Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[aerodyne]

I'm wondering how people feel about having the adjustable screen. Does it really make that much of a difference? I can't help but feel like my OCD might not like it angled...

I'm confused

If you plan on doing home charging other than using 110v, you need to get a NEMA adapter. It is no longer included. You may not even get a charging kit either.

All cars ordered before 4-22 get a basic MC and two adapters.

You can buy other adapters at the Tesla store.

Edit...MC is mobile connector.

Ok just took delivery and so far I am super happy! I am not seeing anything that needs attention to it. Plus I did get the tilt screen!

WOW, very beautiful! See you on the roads... I drive I-45 and Beltway 8 west side all the time in early mornings and about 3-5pm in evenings.

I got my VIN last night and the EDD tightened!!! The text they sent to my phone saying I got my VIN assigned looked automated, but I replied back asking what was the build date. To my surprise, I received a response of May 10th... So, three days before it was assigned to me. I hope that is a good sign that it isn't a reject or repair.

Will take it directly to get Xpel Stealth, Ceramic 2yr coat, and brake calipers painted Rose Gold which looked like copper in the pictures I saw. Now the big debate is if I should keep the wheel covers on or go naked!

I was used to driving a Toyota Prius from 2005 to 2015, then a RAM 1500 truck til my 2021 Model Y LR. Now I'm about to get a Model S Plaid!!! Not a bad mid-life crisis purchase in my opinion!!!

Got a VIN assigned a couple days ago, #478471, for my 2022 MS LR with expected delivery Mt. Kisco N.Y . May 26-30. Ordered vehicle April 2021. Price is about $10,000. less than same car ordered today. Let's hope they stick with it!

No, they get nothing unless they add it to their order and pay more.

I made an error. Orders placed BEFORE a certain day in April (17th? 22nd) will get a basic MC with a 5-15 adapter, possibly a j1772 as well.

Tesla Model S LR

My first EV and super excited. Since I didn’t expect to be taking delivery so quick I don’t have a wall charger yet and just got a quote for 4k since I have to trench the whole front yard. Even that didn’t take away my excitement!

Bruh WTF. I need to see the algorithm Elon is using to determine who gets cars.

You may not want to know. Could be early orders are first to get the late order rejects. They tried that on me once.

IMO, Best to just be patient and know no matter how long it takes, you are sheltered from future price increases.

Paying 20k below current and getting everything but that damned tilt screen was pretty good I’d say.

I'd say it paid for your wrap and wheels and even FSD.

Tilt screen is worth $25k. Easy.

There’s an algorithm?

There are those that speak of this "algorithm". Some say it is rooted in mystical numerology from Persia, others a grand Lottery controlled by the deep state.

But let's face it, Elon would not have such a simple method. The truth is much more interesting....

Little Elon was brought up in South Africa (I know, later Canada) in a town where a people called "The Happy Folk" lived

Some may see where I'm going with this.

You see little Elons village very existence a mystery to the rest of the world
Obscured as it was by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
That was growing in the world below
To live in harmony with
The spirit of the mountain called Monkey was enough
Then one day Strangefolk arrived in the town
They came in camouflaged
Hidden behind dark glasses and no one noticed them
They only saw shadows
You see without the truth of the eyes
The Happyfolk were blind
in time Strangefolk found their way
Into the higher reaches of the mountain
And it was there that they found the caves
Of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
By chance they stumbled upon
The place where all good souls come to rest
The Strangefolk they coveted
The jewels in these caves above all things
And soon they began to mine the mountain
It's rich seam fueling the chaos of their own world
Meanwhile down in the town
The Happyfolk slept restlessly their dreams Invaded by shadowy figures
Digging away at their souls
Every day people would wake and stare at the mountain
Why was it bringing darkness into their lives?
And as the Strangefolk mined deeper and deeper into the mountain
Holes began to appear
Bringing with them a cold and bitter wind
That chilled the very soul of the Monkey
For the first time the Happyfolk felt fearful for
They knew that soon the Monkey would stir from it's deep sleep
Then there came a sound
Distant first it grew into castrophany
So immense that it could be heard far away in space
There were no screams there was no time
The mountain called Monkey had spoken
There was only fire
And then nothing.

This is the truth if it. A powerful deity (Monkey) controls the fate of all. Elon has followed the way of "Monkey" to lead him on his quest to find those of us worthy of EV glory.
Choose well and Monkey will reward you with great things. Dig too deep letting impatience fuel your emotions and a terrible fate will befall your dreams and hopes. Monkey will incrementally move your EDD for the rest of eternity.

Or it's driven by Batch process manufacturing where similar cars are made at the same time and shipped to those that placed orders first.

Or an actually monkey throwing poop at a wall with numbers assigned to individual reservation holders.

Pretty sure it's the Spirit of the Mountain though.
