Double edge sword. They charge non Tesla's more per kwh, so why not let the competition charge as fast as possible to charge more per minute and free up the stall for the next customer? Of course if they really want to game it, they'll only do that when the SCs are crowded.

The only estimate I've seen for how much it costs them to make an MSP is $93K. Granted, that estimate is from an article written when MSRP was a lot higher. But still, I can't imagine they're making any money on the S right now especially after factoring in warranty service/repairs.
Hmm, didn't it go from $135.9 to $89.9 for the MSP? That would be $46 for a white one and $48.5K drop for an UR.

I can only hope if I have to sell my car, that USS and yoke will be seen as collectibles...
OK, so that's what you paid. But you said they "They did just drop the price on the plaid by $43k." which is not true. They dropped the price $46K for the base with no options.
Once you factor in the price drop of other options like paint and FSD, they dropped the price over $50K.

Oh wow, you are right. I didn't notice that price increase or forgot about it since mine was already locked in.

Thanks for saying what many seem to dance around. Rock chips minimized.It def looks ok. I agree with the points made before, and add:
The flaps are self trimming...
They eliminate almost all the rock chips on the rear quarter panel.
They give early warning when approaching an entrance that you need to raise the suspension.
Have you considered Rally Armor or TSportline? I like the idea of TS's carbon fiber look, but if it fails it's primary purpose...
Lastly do you know if your paint near or in contact with the mud flaps remains undamaged?
Man, 200 beans for the CF flaps from TS. I'm a function over form kinda person. I like things to be functionally sound but clean and as out of sight as possible, so I prefer the stock approach. I personally wouldn't spend that money on flaps but I guess if you had a bunch of other CF on the car it would make sense.

I did not consider aftermarket since the OEM were reasonably priced, and have held up well. However the car is never driven on dirt, gravel, or in the rain, and although I don't have any significant damage under the one flap I removed, that might not be typical.
The flaps will are self removing in a frangible sense if you go over a large speed bump with the suspension not in high...
And I think Tesla finally gave up, the EDD disappeared completely and I think likely we are now looking into 2024 model year, hopefully. Fingers crossed.
I think system will reseed the dates either tomorrow morning or on the 1st.

A few others here have ordered these from Yeslak so I ordered a set. Got their Black Friday deal so a set of four was only $20.00 more than 2 OEM. I also have the OEM set which I think may have been re-designed because they are shorter and more flexible than people were saying. Now I just need the car to try them on

They've got one by me. Only $2k discounted with 2k miles. That's nuts.
We didn't get too specific on pricing but about $1000.00 and very near 1 thousand miles. It had 21" wheels and we really need 19" because of shitty roads. I knew they had it because it's been there awhile accumulating miles. They really weren't pushy about it just offering. We'll wait for a new build.
I get the feeling we're in a March '21 situation. Get ready for a bit of a refresh and a $15K price bump lol.
