I don't agree with Tesla effectively shuttering the charging and product teams for the moment, but acting like the entire network is suddenly up in flames is a bit much - the SC network is still the only usable highway charging infrastructure in America, and it's basically done, at least in the...

Was given an early Plaid loaner, one with the enamel Plaid logo, while I was getting my door card replaced (wrinkle in the leather near the twill trim, replacement was flawless and didn't break anything/introduce new rattles) - was shocked to see how different the interiors are despite looking...

yes, it comes w/ homelink. shockingly, it also comes with SiriusXM if you're curious

Quick update, just got home from the delivery center a little bit ago: car is basically flawless - panels are aligned beautifully, paint is perfect, no seat wrinkles, seals are all cut correctly, no creaks/rattles/wind noise, and everything open, closes, and moves as expected. I'll take some...

Just got called and had to reschedule my delivery to Tuesday after being assured the car was on site and ready for delivery tomorrow (it wasn't)

Tesla legitimately may be one of the worst companies I've ever had to to deal with - the product they eventually deliver is stellar, but every supporting facet of the company makes you want to slam your head into a door just got finished chasing Tesla around to finally get the MVPA generated...

I'm saying that they're claming changes to the car so it doesn't read like the car was never capable of the range estimate to begin with and that the EPA is correcting whatever loopholes Tesla was using to boost their range in the test - which is exactly what they do, and have always done. Tesla...

because saying out loud "the estimate literally does not matter and the car only gets 350 miles per charge in the real world" would sound even worse. these changes to the cycle by the EPA move the estimate closer to reality, but it also makes it so Tesla can no longer claim they sell a 400 mile...

in other news, I'm picking up my red/black/19 '24 MSP on saturday - hopefully everything goes swell

Remember that most of the changes usually literally only matter to the EPA - the battery and drivetrain have likely not been touched. It'll get the same real-world range as it always has (or maybe a little better with new tires), the only change is the estimate

Process change or product change. Juding by the lack of any sort of camo I'm assuming they're just testing some sort of revision to the manufacturing process or some mild parts change that isn't visually apparent in Tesla's case I think that PC change stands for Process/Component change

plaid, ultra red, 19's, steering wheel, black interior

Got assigned a 2024 MSP VIN today at like midnight. my previous VIN was unassigned from my account after they tried to deliver while I was out of state for new years (they would only let me schedule the delivery for a single day, like December 30th or something) order agreement is being upheld...

Outside of the EPA cycle, I doubt any changes they do make would actually affect your day to day range - most electric cars will fail to reach what are often overoptimistic range estimates anyways. The changes they do make are almost certainly just for the cycle test and won't affect you for...

off-topic, but if Tesla suddenly changes their tune about withholding updates until the next model year, and the plaid sports seats are coming with this next batch, I really do hope that the alcantara trim on the bolsters for the leaked sports seats don't make it to production. The faux leather...

Tesla buyers are only group of buyers I've ever seen buy a car based entirely on speculation of a change, and then complain when that change doesn't occur - if you want certain options/features on your car, buy the car when those options/features appear in new deliveries every new Tesla should...

If your account has an order agreement on file, that's the price you pay

Updating your configuration outside of those required by Tesla (like this most current EPA adjustment) does move your spot in the queue from my understanding. Given, that was told to me by two seperate advisors a few years apart, so grain of salt and all that

I would suspect most of the "comfort and functionality" changes are either entirely transparent outwardly (changes in suspension, motors, possibly ventilation(?)) or just software changes like the vibration fix. The dangers of this forum constantly hyping itself up for massive sweeping changes...

I would assume any delay (if there if even is one) is almost entirely due to some sort of inventory shenanigans - Highland went from first being announced to deliveries in Europe in like a month or two, and that was a total overhaul of the Model 3. If there even are changes to the S, it wouldn't...

Why would they compensate for the decreased range estimate? The car is physically identical to those produced and delivered before the reduction, it's a numbers change that doesn't affect the car in any way whatsoever & was out of Tesla's control

I doubt they would start manufacturing an entirely new battery pack for a single trim of a single model - Tesla cuts corners and shares as many parts as they possibly can throughout the entire fleet

Production is done in batches, so you'll start hearing about vin assignments/deliveries again soon (the most recent batch was seemingly less than a week or two ago with EOY deliveries). Outside of unusual circumstance, everything I've seen shows that Tesla's recent timeline has been pretty...

23 Plaid, Ultra Red, 19's, western US. My guess is they are going to continue producing 2023's until the 1st (or later).

Got a message from an advisor, my SP's build date was yesterday. For anyone concerned, they are actively producing cars still. Hang in there!

Just got assigned a vin, it's a 2023.

Unless they're refreshing every single model, I doubt the model year dilemma has anything to do with refreshes. I haven't read of any 2024's being delivered in the US whatsoever

It comes off, it's held on with a bracket with 3M tape

Not sure how accurate this is to current timelines, but my previous M3P was built on 12/10/19, and I picked it up in Salt Lake City, UT two days later. It's certainly possible.

Hey all! Ordered: 11/25 EDD: Moved from late November/early December to Dec-Jan, just moved again to December 20-31. UR Plaid, black interior, 19s.
