So I finally got vax'd yesterday morning (J&J) Woke up in the middle of the night with terrible terrible chills, fever, body aches. Had my delivery scheduled at noon today. There was only one thing that would make me leave the house, and thats to pick up my car! Just got home and put her in the garage
Some thoughts: (my first Tesla)
- build quality is meh. Heard alot about this and was hoping it was resolved with the refresh, but i guess not. Panel gaps on the rear trunk are off by a little bit. If you casually close the passenger doors they will not fully latch. Need to close the door with a purposeful amount of force to latch them. The frunk is very difficult to latch. Need to push down pretty hard with two hands. Overall, the car is nowhere near as solid as I would expect for the price.
- Does not come with floor mats?! Like really?
- Its super quick, especially on insane mode. Very fun to drive!
- The yoke is interesting. Will definitely take some getting used to. I was making a left turn off the freeway offramp and 'missed' the wheel since naturally i went for the top of the wheel sometimes.
- sound system is nice. I'll probably end up adding a proper sub at some point.
- I can't skip tracks from the screen when i'm playing music from my phone (apple music). I can see the tracks, but need to chose off my phone.
- the car was dirty on delivery. Not terribly, but definitely wasn't clean. The center compartment sliding wood door has some type of residue on it, nothing serious, but still. Interior was generally a little dusty.
- the leather tesla cap in the center of the steering wheel has some sort of raised wrinkle in it that won't rub out.
Those are my initial thoughts after a quick inspection and driving home (and getting back in bed).
