My dog runs in his sleep. Maybe your Tesla is having a bad dream.
We’re agreeing actually.
I'm wondering what they'd have to do - I know they chill the motors already - could a software update release more juice, or actually make the motors colder, or some combination? Maybe it would require more time between launches to further cool, etc. - or, maybe we're just speculating and maybe the harnesses, etc. are maxed out with the amperage they can handle.
Yes, but someone had stated if you don't want your car anymore, there is no reason to cancel your reservation. My point is that a cancellation gets noticed, and enough of them would cause a course correction.
Lets not forget that reliability and longevity of the product comes into play for design and engineering. The Plaid is probably as fast as it can be without sacrificing durability and degradation.
That is correct; however, it requires a large group to do it and even though it’s the best for the *group* it is better for the individual if everyone *else* does it.
You sound like you are talking from a book on philosophy. Individual actions should not be based on what the group does, unless the outcome is already known. I don't have to know how many people are upset with Tesla if I cancel my order. I simply cancel it, knowing that sends a message. If enough people do the same, something changes. If not, so be it.
It's new variation on water torture. It emotionally forces you to come back every day to check your order page.
I had that once when I first received a date range about a week ago. But, I don't have a VIN, so I can't speak to whether it means anything in your situation.
Why do they have different date range spreads? I have a 2 week spread.. Others have shorter. I've decided that this is evidence that we are part of a psychological experiment. Either that or this is proof that we all are part of a computer program and there was been a software glitch.
This is a really good point--even if they can bring the technology to bear, to do it within their current pricing structure pushes the price to some multiple of the Plaid. And getting walked by an upstart Tesla is gonna make those plush Porsche seat feel a little less comfy.
I think they are totally sandbagging on the Plaid and probably on the LR too. I think they want to to see what Lucid can manage before we see any upgrades. I think they would also love to beat the Taycan Turbo S at the 'Ring.
More like from game theory. I’m mostly noticing how much this sounds like a prisoner’s dilemma. Here:
Let me phrase it this way: Tesla has never shipped a car, especially their performance flagship, without performance in reserve. This guarantees that they will be able to stay on top of the game in the years to come, without really having to change much. Personally, I doubt that Tesla would have to do anything other than unleashing more of the beast. Tesla is nowhere near being done with the Plaid yet.
Even Lucid's Tri Motor Air will likely be approaching $200k, and that might be something remotely close to the Plaid in performance. Mercedes is debuting the EQS AMG (which will likely be quite a bit slower, at 3.5 seconds 0-60), at Munich in September, and that will likely be somewhere around the same in pricing. Even these will be way more expensive than the Plaid, and Porsche.... well..... yeah, they're pretty much out, like I was saying earlier.This is a really good point--even if they can bring the technology to bear, to do it within their current pricing structure pushes the price to some multiple of the Plaid. And getting walked by an upstart Tesla is gonna make those plush Porsche seat feel a little less comfy.
Blue plaid, black int w CF and 21s. I had a July EDD for literally one day in mid July (almost as a joke). Been blank throughout, but my order date is late June so I'm not hopeful for EOQ even.
