    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    In Florida. Got VIN last night, completely unexpected, 346xxx. LR 6, black, cream. June 24 to July 2 is the window. We shall see. So I was planning on subscribing for FSD. If and when I get the car do I just subscribe? And then I'll get the auto lane change and NOA immediately while I wait for FSD?

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    As an update, initially the vin stayed on my account and so I was optimistic it would be rerouted to FL. Unfortunately yesterday it got removed and now I am back in the queue I guess. Sigh.

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    I might actually not get the vehicle. It was scheduled for apr 5th but in NJ as my old address was in the north east. I recently moved to Florida and trying to switch delivery to Florida now. The person over telephone changed the delivery location but she cannot be sure this vin will stay with...

    Sorry I'm in Florida now. But maybe that's why it got scheduled, now that you say?

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Got VIN today, was completely unexpected. Only thing I did was post the pictures of my current model S for trade in yesterday. Went to local tesla store to just talk to a SA and she checked and lo and behold i have a vin. She was able to see that just today it was assigned to me. And that it's...

    Fit for garage

    We have a typical 2 car garage. I currently have a model 3 and model S, which fit ok. Not a ton of room lift but maybe a foot or 1.5 feet between the two and 2 feet either side. I am now getting a model X, delivery in a couple of weeks. Wondering how much more space would I need for the X...

    Tesla Cybrtrk

    I think they could have made a better version of this style. They took it to an extreme.

    Help regarding registration in Delaware

    Thanks for the reply. Its already been 4 weeks, which is why I was trying to make sure they actually sent it. She kept giving me a generic answer. Whereas somebody else I spoke to was asking my Temp registration number and was trying to make sure docs were sent.

    Help regarding registration in Delaware

    I took delivery of new Model 3 end of June from the Tesla store at Devon. I believe to register the vehicle here in De I will need documents which are to be sent by Tesla. The lady I spoke to today gave me a strong vibe of not knowing what she is talking about. She told me to wait for the...

    Model 3 Financing In Delaware

    I am in Delaware, just ordered Model 3. Already have Model S with loan with Alliant. What do you guys think is a decent option to look at for auto loan here? Tesla said they don't do anything in Delaware. Thanks in advance.

    Supercharger - Dover, DE

    The navigating on the car shows the supercharger as available while it was unavailable till a couple of days ago. If anybody needs me to, I can physical confirm tomorrow. Just let me know if you need me to.

    MCU is dead, car is bricked, Tesla is being unforgivably terrible

    This is the drawback I tell people too. Although it has gotten better compared to lay year at least at the body shop I used.

    So frustrated with the HEAT in my model S

    I have a Sep 2017 S 75D. I have always had this issue. I just figured it was the way their heating was, just thought it was poor. I always end up using hi and once its fairly toasty either turn it off or keep the fan at 1. Part of it is me, I like it hotter than most. At the same time in my...

    Would you give up free supercharging for life?

    I would for 400 mile range/newer MCU but at a price point of around 75K.

    Dumb Questions about enhanced summon

    At this point it's still a bit of a gimmick imo. It's a little too slow (and rightly so) for real use in parking lots of supermarkets or malls. Not sure about inclines. Doubtful about speed bumps. It most definitely won't navigate potholes. I doubt it will know one way in parking lots.

    Mobile service for annual service

    Thank you so much guys for all of your replies. Helps a lot. Its a first service. So should not be an issue with mobile service I think. Thanks again

    Mobile service for annual service

    How is it? Convenient I guess but they should be able to do everything they need to right? Is it more expensive? Asking for friend. He does not have the maintenance package. On the same lines, 2nd service has to be at the center? Thanks for the help.

    US Federal $7,500 Electric Vehicle Credit Expiry Date By Automaker

    Its a bit of a wash, either pay the remaining lease payments early to get out and get tax refund or wait till I finish paying lease payments by which time tax credit is no longer available.

