Ah... you just answered the lingering question for me of why didn't they put the horn in the middle like most cars! Have you tried that @omarsultan?

I find it interesting that someone would be first in line to buy a Plaid and immediately turn around and file a NHTSA complaint about the yoke. He says that people will die from the yoke. I seem to remember someone posting a similar comment on this thread a few months ago.
This seems like a setup to me. Some hedge fund investing in a short position, possibly like the recent fire incident (which has not repeated even though 3x miles have now been driven since the incident). Probability would dictate that we should have two more fires by now.

I was on vacation for a couple of weeks. The struggle is real with respect to keeping up here! I am not jumping ship @Tigers and appreciate the call out! Getting my Y as a “bridge” car distracted me for a bit, but I want my S and my X.
Glad to see the crew still frothy as ever and the the thread still right on topic - as always!
This was the same guy that probably filed a complaint that his iPhone was dangerous and caused "brain cancer," his fuel injected car was unsafe because he couldn't adjust it like a carburetor and his GPS was a hazard to society because it told him to make a left turn and he was on an overpass!! Some people desire their "claim to fame" and have no desire to accept technological advances.I find it interesting that someone would be first in line to buy a Plaid and immediately turn around and file a NHTSA complaint about the yoke.

Estimated Delivery September. Still. Just trying to do my part to stay on topic.
As an aside, if you read that guy’s complaint, it sounds like a “don’t buy it if you don’t like it” response would be appropriate. It’s not like the yoke was a surprise…

Look everyone! We found a way to get a delivery date!! /sI ended up placing an order with exact config as mine but with 21" wheels. EDD: July

When I called my "Tesla Sales Office" today (AND they DID NOT answer) and got a hold of a Tesla Call Center Rep, I mentioned that and he said, in no uncertain terms, that ANY changes at this point would assuredly result in a delay in getting my car. Soooo, yeah.....I dunno what "the truth" is nowadays.
Mmm this wasn't an order change. We placed entirely new orders today just to see what would happen (with one thing changed).
Nice. Good luck. I have resigned my life to ceaselessly checking my order status page and living vicariously through those that have their car
After seeing the new arachnids with my arachnids side by side today I can 100% tell you that I'd pick the new ones if given a choice. They look fantastic in person and have much more depth to them than photos let on.

At this point no hedge fund or shorting idiot has to do extra work to affect the stock. Even if Tesla comes up with FSD wide release the stock will still be *sugar*. It has been taking a *sugar* for the last 6 months now lolI find it interesting that someone would be first in line to buy a Plaid and immediately turn around and file a NHTSA complaint about the yoke.

Also anyone shorting this stock long term is a moron. Tesla is the leader in EVs and there is no question about it. The stock, however, has been frustratingly dead for the last 6 months so nobody has to do anything extra to further kill the stock. It's doing bad all by itself and needs no help

Sorry, I was referring to your comment about using the yoke to palm steer. I assume you're saying that the yoke could be used by placing your hand on the center and steered like that. Not sure that sounds like a comfortable way to drive, but keeping this as an option would require not having the horn activate while your hand is on the center.

Seems like VINs and dates are only slowly trickling out; maybe a handful a day in this thread.
I spoke to my only reliable Tesla contact, Mr. Imagin Ation, and was told that I will have a VIN tomorrow. He doesn’t know what time, so refreshing will continue throughout the day. I was also told 19”, white seats, and CF configs will begin production this month.

Im not one to feed the short seller conspiracy theory, but why order or accept a car with a flaw so serious you complain up and down about it? What is the person trying to prove, since they already had clearly formed their opinion before hand? This is a $130k vehicle, a pure luxury, and while the cost is inconsequential to most here I can find far better uses of that money than buying something I consider a death trap.

Palming is usually referring to putting your hand flat at the edge of the wheel, pushing down, and using the friction and sliding against your palm to turn it. Using the center would be very hard even in a modern electric power steering vehicle and would like kinda dumb, plus not afford you more than 45 degrees or so of turning.
I palm low speed maneuvers like parking all the time. With an electric steering rack the effort is near zero, as are chances of slipping as there is nearly no resistance. Losing electric steering could happen, but (at least in a M3) is doubly redundant power pathed. It’s much more likely to lose just power steering in an older hydraulic steering setup from a serpentine belt breaking. Plus, at 5mph parking maneuvers, my risk is denting my car or a parked car.
