Smart move to install the mud flaps right away. I used my car for 3 weeks without them installed and it made quite a mess. Installed them and saw a big improvement. Not installed the PPF yet. Will do that soon.I’ve been in the Y all day. Since 10am. I’ve installed almost everything. All mats Rear PPF all mud flaps. I was going to wait. But I have so much time this weekend. So I decided to knock it out. Tonight I will play with the UI more. I’m still a little confused about some things. I still have my Rear storage or cargo cover to install and my Abstract Ocean S3XY Buttons to install. Probably do that at work. Lol
I might spend the Night in Here!!!

Mine look the same. Not good to see that to be honest. I do not want to see uncovered metal screws in the wheel arch. Guess it is what it is.

Can you test out the sound system with this cover open and closed and let me know how it goes? I assume it covers those two rear speakers when you use it.I just installed the parcel cover. I’m going to take it for a spin to see if it sounds different in the rear of the Y. I noticed the echo’s coming from the hatch. My Wife’s Toyota sounds the same when her cargo parcel cover retracted vs it being pulled all the way out.

The acoustics sound better with the cover pulled out vs having it retracted in. The echo of the hatch has decreased by about 25%. Not as much as I thought. I never or didn’t think about the cover helping the acoustics of the Sound system. Until I drove it around after I installed it. I played some Tupac , Erykah Badu , Anita Baker and some heavier sounding base rap. I have not played any Rock. I will be playing Red Hot Chili Peppers in the morning. I will report back.

I am a newbie in the US, been here only for 7 years and I have never sold a car privately. Now that I have a VIN I may ask Tesla to re-appraise my ride, but they were REALLY low with their evaluation last time, I have no reason to believe they would go up.
I have actually found a buyer, a guy who has done this job for Texas Direct Auto for 20+ years, I somehow have to trust that, but can anybody share some best practices for not being scammed and properly transfer a title (my car is paid in full).

Ive never sold a car privately. I was going to go to carmax this time to sell it. My first piece of advice is to demand a money order or wire transfer and don’t take a personal check.
If you are selling the vehicle private. To a person. Have them go to the register office with you to sign over the title to them. That is what I’ve done before. When I didn’t know the person. This was over 15 years ago. If I know them. I sign the title. Give them a signed receipt copy. Best practices is to go the the Register office.
Also remember. I believe in Texas if you trade in your vehicle. The value is subtracted from your new car price. Then you pay taxes on the balance 6.25%. May not be worth it. If Tesla is low balling you. I didn’t want the stress. So I took Tesla’s offer.
Tesla just text me inquiring about whether I'm trading in a vehicle or not. Figures crossed this means my vin is imminent!

So I just applied for DCU to lock in a rate and was approved for 65 months at 3.24%. I'm assuming with a 0.25 EV discount this will be 65 months at 2.99%. They are asking for the "purchase and sales agreement". I wanted to lock in a rate prior to me getting a VIN (hopefully in the next few weeks). I know the rate is good for 45 days, but is there anything from Tesla I can provide them now?
Can I provide them the Motor vehicle order agreement that is in our Tesla account?

Any of you have Tesla Solar? Just asking
I just signed up. If you do. How do you like it?

There’s a couple of guy’s on this thread that have used DCU. They will probably see your post in a day or two.
I decided to check on what Tesla’s estimate is. Might as well lock in a loan rate before they go up again
