On an unrelated note to take your mind off the anxiety multiplying situation, Planning to get a brushless 1/2" impact wrench skin(ozito) and also a used 18" space saver. Already have puncture repair kit and has experience in changing tyre as well as repairing puncture and filling air with my Xiaomi rechargeable air compressor.
Any advice or comments??

Interesting to see that cars with 'Photon' wheels travel without aero covers in place. Note to self: look under the covers before accepting delivery!
Can’t beat a good old spare. But if you’re comfortable doing a road plug, carry that with you. The one time I had a puncture, it was on the left front and I found it easier to plug it and pump it.
Right now when I drive up to QLD(I’m from Melbourne) I take a full size spare in addition to my space saver on my Mazda. I also take a trolley jack from work and my Milwaukee half inch (I’m a mechanic by trade and yes I bought a Tesla. do laugh
)

Still looking at jacks, mostly those electric ones with a vertical piston (haven't read reviews/videos yet though).
I'm waiting to find out the clearance under the car with consideration of the jack pads. Then I will shop around.
I have a rechargeable compressor and ill grab a new plug kit. If its something i cant fix with that ill be calling roadside service. Actually, being a lease ill prefer roadside service.
I dont fancy carrying around any extra weight if i can help it, gives me more battery for skidz.
One word; don’t. Get a good old bottle jack, it’s cheaper, more reliable than one of those things, and the small workout is well worth it.
That makes sense. A used full size wheel is much better than a space saver. And you don't have to take it with you all the time.Can’t beat a good old spare. But if you’re comfortable doing a road plug, carry that with you. The one time I had a puncture, it was on the left front and I found it easier to plug it and pump it.

I was thinking about a compact trolley jack when some thing special comes on repco or supercheap. Is it hard to maintain a trolley jack compared to normal scissor cut jack as it will be sitting idle most of the time?
Was also thinking about a simple jack somehow hook it with the impact driver for a stress free operation.
No HW3.5 which technically doesn't exist is the model Y in the US with HW3 computer and HW4 cameras.So HW3.5 is HW4 computer minus front bumper camera and radar or is it HW3 Computer plus better cameras?
Even though HW4 computer won't feel better now or even worse compared to HW3 now it has potential to be a lot better in a couple of months/years.
20 core cpu vs 12 core cpu
3 NN cores vs 2NN cores
14nm vs TSMC 7nm(much lower power)
Not that It makes a lot of difference for people like me who don't have any plan to subscribe to FSD. But still feels good to know the full technical specs for inner techie..
New M3 is pure HW4
