Hey folks! I mentioned earlier that I picked up today but didn't provide much additional info beyond that, so I figured I'd jot down some notes, particularly as a first time Tesla owner. Hopefully this helps some of you! In no particular order of importance, here are some observations: I had...

Friends - keep the faith! I took delivery today and could not be happier. The vehicle was nearly flawless, save for one Gemini cap that needed a new clip and no washer fluid and the fact that they were ridiculously busy getting cars out the door. No matter - gave my wife and I a chance to grab...

Friends - amidst your excitement please be sure to double check your pickup location prior to heading out for pickup - my pickup location had been set since I ordered, and this afternoon it changed to a different location 40 miles in the opposite direction. Without warning. I just checked and...

Anyone else in this thread feel like Red in Shawshank prison with a new batch of Andy Dufresne joining daily? I’ve been serving my sentence since 4/22. I know the ways of this establishment. Dates disappeared? Yea, that happens. Lumbar taken away? Please, I lost radar! SA won’t get back to...

Follow up to my own note - I just pinged the pickup location and let them know I uploaded my current policy - they told me that’s perfect and that they would reach out 24-48 hours prior to pickup to confirm everything with insurance. So just do that and you should be good to go.

Was told by a Tesla rep to upload my current declaration of insurance from the insurance company. That gives them what they need to contact the insurance company and get everything squared away prior to delivery. Haven’t picked up yet but uploaded my insurance info today and will email the...

Might not be perfect but better than nothing right? I mean would it even make sense for them to remove the entire system from the seats? I feel like that would be way more costly than simply removing the button and consolidating the operations to the screen. The front seats are identical...

At the risk of sounding completely ignorant and naive, wouldn’t the elimination of manual switches, such as lumbar, partially alleviate the microchip issue, while allowing for centralized control of the adjustment that was previously controlled by the switch? Surely the central unit is powerful...

No doubt the Rimetrix covers look awesome. On the topic of geminis...I truly believe that the geminis look far better in person than they do in photos. I really wasn’t thrilled about them but also wasn’t thrilled about spending $2k on wheels that I knew I’d scuff up on potholes from New England...

Sold my car to Carmax today. They offered $3k more than Tesla. Could not have been easier. Zero haggling, they honored the price that got me in the door, 40 minutes in and out for me too. I’d recommend doing business with them.

I think it would be sweet if there were options that were priced at $1k each. Like $1k for traffic light recognition, $1k for auto lane change. Bet they would sell a ton. Also, if auto park and smart summon were truly auto park and smart summon...as in, I get out in front of a store and the car...

Happy for you. I’m picking mine up Friday at noon! 🍻 🍻

Heads up, also picking up in Dedham, I could not get in touch with anyone for the life of me. I ended up calling Peabody and they got me scheduled in Dedham in about 5 minutes. If your's is on the same transport as mine, pickup will be sometime mid/late next week. Earliest appointment I could...

Is there some secret way to actually call your pickup location? Whenever I call the local number it seems I’m routed to a central dial in center. Happened when I did my test drive and happened yesterday when I wanted to check in on my order (and that was two different locations in MA). Does this...

I think I saw yours is a performance right? That could be it. I thought I had the “late” build style with a double whammy of blue & 7 seats.

MA friends - I have a VIN! 196, pickup 5/31-6/4. Literally just happened at midnight. Ordered 4/22, exactly 5 weeks ago.

I got it for the following reasons in order of importance: 1 - Safety: young kids and super powerful outlets in the garage didn’t seem like a good mix. Young kids, or at least mine, do really really stupid things. It’s a closed system that is, in my opinion, safer. 2 - Future-proofing: this is...

Nope! Take a look at this pic - they installed hooks to keep it away from the rails. I believe I have about 16” in that wall space before the wood. 10” is definitely on the tighter side. I needed the flexibility to park in both bays and outside (no issues with the cord going under the garage...

$850 for an installation of a wall connector on a 60amp circuit and a fairly good run of wire (pic attached). Not sure how that would compare to an installation of a nema 14-50 . Also not sure if the cost of a nema 14-50 outlet is officially qualified for the EV charging station tax credit, but...

I'm in that boat - by all accounts my trade would be expired at this point (34 days out), but I decided that I am selling it to Carmax instead, since their offer increased by $3k in that timeframe. I'm not making a stink of it with Tesla so as to not rock the boat, and I'm just going to cross...

Same!

folks...I'm trying to get some work done here...and. this. forum. isn't. helping!!!! Ahhhhh where's my VIN! 😬😬😬

I have a blue ordered from Dedham...Maybe it was hiding in the back and they'll truck it down? I can only hope! 🤓

Good to see some VINs coming through on the east coast - I think I saw someone from RI post they received a vin, still no love for MA I don't think? I ordered 4/22, no VIN/no dates.

On the topic of trade ins....Tesla offered me ~$23.5k for my 2018 Honda Accord when I ran the numbers with them on 4/22 when I ordered my MY. I was comfortable with that, given Carmax offered me $24k flat, given the perceived ease of trading in vs selling to carmax (I've just never done it...

I have a MY LR DBM on order from Dedham! ordered 4/22, 7 seater/black interior/no FSD - hopefully we are not competing for the same config!. Fingers crossed we get some good news in the coming days/weeks in the Northeast!

same BM3OD for me, but at least this happened today 😃. Now just need my MY!

Hey Folks! I've been watching this thread for weeks, first time posting. I'm in the same boat as nearly all of you - ordered a LR MY, DBM, 7 seater w/ black interior on 4/22. Dates were immediate and fairly consistent pointing to June 1-June 29, but tightened to late May-early June once I...

oh I ordered one for sure! I believe I’m around 69,000 in line, if the order numbers mean anything (1128096xx). But was curious about how to go about testing any Tesla and when we think we might get the ability to drive the CT specifically!

Mirrors for sure as they are required. I actually think part of the reason people find the truck so polarizing, subconsciously, is because it doesn’t have rear mirrors. It’s like a face without ears. Mirrors frame the face of the car and make it look more terrestrial vs alien.

Ordered my Cybertruck DM AWD. Wanted a Tesla for a while but waited, and glad I did. Here’s the thing though, I’ve never driven a Tesla or any EV for that matter. All the YouTube videos in the world don’t equate to a real world test. So question for all those that preordered and purchased a...

Ordered the same one. Curious, did you get an email confirmation on your order? I didn’t get anything other than a receipt from ApplePay.
