Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[DukeofURL]

No more in production BS like last year.

I hated this last year, but now I kinda miss the excitement last spring. Waiting for something that nobody had even seen yet. Yeah, I have the car in my driveway now and it's amazing and all I hoped and dreamed for (minus ambient lighting, revised head and taillights, etc... ) but I kinda want something more to wait for... maybe that's why I stick around here, to feel that same excitement through others waiting for delivery hahaha.

You can be sure that you do not have choices yet that match the OEM sizes on 21" in all seasons. Pirelli theoretically has a winter set but not showing anywhere and not available. You can go a little outside the OEM sizing and there are A/S options. I went 20" for this reason.

Agreed..I havent done a ton of research but my friend who runs a tire shop was showing my some calculator on line that showed several different tire size options in 21" that resulted in less than 3% change to tire rotating speed or whatever its called. Says going to alternative tire size opens up more possibilities of tire options with zero negative impact/risk

Excitement? Oh you must mean anxiety...

Moved my EDD to March 20 - March 31 like some others here.
Don't care so much for horn, headlights and tail lights as much as just upgrade the damn drive shafts and retrain the person who is assembling the front passenger door so it closes like a six figure car....

This is what I was considering

I’m a RN 1152 and my EDD is still holding at Feb 3-17. I don’t care if it gets delayed because I’d like the new lights, horn, and two wireless gaming controllers.

If I order the set of mud flaps, do you think that I can get them installed upon delivery?

Glen Allen SC still relatively bare. Two S’s and few Y’s and 3’s. All on the main lot and the satellite lot at the gas station remains empty.

That would be a great choice. However, the rear is over 1" larger in diameter and almost 4% larger in circumference. At 70mph, the speed will be off almost 3mph.

On the OEM sizes, the front is larger than the rear. How does this effect the speedo and odometer? Where does the S get it's data from on the speedo?

This all may not mean much depending on where the data comes from and does the car compensate computerically (@Tigers )?

I wonder if the black S is the same one that was there after Christmas.

Not sure but good chance it is. Black/White with the Walnut interior. Same as the one in December. Its also showing under the inventory category on the website.

That good to hear. I have 21“ wheels so I am not sure ifI have much choice when it comes to tires.

i think 0 choice. the 19's can be summer or all season, the 21s are performance. at least per the manual.

Love the 19”s with quiet all season Contis. Looking forward to the new Michelin Pilot Sport “EV” all season release this coming spring.

Well, it’s almost time for new Tesla news!

So far, not much on CT.

Other than another delay blamed on Covid, that is!
