Until we start getting vins those dates don't mean anything.

Do not rain on my tiny socially distant parade

We should all post pictures here after delivery.

I don't think there's anything that could stop us.

Is this too soon after delivery?

We remain in pre-delivery mode. But don’t we love the anticipation.

What a beautiful sight! That red Model S with arachnids might be mine They must be for delivery right? I don’t think test mules are fitted with arachnids.

It's hard to tell. You would think the delivery vehicles would have some sort of protective covering on them and none of these do so I'm still skeptical but I hope I'm wrong. Let's go!!!!!

Blue one is mine!

Question... have we seen a Plaid out in the wild yet? I don’t remember seeing any red calipers, I think I’ve seen the spoiler...

For all we know, those cars have stalks and the same old interior and the outside is just chrome delete like the 3 and Y. We must continue our wait.

Tesla stopped producing the Model S in December. Every Model S produced since the line opened up again has had the refreshed interior with the horizontal center screen. Plenty of photos of the new interior in the wild.

No MINE!

These are another round of test cars. They are not going to ship customers a car without the yoke unless they change something online or in an official communication. My guess is they are using the full wheels to train the system for the yoke, for calibration purposes.

I don’t disagree with your guess, but why produce test cars in different colors? And if you are testing the wheels to calibrate the system for the yoke, why not have yokes in the cars?

I'd argue the colors are one of the ways we can assume these are test vehicles because there's like two of each. I think they are using the steering wheel to help calibrate whatever system for the yoke, since we can probably assume the motion for turning for the yoke is going to be so different.

What I mean by this is... They hook them up to a computer turn the wheel to a certain spot and program what the equivalent should be for the yoke at that particular rotation.

Why other colors? Maybe to test the paint. Why the other Wheels? To test the wheels (I believe they are newly modified) and I'm sure it creates nuance in the steering.

Yesterday a different truck was carrying 2 blues, 2 grays and 1 blue.

FWIW - I am refreshing this thread at the same frequency as the rest of you, but I am in Sweden so my MS is scheduled for November. Hope that makes someone feel a bit better.

You might feel better knowing that many of us have to wait until mid 2022.

These cars are trash. No yokes.

ughh you’re right... good eye

Really? Interesting analysis.

This is all a stunt to make investors feel they are delivering in Q1.
