Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[Sbaimo]

I had delivery set up this week LR blue/cream. I DID get the $2000 discount. They Put off my delivery to change wheels to the new wheels.

Happy for you. Enjoy it all. I think the darker wheels look much better

I like jokes, but some pretty bad news recently about cyclists getting run over. Too close to home for me to laugh.
M.

Sad to hear...we joke about death daily though. Forestry work...most dangerous job in the USA and until we took over harvesting that really didn't sink in because the consulting is cushy by comparison. Now I've had sub contractors that have worked on our sites killed (not on our property but we knew them, invited to kids wedding and such; I have friends that have lost father/son team they worked with, another colleague in a different state had logger whose family just pulled plug after accident. We deal with it by joking a bit. We rarely go a month without hearing of an accident somewhere.

Frankly I can't believe more cyclists aren't hit. Need more dedicated bike lanes. Also they need to stay off our farm roads here where they group up like salmon when they climb hills at 5mph...not making friends

you should be able to just provide them with a VIN. I did that with my USAA.

I did. Their system doesn't have it set up yet. I'm in Texas. Anyone in Texas have an insurer? Thanks you.

I agree, but I didn't get a choice lol

I do not miss the weather in the northeast. Moved here from NJ 2 Years ago.

It seems that the northeast has become a winner in the global warming lottery, with milder winters, more gorgeous days throughout the year than we used to have, and not really any hotter in the summers than it used to be. And we still don't get hurricanes (much) or tornados (much)...

Yes. That the Florida DMV hasn’t “released” them yet.

I was at the DMV today and explained this to them and they said it makes no sense because Tesla is in their system and they don’t even use model numbers on Tesla’s.

@Pathos what spec/model did you order?

Plaid, black on black, black wood, 21" wheels.

Just received a VIN for a Model S LR. Anyone else seeing the same?

We have to read 2000 pages and you roll in with this Q??? FOH

Some of you have just had crappy dealer experience. Mine have been great. Some dealers have brought the car and paperwork to my office to sign. I am selective on who I deal with and build a relationship. Anyway sorry that your past is like that - but Tesla has been the worst for me so far. The SA has been great for what he can do but the overall experience has not been good.

Same, brother. Been buying luxury autos for 30 years. The Tesla “sugar” is ummm … unique

LOL, I just called the Santa Monica location and told them I don't need 19's, I'll take 21's if it moves things quicker. He said it wouldn't but notated my account anyway.

 

[Desert Dave]

maybe we need to add 19" tire shortages to the list of parts shortages. Or EOQ $$$ hungry manufacturer

 

[lolachampcar]

Moving my 20" wheels from my current P90DL. I guess its time for a visit to the SC to let them know I do not need no stink'n wheels (right now). Just give me the car

It’s all fun and games until the Cascadia subduction zone opens up.

agreed. however, when they come out with the 200 MPH package, is it going to be the 21" wheels anyway? or a different set of wheels and other items?

 

[rhuber]

I wonder what they pay these people. They work from home as I’ve spoken to a few on

TBD, but I'm going ask Tesla if I can opt-in to having my name put on a list of people who are never allowed to buy whatever allows me to go 200 MPH, because I know myself.
