Was dropping off my ICE rental car last evening when I spotted a Polestar 2 sitting outside of an Enterprise Rent-A-Car office (north of Pittsburgh). Initially, I was really excited to see one in the wild, and I took a couple of pictures. But then I took a closer look. As shown in one of the...

Ugh. I now recall that I used a Supercharger last Saturday for the first time since September. I only charged to 85% but needed to do it quicker than at home as I needed to leave for a day-long trip. After seeing your response, I am wondering if the mysterious "recalibration" process might be...

my comment on your results is actually a question... how have you been able to keep your range in the 320's for the first 10K miles? Mine dropped into the 310's at 2K and had been steady since until this week.

Original equipment on my MYLR were the 20 inch induction. I swapped them out at 6,100 miles for 19 inch Gemini wheels/tires as winter approached and I wanted to have a decent set of tires for winter driving. So on my chart, you would be able to see that they really had little effect on the...

I received software update 2022.4.5 on 2/12. Per TeslaFi, the estimated range of my MYLR has dropped about 7 miles following that update. Yes, I recognize that it's only been a few days, and that other factors might be at play, but it's something that is visible to me when I look at the chart...

I completed my first road trip last weekend in my MYLR. 809 miles roundtrip from Pittsburgh PA to Lexington KY. A long single-day experience that left me ultra satisfied with the choice to buy a Tesla. I did the trip solo, as my wife didnt want to burn her day driving to Kentucky to pick up a...

These add-on Sirius radios require an external antenna (a small 2x1x1 inch black cube with magnetic mount). The radios come with such an antenna along with a 25-foot wire with connector. I have used several types of these external antennas over the years (been Sirius subscriber since 2005) and...

What about streaming SiriusXM via your phone and using Bluetooth? I did a 14-hour drive yesterday and streamed two full length football games without a problem. Made the day go much nicer! Just make sure that you’ve got an unlimited phone plan.

That’s a beauty! Glad that your delivery went smoothly and the car met your quality expectations. Go #teamwhite

I got my inspection at Hartman's Firestone in Cranberry Twp. My SA suggested to me that they had been sending folks there. I was able to make early morning appointment and was in and out in less than 30 minutes.

Fingers crossed that all goes well for you tomorrow. Post a photo if you can. Congrats!

OMG! Congrats on the blue button! Enjoy the pre-delivery anticipation. The two weeks will fly by for you, I bet.

I did complete a survey following delivery. I emphasized the total lack of information available to the SA's and buyers, and that it was a totally avoidable drag on the overall buying experience. I think that it was wise of Tesla to wait a week post-delivery to ask as driving the car for a few...

That you are to receive a new car with VIN 210*** at this time is interesting. My MYLR was manufactured on 6/14 (per windshield sticker I saw) and it's at the tail-end of the 210*** sequence. I am thinking that your car could have been manufactured first or second week of June. Betting that...

OK I said that it was a newbie question. Solved my own problem by switching off the A/C first. I hang my head in shame.

Hi, here's a newbie question. I have a 2021 MYLR VIN 210*** running 2021.4.18.10. I know that it's the middle of summer but today for some reason I wanted to exercise my voice command skills and I asked that the heated steering wheel be turned on. The on-screen reply that I received is that...

I can report that in the case of my car, the journey from manufacture to it`s arrival in Pittsburgh was just 10 days. On June 24 the car was sitting in the SC lot after its arrival via truck from Chicago (SA tracked it in Chicago the day before). The car still had the windshield bar code...

Here’s a screenshot from my Stats app. The charging is happening at 242wh/mi. As you said, the driver and conditions would dictate how efficiently the energy is used.

I believe that 1kw of charge should give you about 4 miles of travel distance. Here in PA, I am paying 12.3 cents per kw, so I would be paying about 3 cents per mile. You would be paying slightly less than that in NC if I am reading the thread correctly.

I took my MYLR on a four lane highway over the weekend and encountered the phantom braking. If I had not read about the phenomenon on this board, I would have been scared out of my mind. It occurred as i passed under a bridge, and there was an aggrevating factor involved - a disabled vehicle...

