In any case, if it is a business vehicle, the depreciation is tax deductible over the life of the vehicle reducing your tax liability.

After more than a year, I own a 2022 MX!
I've got this sinking feeling that I'm not actually going to get my MX before the end of 2021...
Happy New Year Y'all!

Stop with the excuse making. It's hideous and definitely not normal. It might be how most yokes look now but some don't have it and there is variability in it's appearance so it's not planned.
Jeez.

Plaid is scary!
All, It’s very possible this was a car someone else could not take delivery of so they found the closest match. I’m definitely not saying anything with Tesla deliveries makes sense, but this is likely based on the order date and location.

Interior fit and finish, and noise Intrusion are a lot better in the refresh than my 2019. As far as driving dynamics are concerned, my 2019 is a pre-raven Model X. Got it in early 2019. It’s also the performance (P100D) version and is equipped with 22” wheels. The refresh long range I have been driving certainly rides better than my P100D, (handling and ride are a little softer even on sportiest suspension settings). I attribute that to the fact it has 20” wheels, so it’s a little more compliant / forgiving than the 22”s would be. Still, I’d much rather be in this rental than my 2019. As I mentioned in another thread, I’m dreading picking mine up from the service center after I turn in this rental. Can’t wait to take delivery of my 2022 MX Plaid next month

Taycan is a little pricer. My neighbor has a Taycan Turbo S and it was $200K before options. Those yellow calipers sure look good, but that money I will buy my own yellow paint.Don’t worry, I also live 10mi from the factory and don’t have a VIN for a 6st Plaid With 22s. 6/15 order.
Maybe I should just that Taycan that would be totally irrational and not spacious but it drives like a dream
So oddly, My May 2021 LR 5 seat order is still unsurprisingly "February" with "building your car" in the app
But my December 2021 Plaid 6 seat order change to TBD today from "October"
with "schedule delivery appointment" in the app
Wonder if/what this may mean. My experiment continues....

My views on the Yoke Worm:
It should be noted and talked about.
Yes, the majority of Yokes have the worm and it very well may never see a true resolution. But to let Tesla off the hook, tell them that this is okay and accept it sets the precedent that minor imperfections are acceptable.
If I saw this on a $20k Honda Civic I would say yeah, totally nbd. But Tesla, a company selling a $100k+ car who has publicly stated that the Refresh X costs them less $ to make (than the 2019 version) - this tells me that they are willing to cut corners to make money. "classic business move" one might think
My point - I am certainly going to notate it to my SC and give the issue publicity. I am aware it serves a practical purpose (airbags) but what they should have done is simply modified the product design.

I have a theory on this... I am wondering if EDDs do not actually indicate a delivery date but actually which production cycle they will be produced in.So oddly, My May 2021 LR 5 seat order is still unsurprisingly "February" with "building your car" in the app
But my December 2021 Plaid 6 seat order change to TBD today from "October"
Wonder if/what this may mean. My experiment continues....
Prior to the refresh and to the Model Y, Fremont would alternate the production line between the S, 3 and X. You would see periods of time where not a single X was produced. (small number of days)
Note that all X orders placed through July 2021 currently show a "February" estimated delivery date. In the beginning of August 2021 Tesla moved the EDD for new orders to April and subsequently following later months. Purely speculation - but I wonder if following the delivery of all orders up through July 2021 the production takes a pause. If this is true then EDDs are actually an indicator of which production cycle it is planned to be produced in.
Just a thought! Time will tell.

Any bets on when all our Februarys become Marchs? My bet is Thursday January 13…
And perhaps that batch of LR (especially non-6 seaters) is now on indefinite pause until Plaids get ramped up. Wondering what the new TBD means.
Still really crazy to think that a Dec 2021 order would come that much more quickly (granted a high profit margin for Tesla if I were to get the Plaid over the LR)

It's becoming like a crowded place with multiple lines to get tickets where you don't know which one is moving faster and you keep switching lines just to see the other one move faster. I think deploying a "second person" to be in "the other line" may be better ;-)
Like many others, I’m a long time lurker, and finally got around to registering. No, I didn’t just receive a VIN. I’d like to be a contributor, but since I never owned a Tesla before the only thing I’ve experienced is the wait. I ordered in April and was told the infamous “deliveries will begin in 2 weeks” followed by the countless EDD changes. I’ve read all the posts so I’m up to date, but I need to post to access the PM function. I also just added my data on the spreadsheet. Now I sit back waiting to have something from Tesla to share.