    US Federal $7,500 Electric Vehicle Credit Expiry Date By Automaker

    Forgive me if this is a stupid question. Should I take delivery before the end of the year to avail the tax credit or placing the order before year end is enough? Have a lease on another car till Oct 19, so ideally placing it as late as possible helps.

    So, Do I Take The Car or Not?

    The later you take delivery in a quarter I think the higher the quality issues. So depending on when you take delivery, if there is a next time, quality control might be better. I took delivery of a silver car sep 25th last year. No paint issues. Although I may have missed stuff.

    Sudden braking occurring during autopilot

    Have had phantom braking maybe 2 times in the last year I've had the car. Not sure of the circumstances. I use follow distance of 4 mostly and 3 occasionally.

    What capability does a current 2018 Model S have WITHOUT Enhanced Autopilot

    Pretty sure that's not right. To be honest I'm not even sure if they even have adaptive cruise control as an option, forget about standard.

    Elon Musk

    I think we should not look at it from the viewpoint of haters vs fanbois. And its not about optics either. Its plain simple wrong, no? The fact of the matter is his tweet is unacceptable, whether you are a hater or a fanboi, no?

    Looking for some wisdom for choosing 75D vs 100D

    My rated range for 75D on 100% charge has always been 250 from the beginning. Never 259. Do you get 259 on 100% charge?

    Looking for some wisdom for choosing 75D vs 100D

    I have no doubts about that. Particularly as you are leasing you can switch to higher battery based on your experience in these years. Am example of a drive where I wish I had 100 D: I driving to a friend's place for a weekend which is 235 miles away. Wouldn't have to stop to charge if I had a...

    Looking for some wisdom for choosing 75D vs 100D

    I have 75D. The one scenario I see where I wish I had the 100D which I have had a couple of times is travelling distances of one way of 90-100 miles somewhere. To elucidate, recent trip to a beach town about 100 miles away. So right off the bat I need 200 miles at least which equals to 210 -220...

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    Yes. Off my freeway, on the exit it went from 65 to 55 to 50 to 45 to 35 to 25 by the time I came to intersection. Previously used to tap down to 50 on TACC myself as soon as I got on the exit and it would stay at 50 till I took over at intersection.

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    Only drove it on freeway for 25 miles yesterday but to me its clear how the nag is working. Hands off the wheel it took 20s consistently for the nag to appear. Right hand rested on the bottom led to no nag for 20 minutes. Clearly less torque resistance needed to show your hands are on the wheel...

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    Fair point except I have one question. Does it slow down on regular exits that are straight or on curved ramps?
  41. R

    Software Update 2018.21.9 75bdbc11

    Same here. I am on 18.14 and TACC and autosteer have been slowing down on curves for me before this release too. Whether its a big curve in freeway or a big curve on exit off freeway. I have literally a circular ramp on to the freeway and whatever I set the speed to, it takes the curve at 40-45 mph.

    Lease trade in

    Return it and get a new one. You have already paid a lot of interest in that lease. I was gonna say just give it back and get new one. You have to actually do the math. How much you have paid and how much you still have to pay to own it. If that total is more than price of a new one, obviously...

    Anyone missing Autopilot?

    Not related to firmware as I am on 2018.14.2 and this has happened to me a couple of times before. Randomly. Usually just try to reboot it or give it some time and it works fine.

    So torn... P100D or something else - lease is up.

    I'm not sure if it's an option but could you extend the lease by a couple of months or so and look out for any changes and give yourself some more time? I did that but it was for a Nissan. Can't hurt to ask if you want to get some more time. Fwiw if money was no object a loaded 100D is the only...

    TACC saved me this weekend. Still think it’s better on average...

    That sounds like the youtube video where the model S braked because a vehicle 2 cars in front had braked suddenly. Similar situation? So your Model S slowed down cuz the truck in front of the F150 in front of you had braked suddenly. Am I understanding this right? That's impressive no?
