Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[doubleshot]

Ok. Took delivery. Of a pretty much perfect Model S woot.

I didn't see any obvious paint defects. The lines look fine to me. I have the worm.

One big issue that I didn't notice till I was driving. My AC just blows hot air. Thank goodness it's getting cold here but it was 75 today. AC woulda been nice on the drive home. Guess service appt is getting scheduled soon.

Everything was in the car except the cover over the trunk storage. I have to create a service appt for that too. Floor mats, fobs, parcel shelf.

Seats in the rear have a very minor wrinkle. Not anything to bother me. Likely will go away with time.

Doors are hard to close. But they seem to be getting better already.

Drives like a maniac. Love it. Yoke I'm still trying to remember to push buttons to turn.

Overall. Damn thing is awesome. The wait sucked. Today was a good day.

Software is 2021.40.6, said firmware was applied yesterday.

I also had a fun challenge. I kept hitting play on Spotify and it would just stop. Over and over again. Stupid me. I had the volume down to zero. I turned it to 11 and worked fine.

The kitty shirt is the cat from the prototype MS window stickers by the way.

Congratulations! It's a beauty. Perfect 1000th post.

That AC blowing hot might be a big deal. Isn't it the same compressor that keeps your battery cool? Maybe they forgot to charge the cooling system. I think I would show up at the service center / delivery center to confirm there is no risk of damage.

Hmmm. Might be something worth stoping by for. I'm not sure if it's the same system or not. No funny warnings or anything on the dash.

Fingers crossed its not serious. If by chance its just a software issue, have you rebooted the car? Can't hurt.

 

[Laddcruzer]

For the old timers, like me, out there.... Remember the Ford Pinto gas tank deal?

Since I was already in my 30’s when the Pinto fiasco erupted I can only remember the Seventies were more about a sexual revolution than exploding cars. But?

Still getting the 1.49% 65 month rate with DCU. The process is a bit clunky and they're busy, but hard to beat that rate. PM me if you need a referral

Could I please get a referral?

Park it outside tonight just to be safe

Oh and decon wash decon wash!

My CU (Logix) still has low rates. 1.25%, while paying 0.50% on a CD.

Makes sense to take a loan as opposed to pulling money out of retirement accounts.

A great video here, but at about 14 min mark explains why a 4th motor in MS MX will not help in acceleration

What's needed is two more wheels. A Tesla Model S Dualie.

Yea. Did the two scroll wheels and the wheel change method. Nada. Now I do have a warning

Climate keeper unavailable due to system fault. Poo. No heat either.

What about romance mode? You can at least look at the fireplace and have warm thoughts..

I thought Al Gore was the climate keeper and what does he have to do with your system fault. Hope it is not super cereal.

Probably not a romantic mood situation. The “bloom may be off the rose”… is for me.
