    2020.40.x

    Hmm, just got this, haven't seen this version posted anywhere yet. I got 2020.40.4 a couple days ago. Not expecting anything huge with such a small version increment, but I'm never this early in an update cycle, so that's something, right?

    Why do people Use MS/MX/M3/MY for Tesla's vehicles?

    While an M3 is definitely a BMW, referring to Tesla vehicles this way isn't a forum thing or a YouTube thing; Tesla does it themselves. There's a bit of back story behind this photo. I had ordered some wiper blades for my old Model 3. In addition to the set of blades I ordered, they also shipped...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Yes. At first I thought it was only in reverse, but moving forward at low speed I hear a sound almost like white noise. My immediate reaction was to disconnect it and enjoy the silence as I had on my previous two EVs. The “UFO” sound in reverse is kind of cool in a way, though, and like I said...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I am at 412xxx and so far the only issue I have is something in the headliner above the driver side window resonates if I play music very loudly with a fair amount of bass. Apart from that I have been very pleased with with the quality. Hope you fare as well, and congrats on the new ride!

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Mine's 412xxx. Very pleased with it so far. No rattles, good paint, panels are aligned, and the efficiency is insane compared to my previous Model 3 Performance. Drove around 100 miles at 80-85mph yesterday and averaged 265 Wh/mi. My Model 3 would have been around 340...

    Delivery to Maine

    The temp plates they gave me weren't actually technically legal. They gave me NJ resident plates, which are only legally issuable for vehicles that will be registered in NJ, they should have given me non-resident plates. The statutes also say that it's illegal for them to transfer ownership of a...

    Delivery to Maine

    Congrats on the new car. One question, did they provide the paperwork needed to register the car on delivery? I picked up my S last weekend, and was provided no bill of sale or MCO or any other proof of ownership. Like an idiot, I left the showroom anyway. Now it's on a temporary registration...

    Model S Photo Gallery

    You have good taste. :cool: I just took delivery today, same config. You've already got the pics covered nicely, so I'll hold off til after mods. I have a set of 19" Tsportline TSS in matte black down in the garage to replace the Tempests. Appointment next week for tint and PPF, and talking to a...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I was thinking more along the lines of disconnecting it. :cool: First thing I did when I had a Kia Niro EV (yes, I have an EV addiction problem. at least that one I managed to sell after 11 months without losing a dime).

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Took delivery of my S today, 9/19/20. As I mentioned a couple pages ago, ordered on 8/26. Earliest delivery date available was 9/17 but I waited so as not to take time off work. Made the round trip drive from ME to NJ to pick it up today, saying goodbye to my Model 3. Loving the S so far, really...

    That's to Paramus NJ. I decided to go pick it up rather than wait for home delivery.

    Delivery times now 7-11 weeks

    I think of their estimates about the same as most software progress bars. It gives you a ballpark idea, but doesn't generally match up with reality. I got 6-8 weeks estimate when I ordered my S on 8/26, and now it's available for delivery this Thursday, just over 3 weeks later. (I opted for...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    It did change, of course; it's happening earlier. They texted me today asking if I could take delivery this Thursday, 9/17. Not bad at all for an order on 8/26. Thursday wouldn't work as I started a new job this week, so I moved it to this Saturday, 9/19. I had considered moving it to the 23rd...

    Bubbles/leaking glue MCU screen replacement question

    Anyone know if the yellowing problem still exists on 2020 builds? Or is it too soon to say?

    Cream Interior, Oak Paneling

    Tsportline has a carbon fiber dash kit but it's not cheap. There are probably other alternatives but that's the first that came to mind.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Ordered a new LR Model S, red with black interior and FSD on 8/26. Got my VIN 8/27. Notified today, 9/7, that the car has been built and is on its way to Paramus, NJ. Scheduled delivery for 9/22. I am in Maine but elected to drive down to NJ rather than do home delivery. Can't wait!

    Delivery to Maine

    Huh, I ordered on the 26th and also got my VIN on the 27th. Lower demand and different production line, but I'll hold out hope for similar timing. :) Thanks

    Delivery to Maine

    Ah, yeah, I already worked from home before all this, which has been nice this year. So is yours in route to Paramus? How long did it take to ship once you had a VIN?

    What's the likelihood we will see Speed Limit Sign recognition?

    I've been looking forward to this, as the speed limit data is missing or incorrect much of the time on rural Maine roads. There are a few where proper speed limits will slow me down, but it's far more common that the database will have it at 35 when it's a 50 zone, for example. Went on a drive...

    Delivery to Maine

    I'm in York county and am currently waiting on a Model S order. I can't speak to the other questions as I'm still waiting on delivery, but they told me home delivery would add an additional 7-10 days after the vehicle arrives at the showroom. Note that for legal reasons, ME sales are handled out...

    Loading Kayak Onto Roof Rack

    I have the same setup as the video in the OP, OEM rack with Yakima SweetRoll. You are correct, the shape of the car makes the rollers useless for rear loading. I just muscle it up from the side.
