Welcome aboard! Addiction right around the corner. Not a week goes by for me that I don't learn something new about the car. Enjoy the TMC and Tesla rides!
I would dely deliver. If you don't dely and decide on storage for three months find a place to have it plugged in. Check w/ Tesla a simple 110 outlet might be enough. If not find a friend to charge it once a week.
Ok I give. When and where is TMC Connect 2015? I am still checking this thread for 2014 videos which I hope to view someday. Until then I would like to plan for 2015.
Doug do what you can we have heard nothing but great things associated with your name. thanks!
I took delivery a few weeks ago and this is who I choose to perform for paint protection and CQuartz.

iadbound - got my MS last week running 5.14 BT has work every time. Using iPhone 6+ iOS 8.0. Just a thought. You might delete your current BT pairing and then setup the phone.
VIN 498xx 2-3 days to build, build completed Friday, Pickup in Dallas SC on the following Wednesday. First time I have driven a MS. Wow what a "rocket". No issues all is GREAT! Original delivery date 9/4. Actual date 9/17.
SC rocks they are receiving 23 cars before the end of the month. They...
Stop at a 7-11 for a drink. As I was exiting the store, the person coming in looked at me and said, "nice car". I guess the Tesla Grin gave me away. Had the car 36 hours loving every minute!
Our ACC on the Avalon has a laser system. The parking sensors give a warning of cross traffic when backing up. The warnings have been triggered by cars moving into the backup area 100 yards away.
Chickenlittle perhaps the thread could be titled "Abuse of the forum". At the very least the Roadster Thread should be under Roadster.
While I appreciate your post, don't you think most people grow tired of trying to assist someone who claim a technical issues but really want everyone to...
Thanks for pulling this together. My MS shows up next week. Since I confirmed 6/5 and around 7/15 the Parcel Self is included. They adjusted my price by $250.
First I am honored to be associated with such a diverse group. Semi retired taking care of my mother with Alzheimer's. Spent over 30 yrs in IT specializing in network connectivity from single systems all the way to 120+ countries all tied together accessing common systems. Mostly consulted to...
LonghornDub congratulations! Looks like things are moving. Here is my update from last night "Production Complete
Your Model S is being prepared for pickup or delivery." VIN 498xx confirmed 6/5
Phatman - I got the build time from post 6852 in this thread I posted a few weeks ago... See blow. I was amazed they can turn them out that fast. They redid the line to handle 3000 units a week MS or MX. It will probably take a year or more to get things running that speed and maintain quality...
phatman - in a normal setting my understanding was 3 day on the old line and once the kinks are worked out it will take 2 days on the new production line.
Congratulation LonghornDub! Production batch runs are killing me... Business as usual. Your VIN 50xxx my VIN 498xx both set for delivery in Texas. Yours built mine in queue.
Mike - per Elon 6.0 will be out soon... Other than beta testers I don't think anyone has seen it. Beta tester are under NDA's. Last rumor I saw thought 6.0 might be linked to Apple iOS 8 being announced. Your guess is as good as any. FYI
ROCDOC You give me hope VIN#49836 still in queue but checking 4-15 times a day. I think I maybe developing a bad habit. Overall very optimistic. Congratulation on your update!!!

All is not lost! In a few years thing may turn around, the wait time will be less, the range a little better and 6.0 might be released. I cancelled my original order Sig #113 due to a house purchase and remodeling cost. Things happen. Bottom line Tesla will be here once things get...
LonghornDub- your VIN is about 40+ greater than mine. My status is "Production Queue". I have an email off to my DS as of tonight. My DS and Tesla overall have been great to keep me posted. My best guess is your MS will arrive first. Mine should follow shortly as the line catches up. That is...
Bonnie I agree with everything except your last sentence. This car company is magical! They are putting processes in place to give new owners a "feel" for where their car is in the process. Communication is a powerful tool to keep buyers informed and anticipation in check. I have actually been...
My status got changed to like many other to the production que. I am very comfortable Tesla will deliver my MS within the next two weeks VIN 498xx. The delay is reasonable IMO and it seems others are not pleased with the delay. Tesla is growing and I see this minor delay as very minor. We have...
@Bonnie thank you for the read out. Nothing beats boots on the ground. Two questions for you:
1- Did you depart Tesla more optimistic than when you arrived?
2- Overall could you comment on employee moral and attitude. We took the original factory tour pre production. At that time moral was sky...
I can live with a delayed delivery. Tesla is a startup bringing a disruptive car into a entrenched industry. Frankly I might be more concerned if they cranked out cars, delivered them and then checked the quality. I may get push back about being a startup but they are IMO. They way I look at it...
Wow, thanks for sharing the pics. Any chance you tested decibel level pre and post work on the same road? Overall how do you feel the noise level has been reduced? I noticed in another thread you mentions the stereo sounded much better.
My 498xx planned delivery Sept 4. DS last Friday said it would be close but he thought they could meet this date. Today 500xx who was scheduled Sept 4 delivery got a call from their DS pushing out delivery at least 2 weeks.
Has anyone had a delivery after August 18? Or even had their status...
Checked with my DS yesterday 8/21/14. They are saying the line is about a week behind but is running well after resolving some things on the new line starting up. I am scheduled Sept 4, 2014 for delivery and they are sticking to that date. Saying the build takes two days and I should stay tuned...
Welcome aboard! My Peal White shows up in two weeks. The wait has been tolerable reading reading and reading some more. I find myself treating my ICE like a MS half the time. Silly things like ICE lining up to the HPWC so I can plug it in once the MS arrives. Without a doubt the best decisions I...
Thank for explaining the ability to control the energy usage... Reasonable speed, a little planning, etc. RV Parks seem open to allowing overnight charges. Good information, thank you.
Until I read your trip report, I was having FUD about not driving the SuperCharger routes. And since we are on the Texas SC island I thought we were stuck. Now I realize my adventure begins with a little more planning. Good bye FUD, hello open road. Thank you for sharing.
SkiWA - talked to my DS yesterday he said 2 days to build. Maybe the build time is shorter with the new line, not sure. I confirmed my order 6/5 with deliver in September, 9/4 potential. If I were you I would seriously consider taking a long weekend and pickup your car in Fremont. You would need...
We singed up for free night effective Aug 21. Went the next step and installed 10kW Solar system. So far so good avg kW per day is 50 for the month. Been busy trying to distract myself Model S deliver September 2014! Chris Tx we are looking forward to charging at night. I see you got the Pano. I...
chickenevil- HPWC installed. Model S due early September. I probably could have passed on this but my personality some times wants things NOW so I got the fastest charger for the home I could. BTW is it true I am limited to one post for each month I have been a member? I am almost at my limit :-)
Listening to Slacker WTF with Marc Maron last interview with Robin Williams. Very raw interview, what a brilliant mind. R.I.P. Thank for all you brought the world of entertainment.
