There is no method. It's the biggest cluster **** in human history. The delivery system is mayhem.That is encouraging as it makes some sense that MSM build batch is early Q4 and you get early Nov and Chicago area is mid-late Nov. Some method to the madness.... Looking for any sliver of hope I suppose and no more of the chip delays etc...
I don't get your meaning but guessing you didn't like my frustration. But you're not in my shoes, so don't judge. I ordered in January (pre-refresh news) and have had no car since December 2020 due to a freak accident (my 2018 Audi A5 sportsback got totaled while in the garage by some absent minded illegal immigrant without a license, I was working from Home).I had to seriously restrain myself with this
I think you have to spend some more time with the yolk. We have all driven vehicles with round steering wheels since we obtained our driver's license, so this is a big change. There is a learning curve and it requires one to change their driving style (how you hold the yolk, etc.)Hi all, long time lurker here. Ordered 04/01 lr white/black 19s no fsd. This is my first tesla and wanted to post my experience. First off, the Edd, it has been mostly non existent until end of july then it started showing August, then a sep date range popped just as everyone saw ranges. So didn’t experience what others did with ever changing and disappearing dates and ranges. Vin was assigned last week of August, had enough time to get the loan process sorted out and finally setup the pickup today. Picked up the vehicle from the delivery lot. Couple of minor issues, but otherwise all good with the car. Interiror, except for that worm on steering wheel , rest is fine. Exterior could have used a thorough cleaning but in the grand scheme of things not a big deal.I got the S as i test drove the prior refresh model and liked it. I was so looking forward to this car and was very excited and now its a mixed feeling. Car dynamics are good but the yoke made it a hellish experience to drive this car. All my complaints are withe yoke. Otherwise the car is good. As others said, i was expecting a learnings curve and was mentally prepared to use the yoke,even occasionally practicing driving my current car with just the bottom part. IMO, i agree with the articles that said ‘yoke is a big joke’. When those articles came out, I thought they were overreacting and it would be fine. Zero practicality what so ever and even an onroad safety risk. It just took away the experience of owning a 90k car. The rectangle steering bottom doesnt fit right in my hands, this is mostly subjective i guess. But everytime i try to use turn signals, i end up manually turning them off when changing lanes. I couldn’t get light tap to work and ended up with hard tap so the signals just stayed on until turned off. Also note that i had to take my eyes away from the road to locate these stupid things. I accidentally hit wrong direction a few times looking like an idiot to other drivers on the road. On the other side , turned on wipers multiple times unintentionally and honked too while taking turns . Turned high beams on without even my knowledge. My hand must have grazed the touch sensitive button as i took a u turn. Rectangular bottom part when doing >90 turns is just awkward.
bottom line, hopefully someone release a round steering wheel for the model s. Else i have to think about keeping this car. Which is hard to think as i was looking forward to this for few months.
if you know of a round steering options from 3p sellers, please let me know. Cant post a picture yet as i m new to this group.
thank you all for reading through this rant. I should have waited to test drive this but didn’t and encourage folks who are on the fence about yoke to test drive and then make a decision.
Thank you all.
You can probably sell the car for more than what you paid and recoup all of your money if it is that bad of a driving experience for you.Yep, as i noted, its only the yoke that made rest of my experience sour., rest is fine. Imo, all these other benefits are great to have but to drive is the main purpose of a car and when that isn’t fulfilled don’t know how much useful it is. Again this is subjective as people bias towards different things. For me it is driving experience, so rest of the factors were secondary.
yeah, should have made the decision after test driving the yoke. I m sure there might be people who are on the fence about yoke, so I wanted to ask them to test drive before making the decision so they don’t get the surprise i did.
Yep, thought did cross my mind. I was thinking of that as a last resort option. Gonna drive it for a couple more days and make the call.You can probably sell the car for more than what you paid and recoup all of your money if it is that bad of a driving experience for you.
You called?Haha yeah, lets stick to this until a 20 something posts a bad experience with yoke and you can pick a different age group.
VIN is imminentMy EDD just slipped from 11/13-12/3 to “February” :sad panda:
based on the last couple people posting that after having November December Dates they switched to February and now they are back to November with a improved EDD no VIN,s unfortunatly.VIN is imminent
Oh I’m pretty certain the aftermarket Tesla websites will have something soonhow long until someone comes up with an attachment on the Yoke so it turns into a Wheel? We'll then call it a Yokeel.
A boy can dream…..based on the last couple people posting that after having November December Dates they switched to February and now they are back to November with a improved EDD no VIN,s unfortunatly.
No man. I had to restrain myself from the pull in-push out comment. My mind went to the gutter I get the frustrationI don't get your meaning but guessing you didn't like my frustration.
