That’s good advice. Thanks a ton guys. I sure was shocked when I saw it haha.

Surprised to hear it isn’t painted underneath though, cuz it looks pretty darn blue. But will try the back to black out.

Oh sweet. Okay will try that out. Thanks man.

Eh I dunno man. Most people are talking about discoloration and rainbow effects. It looks like my trim literally washed off (see first picture). I can see blue paint below it. I plan to have this car a long time (10+ years), so I don’t really want to be worried about who washes it with what...

Gotcha, will check it out.

I’ve never heard of a paint issue as extreme as this. One month ago I took delivery of my model Y. After driving it around without issues, it was time for its first car wash. Took it to the Sams club touchless car wash (just water and soap, no touch). I’ve taken my mustang there for years...

It did not. It was done by the big name electrician in Dallas so maybe that’s a part of why it was pricey. I don’t have an itemized receipt. I asked him why it cost so much and he just said that’s the price corporate decided on. On the bright side, I love the charger so far. Very fast.

He installed it directly below the box, he said it was the cheapest way to do it. I’m sure he did it properly and to code since he works for a big local AC/heat/electric/plumbing company. Still surprised it cost so much though.

I had the wall charger installed in my garage. A popular local electric company charged me $1,200. I only went with it because a quote from electricians on Tesla’s website was like $2,000. But I feel like that’s way too much right? My house is a 2016 build and it only took him one hour to...

this thread convinced me to get the fancy Tesla wall charger. The only sticking point is that I might move in 2 years. Is it difficult to uninstall the Tesla wall charger and install it in my new home? I could use it as a selling point when I sell this house, but I’m not sure if the buyers will...

I got my Model Y yesterday. We drove our family of 6 for 90 miles. We love it.

Release the BIN (Baby Identification Number).

Thanks :) i'm in Dallas. Big D! Pretty sure my tesla is from Fremont, looks like a Fremont VIN. **NF457243. I asked if they can deliver it sooner. They said it isn't on the showroom floor yet, but will let me know when it is.

OD was 8/27/2021. They assigned a VIN to me last Friday May 27th. It should be delivered to me on June 11th. Very excited to finally get it. My build is a 7 seater, long range, blue, black interior, with tow hitch, and standard wheels. I didn't order or add FSD. Not sure which computer chip it...

My EDD also narrowed. May 1 thru May 15th now.

I got delayed again. EDD is now May 1 through May 29. On the bright side, seems likely it would be an AMD chip if it is this late.

my order estimate delayed to april 4 through may 2 (very wide range now). Original order date of 8/27/2021.

I guess i'm out of June Jail. updated delivery estimate is March 24 - March 31.

Well, if i get it in june i guess its high high chance to have ADM chip.

Uh oh. They just say "June" for me now. June jail is it? Thats so weird they estimated March 20 - March 31 for me just a few days ago.

with how high gas prices are, and nickel prices going up since apparently russia produces and exports a lot of nickel, now is the time to get an EV delivered for sure.

They tightened the date. New estimate is between March 20 and March 31. Maybe that's a good sign.

estimated delivery date between march 15 and march 31. Hope it sticks :)

Hold on my delivery is gone and my delivery date is TBD.

Haha. Yeah mine is blue, black interior, 19 inch wheels, 7 seater, tow hitch

The AMD Ryzen is much faster though and probably more future-proof, right? I agree its probably not a 'major' deal. But I do plan to have the car with my wife and kids for a long long time. And i'm not in a hurry to get the vehicle, so I guess it's worth a shot.

That's good advice, thanks Firo. I decided to put the order on hold and release the VIN. So i'm back in line, but hopefully can get the good chip soon :) Thanks for your help guys.

I got this message back: "We can remove the VIN and place your order on a 14 day hold. By doing this you will have to take delivery of the next VIN you are assigned or your order will be subjected to auto cancellation. Would you like to proceed with removing the VIN and placing order on a 14...

Sales rep texted me and confirmed its the intel chip. I'm asking them about delaying delivery so that I can get a vin with the AMD ryzen chip. I figure that probably makes sense... I don't really need the vehicle right now, but I plan to keep it for 10 years or longer. Better chip for a little...

Would it be possible to change the processor later on? I'm planning to have my model Y for 10 years or so, and it might come with the intel chip instead of the Ryzen AMD.

oh no :( the rep said my vin doesn't have the lithium ion battery or the AMD chip. i'm asking them again to confirm it, but that sounds not good.

my vin is NF378426. They didnt confirm the battery or chip yet.

!!!! I just got a text that they assigned a VIN to me. Asked if they can confirm the battery and chip yet, they said not yet but will tell me soon.

How do you see what the processor and battery type is? Wanting to know how for when they assign a vin to me (might get one soon)

Wow I didn't realize the current battery is that bad. Ah man. Maybe if they try to deliver my Model Y soon with the bad features, I should delay delivery? I don't really need the car yet. still have my current vehicle.

Why do people want the Ryzen? What's good about it? They changed my delivery date to feb 25 thru March 11.

That may be it yeah. Hopefully we will get them soon :)

Oh yeah, i'm not doing a trade in, and paying in cash. No FSD.

Hey guys, guess I will join the conversation. Originally ordered on August 27th. Current estimated delivery is February 20 through March 20. It keeps getting pushed back. My order is a 7 seater long range with smaller wheels, blue, tow hitch, black interior. I'm in Dallas. Very excited to get...
