning to sell my current S to a friend, we agreed to 62.5K in February and have been telling him it will drop by 700 or so every month is my guess. But since my payment is $1500 a month I'm actually gaining $800 a month in equity. Tesla offered 49K, carvana/vroom offered 55K.

    I know the MB doesn't have FSD, but after just driving the wifes new GLS 3K miles for spring break, I actually found the MB "autopilot" to be better in some ways than my S. Worse in other areas, so I would call it a tie. As I was contemplating an E53 earlier in this thread, the EQS could be my...

    Call Sony and demand to know when the X90J will be delivered and each person you talk to will give you a different answer. Sony is a mature company. This is not a communications problem, definitely not a Tesla issue. This is called, "how it works". No one forcing anyone to buy anything, take...

    Am I to understand that the cars on the truck with what appear to be double 5 star silver rims are what's under the hubs? Those don't look bad for what would be my winter setup.

    I happen to be in IT, but its not difficult to modify page content using developer tools built into browsers. Even if I send the source code it will look legit since you are modifying the source code locally. Not saying the above isn't real, but suspect.

    We picked up our new Mercedes GLS yesterday and after just 1 day I realized something. I like my model S, and another on order, simply for the performance. The fit and finish of this GLS is perfect. Other than autopilot, the technology is arguably better than Tesla. The only reason I’m...

    You know, even as someone who has an LR on order, I didn't notice this. This is kinda shady, they are comparing 2 variants of the same car on their site with an apple to oranges measurement. Very clearly done to show the largest gap between 2 cars. Makes me even more happy with my LR purchase...

    FSD beta for all?

    I was actually wondering if you had to have FSD to get the beta? Is that a stupid question? If they had a beta that wowed me and then took it away, I'd be likely to purchase.

    HA! FSD? That will go down as the most under delivered product in the history of consumerism. If you plan to keep your car for 10+ years, I can see why you'd buy FSD. But it really depends on what you think FSD is, because it aint Level 5 and it aint happening as a software update on any car...

    I love when people use the terms "concerning" and "unsettling" related to when they get their 1 percenter cars. Its not groceries or electricity (well not really). I have 1 on order and could care less when it comes, it does when it does and no concerns. Now, I am excited and want it, but its...

    My sales assistant said the opposite that they wouldn't have any demos until they filled the massive amount of back orders that they have from early December. My point being, these low level associates do not have any more info than we do.

    I will be selling my damn near identical spec in the next few weeks, really curious what your final sale ends up being, if you wouldn’t mind sharing.

    About that "yoke" steering wheel

    I know its Tesla and odd things happen, but confused why you would even order a presumed spec that you have no interest in? Wait 2-3 more weeks until the first 1 is delivered and see if it has a yolk or not. Its not like model S's are ever more than 4-6 weeks from order to delivery. I also...

    Close to purchasing p100d

    2016 for 63K if I'm reading right? I would want a cold weather package in PA. I'm planning to sell mine in the next 2-4 weeks, hit me up if interested for around the same cost, EAP, HW2.5, 2 years newer, factory warranty and less miles. Unsure if the super charging will carryover on that...

    Order in! *2021 Model S Long Range*

    Tesla always calls them whatever year they are built. Same thing with 2016 facia refresh, raven, many other scenarios. Both will be called 2021, when resold the listing with probably say 2021 Refresh or 2021 March Build.

    I didn't even see anything about ventilated seats, awesome bonus for my order as well. Wasn't happy about loosing the sunroof, this helps.

    Opinions on when to sell

    So I have a 2018 Model S 100D, EAP, 25K miles. Have ordered a new S with a delivery date of 3/1-3/30. Tesla has given me a trade of 49,900, Vroom came in at 55,000. KBB is closer to 60,000, which is what I would like. Although I see plenty asking 62-70K on different sites. Planning to list...

    Thanks for pointing this out. Looks like the tires are Pilot 4S, so pure summer tires. Hope mine comes later in March, otherwise I'll need to figure out what to do. Should I keep my existing 19" Slipstreams with all weather and trade/sell my current S with the arachnids? Was hoping to sell...

    2020.12.11 Rolling Out.

    Got 12.11.1 last night, 2018 S with 2.5. The only visuals I have are cones, which it thinks everything is a cone. I only have EAP, but thought the visuals would show lights and signs. But my release notes are different than above and make no mention of lights and stop signs.

    WTB: New Black Arachnids - Near Central Ohio

    Black Arachnid's For Sale - OC

    Considering the latest listing for these with mounted tires are going for 2900, you’re a little high. From the pics It does look like the center caps and TPMS are included. Tires for these are 1600 mounted and balanced. If you are willing to come down to market value, I’m interested.

    Those aren’t Michelin’s, but regardless, 2500 is the going rate on these, if you’ll do that, I’ll pay the shipping. Assuming these are staggered, I’m interested.

    When you engage AP (not NOAP), what do you normally do to stop the nagging to hold the steering?

    I bend my knees so that 1 or both lightly touch the bottom of the wheel, usually works. I only go on AP when I need to check my phone, but check it and look at the road as if I didn't have AP, like my previous cars.

    Columbus, Ohio: Model X 20" Slipstream wheels, center caps (no tires or TPMS)

    I'm tempted to get these to hold some Blizzaks for winters (Columbus as well), but my plan was to get some 21 Archnoids and reuse my current 19 gray slipstreams for winter.

    FSD price drop to $3000

    The chart doesnt say bought, but rather ordered. So is that when it was built or when I requested the delivery? As I bought an inventory model, brand new, that was built in October, but I didnt get it until 3/31, you can understand the confusion.

    FSD price drop to $3000

    I'm not sure that chart is right. I bought an inventory model (10/2018 build date) with EAP and took delivery of it on 3/31/2019. According to that, full FSD says its free for me. But listed as $3000 upgrade. Maybe once new FSD options come out, I will get them?
