    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    For tesla that seems like an impossibility high offer. I'd take that without delay.

    I agree they COULD but don't think for second that they will.

    That would make it faster than the P90DL.

    Plaid Drag Racing - Not such a great night

    I don't think they're going to do this for any already sold cars and my guess is that any real power upgrades will have some hardware upgrades even if minor. My guess is they'll introduce Plaid Plus with the track pack factory installed (no option to not have it unless you want the regular...

    POLL: vibration felt when slightly accelerating refresh Mode S Plaid or LR

    And this vibration is not the one in the title of this thread.

    "Refreshed" Model S model VIBRATION tracking and information thread!!!

    Yup. The only caveat is if Toolbox prevents you from entering a value that is too far above some expected range as a sanity check.

    "Refreshed" Model S model VIBRATION tracking and information thread!!!

    It can't. The only way to lower the car without lowering links is to do a ride height calibration with Toolbox 3 and LIE about height of the 4 measurement reference points. So if you want to lower the car by an inch, you have to add an inch to the measured height of each reference location.

    Tesla Virtual Power Plant in CA

    I have 3 powerwalls. Seems like per kwh, this is a better deal than it was before. I'm used to charging to 100% and turning everything off so that I can discharge them entirely over the 3 or 4 hour events. The year before, the payout was $538. Last year was only $305 with fewer events for the...

    My lifetime average so for on my MSP is 270 wh/mile, but that includes all the short in town trips where I'm lead footing it and two ski trips to the mountains. Averaging more like 250 on longish drives (was 255 when it was a little colder). As it warms up more, I expect it to go closer to 245...

    "Refreshed" Model S model VIBRATION tracking and information thread!!!

    The issue fixed by lowering the car is the same issue that has resulted in endless cv/half shaft replacements for the last 10 years. I went through 3 sets of replacements myself on my P85D until I lowered the car an inch. I should say "re-lowered", because that inch lowering was just returning...

    Tesla assumes limited liability with each policy they underwrite. There's no upper limit if a claimed L4 vehicle causes deaths.

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    Exactly. And gap insurance is something that financing companies will force on buyers when they're doing a zero down. Nobody ever chooses to buy gap insurance since it increases the payment.

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    2. That's not a thing. If you have gap insurance, which costs, then you're covered, but then your paying more for financing. Your responses for 1 and 3 literally make no sense.

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    People don't like it when they're charged a lot more money for something they could have paid a lot less for. Sudden large price drops put a lot of folks under water on their loans increasing the odds of their car being totaled after an accident and having to write the bank a check just to pay...

    Tesla drops prices on X/S $20k. All colors free. Bye bye resale

    I would happily pay $150K for an MSP if it came with great assembly (even at the current material quality level) and great service. Nothing competes with it for the current or even previous price.

    FSD now $99 a month

    No matter how good it gets, it will never be L4 or L5 even if it can actually drive at that level because to certify it not needing driver attention also means the manufacturer is on the hook for all liability which Tesla will NEVER assume.

    Again, this has nothing to do with financing with Tesla offers in Michigan.

    So when it Tesla going to remove the "fastest accelerating car in production today" from the site? Now it could be argued the Sapphire is not yet a production car but rather a "limited production" car based on it's numbers which is technically a different category than "production car". Also...

    Plaid Drag Racing - Not such a great night

    Andrew is still trapping 152 with 9.2s with well over 1000+ runs on original factory tires. I don't think the change to control the vibration comes into effect at full throttle.

    Thinking of selling my plaid and going back to 2020 P100d

    My pre raven P85D was razer sharp(a little harsh), telepathic, and felt small and light. My S Plaid is actually lighter be several hundred lbs but it feels like a larger car with less steering feedback.

    Agreed. The wheel doesn't block any of the screen for me. I don't notice that its any different than it was in my P85D.

    The Plaid is severely traction limited up to 60 mph. The real comparison should be passing speed from 70-90 mph. The MSP is twice as fast compared to the MSLR in this metric.

    "Refreshed" Model S model VIBRATION tracking and information thread!!!

    Didn't we lose 48 miles of range ;) All joking aside, I don't think it's a change under light acceleration but under moderate...although that is a subjective term. If you get on the freeway and use cruise control, this change should not factor into before and after change range.
