Force quitting apps equating to battery savings is a persistent myth that just won’t die. I work with Apple engineers for a living and they’re mad with very clear: you actually use more memory and battery by force quitting apps. Pulling apps out of memory and having to reload them is actually...

I got a call from Tesla today that they were far enough ahead on detailing and inspecting my car that they would actually have it done tomorrow morning, and asked if I want delivery tomorrow afternoon. It was originally scheduled for Thursday the 10th. Getting my car a day early! 🙌

No, it’s not worth it. For one, even though Austin will be new from scratch and not a retrofit like Fremont, they’ll still have kinks they need to get out as a new production line. And also the obsession of 4680 batteries has always struck me as odd from a customer perspective. Drivers won’t...

I bought the full Tesmanian set for floor and trunk mats. They’re nice and no frills.

Might depend on your state. I made my down payment today and I paid my taxes/registration at the same time through the app.

My date moved this morning from 2/10-2/14 to 2/6-2/12, and a few hours later I got my delivery text. Scheduled for 2/10!

MYLRs seem to all be coming with Ryzen processors now. No one is getting double pane rear windows.

I was going to do Maplewood for pick up as I was previously told I was just on the edge of their home delivery area, but the SA I’ve been working with since getting my VIN thought it was silly so she said “we’ll figure it out” and set me for home delivery. It was a pleasant surprise! She was...

I just called the main Tesla support line (not our local store) and the rep was able to tell me CPU/battery (Ryzen and 12V li-ion), along with its status (in transit on a train) estimated to show up in Minnesota around 2/8.

Woke up to a VIN this morning! 368XXX. My window is now 2/10 - 2/14.

All of these late August/early September VINs are giving some hope my LR 9/14 order will get a VIN soon. 🤞

Eh, I think the Ioniq 5 looks really great but Edmunds seems to get off on slagging Tesla while giving other manufacturers a pass. Their Twitter thread alone about it is obnoxious and snarky.

That’s awesome, congrats. Now it only your fellow white MYLR Minnesotan brethren could get some good news soon. 😆

It’s from a screenshot someone showed from Australia, and what seems to be happening is that the range hit *also* includes the drop by selection 20” wheels. They’re been making it more clear in the past few months the changes to range when selecting different options on the website. I don’t...

I got that text on Dec. 29th and I also didn’t have a trade-in. Then my EDD moved a month, so I don’t know if it means much.

I’m in there! A friend of mine was one of the first members. That’s a very good community where a lot of them (like /r/realtesla, but sometimes /r/teslamotors) can be pretty toxic. The heat pump issue has been interesting to observe. It does sound like it really is a software issue where...

My impression of them is that they’re mostly short sellers and typical raging trolls, with a handful of real experiences.

At least one upside of ordering in the first half of September: made it in just under the wire for 1000 free Supercharger miles (used a friend's referral code) and the 1 year premium connectivity trial.

I booked out of Maplewood since that’s the closest one to me. I did my test drive out of EP and they people there were really nice.

Not sure if that is correct. I got that text in Dec. 28 and a week later my EDD was pushed out by a month.

There's definitely some logic to that, especially with a lot of September deliveries moving back a month once January rolled around. Lots of holds coming off, shifting others down the list.

My EDD solid for a long time (1/28-2/23), last week moved to 1/6-2/3, but now after the website went down this morning came back back with 2/10-3/10. Kind of a bummer. Going on 110 days now. OD: 9/14 MY LR stock (white/black, Gemini, 5 seater, no FSD), Minnesota. EDD 1: 1/28-2/23 EDD 2...
