Has to be a bottle of Telslaquila to make it worthwhile, and appropriate...
Ok - ok, here's the deal though: see, I know Im right, but as some of you may know...im buying my model s with the credit card, so even though i know im right...i cant take the $100 bet because, quite frankly, im not going to have $100 next year if im wrong.

So, about payment..much discussion about the Plaid prepay and such.
My friend who had the bad experience with the Model Y today, insisted on paying cashier's check on delivery.
He did threaten to call the bank and stop the check.
That may have been a factor in the Store deciding to take the car back.
I'm sure 99% of you all will have only minor problems, but it does not hurt to keep final cash payment in your back pocket, so to speak.
I cannot - I live in a non-direct sales state and they told me straight up they won't ship the damn thing to me until I pay. I can refuse delivery and get my money back, however. Which Im probs not gonna do.

Oh please, we can’t even get aftermarket MS mud flaps that any middle schooler could design.Is there any aftermarket activity on these items? If I was someone like Evannex, I'd be chasing Plaid owners with apparent disposable income

I'll sell ya some damn mud flaps, $10,000, as I have to custom build them with my sweet paws and immaculate teeth.

Cashiers checks aren’t generally reversible except in cases of fraud. This probably wouldn’t have worked, but it’s free to try.

Bet the store did not know that ...
I did that once, then got the boot off the drag strip--will be going back
Trapped at 150 but did manage to hit 156 before lifting off.If you could put a stop payment on a cashier's check, it would literally defeat the purpose of a cashier's check. The check is good as cash and has to be honored by the bank for at least 90 days. Whether they decide to give you your money back is up to the individual bank, who may credit you even if they lose, but i doubt they would unless you had a really strong banking relationship
The whole rocker or just the rocker near the rear wheels? I’m probably in the same boat. Won’t bother with a repaint.
These tires seem so sticky compared to my P100D. The amount of sand and loose dirt I heat flinging in my wheel wells is incredible.
Pretty much the whole rockers but much worse at the rear. I have about 2,500 miles on the car now and it is pretty bad. I would hate to see it at 25,000 miles. My plan is to repaint them and bake the new paint so I can get them back on and add PPF asap. Still considering mud flaps like @webshot and @jebinc did on theirs too.
The tires do seem very sticky I agree that is part of the problem.

Life is good!
I am preapproved for financing already. Financing about $30k and rest is cash. I uploaded insurance and all paper has been complete for months. Tesla says i should get a car soon, but never seems to happen.
I tell people before they test drive my S90 to get ready for a financial loss!While I’ve been waiting for my Tesla, I’ve gotten the car buying itch. I’ve always had this affliction since I was a teen, and I experience a flare up every two years.
I’ve been considering an Audi e-tron GT, an Audi RS6 Avant, a BMW 750, or a Mercedes S560. The Audis, like every other car, are in short supply. Like @Texas Electric stated, watching YouTube videos can be detrimental to the wallet and can cause sudden flare ups of the car buying itch. I’m trying hard not to scratch it before a MY or MS arrives.
