    When you bought your first Tesla?

    1) How many people did you know who owned a Tesla? Zero. They aren't common in SC. 2) Did you ride in a Tesla before buying one? Nope 3) Did you test drive one before you bought one? Yes, made two 2-hour trips to our closest SC to test drive. Originally wanted to buy a 3, but didn't like the...

    MY AIRPORT PARKING DRAIN EXPERIENCE

    I had a similar experience the first time I left my MY for an extended time. We took a week long cruise, I turned off all the same stuff, and came back with 5% *more* battery!

    2022 Model Y stops responding to all keys

    Same thing happened to us today. My husband went to the grocery store, and called me saying the car wouldn't go into drive without the card, which he didn't have, although it unlocked for him. I tried sending him remote access from the Tesla app, but he got the message that his phone was already...

    Are rear mud flaps really necessary?

    I went with just the front flaps + the PPF on the corner of the rear doors. The PPF is already pretty chewed up after just 9k miles, so I'd definitely say it's worth the small cost. The rear flaps are in storage in case I ever change my mind.

    Anyone Get Latest UI Update?

    Has anyone noticed issues with auto high beams? Before the update, they would come on at every available opportunity, even if only for a second. Took a 20 mile drive down pitch black country roads last night after updating and they never once activated.

    FYI, I entered this thread on page 1070, and took delivery on 2075 - almost exactly 1,000 pages went by since July 31 🤣

    Well y'all, good things come to those who wait (through EDD madness, through endless refreshes, etc). As of 7:01 PM last night, we are officially Tesla owners! Given our luck, I just KNEW either our trade in (the Audi) was going to blow up, get totaled, or a meteor was going to hit the Tesla...

    Tesla is truly giving me an ulcer - after so many setbacks, delays, and paperwork hurdles, I got a text 5 hours before my pickup time saying I needed VIN specific insurance after two separate SAs told me I didn't in my state. The confusion and mixed messaging continues! 🥲 Hopefully at 6 PM this...

    Well, the blue button finally appeared for me. I've gotten two calls and three texts from my SC today, all confirming tomorrow's pickup at 6 PM 🙌🏽 my 6 month wait is finally coming to an end!

    This may be obvious, but can someone explain the electronic payment options at delivery? Our SA is 2 hours away so I’m nervous about showing up with no down payment arranged. Can I just pay from my bank account on their website once I’m satisfied with the car?

    Don't worry, the ride isn't over once you schedule pickup. It took about 3 days for them to call and schedule my delivery date after my VIN was assigned, and I found out yesterday my car is delayed, so even your delivery appointment isn't set in stone. Enjoy the ride 😅

    I spoke too soon - I called Tesla for an update on transit, they told me it isn’t scheduled to arrive until the day after my original appointment, so we had to push it out by two days. Lesson learned - even after VIN, the roller coaster doesn’t stop 😤

    100 hours until delivery! As long as it's on time, I'll be at 149 days from order to delivery...but who's counting 😎

    Are you picking up in Savannah? That’s where mine will be Monday and it was also a rather long 19 days of transit.

    There is this option from Ingenext for almost half the price, but I'm spooked by the fact that updates can block the module.

    That's a good point - who all is planning on buying acceleration boost? I love the idea, but thinking about forking over *another* $2,000 to Tesla hurts my brain 😅

    100% on all of this. If 5 years down the line my front bumper has some stone chips, I'll have it resprayed for a few hundred bucks.

    I'm 10 days from my delivery appointment, but I never got the email for final payment, and my account page doesn't say anything about it. Is this normal?

    I’m hopeful I can get an earlier date then because the date they gave me is 19 days from VIN; 17 from the day they called to schedule.

    How long did it spend in transit? I'm in the same boat - scheduled for a Monday, but that's not for two more weeks. I'm hoping it gets here sooner since I live 2 hours away from my SA.

    Same here. I placed my order on a one month hold and was put to the back of the line and should be picking up my MY week after next. If the bill passes as written, that just means I might have to order a M3 for my husband!

    Anyone want to chime in with what happens once a VIN is assigned? Specifically: How long until I can expect the text to schedule delivery? Does a VIN mean the car is built but still in the factory somewhere, or does it mean it's loaded on a truck heading out? Any ideas on how long transit takes...

    I've wondered for 6 months what I would say when this day finally came - all I know to say is that I noticed the shortened EDD and didn't even catch the VIN until I went to show my husband. My 6 month wait is FINALLY almost to an end.

    I’m pretty heartbroken right now - my EDD pushed from a 20-day window starting next week and is now a 28-day window pushed out about two weeks. I’m this 🤏🏽 close to canceling my order and grabbing a Polestar 2.

    I'm hoping this is what happens to me as well - my EDD window opens next Tuesday with no VIN in sight.

    It seems like a lot of people here are getting 1-2 days into their EDD, seeing them pushed out once or twice, then getting their VINs. My EDD starts next week, so I'm expecting to see this pattern hold out for me as well.

    Has anyone actually found out the VIN before it's posted by inspecting the page source? I'm wondering how far in advance you can see it that way.

    13 days away from the start of my EDD window, which is still a 20 day span. I would have thought by now it would have begun shrinking...is this a sign my EDD is likely to get pushed back?

    Anyone know if leaving an expired trade in offer on your profile delays things? Also, does the offer get re-run closer to delivery?

    To get the direct deposit discount, do you know if you can sign up for it, get the lower rate, have Tesla match it, then cancel direct deposit? That’s my plan but I’m not sure if that works.

    Is there a consensus on the best course of action when your financing expires - switch to cash until a VIN arrives? Just renew? I’m planning on rate matching Tesla’s offer with DCU.

    EDD is moving on up! Just pulled in by 12 days. Still a 20 day window, which seems like pretty typical until you get closer to VIN day.

    My husband and I did the same thing last night - sat down and seriously discussed switching to a Polestar 2. In the end, we decided that 100 miles less of range for the same money with a much smaller charging network wasn't worth the instant gratification when our MY should be here in late...

    So I called Tesla again today since two weeks ago they told me my VIN should come within…two weeks. I got a totally different answer this time. Instead of “ignore the EDD, you should take delivery around the end of September”, I got “all I can see is your current posted EDD of 10/31-11/20.”...

    Anyone else have a remarkably stable EDD? I see that a lot of people have EDDs that move every day. I've had two "real" ones since July...my most recent one hasn't changed in two weeks.
