This conversation is great!

Very helpful advice, everyone. I think I'll be waiting for official confirmation that the new stuff is shipping. Mabye take this to 5K, too.

Me too, no results either.

Other than, a narrowed delivery window mar1-mar8.

Everyone getting their posts in just before the refresh….

Question off topic, and I have found some mentions of this, but what are thoughts on driving modes? is it ok to leave it in insane mode all the time? Does extended long-term use hurt the battery or motors in any way? Not suggesting i floor it all the time, but it does happen on occassion.
Asking for a friend (my right foot….)

You win the 5K games congrats

I have never taken it out of plaid. I guess it uses more energy keeping the battery temps optimized

This has been discussed before and IIRC leaving it in insane mode is fine (won’t harm the car) but will reduce operational efficiency, as it keeps the battery at optimal temp to provide max acceleration on demand.

No problem. Leave it on plaid all the time.

That's track more or drag strip mode. I don't think the normal modes adjust battery temperature for performance.

I have a feeling someone will correct you and say ANR never works...

Maybe it was just improved.

It still uses more battery in plaid mode to optimize battery temp.

Someone claimed that Ludicrous keeps the battery slightly warmer vs Sport. I intend to test that theory. I don't think it's true.

Hey, look what I found

OK. Seriously, for those of you that pressed Like or Informative, it was a joke

Yeah I fell for it. Wishful thinking I guess.
For the battery temp, see the post above yours here.

update: scheduled my delivery for the 6th. On the 5th I will push it out 2 more weeks. The car I was matched with was made on Tuesday so just before the alleged camera and ambient lighting update.

Unsurprisingly, the SA didn’t know anything about the upgrades.

Hopefully by then we will know more.

Update: confirmed by Tesla rep. MSP now ships with new features if ordered today.
