With the T5 SSD in the glove box, I bought a 64gb San Disk USB-C ($12 @ Best Buy) for the center console for music and boombox sounds. My sons were quite anxious for my horn to play, “Move Bitch, get out the way…”
After some fiddling around, this is up and running too.
My wife has wanted this to play since the day she heard Teslas could have custom horn sounds...sadly our MYP didn't have the boombox feature.

Been a while since I have posted. I am sure this should be on a different forum however I know this group is very opinionated so I have sought your feedback.
12,000 miles back left tire has incredible wear on the inside edge ONLY on a 1/3 of the tire. Tesla has it today. What do you think is the cause.

I don’t really think I will use this horn sound much in real life but I like the sound of “Tequila” which is very brassy and sounds authentic.
I don't know if your Tesla service Center has an alignment rack but you should ask them what are the standard specifications of alignment settings for the front and rear wheels. That way you will see how far out of spec. this rear wheel was. they owe you a tire!!

The Fremont factory used to do a huge number of deliveries... I picked up my first Model S there years ago.

wow, that looks to me like it was abrading the wheel well or something - on my benz there is a plasticy fender cover that can detach and rub the tire.
Either a manufacturing flaw, you ran over something or you just love taking corners at 120+ MPH.

That would be awesome. I talked to Tesla today, they told me my car was on the train. When he asked if there was anything else, I said “you guys should let me come to Fremont to pick up my car”, he laughed and said that I don’t want to come to Fremont, it’s too busy, too crazy.The Fremont factory used to do a huge number of deliveries...

So I still don't have my VIN with a 6 day range, starting x-mas day. Is it too early to find out if my car has been identified and if it is in transport, or not until a VIN? Thanks! (about to try to hidden webpage vin, yet again...)
You should ask your SA if you have one if not call Tesla main # and punch through to sales...they might tell you something more useful.

Cornering at 120 would wear the outside of the tire, not the inside. Inside is negative camber, but that wear pattern looks to be 30-45 degrees of camber.Either a manufacturing flaw, you ran over something or you just love taking corners at 120+ MPH.

EXACTLY! You get me! Wish my wife did
I'm texting my buddy/neighbor who let me drive his Plaid, just asked him does he think the Plaid is worth $35k more.
He is also talking me out of FSD, i'm just afraid of 1) FOMO and 2) $15k price increase though i think on the board they say ou can remove FSD without a problem. Frankly, FSD...is not.
I'm in same boat, I do find it strange I don't have a VIN. I even installed the chrome extension to try and see if I had a hidden VIN, but nope.

I would imagine wear would be flatter. I think that was something rubbing against the tire.
Same here, have a 5 day window and no VIN either. A bit concerned with xmas coming up and trying to get loan stuff sorted in the middle of a holiday.
They are pretty useless. I have called many times, and they always just tell me that I have the most up to date information, and there is no reason for me to change payment method to loan or try to get an appraisal for my trade-in UNTIL I receive my VIN. It's pretty frustrating. My wife was told at the SC that they had a soft date of Dec 27th, which does line up with my current range.
I do find it strange that I'm that close to that date and don't have a VIN. But hey, they haven't bumped me yet either so there's that!

I don't trust the extension, so I check the code myself, manually, like cavemen used to - nope, no VIN. Really strange. I did as mentioned earlier, get an offer to buy a Plaid. Um, yippie?
I'm all FOR a Plaid. I'm just not all for PAYING for one.
And now, I want a 2022, early January 2022, holding out hope for some sort of tax package that will cover the S. I think there's a 5% chance that will happen, and 95% chance it won't, but it seems like a 100% chance there will be nothing for 2021 deliveries, so....
You know I was being facetious about the cornering part.
