Thanks for sharing your experience. I have just emailed them so I have it in writing in case of lawsuit in the future. For DV, they said to wait for the repair costs. I may just hire a lawyer if the the depreciation seems to be above $10k.

My M3 will be repaired after an acident and other driver's insurance (Progressive) will be paying for it. They refuse to replace it with an EV or a luxury car and they max pay $40/day for an ICE car. Has anyone had an experience with a situation like this? Also, how did you claim diminished...

Mine keeps happening. Stragngely, it happens when my driver profile is loaded. My wife has not noticed an issue.

So my Sentry was working fine initially but now when I get back to car and it shows that there have been Sentry events, it only shows the very first clip that was recorded even though I had deleted it. How do I fix this? I just tried formatting the USB drive and will see if this works.

Oh the other thing I noticed was that the steering wheel would make a squeaky noise when going into easy entry mode (basically rapid movements) but that has gotten better. I guess the rubbers were new and ate now getting adjusted.

Ok, I guess I will wait on the service request. The fit and alignments are really good and everything is flush. I would hate for that to change considering I am probably one of the lucky ones. I mean there is maybe a 2-3 mm asymmetric gap of the rear hatch where it becomes flush with the roof...

Thanks for everyone’s insight. I am scheduling service to have this addressed. I have had new cars before and never had this issue. I noticed pushing the top corner of the door body will help but the amount of force I am applying is twice that of my previous car.

So just got delivery this past weekend. Pretty happy with everything overall. The main issue I have is that I have to really slam the doors to get the to close completely. Otherwise it just half closes. Is this normal/common/known?

You cannot do this. You can only transfer ownership between members of your household.

Took delivery today. Great fit and finish. One minor asymmetric gap of rear hatch on the top but you won’t notice it if you’re not looking for it. Drove 14 miles home. The ride is great on 19 inch wheels. Didn’t feel like it was harsh or firm. Not sure what all the fuss was/is about. I guess...

I am taking delivery tomorrow and I checked with the delivery center. This is the convo:

Yeah, this weekend

got my VIN yesterday. NF423xxx. OD 8/24. MYLR white/white/19/no tow

I agree with most of what you said. However, the interior pales in comparison to Tesla. Driving a Tesla is like driving an iphone and other cars are like old Nokia phones. The software also makes a huge difference. Most other competitors have buggy software let alone all the product launch...

The new SR has 279ish range. The old SR I belive was 245ish. About 14% more range. So the new LR could potentially have about 375ish range. I could be wrong obviously

It’s only MY long range that has a long wait time. Who said Im hating? I am simply pointing out facts

M3 wait time is 3 months fyi. MY performance wait time is also 3 months. The difference is that Tesla is consistently producing cars. Where are the BMWs? They do not have the supply chain of Tesla. I bet if you order now, you won’t see it for 12+ months. Good luck

They do not prioritize customers over dealers. So be prepared to wait for months. If you order yourself, dealer can still ask above MSRP.

They cannot produce it yet. Reservations are 10 months out at least.

Hmm that’s too expensive for 50 miles less range. Whoever can afford $59k could afford $63k as well. Has to be $57k or less to make sense.

FC no mention of price I am assuming?

needs to be at least $6k cheaper than LR

Lol I mean why would they have NDAs? The love the publicity when someone posts online about their new Tesals. They have already announced 4680 MY prodcued at Austin. What is there to hide? Unless there is no viable product yet? One possible scenario is that they are still not ready to begin...

I think the 4680 cells have been a flop and that’s why they don’t say anything about efficiency and range improvement anymore. He said it is safer and lighter and easier to manufacture but no mention of improved efficiency or range. I could be wrong but the whole situation is fishy. They say...

Easier said than done…

Bro the dealers mark it up…good luck finding one at $53k. My local dealer gave me $20k mark up

He said deliveries begin now but where are the VIN numbers? They should have been assigned days earlier.

Well he says he has Aspergers so…

It was a good show but nothing new was disclosed.

How is the ride comfort? Noticeable difference?

I think it’s a possible scenario but there have been VIN numbers issued from Fremont up to last week of March.

What ICE car under $50k comes with those now? That was before the parts shortage bro. Have you recently checked the market? BMW and Mercedes are saving high end features just for their most expensive models. I am geniunly interested if you can send us a link to a luxury ICE under $50k...

Oh wow…the Austin Ys have the cargo cover. That’s great. I hope they add more features equal to what they are saving with structural battery packs.

It’s a first production car. I wouldn’t keep your hopes high. Be ready fir recalls and extended repairs, etc.

Well that’s a you problem. Vast majority of people think otherwise.

Not really. Is iphone not a luxury? It’s simple yet elegant and reliable

You’ll be driving a Hyundai. That’s the main difference. It’s not a luxury brand. I would never pay $60k for a Hyundai. Appropriate alternatives would have been Volvo or Polestar and soon BMW.

Autopilot alone beats any other car’s driver assist package.

I certainly appreciate the competition. Tesla is out of control with their pricing.

It looks hideous tbh not as sexy as M3 or MS

If you don’t need the extra mileage or space ioniq 5 offers, go with Volvo C40. Hyundai is not a luxury brand. You will have to deal with their dealerships for years to come. I wouldn’t trust any dealer who is marking up. I went to test drive Mach E GT the other day and the dealer was bragging...

I don’t think you need to upload anything just like you don’t upload your W2 or 1099. You keep the receipts in case you are audited.

Do you have the link to their summer tests?

Undersurface of the car. If you look underneath, as you pointed out, the holes for the jack placement are different. https://cleantechnica.com/2022/01/15/tesla-adds-model-y-structural-battery-pack-details-in-updated-owners-manual/

Well, apparently the undersurface looks different according to the revised Tesla manual. Next time someone in Austin sees one, they should take a picture of the undersurface.

OD: 8/24 PC: 8/25 Outside (non-Tesla) financing White on white MYLR, no tow, no FSD, 19' wheels Got a VIN in January, but rejected and put on hold, Removed hold in late January. EDD went from June -> March 10-31 -> March 26 -April 6 -> now April 14 to May 12 Obviously Tesla is not "sold out" as...

mine too. I had March 26 - April 6. Now it says April 14 to May 12. Maybe we’ll get an Austin car after Giga fest? 😂

I’m in the same boat. Was looking to buy a second MY but now going to get an X3 instead. If you ever upgrade, your used car value should also be up so you’ll be good there.

I think we can justify price increases all day long but the reality is that a long range Model Y with its current features is not a $70k car (after taxes and fees). An equivalent MB or BMW ICE car has way more features. Now if one is rich and would like to continue to donate to Tesla for...

I test drove one. The interior is smaller than a model 3. The software is way behind Tesla. Otherwise a good car. Not worth the price tag imo
