Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[rhuber]

@rhuber You disagree because this is incorrect?

No, sorry i meant that it is a bummer and one of the things I dislike considering the lack of good manual release in the back.

I usually mark posts like that as informative or helpful, because I don’t disagree, I just don’t like it

Yeah, I fixed it. I’m bad at foruming.

Was hoping for a father's day vin. So much disappointment. Pre-delivery Tesla never misses a chance to cut me to the core. (Post delivery Tesla is the best)

*Sigh*

I don’t think that’s how the dislike button works lol

OK, cool. Did not want to be spreading bad info. Yeah, hard to figure out how to react to that. . I found this article: https://www.cars.com/articles/tough...could-make-it-hard-to-escape-your-car-405870/

I, for one, eagerly await the first time I'm kicked off of a drag strip for having too fast a car.

This!!!

No official word yet but I was told my car is only as far as Arizona, so it doesn't look like I am getting it on Tuesday. Will hopefully find out more tomorrow. Hopefully still this week!
Delivery Fort Myers

Thx.

That was the last thing on my to-do for today. Now off to figure out how to make the car make horse hoof clip-clop sounds at low speeds via boombox (this has been a long held dream).

Does that sound play inside or out? I would like to do the one that makes different engine sounds outside

 

[TorqueMonster]

This!!!

We need Elon to build some Tesla approved drag strips at the supercharger locations. And make sure they have VHT available!

It said just June consistently, didn’t go blank and then just appeared a little while ago and got an email.

Congrats again! My estimated date has been "June" for a long while now, so I hope my VIN is coming soon, as well. Also in the Southern California area.

Awesome to hear! Can't wait to see your spec!

Are you sure? Because the sound is sort of "faint" it isnt that electric whine like in reverse, it sounds more like a fan or something. I also didnt notice it until someone said something and then I paid attention and could hear this, IDK, exhaust fan sound or I guess a plane flying overhead lol

Watch around 1 minute and 30 seconds in.

Definitely not doing that in drive. That sounds like a GE turbine spooling.
