This morning there was really bad traffic on an interchange overpass, so TACC was creeping slowly uphill. Think it topped out at 489 wh/mi since the morning charge, haha. By the time I was at work it was down to a nice 249 wh/mi.

Quite positive that is normal. Most steering geometry is designed to do that to decrease the turning radius.

My car was deemed a total loss today and due to an accident? I get to wait on a new VIN and all contracts have to be rewritten between Tesla and my bank. Just when I thought I was almost at the finish line...

To my understanding it was only mine. I don't know if they located an issue that required it to go back or be scrapped or if it was actually like a truck hauling them all had an accident.
Everything was going to be finalized today. Good thing I work from home, but that still puts me in a bind.
I'm in the same boat as you! My car was supposed to arrive in Austin on 4/19, and I had a scheduled delivery for 4/21.
They called me on 4/19 though, with some bad news. The truck driver damaged the car during transport, and rather than fix the car, they would try to find me a new car with my config. I told them that I sold my car to coincide with my delivery date, and didn't have any transportation, and requested a loaner, which they happily obliged (P85D). I saw my car at the SC when I picked up the loaner, and there was a huge crack from the roof to the bottom of the rear windshield. The loaner experience has really helped ease the pain, but I still don't have an ETA on when I can expect a new VIN, or what the plan is. I contacted my ISA 2 days ago, who said he is out of the loop as well, but had heard that they might "try and repair [my] vehicle in the meantime to see if the parts come in and everything. Otherwise they are waiting for a vehicle with [my] configuration to arrive to assign to [me] and deliver to [me] ASAP."

I am bummed for you guys that couldn't get your cars. That would have devastated me so I hope you get your cars ASAP.
I don't know how everyone is getting 245 wh/mi. Haha I just looked and I am in the 280's for my total average and my last run was in the 320 range. But then I also probably should request donations for tires soon.

Haha! After the first day where I was mashing the electricity pedal every chance I got, I calmed down. Now I'm spending a week driving like I normally would to understand my normal range. After that I will have more fun with it.

You are way more responsible than I am. I pray to get pole position at every light. I haven’t enjoyed red lights this much in 10 years.

I drive a 2006 Prius, so a low bar.
I might be sexier than that. Probably not though...

Finally seeing momentum with MSM/Aero configs from the 3/22 batch. I hope that carries right on through to the 4/6 batch!
EDIT: right after making this post, the latest VINs table shows the first MSM/Aeros from 4/6!
