Do you do anything special to keep it looking brand new? I'm coming from a Hyundai and Mazda...I didn't really think too much about their care...I mean I wasn't careless I kept them clean and maintained but I'm not overly babying either. This Tesla is my first high cost vehicle purchase and I just want to take care of it right.
I’ve thought the same thing. But most of my buys have been pretty basic. Mud flaps, screen protection, NEMA 14/50 adapter, lift pucks etc… Still researching floor mats. I’ve seen people buy floor mats for their 2021 MY that were probably designed for the 2020 model and they were too short and left about an inch gap between the bottom of the seat mounts and their new mats. Not a big deal, but just not as clean looking. But, you’re right, we’re getting close to the 2022 models and Tesla can change things up overnight it seems.
I find TMC to be much friendlier place than Facebook groups. This thread in particular is filled with interesting and supportive people. The support group/group therapy vibe here is real!If you hang around here long enough, you really will feel like you’ve made friends. I enjoy the knowledge and wit on this board. Only downside, is all friends inevitably “graduate” when they get their cars and we don’t see them much on here after
My husband does Facebook and is in a lot of the Tesla groups. He jokes me that he’s probably friends on there with my TMC friends
I got text this morning, nothing on my account. EDD was 9/4 to 9/10 and dates I had to pick from were 9/8 - 9/10. Just checked and it show in my profile now.
For those not from California, EDD is Employment Development Department. That is California's Unemployment Insurance Agency.
Yes, you are correct. Model Y SR was available for order for about three weeks around March - April. A lot of people ordered, it was inexpensive ($40k) and many people took delivery. After Tesla closed the ordering page they continued production for some time to fill outstanding orders. However those who delayed or dilly-dallied on completing their profile were told they no longer produce them, and you either need to change or cancel.
Btw hi everybody, could I join this emotional support group? Sacramento here
Welcome
Thanks! I'll check Griot's Garage out. I started a Pinterest board to keep track of all the cleaning products I've seen during my research.
Right! I’m out about 9 weeks from my order date, and it seems like a long wait, but then I see where there’s others that ordered their MY clear back in April or May and are still waiting and I feel bad for them. But I’m thrilled for those that finally get their VIN and eventual delivery, especially the long timers.
Yeah, initially my wife was like “ That’s too much money for a car! “, and then there was that moment during the test drive that we’ve all experienced that changed her thinking. And that was just the LR, not the performance model. We’ve always had somewhat sporty cars ( Infiniti G35 coupe and such ) over the years, but Tesla’s are a different animal. It’s not just the performance, but the tech that really impresses me the most. We’re both looking forward to planning out some future road trips.