To follow up on this message from yesterday, I can report that the car handed over to me was PERFECT in every way. I went over it using the 5-page checklist that can be found elsewhere on this message board (thanks to whomever authored it!), and each and every thing was without flaw. Here in...

I'm feeling like a little kid on Christmas Eve right now. I stopped by the SC this afternoon and found that my MYLR had been delivered there earlier today, just in time for my pick-up appointment at 12:30pm tomorrow. Found it by walking around the lot looking for a VIN match. The passenger...

I was going to reply calling bullshit on Tesla's excuse for the delivery delay. Before doing that I checked and easily found news articles on the derailment. I hang my head in shame. 😳

Wahoo! I got the "schedule your delivery" text this evening! I will be taking delivery this coming Friday afternoon. Here's hoping that some of my Pittsburgh friends will be sharing the truck that it will be arriving on. Kind of an odd change occurred with the scheduling. When the text came...

agreed here. website says that I am to have delivery by end of June and I did get the same email. But I am not paying until I am standing in front of the car ready to drive off the lot.

end of quarter revenue push?

I agree. When the change was announced, it just didn't make sense to me that a decision was purposely made to reduce the number of active sensors that are there to form the safety umbrella for the car. Even if the radar was not the primary input to autopilot and/or FSD decision making, it IS a...

I attended a webinar last night hosted by PA Tesla club and it was mentioned that there's a rumor going around that radar might make a comeback at some point. One person commented that the supplier of the radar to Tesla (Bosch) had encountered chip supply problems that could eventually be...

Thanks! I use Erie already and will have my fingers crossed when I get my quote for the new MYLR.

I hear you. I drove through the Wexford SC parking lot yesterday and there are just a few MY's there. Nothing like what it looked like a couple of weeks ago.

Whew! Just matched with an inventory car already en route to Wexford. VIN 210***. Had to make the change to 20in wheels, which I was OK to do. SC reports that it should be in town in about 10 days. Super pumped!

Welcome to the club.

I suspect that your car is the one that appeared in the available inventory in Cleveland late this afternoon. I hesitated and it looks like you got it. Congrats!

I see the publication date of that article as October 2020.

So funny. Needed that!

I just got back from my local SC, where I had a conversation re:the topic that you are commenting on. Insofar as a SA proactively matching cars, there is almost no opportunity for them to do that as there currently are only a few unmatched cars nationally to match to - 2xMY nationally, for...

SA is Drew. I checked in with him last week via text and he said that he has no ability to influence when I get matched to a car. He seems like a nice guy but powerless to help.

I am also in Pittsburgh and got a new EDD date as of this morning.....

A beauty! Congrats!

Did you attempt to call into Tesla today to speak with someone about your order? In the telecom world, IVR is a term for an Interactive Voice Response system, which could have fielded your incoming call and tried to alert someone.

I have, and no VIN using the source code search.

I also went back to no estimate as of this morning. Formerly was 3-13 weeks for the last few days.

I also went from no estimate to 3-13 weeks this morning. Fingers crossed for progress.

Can someone point me to something that describes Tesla's shipping method from Fremont? Do they ship it end-to-end via truck or do they use rail in places to expedite cross-country deliveries (not trying to talk badly of the trucking industry just making an assumption that rail would be faster).

I saw the tiny model cars in the plastic cases on the center consoles of a bunch of MY's at the Pittsburgh SC on Monday. Sadly, the tiny cars looked like M3's

I am in Pittsburgh but with a much later order date and little hope that I would get a VIN at this point. But I have been scanning for updates from the Pittsburgh folks and am seeing nothing. I am closeby to the service center and might visit after work to see if I can learn something.

Are you picking up in Pittsburgh? I haven't seen a mention of anyone picking up there so far. Day be fore yesterday, there were 87 MY's in the lot there. Thanks!

Ah, finally reached the end of the thread! New pages are being added as quickly as I read through them.

My SA told me the same this today. Said that I still retained the ability to shop the car around for best trade-in deal.
