Same here. Look at the power curve
Fast speed, slow hands. Brace your elbows against your stomach and try to control unintentional wheel inputs. This will keep the fronts stable. If you add any input, they will start hunting for grip. Tesla’s traction control will manage it (way better than any other car on the planet) but you must remember your are dealing with HP levels that would “blow the tires off” most any other car. That is a term of art in the hotrod world for going from best slip grip to spinning and smoking.

This has me worried, I'm also RN1147, W/W/19. I'm worried about picking up the car in cold weather if it has summer tires on it, my SC is about 50 miles away.

The above was more for the Plaid but still applies for the LR doing 125 mph 1/4 mile trap speeds.
can you find another LR owner to compare and rule in/out alignment or other issues?

I am pretty sure all 19s are going to be all seasons? I guess no one knows because none have been delivered yet..
Kinda OT: since there are quite a few first-time buyers here...I've updating electric-moose.com -- it's a site I maintain as a resource for new Tesla/EV owners with the goal of helping them get off to a solid start. Check it out (it's free/not monetized) and also looking for ideas on topics.

One idea of a topic to add: delivery checklist. Now that we have a bunch of refresh deliveries, common issues and factory defects to keep an eye out for would be great to see in one consolidated list. Thanks again Omar!
I believe the floor is 0.99 from what my advisor told me and honestly I'm sufficiently happy with that

Having been in both the MY and Mach-E, what your neighbor stated about ride quality is completely true. Even in 19" LR form, the Y rides almost similar to the Performance 3. Some like it, and I'm pretty sure it could benefit handling, but some would definitely see the value of the softer ride. The MY really needs adaptive dampers (without the air suspension of course) that way they could sort this out.

I wonder if this point in the acceleration has anything to do with the throttling of the LR 0-60 time.Same here. Look at the power curve
The slope seems to follow the tire traction curve. Plaid departs all the rest exactly where you and I are feeling the issue. Power is building beyond anything Tesla has done before. It is also building beyond what a vast majority of people have ever been exposed to.

Not really a long wait. That is 6 months. I'm on month 6 and looks like I got a couple more to go.
Perhaps also try a softer suspension setting as well. Not sure what you are used to driving, but a stiff suspension can make the the car seems a bit twitchy. If you have the suspension set to "Auto" the car might the tightening up the suspension on you under hard acceleration.Same here. Look at the power curve

I'm looking at changing up the suspension with an aftermarket kit for our MY LR. I've not seen/heard enough to commit to the expense, but I think it's almost a necessity. Unplugged Performance has something with a "luxury" ride set of coilovers.
My EDD is shifting, but only the first date, the second/last date is holding. I'm hoping that's a good sign??!
Does anyone remember what generally happened to others with orders with only the first date slipping (and therefore the window tightening)? Lead to a VIN, or just the same old monkey randomness?

when I call the dealership they tell me that they can’t see any different information than I can. One of us is getting lied too

Hopefully those do you well! I bet those UP coilovers are in pretty high demand.
