I did 84 months at 1.99, and will probably pay it off in 50-60 without penalty. Low cost to borrow means I can use cash for investments that will make significantly more money than the cost to borrow, and this gives me the most flexibility.

quick update, sounds like hurricane Ida is impacting the timeline for my delivery. Car is on a train currently, and they think it’s likely it takes a few more days to get to charlotte than what they previously anticipated. Scheduled delivery has moved from the 8th to the 10th.

I haven’t heard anything from Tesla, but called their 800 number and scheduled a delivery date for Sept 8th. The car is on a train and is supposed to arrive in charlotte on Sept 5th. My VIN is 251XXX. Are you the same dude who bought a model 3 back in sept 2018? If so, we were in the same...

It was posted above. Carolina cooperative requires a $5 deposit to start a savings account. No application fee. Everyone qualifies to become a member.

Now that I have your attention….Carolina cooperative credit union (Carolina Cooperative FCU) in Charlotte will do a 1.99%, no money down, up to 84 months for credit scores above 730. They will do this nationally (you have to be a member and can become one by joining a specific NC commerce...

Awesome! I got my VIN yesterday, which is 251xxx.

Ordered MYP white/white, 5 seat, no tow, no FSD. Ordered on 7/31.

My EDD changed to Sept 1-4, which is the soonest and most narrow window I have seen yet.

Yeah I didnt think they can recognize revenue if the vehicle is still sitting on the books though. Balance sheet would be out of wack.

Sorry, 5-7 weeks. Was so excited to get a VIN.

I just got a VIN, but delivery update is now 5-7 days (when it was previously Aug 28 - Sept 10). Also asking me to make final payment, which seems early for delivery in 5-7 weeks. Thoughts?

I am now showing an EDD of Aug 28th - Sept 10th.

Ordered a LR on July 31st, with an EDD of December. Changed to the performance on august 2nd with an EDD of 7-9 weeks. EDD updated yesterday to Aug 19-sept 15, and updated today to aug 20-sept 15.

I am in Charlotte also, and have a white/white performance ordered. My EDD is currently Aug 20 - Sept 15th, and was Aug 19th-Sept 15th yesterday. Tesla is asking for proof of insurance now, but says the VIN must be listed on the policy. Imagine I will get the VIN a few days before actual...

Ordered long range on July 31st, white on white with upgraded wheels. EDD was December. Switched to a performance Y on august 2nd, and EDD was 7-9 weeks. As of this morning, it’s now August 19th - September 15th.

Just ordered on Saturday, LR white/white with upgraded wheel….had an EDD of December. Changed on Monday to performance, and EDD moved to 7-9 weeks. This morning it changed to August 19 - September 15.

Did you resolve this? I am having the exact same issue. Thanks.

Curious how much the tpms are from Tesla for model Y?

That's a good question. Where do I find that setting to check?

Anyone else notice, in normal summon, there are times when it will let you take your finger off "forward" or "reverse", and a "Stop" button shows up on the screen. If you remove your finger from "forward" the car will still move forward until you press "Stop".

My daughter just renamed my car to Panda (Black exterior and white interior)

Ok, how about this. Not sure why you would need 4 stops. You could potentially get away with just 2 stops, but 3 for sure. :) In any event, enjoy the drive and HHI.

Its about 570 miles...not sure why you would need 4 stops. You could potentially get away with just 1 stop, but two for sure.

Anyone know if this is a v2 or v3 supercharger?

I think driverless cars in a parking lot are going to be quite difficult. As pedestrians walking in a parking lot, we frequently look to make eye contact with drivers to ensure they see us, followed by a driver "waving you on" and a subsequent "thank you wave". These three items (eye contact...

True, but I would argue most humans wouldn't even be able to determine what "school days only" means. Is it Monday to Friday? What about "Sunday School" that many religious affiliated schools have. What about a summer break, Christmas break, fall break, spring break, or any other holiday...

Historically speaking, "weeks" means "months, and "months" means "years" to Tesla...

Where do you see the event will be at 2pm ET? Tesla's IR website doesn't even show a time...

It occurred to me that if it were a day the event wouldn't start at 11:00 PST, as you noted in your follow up post...

So you turned "it will increase by something like $3,000" into "By the way, Tesla is increasing the price of FSD to a whopping $8,000 after May 1st"?

Where do you get this from? I assume what Elon tweeted yesterday, which was far from conclusive on the amount and timing. And taken with all of the recent price increases/decreases over the last 60 days, it would be ridiculous to state the price is being increased to $8k on may 1 with any...

What does more at 11 mean? I follow you on Twitter and very interested in what you have to share.

So you are basically saying you expect to receive what Tesla already said they will deliver? You used a lot of words to say that...

Or did he mean "we will definitely do this"....and left of the we will...do this" part?

This post is like reading Electrek....Elon tweets a one word answer and people turn it into "a thing"...

Pretty sure traffic light detection doesn't do anything right now....would hardly call that a feature that has been rolled out. I am super excited about the 22nd though!

Elon also said this would be out in approximately 6 weeks...back in November.

A million percent agree. Obviously Tesla isn't anywhere near launching the Tesla Network....

Pretty sure he was being facetious in a "fool me once, shame on you....fool me twice (or three times or four times) shame on me" kind of way...

I was asked for the source in which I referenced Tesla Network details being provided on April 22nd. The fact is, Elon tweeted it, which was the source. Now whether its a smoke and mirrors show, or something else, is still tbd. I think it is amusing when people indicate this is about...

Elons Tweet this morning...

Tesla network details coming April 22nd...

Snippet from the Tesla blog post, which clearly indicates NoA can be set to "enable at start of every trip" which has the option of not requiring a lane change confirmation, contrary to what you indicate above: ******* In the Autopilot settings menu, a driver can press the Customize Navigate on...

@Bladerskb - thought you said you were taking a break until April 19th? Perhaps this is the first time in the history of TMC that you were wrong??

Congratulations...you are the third person to post this in this forum.

Do you think it is possible Tesla knows something today that they didn't know yesterday? At the pace of innovation and change, I think it is highly possible. I get what Elon said yesterday, which was fact at the time. I also recall, prior to the Model 3 coming out, that Elon/Tesla said the...

My sense is what Troy is saying, is that in the event of additional changes needed in the future, naturally, HW3 will likely be more future proof than HW2.5. I think that is probably something we can all agree on and impossible to dispute. So if given a chance, take HW3 over HW2.5.

Can you point to where this is already happening? I hope it happens soon, but haven't seen any indication of this in the Charlotte or Atlanta areas...

Will give that a try. Thanks!
