    New 19” Gemini wheels and covers - GA

    I would need to stop by a discount tire and get boxes as the ones I have are for 8.5” wheels so can only estimate which I’ll do do tonight. I see you are on the west coast so probably won’t be cheap though

    Should have purchased a CCS adaptor before the road trip

    On our first trip, I went down to 30% and charged for fear of having no battery due to possible traffic or accident on the highway. This was about a week after picking up the Tesla. What I learned is that the faster you go, the more power you use per mile so in reality, traffic helps the range...

    Passenger Airbag OFF resolved

    I have a cover on mine and the airbag shows on sometimes and off at other times when my daughter (about 90 lbs) sits up front. I think the seats do take a little time to break so will just keep an eye on it.

    no traffic re-routing-- would premium connectivity make a difference?

    Tesla navigation and Waze (run in parallel from my phone) helped me avoid traffic on my way back from Orlando last week so that worked well for me.

    New 19” Gemini wheels and covers - GA

    unable to update the original post…local pick up only, no shipping. The boxes that the wheels are in are for 8.5” wheels so the Gemini’s actually stick out a little. I don’t want to risk wheels being damaged while shipping.

    Tint vs no tint measurement

    I can tell you after 10 minutes of the sun hitting the front passenger seat from the front windshield, the black seats are extremely hot to the touch. The portion of the seat that had the sun from the roof was still cool to the touch, which was only slightly warmer compared to where it was...

    Passenger Airbag OFF resolved

    thanks @hellnoICE . I saw the airbag status turn to ON this morning when my daughter had her school backpack on her lap so this makes sense. will verify again this afternoon and have her sit in the back if it does not turn ON w/o the backpack.

    New 19” Gemini wheels and covers - GA

    Hi guys, Just removed the Gemini’s from my new Model Y. They had less than 100 miles on them. These are wheels and covers only. Am located in Alpharetta, GA 30022. Can meet you within reasonable distance if you are local. Shipping also available if you’d like to pay for that. $800 picked...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    no idea either about the bonus. $25 is $25 but nothing to fret about if you don't receive it. In my mind, this just goes towards the $35 I donated to Tower even though I never got to use them. Tower is long gone. I would just keep an eye on this thread to see what the next best CU is (if...

    2023 Model Y Unacceptable Build Quality and Issues

    my service appointment is coming up on Thursday but I already got a message a day after I created the service request that the paint issue is normal and it's due to difference between metal and plastic material. not really concerned about this. I just wish Tesla would have used a non-pearl...

    Is the color mismatch still an issue with white model Y?

    mine has the same thing issue. this is only seen on the bumpers but not on the body panels. I was thinking this line was due to the plastic manufacturing process but not sure. at least your not the only one.

    Full PPF Wrap vs Clearbra

    this is why I'm attempting a full wrap myself as well. on my other car, the scratches are very visible...add to how the door handles are on the MY, I would think it would be even worse. if not for this, I would only be doing the front. they do sell ppf that covers a small area around the...

    one thing about ARMCO and messaging on their portal site, this coming from the agent I spoke to. If you enter a message, that puts you into the queue for them to look at. if later on, you put in a new message, this moves you to the back of the line even though you had a previous message that...

    2023 Model Y Unacceptable Build Quality and Issues

    Update from my side…put in a service request on 2 items yesterday. First the steering is way too sensitive, looks like an issue with toe so will see what the alignment specs are. Second is for the bumper color difference. Already got a message response that the color difference is due to...

    Delivery Today - Rear Driver Panel Different Shade of White!

    My bumpers are slightly different in color seen yesterday on an overcast day. Same thing seen on my LX470 yesterday which is also pearl white. You can sort of see it in my pic above from this morning though. When I spoke with the delivery gal yesterday, she said hers has the same issue and is...

    Got my Y today and it’s nice. No issue with the car other than slight difference in color between the bumpers and the rest of the car (overcast day). At some angles it looks the same. Same issue seen with my LX470 today (also white Pearl). My charger was also installed yesterday and I paid...

    2023 Model Y Unacceptable Build Quality and Issues

    Picked up my Y today and quality was very good. All gaps were even, panels lined up evenly with each other, interior is well put together, glass was fine, etc. The only possible issue I noticed are the bumpers are slightly different in color compared to the body (white color) att certain angles...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    No need to keep calling. They’ll eventually get to it. They won’t give u the loan officer’s direct contact. For the donation, they’ll get that once your membership is approved. I did call a few times but don’t think it helped. They are just busy since everyone started applying for their...

    I use LGE as my local bank. Their rate is 4.75%. ARMCO has special for 3.2% which saves me a good amount.

    Georgia/Atlanta Waiting Room

    Armco CU. Pretty good service but they too are overwhelmed atm…gal I spoke to mentioned they normally do 15-20 auto loans but have over 150 loans do to. But if you start early enough, should be no issue. Especially for 3.2%

    Georgia/Atlanta Waiting Room

    I did not. I had to rescheduled it for tomorrow due to work. and am still waiting on $ from CU...loan has been approved but not yet wired to Tesla. if that doesn't happen, then I'll have to finance via Tesla first, then do a refi.

    I'm sure it's been answered before but how long does it take Tesla finance to do the loan? I may need to go that route and then refinance w/ Armco.

    7 seat waiting room

    Talked to ARMCO CU and doesn't look like they'll be able to wire by noon tomorrow for my pickup. they said most likely tomorrow afternoon. I went ahead and rescheduled my appointment to Friday. Took Tesla a bit of time to respond but pickup date was changed without any issues.

    in order to get the Purchase Agreement, you need to specify who you are financing with. doing so, will generate that doc which you can then submit to your bank/credit union.

    Saw your post and immediately started the membership/loan process with them. So far so good and have a contingent approval from them. Hopefully that will be done by Wednesday noon as that is when I'm scheduled to pick up. btw, 3.2% for 48 months...saves me over a grand in interest. not quite...
