    Last time I looked with Tesla it was about $2,000 lower than Vroom who had the highest. But it would bring taxes down by about $1500 so for $500 less it would be much easier as I live 4 hours from where I am picking up the car and wouldn’t need to find alternative transportation

    We went through the same though process. Trade in used to get to the delivery center 5 hours away (OKC to Kansas City) would be nice, except taking a bath on trade $$$. We went with a rental car one way and drove up the day before and still came out way $$$ ahead by not trading in.

    Picked up my LR AWD yesterday [3/3] from the Indianapolis delivery center. Great experience all around as the car was ready ahead of time and sitting out front. From my perspective the car was near perfect with no noticeable panel gap or paint issues. Some minor scratches on rear taillight plastic that they buffed out while there. In and out in about 20 mins for my 2 hour drive home. Heated steering wheel works great!

    Picture post removing the aero covers. Now on to trying to figure out what to do with the 1 hr per day I will get back not refreshing my account page. Good luck to all those awaiting delivery.

    Checked my EDD and now it’s March 6-31.

    Also, got my loan revert back to the one paying more upfront but with lower rate. Checking this morning, they reduced it for additional 0.2%, which is great.

    These are the ones I bought as I was not 100% sure what I was going to do for either caps or upgraded wheels. For now, I think they look pretty good and do the job. I also bought these prior to the new official tesla cap being sold. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W7CWMZX/

    Nice car!

    With all these cars getting their aero hubcaps removed, I'm starting to think Tesla would've done good to make the hubcaps optional for LR cars and standard equipment for SR's. With the increased range of the car, many here wouldn't be too bothered by a 5% range reduction.

    I'm looking at my corner of treasures here occupying my living room, opening the next wave of boxes. I have 8 mud flaps for a car I don't own yet that only has 4 tires. I'm doing great.

    Late reply, yes everything as expected with the bonus being the heated steering wheel that seemed up in the air until the last month or so. :)

    Thank you. I like the look of these more than the new Tesla caps.

    I feel like I'm in the minority but I really like the aero caps. Once the oem tires need replaced I'll keep them for my winter set and get some nice aftermarket ones but they don't bother me.

    What mud flaps did you purchase? Looking for some that are effective but don't stick out or look terrible against white car. Thanks!

    Sounds like you need to drill an extra hole to attach these..

    Based off the tracking spreadsheet, I was expecting to hear a lot more people getting VINs this week. Maybe just less buzz since this isn't year end.

    I bet we’re close. My SA told me “any day now” for a VIN for my late February order.
