Day of judgement is coming and I'm disappointed in the 3SR owners.

[Leafdriver333]

You're correct. However, I think it's normal that $35K car buyers feel most entitled.
I knows I felt lot more entitled in 2003, when I bought my first BMW (entry level, zero options! $35K), then nowadays.

I feel this is part of natural progression of achieving some success in career, but not having yet enough self-confidence, maturity, means and life experience to look at things objectively, rather than through the 'me-me-me' prism.

In 2003, I though I was a hotshot, even-though I was just a selfish and myopic ass... at the start of first real successes in my career. You should've seen hell I've given dealer for telling me car was basic, and then it turned out it had upgraded wheels... And I felt very righteous. So silly. Same thing with todays claims of 'Tesla told me...' or 'Munroe sticker ...'.
Not that I was right then, or SR owners are right now, but it's kinda understandable based on the human psychology.

I am not so sure people change.

Well, no, not everyone will change. Change takes time and work. So young ones would not have seen it, and/or ones that didn't work enough on themselves. But, I would propose that there is decent correlation between career/life success and the change. I'm not suggesting causation either way, I feel it's intertwined.

I sent an email a couple of weeks ago to know the process on downgrading my SR+ to SR and finally I get the call, I was so excited just to get a call from them. They told me I can downgrade for a refund of $1,500 but I'll be losing the following fog lights, immersed sound, 20 miles of range and top speed. I decided not to downgrade I love the sound system and my fog lights.

I picked up my Model 3 in Portland last September and was handed the sticker. It seems to be site specific.

Looks like Tesla was not quite ready to release the 3SR. Sad they could not have waiting another 2 weeks or to get the Monroney correct. Might have avoided a lot of issues.

 

[Leafdriver333]

I could not care less about the foglights and immersive audio.
I would not miss 20 miles because I would charge to 90% for trips anyway.
But I would miss the 5.3 sec acceleration.
I would pay $1500 more to make it 5.0 sec car.

Gosh what a bunch of whining a holes with entitlement. I’ll say it again. One of the worst things about Tesla is some of the jerks that have them. It’s an awesome car and these people just ruin it.

In my opinion, those one who's paid for M3 SR that's got SR+ initially and with SR+ Monroney, and now complained their car will not be equipped as the SR+ Monroney is the new low. There is lots of things we can whine about but this is just getting ridiculous.

Did the day of judgment arrive for anyone? Still an SR Plus here.

How long since email?

15 now.

It should be irreversible, otherwise you'd just buy the upgrade during winter months and wanted seat warmers, and then downgrade it in the summer.

That sounds like a ridiculous yearly waste of money

 

[Kilotango74]

Those people should burn hell if there's one.

Kinda harsh, but think it’s funny that someone labeled this as “helpful”. Lol

 

[Kilotango74]

You think this is bad - wait until the people getting free roadsters start complaining about the paint.

Oh they are not free, they spent hours “influencing” on YouTube. Lol. But if anyone is going to bitch and moan it will be those people. Talk about entitled.

 

[Kilotango74]

Obliviously people change, otherwise we would still be children crying and moaning when we don’t get out way.....oh wait, ok some people don’t change.

 

[duanra]

The problem I would have if I had won the roadster is I wouldn't able to afford the taxes ! About 15% !
I would be complaining about that !

 

[Leafdriver333]

15 now.

So even that 10 days was on Elon time.

 

[MXWing]

At least Tesla is consistent.

Imagine if they were clutch at delivering the downgrade on the dot but didn’t get anything else done!

Maximize Q2 deliveries > Slapping down SR+ free loaders.

I'm always amused by people that want something for nothing, like some of the youth today believing in entitlements (owed to them, just because) or how about alleged descendants of early 1800 slaves expecting financial reparations 150 years later and worse, the US Government considering giving it to them. It's like people walk into a store and there's a "free, take one" sign. People take one, they don't need it, but take one anyway, why, because the sign says "free, take one". Maybe I come from a vastly different time, a different ethic, where you work hard for what you earn so you can buy what you need, so I never take one, free or otherwise, if it's not something that I like and may never purchase without it being free.There's a commercial on the tube that just gags me every time it comes on... and yet it is so typical of the lack of ethics in the world today. You didn't pay for the SR+ features, then don't b!tch when they are taken away.

Being entitled is not a good thing.

Nor is being judgmental of others.
