Up on blocks. Shouldn't have parked it in such a bad neighborhood.

Nice car bro, looks just like mine.

It's a Blue M3 in disguise, according to my 'Manage" page.

 

[TheWalkingDad]

Same for me. I wouldn't mind this color black but with no wheels, hope i get a discount!

The only way I can explain what owning your first Model S is like is to compare it to the birth of your first child. Lots of inconvenience and pain for nine months and then smiles on your face from the day of delivery on...

“Smiles From day of delivery on”?.......your kids must still be extremely young.

Hey guys, cut Tesla some slack. Web pages are hard.

They didn't have web pages in WW II either..

They‘re loading “Welcome To Your New MS” video's.
I’m sticking with that thought.

Maybe Tesla was inspired by Ford last night. Any color you want...

I love that it’s pre-refresh.

 

[omarsultan]

I'll miss y'all once the deliveries actually happen and only us lonely Plaid+ folks are left floating around like tumbleweeds

Nah, we'll all re-unite on the Refresh S Issues thread

Must be on the 28.8 modem....

Assumption is that it uses the upcoming 4680 battery cells, which gives it 500+ miles of range while also having the performance of the Plaid.

The plus should be 300-500lbs lighter as well..

I didn't pass out, but had to pee between every contraction to the point where a nurse asked if I had my prostate checked. The delivery process was rougher for me than the Mrs.

Hate to say (kinda) but I don’t even know what that means.
I take it something outdated?

 

[Drew-MS]

This is definitely the longest the sites been wacked out in recent memory. Hopefully something is actually going on for us all!!!

It’s probably from all of us checking our accounts 3-5 times per day hoping to see a VIN number

It's a last century thing...for comparison purposes, think MCU1 browser.

I’ll go with “you’ve got mail”......am I close?

Were you born in the 90’s? If so, consider yourself lucky that you never needed to endure the agony of dial-up modems to access the internet.

He is referring to dial-up modem speeds before WiFi and broadband connections existed.
This used a standard phone line and modem and the connection speeds were severely limited.

In the early 90’s we used 9,600 bits/s connections that were then upgraded to 14.4 k/bits and then 28.8 and 56 k/bit. 56 k/bit was the fastest dialup before we moved to 128k ISDN lines and then T1 lines which were 1.5 megabit. Thankfully, our modern broadband is now measured in double digit megabit or gigabit connections.

Yes...And the "The Proposal"

Don't forget the blazing innovation that was the 33.6 modem.

My Internet days go back to dialing in to Prodigy in 1988 with my 2400 baud modem. Apparently I’m the early adopter type that doesn’t mind putting up with lousy customer service by my Internet provider and automobile company.
