Got my invite Jan 9 at RN 11279xxxx. Cyberbeast ordered.

I wonder how the POS will work when there are taxpayer qualifications based on AGI.

Seems we are back to "don't BUY a new vehicle unless you intend to keep it for seven years". So choose wisely.

Well, I had a situation related to that a couple of days ago. Bypass is for a left turn onto a freeway entrance ramp. Section of road preceding the bypass comes from a roundabout so cars are accelerating back up to the speed limit of 55 mph. What happened to me was "grandpa" in front of me was...

"Yield to traffic on your left" is the law and my mantra in multi lane roundabouts. If I am in the outside lane my head is on a swivel assuming the cars on the inside are trying to kill me, even when I'm not on a motorcycle. All my local roundabouts are one lane. 3.1 seems to handle those well.

First day testing. Area I live in has a general speed limit of 55. Problem is that limit can apply through sharp 90 degree bends and even roundabouts. Those are marked with warning signs like 20 mph. FSD needs to read those and take action.

I'm in, new user upgraded from 36.6. Might be a coincidence but yesterday I sent my VIN number to the earlyaccess email box. This morning when I checked my cell phone at wakeup time, voila!

I don't know that constancy of enrollment or safety score makes any difference at this point. Everybody who paid for FSD should have the opportunity to get V11 by the end of the year. I suppose there is a slight chance of us enrolled with high scores getting 69.3.1 in the meantime but I am not...

Trailer jackknifed a little too far when backing up. Right rear fender. Assume PDR can take care of that.

Well..... I dearly love my Y priced last September, now.... chose options to make an apples to apples comparison with a 2023 AWD Cadillac Lyriq (tow, 20" wheels and EAP) and bleep, the Y is 10K more expensive.

In 1979, "United States recognized that the government of the People's Republic of China was the sole legal government of China, and acknowledged the PRC's position that Taiwan is part of China." The CCP will not permit Taiwan independence.

I have an order for a Lariat Lighting ER, 87K, which I can back out of without penalty. But that truck is/was Plan B. I think or maybe wishfully think Tesla can price a dual motor CT under the tax credit limit. Just looking at 304 stainless pricing it's more than doubled since 2019, to around...

40 years of watching financial markets has taught me this: parabolic up is followed by parabolic down.

Will go with the quad at 100+K, and a dual motor squeaking in under the tax credit limit. The cheapest Extended Range Lightning is over 80K so there's the bar.

Thing I learned quickly in stop and go freeway traffic is set the max speed to what you think is the actual pace of traffic. For example, the freeway may be marked 65 mph but the actual flow is more like 20. Set the max to say 25 and the TACC won't jerk you back and forth and set itself up for...

The triumph of hope over experience.

My expectations are that CT production starts in late 2023, and I expect there will be some configuration priced under 80K. I mean it's obvious that 2019 pricing is long gone. Even so a dual motor at 70 is a bargain relative to it's competition. I have an opportunity to order a Lightning but...

Have to say I like my bolt better for smooth driving with its well implemented blended braking. Smoothest driving for me in the Tesla is set it to creep mode.

I'm a Yankee, where 95 generates excessive heat warnings. Next week though I'm planning a x-country trip which will route from Grand Junction Co to Vegas to LA, I-70 and I-15. Any advice welcome, first time trying this in an EV, 2022 Model Y LR.

Coming from Bolt world, one OTA that just tweaked the infotainment system in 2017 and none since. Two months of Tesla ownership, so many updates I've lost count, 😆. Gimme Tesla's approach.

Agree. I drove on US-2 through upper Michigan and the nav didn't know the speed limit (65) or the camera missed the speed limit sign. Tesla nav should be as comprehensive as Google maps one would think even if the camera misses a sign.

Had a drive today on a lightly traveled, fairly straight freeway so I decided to test the cabin camera. 82 mph autosteer on. Looking straightahead hands off, hands on wheel warning came after 42 verbal counts (a thousand and one... etc) versus 13 counts if I tilted my head obviously down...

Tax credit returns, zero chance of price cuts.

No wind or water leaks? If so, leave it alone.

Took mine 25 miles. Driving north on US131 with well marked lanes.

Oh yes they can. I lived through the stagflation of 1973-1981.

Wow is right, price has gone up 10K since my 9/1 order. I have the car now (4 days) and it's wonderful but would I have paid 70K OTD? Don't think so.

Today, Day 285, took delivery. Car looks great. Already got my first software update, an hour after I parked it at the house.

And on day 285!

285 days doesn't get fast as a qualifier. One thing about age is patience grows along with the years.

"Hi Joseph, congratulations, it's your turn to schedule your Model Y for delivery. Select your tentative appointment now at tesla.com/schedule/RNxxxx Appointment will be tentative pending on-time arrival and inspection of your Model Y. We may reach out to schedule a new appointment if your Model...

I swore I would never buy a black vehicle till I bought one, LOL. If you aren't OCD about appearance at all times it's not bad. Here it is with some good honest Colorado mud on it.

June 13 at 1:00PM. Fingers crossed there's no last second delay. (Grand Rapids).

Latest snag, hopefully easy to resolve. Added the Y to my current insurance policy, multicar and renews 08/06. Tesla app doesn't like that because it's not 60+ days from delivery date. SA will try to override manually or I will have to call the insurance agent today.

There's the CARB warranty of 10 years, 150K miles on the EV powertrain or am I mistaken?

Re: China Y's having double pane rear door windows Maybe a cultural thing. From what I have heard it is prestigious to ride in the back seat while being chauffeured, and a Tesla is pricey enough to qualify as a limo over there. So more has to be done there to keep the back seat environment...

It will have taken 280 something days for me to take delivery of a LR. It is what it is. Consolation is my price is a screaming deal by current standards. Want a RAV4 Prime? Maybe 2024.

Message implied it's shipping. Cars are trucked into Michigan from Illinois or Ohio after you pay for them, maybe they wait for a full truckload for the last leg of the journey. Vexing part is arranging the 120 mile trip to GRR. It's not like I can just Uber over any ol' time at Tesla's convenience.

Scheduled delivery 6/13. Details in signature.

Tesla Held Hostage - Day 276 And delivery scheduling pushed back a week.

So on day 275 I got my invite to schedule delivery on Mon-Wed of next week.

My ship came in on 5/25. Just finished arranging for payment and insurance. Hopefully will take delivery late next week.

Miracle: I got a VIN last night.

I have a Y order, and a Lyriq order. Y should be coming soon, and the Caddy may take a year to get. Question is should get the Y and drive it till the Lyriq arrives? I don't need both.

I have a 2 week window that bouncing around in June. Why I even bother to look anymore, IDK.

You are lucky it wasn't totaled, or unlucky it wasn't totaled.

As good a guess as any. My EDD just got pushed back to mid-late June.
