Tesla Motors - a set on Flickr



I didn't take these photos, so I don't know what VIN they're up to, but it looks like car #54 belonging to Rich (SuperCarnitas) is ready for delivery. Also looks like Martin's car is in the shop, perhaps getting DT1.5 installed?

Thanks for finding the photos. I haven't gotten the "come and get it" call yet, but maybe I should give them a shout from my side.

Sig #54 came home today! Deliveries were apparently paused for a firmware upgrade, but the pipes are flowing again. Hats off to Sorinne, Zak, and the rest of the Tesla gang for the easygoing reception.



Yeah, definitely need to practice in/egress to look less oafish. And I'm like 5'7".

While touring around the assembly area I saw cars numbered in the 90s; there's probably enough for a meet soon!

Congratulations! And thanks for sharing the news. It's good to hear they have cars into the 90's in California.

Good milestone.

Hmm, a firmware upgrade. Does your coolant pump run while parked?

Yes, pumping away as I write. They should show a "included in this update..." list on the dashboard display upon startup. And then maybe prompt me to accept their TOS.
