    HA! FSD? That will go down as the most under delivered product in the history of consumerism. If you plan to keep your car for 10+ years, I can see why you'd buy FSD. But it really depends on what you think FSD is, because it aint Level 5 and it aint happening as a software update on any car on the road today. Take the 10K, invest it in a modest ETF, take your 6% return, IF FSD does ever come, use that money to add it, your returns will out pace the rise in price.

    That first part is one of the ancillary manufacturing locations on Kato road, a couple of miles south of the main plant. Fremont is shown after the cut.

    Looks like Tesla removed estimated delivery for new orders on Long Range and Plaid. Plaid+ is still estimated end of 2021.

    In my account page however it still shows "March"

    Interesting??

    It might just be that they have to stick out further because of the wider stance of the new models. Can only guess at this point though.

    It’s possible. I’d be happy if they just fixed the condensation problem that regularly blinds the pillar cameras in my 3 (especially in certain seasons).

    I’ve been on the fence between an S and a Y, but pulled the trigger last night and submitted an order for the S. LR, Blue, black interior, tempest wheels. Mainly I wanted to get in line, but may still reconsider some options. I would really like to drive one (and know more detailed specs - a little nervous about it being too wide for our narrow driveway with curbs and concrete walls on the sides). But since it seems like deliveries are still a couple months out, I probably have time to change my mind I guess.

    My office computer shows dates for LR and Plaid. My home does not show dates. So they are still there but not.

    I've come to my senses and decided I'd like to remove FSD from my build, which I assume wouldn't be a difficult thing as it's just software. I tried doing that, and found two things curious:

    Note "FSD computer". Does this mean it actually gets different hardware?


    It also showed me this (below) when I clicked that box, which has me a bit concerned that I'll be locking in the entire build. Anyone have experience with this? Is this just a "you can't make any more changes to FSD", or does it lock everything (color options, wheels, etc)?

    Aside: watching the activity in this thread, it's extremely comforting to know there are other people out there like me - hyperscrutinizing everything remotely related to the Model S refresh. :D

    All cars, I believe, are shipped with FSD hardware. It's how they can leverage the fleet to continuously improve Autopilot!

    I called Tesla Burbank a few minutes ago. The SA told me Model S deliveries were now being delayed until May or June. I then called my SA in Century Ciity who told me I am still in the first wave of deliver sometime towards the end of March.

    I ordered the S LR December 15th and modified for refresh as soon as announced. This is my first Tesla and I have already had the wall charger installed. If I hadn’t had an electrician install it, I am pretty sure I would be on my was back to my MB dealer.

    This is no way to run a company that sells to consumers. Totally disgusted with the lack of info.

    Come now - Elon has assured all of us that our cars are rapidly increasing in value.

    Maybe he'll toss in a (figurative) bitcoin with every purchase.

    On a slightly more serious note - the expected delivery for my M3 last Fall went from 4 weeks to 8 weeks to 12 weeks to I cancelled my order. So I wouldn't make any firm automotive plans or commitments based on posted delivery dates.

    Considering there aren't that many models in the Tesla portfolio, I really don't understand how they are not better able to manage these timelines and customer expectations.

    Tesla doesn't have any problems selling every car that comes off the line, so there's not a lot of incentive to change. My suggestion: lower your expectations for your interactions with Tesla the company and look forward to your Tesla vehicle, because it's the reason any of us are still around here.

    Wait till you take delivery of the car.

    You have my empathy.

    This is why I continue to eagerly await the new EV's coming down the pike.
