Great to hear it fits! What's the clearance like with the rack in the vertical position? Can the trunk be opened when in the up position with one rack installed?

More good news: the Tesla Shields first and second row floor mats finally arrived! I just installed them so they'll have to flatten out a bit, but so far they fit really well. I was extra pleased to see they updated the rear seat mat design away from the straight line ridges on their website to...

Charging bundle adapters back in stock NEMA Adapter Bundle

One-ish month update time! We're just shy of 3000 miles despite doing a lot of air travel since picking it up. This is such a joy to drive in all scenarios...except having to find the "Tesla worthy" parking spot to avoid dings when parking lots are full hah ha. Stop and go? Put on Autopilot...

D'oh, ordered in early October. Dunno where February came from.

Well well well it's been awhile, friends! Reading through 60 pages of this thread made me chuckle at the range of topics and frequency with which some resurface. You all are awesome! I thought I'd share some more of my experience I took delivery on 9 Nov. I've been home about 3 days since then...

The heat rejection is what would make me consider tinting. Even if it's all clear, I could see that being useful. But I'll wait and see what it's like in the summer first.

I don't like the Geminis in pictures but I think they look fine in person. I like the looks of the Rimetrix in pictures but haven't seen them in person. Agreed on all points of your thoughts about the inductions.

Have you seen them in person? I dislike them a lot less on my very infant MY than I did through pictures. I saw my twin but with inductions at a supercharger yesterday and wasn't wowed enough for $2k. That said, I could see myself picking up a set of these if they offer a generous sale. I think...

Also, you all went HAM yesterday posting. Seemed like one of the busier days in recent times between VINs, delivery scheduling, and recent deliveries. Congrats to all who are one step closer! If you're lurking and on the fence about ordering and can handle the financial obligation, do it. Full...

We drove over 500 miles on the highway yesterday on a roadtrip. TACC worked great the entire time. Auto steer was fine on open highway. I disengaged auto steer through the many PA construction zones, winding hills, and narrow highway lanes or areas where the markings were all jacked up. The car...

More photos of "Seven"!

I very much am! We're going to be taking several 500 mile road trips through November and December, starting tomorrow, so we'll have plenty of time to get to know each other! Here are some more photos.

I picked up my MY yesterday and tried swapping out the Tesla drive with a SanDisk High Endurance 256GB using Anker USB-C and USB-A card reader and I'm getting this error. Going back to the Tesla drive that came with the car works fine (I haven't reformatted it at all) but the SanDisk errors...

Yes! I picked it up yesterday! I posted in the Current Delivery Times thread. I'll be adding better photos hopefully soon.

No, pushing on either side of the emblem is still the recommended method.

Picked my Red/White MYLR5 up today from Cincinnati! I kept my expectations tempered all day given some of the bad delivery experiences shared here. But that was not us! We showed up, seemingly the only ones taking delivery at that time. I was so enthralled with our delivery I didn't even think...

I agree about the MY Geminis, now. In person they look quite a bit better than my impressions from pictures. Being clean helps. Congrats! It's beautiful! Isn't it surreal being in your garage finally!? #teamred!

That's a lot of moving parts! We're similarly chaotic here. We've had months to prepare yet somehow it's crept up very fast and we're scrambling.

T-2.5 hours here!

Yes.

Now mods are "I bought a $2k acceleration boost and it was an instant upgrade" Pretty crazy to think about.

I'm coming from a Subaru Legacy and excited to compare the snow performance between the two. Snow is apparently in the forecast this coming weekend so we may be testing it out earlier than expected on the return leg of our first road trip with the MY.

Also, I hear a lot of people saying recently they rarely use the frunk. Early on when the frunk was the new fun thing, it seemed the opposite. I guess that's to say it's useful to wait and see how it fits into your usage before dropping the $500+ on that feature.

I dunno if it still does but it didn't show for me. I happened to be messing around through the source code the morning I got my VIN and nothing was there. An hour or so later I got the email and my account showed my VIN.

I'm full expecting like a month-long weaning off checking this forum daily down to occasionally. And instead of profile refreshing I'll probably just obsessively open the app hah ha! Thanks for your perspective on the ride quality. That is my biggest unknown since I haven't driven a Tesla yet...

