    The great Model X saga is nearly over. One year and about 2 months later I finally hopefully will have the car that I ordered. Even though the experience was less than good. Still, I'm going to celebrate. Going to take some gifts for the SC for all their work. Tesla folks have always been...

    fwiw these dates seem fluctuate like the stock market. i went from having a date in Feb to early March. Then suddenly it was July. Then 2 days later I got a 3 day window. One day after that a VIN.

    Called Tesla and they confirmed that my VIN is a 2022 build and it was begun on Feb 17, 2022 so it's going to be Tesla Vision only, no radar. Since I ordered all the way back in Jan 2021, I have a very low price for my MX LR w/FSD at about $115k. Since then I changed my mind and decided I...

    Thank you! Any one know how to figure out from VIN if your car has Tesla Vision? Anyone preferring radar over Tesla vision? Or Tesla vision over radar?

    Since we all obsess on the small print. I think this small change is new. My EDD says January but the message underneath now says "Delivery timing will be available soon" versus some long message about being contacted at the right time.

    Yeah, I feel the same way. I never imagined that I'd ever have the $ for an X in my life. My first X was so fun, so cool that I signed up for a second. Maybe I'm a dumb Elon, Tesla fan boy but I'm chill with getting my X when I get it. I ordered on Jan 15, 2021, Blue/White, LR, 6, FSD. When this...

    Fair critique. Tesla is a enviable position in terms of demand vs supply. They are also overwhelmed by this situation. Elon focuses the resources on engineering, innovation and production. Customer service is never a big thing for Tesla. I suppose if you build a great car that people love, it...

    Come late this year, going to be enough chips to go around because ICE production going to collapse. And EV production is only scaling up, so everything going to work out.

    How many Rivians will they make this year? Its not vaporware in terms of the fact that it exists. But Rivian is about to go thru production hell. Lets see how they scale up to building thousands of trucks and then figuring out delivery plus dealing with investor expecations.

    If we slowed ICE manufacturing, it would speed EV productions and everyone can be happy. Instead, VW stopping EV production and I bet all the ICE manufacturers going to prioritize ICE over EVs. Bottom line, Tesla still most likely to get you an EV in the next 6 - 12 months.

    Tesla is not even a tech company. It's a company that uses technology to convert energy in cars for mobility, in powerwalls for use at home and in Teslabots for routine, daily chores. It aims to do this thru finely crafted software, apps that are at this moment 10X better than its competitors...

    People are forgetting how hard it is to scale up, how much it costs and the problems of optimizing a new manufacturing operation to deliver cars at a cost that wont' bankrupt the company. Rivian, Lucid have a trial by fire ahead. The legacy ICE makers imo are just biding time till they meet...

    I also watched Sandy Munro test the Ford Blue Cruise self driving. It's not even where Tesla was in 2017 when I got my MX. They ask you to put your hands on the wheel essentially into any turn.

    I've been watching Sandy Munro's coverage of Mach E. What a kludge. Typical of a company that operates in no mans land, still making ICE, and trying to use that base to cobble together an EV. It's neither fish nor fowl. Lets see how many Ford Lightnings are delivered when the delivery dates come...

    In 5 years I'm thinking that Tesla's lead is 2x 3x bigger, maybe more. No one is moving as fast as Tesla to put up capacity. No one is moving as fast to improve autopilot. Tesla is getting millions of miles of actual real world data to use. That advantage is small at first and then impossible to...

    This is correct. No one has the scale to make EVs to deliver in the next 6 or even 12 months. No one has a supercharger network. No one has Autopilot that works as well as Tesla. Then only company I'd maybe consider is Lucid.

    Things just tend to happen suddenly with Elon and Tesla. Like who really knows what the final MX will have. It was ages ago when they introduced it. Maybe, maybe it has the 4680. Or maybe they tack on another 3% in range. Or maybe they'll throw in free supercharging again. Or maybe it'll just be...

    Yeah I towed a Uhaul with my MX in the winter and half of it was uphill. I had to recharge twice in full to make it to my destination. Tesla needs to steal an idea from Ford Lightning and provide an tow adjusted range. Or maybe by the time the CT comes out this will be irrelevant for most trips.

    Chips are made in large quantities. So once they start it'll be a flood. And thanks for the guidance on taking delivery. I'm sure I could postpone taking delivery and there will be plenty of people ready to take my December slot.
