    Letter “R” under the clear coat of the paint on a new “inventory” Tesla model Y

    I picked up a 2024 model y from Tesla in Dedham Ma, and had the same "R" on my roof. I noticed it on inspection and they were able to remove it. Do you have any knowledge as to what this "R" is supposed to mean?

    Discussion: Model 3 Price reductions - Jan / April / Oct 2023 and all other pricing discussions

    Your purchase price is actually 27770 + 1390 delivery fee + 250 order fee (which you paid when you ordered). Which means after all your discounts and future tax credits, your sales price is 29410. But wait there's more, you didn't include mass sales tax which is 6.25% of the discounted price and...

    Not powerful enough to completely inflate an auto tire, more for a bike tire or just adding a few lbs to auto tire. Get one that either is powered by car's 12vdc, lion rechargable battery, or 120 vac.

    The problem with Tesla isn't that they lack the ability and assembly process to build a quality car. It's that they are currently so hell bent on meeting production demands that they have thrown QC out the window. This is evident by just looking at the difference in delivered vehicles, some very...

    It's a shame that on a brand new 50k car that you have to deal with this crap. I also notice from your pics, driver's side rear hatch gap too large, and there appears to be a paint drip on the outer lip. I'm done with any future Tesla's until they improve the quality.

    Excise tax is based on a vehicle's average valuation, and not on a specific sales transaction. Because these fees are pert of the cost to acquire a model Y, I'm certain they effect average valuation.

    Those are directional wheel covers, and you didn't put them on correctly. Front is different than rear on your car.

    Austin seems to have a problem with putting their doors on even. In the past 4 months, I have rejected 2 model Y's, one a LRAWD out of Texas that had front passenger door that was misaligned top to bottom. This was replaced by my current LRAWD out of Freemont, perfect. The second reject was last...

    If you look on the website at any of the demos for sale, you'll see when the warranties, both bumper to bumper and battery, expire.

    One caution about al these demo units, the factory warranty starts when the vehicle becomes a demo, not when you take delivery. In some cases that could mean as much as 2-3 months less warranty coverage vs. new.

    As we go back and forth on vins, keep in mind that AWD vins do not coincide with LRAWD vins. I have an AWD that I'm taking delivery on 3/20, whose build date is 3/5. It's vin is PA081xxx. I think during that same build week, I've seen LRAWD vins in the PA084xxx range. I think Tesla may specify a...

    $52990 is the current price. Price in January would have been $51990 (50990 base plus 1000 for silver). They do not honor the January price because you didn't order a standard range in January. Actually no one ordered a standard range in January because it's an off menu vehicle.

    One more suggestion, do not get EAP, but instead, once you take delivery subscribe to FSD. It's $199 a month, and then you will be able to fully evaluate EAP before donating 6k to Elon's coffers.

    Just a note about EAP. Your car does not have ultra sonic sensors, so summon and self parking will not work until Tesla figures out how to make them work with vision only. That means you're paying 6k for auto lane change. I would wait and see if Tesla figures out the vision only solution before...

    There are 2 rear motors, one is the standard used in the SRAWD and the LRAWD, and the other is a more powerful one used in the performance models. Don't confuse the standard motor with standard range, they are 2 different things.

    That's because it is a "standard drive" and not a performance model which has a bigger rear motor.

    Tesla tries to get you to pay before delivery, but you don't have to. Paying with EFT is the same as paying with cashier's check. If you don't give cashier's check before delivery, then don't transfer funds before delivery. Then there is no need to worry about a refund if you reject. FYI this is...

    I have paid electronic fund transfer (EFT) via the plaid app which is how Tesla does EFT payments. I did not pay until after inspecting accepting the vehicle on delivery day. It works just as well as handing over a cashier's check on delivery.

    The OP statement was that his Model 3 was worth more today than what he paid for it. If you define worth as what the car is valued as resale value, then the statement is untrue.

    Not sure where you're getting your used car values, but right now the value of used Tesla's is down, just like the stock. Try seeing how much someone is willing to pay you for your car, and not what other people are hoping to get on ones they're trying to sell.

    It's not Tesla/Elon making political views public, it's Elon alone, and it's hurting Tesla. Just because other companies have made their political views public doesn't mean that it's a sound business practice. You have nothing to gain, and much to lose.

    I'm referring to Elon's conduct as CEO of Tesla. In case you haven't noticed stock has plummeted 60% so far this year, sales are down, and don't believe that it doesn't have anything to do with his actions and political statements at Twitter. Any responsible CEO, company, or corporation never...