It's so nice to read of positive experiences! What a relief, I'm sure, for you to receive a well built car. Congrats! I got a call from Tesla this morning and I hoped it was about early delivery, but it was a confirmation for tomorrow. My wife and I will probably do the same joyriding Tuesday...

How was your delivery experience!? Don't forget to pay the picture tax 😂

T-2 days! I cleaned out the garage today to get ready for the new arrival! I'm doing all I can to get these two days to go by. Time has gone soooo sloooow since VINday.

Yeah this gives me ideas. I'm wondering if it can be configured to repeat the Tesla Wifi for a local hotspot. Or as a way to add CarPlay, I know there are other ways out there for this and I'll probably learn to live without it, but I like experimenting.

Awwww yeah! Added to the backlog of projects!

All ports in the MY are USB 3 (number denotes speed). The cabin ones are USB C while the glove box is USB A (letter denotes shape).

Oooh! This is scratching me right where I itch! I'll start with a USB then migrate over to some solution like this probably. Are there special Tesla instructions or basic Pi server type setup and just plug and play with Tesla?

You're probably right about my refusing delivery threshold. I'm holding back on the off chance something happens and Tesla can't produce the car on the current timeline. Several before have paid, had Tesla say "sorry car isn't ready" then waited forever for a resolution. All while being out...

Welp....off to search the forums for which storage method to use and then buy more accessories! I want zero sentry mode regrets!

I messed around with this the other day. I added my bank credentials and it took me to an overlay page to pay. I closed it out and figured I'd just keep the bank connnection staged there until delivery to eliminate one more step. After refreshing the account page though the payment info seemed...

Unless policy changed, this last part doesn't appear true. It's more likely Tesla would cancel after the second or third failed delivery attempt. EDDs and deliveries are too unreliable for that standard to apply. Yes, this sounds right. Not true. My car is being delivered two months ahead of...

Appreciate the update. I'll be plopping in the frunk and trunk mats at the delivery center on Tuesday and hope to have the interior for our first road trip on Thursday! But shipping is a mess so I get it. I'll just have to get over my "slightly used" floor mats instead of "never been used" hah!

Yup, it's only getting worse. I guess the cure is the MY but what's the detox going to consist of? Setting up a chair and gazing starry-eyed at it? That is a whirlwind! I've never financed a vehicle before so I'm just hoping all the legwork is set up fine. I'm jealous yours is early but I'm...

@ArrogantSeeker Congratulations! I'm not surprised there are some 2021s lying around, probably waiting on a last part before they're complete. But who cares if the car is awesome? The progression of your day sounds exactly now mine went. Casual acceptance & denial followed by lots of account...

Oh, true. I omitted the previous price hikes. Definitely look elsewhere then.

I guess you wouldn't get screwed if you wanted to add the inductions since you'll pay $2k more for inductions, $1k more for price increase, but $1k less because MSM is now included. So it'd be just the same as if you ordered inductions from the start. Definitely confirm that with your SA or...

Reddit alerted me to new MY changes. Base price jumped $1k for LR and P. MSM is now a "free" paint color. Solid black now costs $1500. A base MY now costs what my Red/White/Tow MY cost in August. And nearly as much as a fully loaded MY would have run you in February.

That's awesome! I hope I get a similar call! VINs on the same day and yours went further.

That was indeed a long delay. That's ripe for analysis, too. Distribution of time between replies. Redefining MTTR (Mean Time to Reply). I won't be doing that though. I have kept up with this thread's pace, however. Since the beginning of the quarter we've averaged around 92 posts per day...

My wife always complains that she's never been able to name anything ever since her childhood pets. When we ordered I told her to think of a name because this one is on her. So far she's got nothin'. Can you change the name? Because I'm thinking it'll have to start out as PTBNL (the infamous...

Fair points all around. These growing pains were inevitable and one of the reasons I didn't go for the ID.4, IONIQ 5, EV6, or Mach-E. They'll flesh them out in a year or so, and the software in a few years probably. But we needed a car now, so here we are! T-6 days.

To be fair, this is true of Teslas, too, and not limited to electrical.

Awesome! Makes me optimistic about being a mid-quarter delivery. ...oh

Page 1367 for me. Who's been around the longest and is still active? When I went through the entire thread I think I remember spotting @PatrickTM show up around May. That's a lot of likes!
