    Quality of new MY's - is it better now?

    Took delivery 7/18 of non performance, white, white, gemini, tow hitch, FSD. Ordered 2/1/20. First one was promised 6/30 but was diverted (found out by calling morning of 6/30). VIN 20xxx built 7/3. Definitely some misalignment issues: doors, hatch, tail lights. Interior good. Sheet metal...

    Had your car removed and delivered to someone else for Q2 sales waiting room

    Didn't find out until 2 hours before scheduled delivery on 6/30 that delivery had been canceled over the weekend. 7/3 assigned new VIN. Still don't have delivery date. Supposedly will be fresh off assembly line. Haven't been able to find out why original VIN unassigned. Tesla said pre...

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Finally found out that my VIN had been unassigned because of pre-production issues. Could be 2-4 weeks to get another car, maybe sooner. Unclear what the pre-production issues were. They could have given to someone else or problems were so extensive they decided not to ship. Maybe later...

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    6/21 at 8:45 PM received text saying ready to deliver 6/30 and to pick a time that night. Picked 11:30 AM. Sunday 6/28 went by service center and saw that they had not received my car. 6/30 at 8:30 AM I texted my sales rep. He said probably moved into shop for detailing on Saturday...would...

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Got msg at 8:44 PM last night requesting response that night about pickup time on 6/30...only date option given. Guess if I had delayed responding they might have given the car to someone else in their desire to deliver as many cars as possible before the end of the quarter. Noticed they did...

    AWD Non-Performance White Interior Waiting Room

    Just heard from my Sales Rep in Pittsburgh area. Said they had just gotten their first MY with white interior and that he suspected we'll receive word on a match for my order over the next week or so. Said I should be able to take delivery by end of month. Ordered LR AWD white with white...

    Tow Hitch now available on configurator

    My sales rep sent me a copy of something he received (I assume from Tesla) saying the Model Y towing hitch would be 2" not 1 1/4". He asked me not to share the written copy that he forwarded. This is great news for me since my bike rack requires a 2" receiver. Elsewhere on the internet it...

    Tow Hitch Option Finally Available!

    Class 2 is a 1 1/4" receiver. There are adapters but they will move the hitch opening farther out by 6 or 7 ".

    Any test drives at stores yet?

    Well, one way to look at the non refundable deposit is as the price of an option to buy. Without the option, if you do decide to buy, you will have to wait at least a few months longer (guesstimate). Is it worth $100 not to have to wait as long if a test drive ignites the flames of desire...

    Why Ordered, Greatest Concerns

    The 20" wheels will necessitate less sidewall height meaning two things. 1) harsher ride unless suspension adjusted, which I doubt Tesla does and 2) higher probability of wheel damage from potholes. I have seen at least a couple of people post about the expense of wheel replacement. Not...

    Is worth to order FSD now?

    There is a spreadsheet here somewhere showing at last count about 65% of MY orders logged are FSD. Navigation on FSD seems pretty attractive. Have friend with MS that says way less stressful on autopilot and he isn't as tired at end of a trip.

    Bike rack drain

    What kind of suction mounted top rack do you have? Is it clear that the danger of roof damage is minimal? I have a Kuat Sherpa 2.0 rear rack that I love, but might consider a roof rack for the MY if it can go in and out of our garage without dismounting the bike...my wife and I have both...

    Why Ordered, Greatest Concerns

    This will be my first electric vehicle and I only recently began considering a Tesla. I had a client in CA that bought a Model S in 2012; he took me for ride right after he got it. I think he paid $125,000. It was impressive, but at the time I thought it was just a rich man's toy because...

    Why Ordered, Greatest Concerns

    While we are waiting to hear about likely delivery dates and wasting time obsessing over same, would anyone want to post why they ordered the new Y site unseen and what are their greatest concerns? I'll post my own thoughts a little later.

    Tracking Model Y orders

    Anyone have suggestions on how to curtail obsessing over this car and likely long wait for delivery? Its in my head way too much...embarasing and saps productivity.

    How Early is too Early to get the Y

    Ordered LR AWD. Commonality with M3 gives some comfort regarding build quality on early production...not that having ordered 2/1/20 likely will get me one of the first units to be produced. (Would like to know what a reasonable expectation actually is. Salesman said maybe sometime this...

    Tracking Model Y orders

    207 orders has to be way too low. How can we better tell how many actual orders there are?
