    Netflix and YouTube

    I have the same issue and I've tried all the workarounds I've been able to find including removing 2FA and reducing app security settings. Nothing has allowed me to login to YT (always receive the error that the browser is not secure). Not a huge deal, but would be nice to be able to watch...

    Neurotic or Normal?

    It is quite normal. I was in a group waiting for a MYP in December and we all were essentially doing the same. Now that I have the car, I do feel a little emptiness since I'm not mashing my F5 key and posting here 20 times per day :-)

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Picked up my car tonight. Immaculate car with no issues that I've found. Incredibly happy. Got her home and already installed the .26 update. Would post a pic but can't seem to figure out how. I keep getting a security error :-(

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Damn man, so sorry. I can't imagine what excuse they'd have for that. I am still seeing people who ordered in Dec. take delivery - don't recall if any were MYPs, but still. You ordered 6 weeks before I did and I'm making it (knock on wood). Maybe you won't make the end of year, but it's possible...

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    No way to know for sure, but legend has it that if you don't take delivery now, it'll probably be March before you get your car and you'll be facing the same EoQ/EoY rush/volume.

    New Tesla Wrap

    Both cars look great! What color is that wrap? Can't tell if it's like a baby blue or just white with some pearl to it. Also, where did you get the front spoiler for your M3P? Looks great :-)

    Garage Door Opener

    I have MyQ as well for my Chamberlain opener. I also setup homebridge so it integrates with Homekit (would be nice if it did that natively) so I can setup a scene so the door opens automatically when I get close.

    Buying MY with 425 on the odometer

    Guess I'm a fool /shrug. I never said I paid or would recommend paying full price. Might be dependent on where you live. In small markets, there aren't many dealerships, the dealerships are smaller, and there are fewer cars available to test drive. It's always awesome when people tell you your...

    Buying MY with 425 on the odometer

    I've seen a lot of people concerned about their cars having miles on them. When you buy a new ICE car at a dealership they generally do have 100s of miles on them from people test driving the car. It is just part of it and you can bet the ICE dealership isn't going to comp you $1/mile like Tesla...

    To tow or not to tow?

    I get my MY on Dec 29th with Tow hitch. I have a 6x12 enclosed utility trailer that I tow dirt bikes, 4-wheelers, and street bike in.

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Damn, car looks great. Out of curiosity, you're spending some money on the exterior - is there anything you could do on that white interior to protect it? I was thinking white up until the time I ordered and ended up going black interior because I have young kids and I just wasn't confident it...

    Home Delivery Tips?

    I just got off the phone with the SC and they weren't sure why I was given a home delivery since I have a trade-in. They kept my current appointment and just said to come to the SC instead. I'm a little worried that it will get forgotten if it isn't changed in the system, but the delivery date...

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    VINs are non-sequential. The more important aspect is the build date. Always ask for that and it should better tell you what recent upgrades it may or may not have.

    Home Delivery Tips?

    Anyone go the home delivery route? I'm 15 minutes from the local SC but the appointment I got offered was a home delivery. Seems like that's no big deal but anything to be aware of? I also have a trade-in. Assume they'll just show up in my car and drive away in my trade? Or, will they be hauling...

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Just got the text to schedule my delivery. Even though I'm 15 minutes from the SC, it's a home delivery. I guess I'm fine with that. Do they just drive the car to you or will it come on a flatbed? Current date is the 29th.

    PUP Tow - some suggestions

    Thank you for posting! There isn't a ton of data out there about towing and most I've seen are with the LR model. So, every little bit of new data helps! I'll have an MYP before the end of the year and I'll be towing dirt bikes in a 6x12 enclosed, single axle utility trailer. Very interested to...

    Towing height

    I'll have my Y in a couple of weeks but for small trailers like that, either of those options will be just fine. My ground to top-of-the-ball measurement on my Acadia is 20.5 inches and I'm just planning on measuring when I get the Y and getting close to that. I'm towing a 6x12 enclosed...

    If you take delivery before the end of the month, you're also getting a year of free super charging (for whatever that's worth to you). Tesla employees confirmed it in the unofficial Tesla Discord.

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Congrats! Just checked mine for the one beeeelionth time today and no VIN yet. Someone in the Tesla Discord mentioned that someone claimed to take a Y delivery today and the front bumper had PPF. We've heard this before and it wasn't true so taking with a grain of salt. But...

