Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[patt0n]

Anyone know where the rail hub is for the North East?

I am in NC and my car is coming from the Birmingham, AL rail center. Might be different if you're in NJ, etc

Elon said that the data collection doesn't start until you approve the access. So the 7-days of monitoring start after you click the button to request the FSD beta.

That can be interpreted either way. Making the request approves access to history and/or go forward only?. Still doesn't make sense to release the feature tomorrow and not have anyone get the software for a week or more. Guess time will tell....

Edit: If you think about it, Tesla knows we all would all be gaming it "after" pressing the button, just to get the update. They implemented this for liability reasons, so it makes more sense that you are granting access to the last seven days of history - If they are truely doing this dance solely to enroll more safe drivers, initially.

So nice !! Your car makes my car look boring.

Remember, when in the plaid, YOU look fabulous...

Agree, although IIRC, in the past, there has been some delta between the official EPA numbers and what the car seems to use.

That's why I said, "...about 324 miles..."

 

[ks1972]

I'll look at it. This 118 mile trip is scheduled to consume 60% of my charge. Seems very aggressive. I switched to Chill mode for the full trip.

Looks like they put a 2016 90D battery in your car

I swear he had another tweet that specifically said after, but I can't find it right now.

People will get it tomorrow, the current FSD beta testers. And if it goes badly they may pull the offer from the beta request people before their 7-day stats are gathered and approved. (Or a new version could be released next Friday when the requests are granted.)

Could be... As I said, it's just not clear what seven day window will be run through the Tesla insurance algorithm. "Time will tell...."

 

[mihirparmar]

Completely agree. I wonder if there's something about the config of the cars that is making the difference, besides the white interior?

If someone has been waiting for this config, I'd love to get them into this car. And no, I'm not looking to make any money off of this. Is there any way that this car can be transferred to someone that has been waiting longer?

This car will be going to the Las Vegas, Nevada store, btw.

Can you share your config?

It is very clear:

I imagine it’s based on going forward. Opt in, 7 days from now get potential access. Giving them permission to access data in the past is dicey, especially if those people never gave Tesla access in the first place to collect such data.

*Edit*

Ah there’s the response above. Going forward.

Also, bear in mind we may not see the new S get in quite yet. As far as I’m aware there’s no refresh on the EAP FSD program. Guess we’ll see!

I'm guessing that they will continue to monitor our driving after we get the beta too. Might take a lot of the fun out of driving our cars. I want the beta but if I have to chill my driving I might pass for now.

$40K for plaid....have to drive like a granny to use FSD...

Mine were missing at 8/25 delivery and have still not arrived.

So they responded back to my service ticket and I have a mobile appointment set up for 9/28 and they listed all the missing parts on the estimate. So it's possible they have them back in now. We'll see for sure that day.

I don’t see it being explicitly stated ‘after’. There is no clear verbiage regarding when the 7 day window begins. But then again, I am ESL (English as a Second Language).

[Edit] Never mind. Appears a different Tweet clarified matters.

 

[Mokuzai]

I got a delivery date! They gave me a home delivery. My friend also had a home delivery and they texted him if he wanted to pick it up in person a day earlier. I called Tesla and let them know I'd like to do that but for now they're keeping my home delivery appointment.

Well, that brings a question to mind, since Tesla has access to all of the driving history.... If the button goes "live" tomorrow, and we "Request" the beta firmware via the new button, does the seven days start at button click (meaning no one will see a download for at least seven more days), or seven days prior to the "request"? I would think the system looks at your past seven days of driving, from the point in time when you request the update, via this new "button". Makes more sense if that were the case. So, I started driving better a week ago....

So riddle me this, joker..........what if we haven't driven at all in the last 7 days?

I think you could hinge on the word "is" versus "was" - was being looking historical, is being after pressing the button.

For you Plaid owners with 19's, if you HAD to pay the extra for the 21's would that have been a dealbreaker?

Congrats! When did you order? Trying to decide if I should be upset about someone getting white seats before me.
