    Taptes All Weather Floor Mats

    I got them recently as well, and am happy so far. I did have a problem when I put the rear mat in. Somehow I got oil on the mat and on my shirt sleeve. I’m thinking it came from the front seat rails. I didn’t notice until I got in the driver’s seat and put my arm on the center console and then...

    Flat tire repair kit

    What is the consensus on using the pump in Tesla’s kit just for air top-offs? It looks like it has an analog pressure gauge. I’m wondering if a model with a digital readout that allows presetting the target tire pressure would be better?

    Taptes All Weather Floor Mats

    Has anyone received any of these TAPTES mats? When I checked their site last week, it said mid-November for delivery. Now it says mid-December.

    One pedal driving

    After driving my new Y for just one week, I’m amazed at how quickly I’ve gotten used to, and come to really like, the regenerative breaking and one pedal driving. I drove one our traditional cars last night, and was initially almost confused when I let off the accelerator approaching a stop...

    Got My 2021 VIN!

    I asked on the phone before I picked it up, and they told me it was 10/16. I didn’t see that on any actual paperwork that though.

    Got My 2021 VIN!

    I think I’d save my money for a possible retrofit of a heated steering wheel if that becomes an option. I picked up a 633xx Y this weekend with single-pane glass, and the car is still the most quiet car I’ve ever driven.

    Was worried about MSM color choice

    Mostly great. I didn’t go over it with the checklist and a fine toothed comb, but I only noticed four minor issues so far. 1. The hood is misaligned to the right as I look at the front of the car. There are other alignments that some people may find objectionable, but really this is the only...

    Was worried about MSM color choice

    Picked my MSM long range yesterday. No red calipers, and I haven’t even tried taking the wheel covers off yet, but I absolutely love it. The pictures in Tesla’s color chooser do not do it justice.

    Taptes All Weather Floor Mats

    I’m holding out to see if the Taptes rear seat mat really has better coverage under the front seats than the 3Dmaxpiders. I may mix and match with something different for the cargo areas though.

    PPF installer recommendation Indianapolis area?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a good PPF install shop in the Indianapolis area? I’m scheduled to take delivery soon, and I’m considering getting it at least partially wrapped.

    Gap Insurance on Tesla loan?

    I have Tesla-arranged financing from US Bank. Does anyone have experience getting GAP insurance in that scenario? My auto insurance company (State Farm) doesn’t appear to offer it unless the loan is through their lending arm. Any suggestions?

    Tesla financing.

    You have to love the different laws in different states. Or maybe you don’t have to. :(

    Indiana Waiting Room

    When I got the text to schedule delivery, the two dates offered were 10/31 and 11/2, so that second one would qualify as the first week of November. Maybe you’ll get a similar choice.

    Tesla financing.

    Exact same experience for me last saturday.

    Indiana Waiting Room

    Thanks! I went the SD card route. That and the USB adapter just came today. I have the Model Y wheel cap kit coming, along with some other minor accessories. I haven’t ordered any mats yet. I like the look of the MAXpiders a lot, but I’m not so sure about how little the rear seat mat extends...

    Indiana Waiting Room

    I saw my VIN on the 17th. I got a text to schedule delivery today. Looks like it will be on 10/31.

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    One more question on this: since I am asking about the possibility of a lower rate, I haven’t accepted the initial offer I got of 2.49% with US Bank. I assumed I shouldn’t accept one until I knew if I could get a lower rate offer. Is that correct?

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    Thanks, I’ll try that one.

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    I emailed [email protected]. I’m not asking them to match something else, but just check other banks for a better rate.

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    How long does it normally take Tesla Finance to respond? I emailed asking them to look for a lower rate on Saturday, so they’ve been closed since then until only about an hour ago, but I’m just curious.

    3D Maxpider Model Y Floor Mats

    For everyone that has the 3D Maxpider mats, how satisfied are you with the rear seat floor mat? From all the pictures, I’m concerned that it doesn’t extend under the front seats enough for both protection and also comfort if one’s feet are sitting on that forward ridge. I’m really interested...

    Got My 2021 VIN!

    I called the service center today, and they said it might be around the 30th. I don’t have anything specific scheduled at this point. He did say the car is built though. I didn’t think to ask what the actual build date was.

    Gemini wheels- with or without hubcaps?

    Do the Gemini wheel caps and lug caps have to be removed to put the wheel covers back on? If so, how difficult is it to remove the wheel cap? I’m thinking I’d like to remove the covers for daily driving, but maybe put them back on for long trips.

    Just checked and found that I got my VIN! 633xx. LR, MSM, 19”, tow hitch, no FSD. Ordered 9/21

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    I’m having the same feeling. In my case, someone ordered the exact same configuration as me (with the exception of FSD), for delivery at the same location, a week later than me, but already has a VIN. I don’t begrudge that lucky person, but I do wonder why I wasn’t so lucky.

    Where's my car, what kinda jive is this?

    I know I’m not the first one to say this, but it is frustrating to see someone on the spreadsheet that ordered the same configuration as me in the same town as me one week after I did, have a VIN assignment already while I’m still waiting. I remember the account page said something about cars...

    Want your delivery as soon as possible? Some tips...

    My order is currently set to pay with cash, because I was concerned about the credit auth expiring if delivery went beyond 9 weeks. It shows all steps completed. I planned to change to a Tesla provided loan when I got a VIN. I wonder if it would really make a difference to apply for the loan now...

    October delivery Dates

    I was told this morning that the 5-9 week estimate on my order was accurate. When I mentioned November for when I might see a VIN, they said no and that the entire fourth quarter would be for overseas production and it might not be until January that I get a car. I’m not sure how both 5-9 weeks...

    Performance Boost Available

    Is this something that stays available indefinitely, or is it only available at the end of quarters like EAP or extra supercharging miles?

    How quickly must financing be arranged?

    Thanks. Apparently the refit union will do one last soft pull before closing on Friday. I assume just doing the $100 Tesla order would not do anything that would show up on that, correct? My credit score is excellent, but this credit union seems fairly conservative.

    How quickly must financing be arranged?

    I am ready to order a Model Y very soon. I’m considering putting an order in before Tuesday to get in front of any post-battery day surge and lock in a price ahead of any possible announced increase. I could always delay delivery if something is announced on Tuesday that I care about. To...

    Whole house surge protector?

    I’m in the process of getting home charging setup, and I wondered what the general wisdom is on the need for a whole house surge protector in the panel to protect the car. Has anyone decided to get one or not get one for any particular reason?

    Consensus on Gemini vs Induction?

    I really like those Geminis with the red calipers behind them. Thanks for the pics and perspective from diving all three sizes!

    Consensus on Gemini vs Induction?

    I’m coming from a Honda Accord, that doesn’t have an overly soft ride. I feel the bumps in the road with it. I’ve been thinking that the suspension of the car people are used to probably has a big influence on their perceptions of the MY. I’ve gone back and forth on whether or not I like the...

    Consensus on Gemini vs Induction?

    Imagine my chagrin when your post lead me to realize there is a whole list of threads at the root of the Model Y section and not just inside the sub-sections like Driving Dynamics. I have more to read now. Thanks!

    Consensus on Gemini vs Induction?

    Hi, all. I’ve been lurking on these forums for weeks now. I am planning to order an MY LR soon, and the toughest decision for me is the wheels. I test drove a Performance. I’m fairly sure it was a PUP, though I was having too much fun and forgot to confirm that. Having read all the concerns...