    My first Model Y

    No thanks. It has the old steering wheel and scroll wheels. :D

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Experienced the same thing - mine was Dec 2-6 and now is 15th-31st. So....I guess that's better than being blank. @NASASpaceXlove - what about you? Have an ETA now?
  28. daedaleck

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Ya, seems odd that they'd hold something like that back. Plus, when they announce it, all the people without the actual hardware will be like, "Where's my f'ing heated wheel?" I'm hoping I'm wrong because I want the heated wheel, but I don't think it makes sense. And, if it were already there...
  29. daedaleck

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    The rumor is that the hardware is there with the updated wheel and Tesla is going to enable it via the holiday software update.

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    FWIW, I had a delivery estimate show in my account as Dec 2 - 6. Every day the first date would adjust to the new day. Today it is now blank. My SA says I should have a VIN any day and my keyboard needs new CMD+R keys :D @Pianewman I think we're just excited to get these cars. Many of us have...

    Performance y vins are here!

    Sweet! Congrats! Hopefully that takes some stress out of the situation and helps the VIN come quicker!

    Performance y vins are here!

    Ya, see my post on page 13. My SA said that date (mine is Dec 3 - 6) is "fluid" which I took to mean that the date is meaningless. I don't have a VIN yet, either. Hopefully we'll all be taking home MYs before the end of the month, though.

    Performance y vins are here!

    In Indiana, sales tax is 7% and you don't pay sales tax on the trade-in value. Because I'm lazy, here's an easy example. If your new Tesla is 50k and your trade-in is 20k, you only pay sales tax on $30k (50k-20k) which ends up being $2100. So, let's say that 20k is a low-ball. You can get $25k...

    Performance y vins are here!

    It shouldn't make any difference, but I front-loaded the mileage in my original valuation. I padded it by 1k miles knowing that the ETA of the car was pretty far out. This time I just put accurate mileage in. But who knows. By the way, I saw STP-2 launch from the beach about 9 miles down range...
  35. daedaleck

    Performance y vins are here!

    @NASASpaceXlove I just got an updated trade-in. 1 month of age and 34 miles dropped the trade-in value of my 2017 Acadia $2k. I think I'm going to check Vroom and Carvana before accepting the new offer.
  36. daedaleck

    Performance y vins are here!

    So, my SA told me that the ETA in my account was "fluid" (read: worthless). She said that she typically gets the VIN 1-2 weeks before I would get it and she doesn't see one. Best case is I'm 1-2 weeks from a VIN and then another 1-2 weeks from delivery. So, still possible to get one in the...

    Performance y vins are here!

    I have a trade-in, got a delivery estimate of Dec 2 - 6 in my account yesterday but still no VIN. No response from my SA. May try calling today rather than text.
  38. daedaleck

    2021 MYP Waiting Room

    Yep, same here. No VIN but delivery estimate of Dec 2 - 6. Texted my SA but haven't heard back. Could it finally be happening?!
  39. daedaleck

    Performance y vins are here!

    My valuation just expired again, too. I text my SA (who is usually very responsive) to ask if I can wait to do another valuation until I get a VIN but haven't received a response. I thought there was a thread on this topic but couldn't find it. Do I need to do another valuation in order to keep...

    6 day old Model Y Broke down and needed a tow

    Dang, sorry you went through that. Keep us posted on the repair experience.
  41. daedaleck

    Performance y vins are here!

    While it is strange and concerning that there hasn't been a MYP w/ tow delivered in a while, if you look at the LR deliveries, many of those have hitches. I think it's just a coincidence. Clearly there isn't a shortage to hitches. I'm guessing/hoping there's going to be a big run of MYPs for end...

    6 day old Model Y Broke down and needed a tow

    Was it still drivable? Could you have driven to a Service Center if you were given the option? Seems odd they'd say it needed a tow if you could still drive it even at a reduced capacity (unless they thought it was to prevent some kind of damage). How slow were you limited to?

    Seems like MYPs are in another dry spell according to the spreadsheet. Here's to hoping many of us are getting badass Christmas presents :-)

    Towing an inTech Flyer Pursue with a Model Y PUP 21" Überturbines

    I know it isn't applicable to any other combination, but just curious what kind of Wh/mi and range you've gotten with your setup.

    Performance y vins are here!

    Ah, right on. Was taking a wild guess at the spreadsheet based on your name and city. Congrats on your VIN, nonetheless! Still jealous!

    Performance y vins are here!

    Thanks for that @Clark_Kent. My philosophy has always been prioritizing function over form. I've always viewed tint as purely aesthetic with no other purpose other than to hide what's inside. But, I could see that it could provide efficiency gains by keeping the car cooler in the summer. So...
  48. daedaleck

    Performance y vins are here!

    I've never been a fan of tint. Curious what the practical benefits are (honestly asking, not trying to argue). Otherwise, I'm getting mats and a screen protector. I may look at some of the performance bits eventually and hopefully some track time. If given the choice, though, I'd definitely...
