    Not getting any software updates??

    Do software updates always come in sequential order? I still don't have the update to give me live view of the cameras from the app. In other words, do I have to receive that one before I receive the holiday update? Or will the holiday update be pushed out and automatically include the...

    Fun with the horn and Santa Mode

    i have selected "Spread the cheer" but I do not hear anything playing outside of the car while I'm driving. Is it limited to certain speeds?

    Charging Efficiency and Cost Question

    Still trying to find this answer: Does the charging cost that optiwatt displays take into account the efficiency or does the cost assume a 100% efficiency? (I searched the optiwatt site but couldn't find the answer)

    Charging Efficiency and Cost Question

    I use the standard wall outlet and can only charge at 8A due to my circuit. My efficiency (according to optiwatt) is always between 70-80%. Is this normal?

    Charging table - time to charge at 120/240V considering efficiency+

    High power consumption at "start up"?

    Right. Well there is still a higher spike at the very beginning of me driving the car than anywhere else during the same trip, even in stop/go traffic. So I'm wondering why there is a large spike at startup?

    High power consumption at "start up"?

    All of them, 30, 15, 5. There is always a decent size spike when I first start driving after the car has sat for a while...then overtime it levels out to more reasonable levels.

    High power consumption at "start up"?

    I notice that right after getting in my car and beginning to drive, the power consumption average (on the trip screen) is very high, upwards of 400-600. This is represented by a high spike on the energy graph as well. After a mile or so, the average declines and the energy consumption starts...

    Sentry and Camera Questions

    No worries. I understand it now. I had looked at the manual but was overanalyzing it :)

    Sentry and Camera Questions

    I did read the manual before I posted. It says that an hour of footage is recorded and constantly overwritten. However, I am able to view the entire hour like it is saved. Is this normal? Also, it says that tapping the red dot icon will turn sentry on and off. However, it still says ON in...

    Sentry and Camera Questions

    When I touch the camera icon on the screen and launch viewer, I am able to view the past hour or so of footage. I thought the camera only saved footage when I tapped the icon or pressed the horn (with that setting activated) and it would only be 10 minutes of footage. How am I able to view an...

    That is FSD Beta Version 9. Only approximately 2000 people were given access to that, as they are beta testers. What you are watching is called auto steer on city streets. A wider release of that version to the public is probably months away.

    Looking at it that way, it wouldn't be worth it. I only drive 6-7K a year.

    Provided Mobile Connector Power Use Questions - Standard Outlet

    I keep it at 81% and got down to 60% this morning. It has been plugged in since 1PM and is up to 68%. It says I have 12 more hours to go... Brutally slow. It takes so long to charge I'm worried my power bill will be brutal. But I guess it isn't drawing that much to start with.

    Provided Mobile Connector Power Use Questions - Standard Outlet

    Yes, the rate is 10-11 cents/kwh. I've been charging an average of 8-10 KWh each day based on my driving habits... so I was trying to calculate how much my electric bill would go up. I got a mid-month projection from Duke Energy today stating my bill was on track to be $85 higher than last...

    Provided Mobile Connector Power Use Questions - Standard Outlet

    I took delivery on June 17 and have only used the provided charger and adapter to charge my Y. I plug into a standard wall outlet and get about 108/109V and 8A. (I can't get more than 8 because of a freezer also on the same circuit in the garage). Questions: 1. When my charging is...

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    2.49% could very well be the floor with "Tesla" themself. But when I completed the paperwork on the Tesla website after I ordered my car, I got an email within 15 minutes that said I had been approved with 1.94% through Chase.

    Best interest rate via Tesla financing?

    The first week in May. My SA told me 2.49% was the best through Tesla. However, I got the 1.94% through the Tesla website, it was just with Chase.

    110/120v Charging Amps Limits

    Not talking about a 240V circuit. I just want one of my 110V outlets in my garage switched to its own dedicated breaker so that I can pull 12A on it instead of 8A.

    110/120v Charging Amps Limits

    Yes, the subpanel is directly in front of my car in the garage. Would it be as simple as unwiring that particular outlet from the breaker and just adding a new breaker for just that outlet?

    110/120v Charging Amps Limits

    Sorry I wasn't clear. My garage has 5 outlets on the various walls. (110V) and they are all on a 15A breaker. I use one of the plugs for the Tesla (8A), one of the plugs has a freezer, and garage door is only other thing plugged in. How easy would it be to put the outlet I'm using to...

    110/120v Charging Amps Limits

    I'm using the standard wall charger but I can only charge at 8A. When I plug it in, it automatically drops it to that level probably because I also have a freezer in my garage. The freezer is plugged into another outlet, but they are all on the "garage" circuit on my breaker. So far, the 8A...

    Anyone regret buying the Acceleration Boost for their Model Y?

    I was dead set on buying this upgrade but I just took delivery of my MY and it is so fast already! Now I'm having second thoughts, though still leaning towards getting it.

    North Carolina Waiting Room

    Delivery still confirmed for tomorrow night. However, just got a call and they realized my current plates (I'm transferring) expire in July so they said I have to get an inspection and pay taxes on my current vehicle. So I'm doing that tonight or tomorrow morning.

    North Carolina Waiting Room

    Wow. and I just got a phone call from my SA to confirm pickup for tomorrow... Maybe it is arriving today on a truck. Edit: I called back and they said it arrived last night. So it must've been in the back or something. Thanks for looking!

    When you are there on Wednesday, can you look for a MSM black interior with 19" wheels and VIN 199xxx? I guess my delivery is still scheduled for Thursday but I haven't heard anything since last week.

    North Carolina Waiting Room

    Thanks for the explanation. It seems like a no brainer for the extra $710. I just wonder if it will affect my loan details and agreement since I set it up with the trade in. I guess as long as I showed up with the same amount of money as my trade-in equity, it wouldn't matter? I'd still...

    Current Delivery Times

    I'm 199xxx and got my VIN almost 3 weeks ago, no delivery yet. I think they are caught back up with production and deliveries and there is more of a gap now between VIN assignment and delivery.

    North Carolina Waiting Room

    Not that I know of. It's a 3% tax. From what I understand, if i bring cash to the deal, the entire price of the car is taxed. If I bring a trade, the price minus the trade is taxed.

    Current Delivery Times

    Still being patient. Ordered 5/1 and got my VIN 5/28. Car *should* be in sometime this week, have delivery appointment on Thursday... Hopefully it gets here sooner. I think my SC is busier than most. The lot is full every single time I go by and they are moving them as quick as they can.

    Current Delivery Times

    Scheduled to take delivery next Monday. Of course my trade-in value expired today... BUT I just got my new offer and it stayed the same. The "pay-off" amount quoted on the offer stayed the same but in actuality is lower now because I've made another payment on the vehicle. I'm guessing...

    I've always gotten a response within 24 hours when contacting my SA. The exception was after I got my VIN, but I chalked it up to Memorial Day weekend. They contacted me on Tuesday and we setup a delivery date. If you are able to drive out there, that's the best bet if you want a really...

    There were some blue model 3s there, can't remember the wheels. I didn't take any photos because it looked much the same as the person who posted photos yesterday.
