    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Exactly. PPF is a waste of money on a depreciating asset. Ceramic will help a bit with resisting chips but don't expect miracles. The main reason do ceramic is the ease of cleaning.

    About that "yoke" steering wheel

    Compensation bias? That's hilarious and I'm going to use that. Thing about confirmation bias is that the people doing it aren't supposed to know they're doing it, right? I plan to buy a model S at some point in the next year or two, even if it has a yoke. But what I'm hoping for is some...

    Yoke Steering

    What's interesting is that if I mute your commentary and just watch, it looks like someone struggling and just trying to make a bad idea work.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Good news for anyone waiting for a LR white/black with 19s, you just moved up one place in line. I canceled my S order yesterday and will be taking delivery of an M3P this weekend. I'm doing this because of the yoke but not because I don't think it (sorta) works or that I wouldn't get used to...

    About that "yoke" steering wheel

    As a follow up, my decision is based on personal preference and not necessarily on concerns over safety. While it may be something that is easy-ish to adapt to and relatively safe, only time will tell. I'm willing to wait.

    About that "yoke" steering wheel

    I have an S on order and was hoping Tesla would come to their senses and offer a round wheel before my delivery date. At the same time I decided to order an M3P as a back up (I currently drive a 2018 LR 3 and had a 2015 S before that). At this point the 3 will be available in a couple weeks and...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Also, will it float, is it bullet proof, and can you hose out the interior after field dressing a rhino?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I was going to offer this as a suggestion. While the sound quality is crap for music it is a great option for news and sports. For me, I like ESPN U for college sports when I'm out doing property inspections. The benefit is that I can start a show (usually Full Ride in the morning) and then...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    My wife just said the same thing though she hates the yoke more than I do. You're both right, it doesn't hurt but if I take delivery on the 3 then I'll drive that for a few years before circling back around. I currently have a 2018 3 LR RWD and like it. I had an S before that and both are good cars.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Welp, I started the process of cancelling my LR white S yesterday by ordering an M3P (says July 6 to 26 delivery). I had my doubts about the yoke and after seeing videos of people driving the car they have been confirmed. It's not for me. I'll contact Tesla tomorrow to formally cancel the S. For...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I did this a could days ago and my delivery date changed from June 22-30 to blank. But in light of current activities (the monkey) these are probably not related.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Been checking in on this thread every few days. I just go to the last page, back up about three pages, and that pretty much covers anything of substance. Which is probably an oxymoron--this thread and substance. Anyways... RN11477 Ordered April 9 LR White on black Arachnid wheels Delivery June...

    Marshmello smile on Tesla?

    Dude, I feel you. This car is great but it needs something on the front to improve it's attitude. If I'm honest, from certain angles looking at the front, it can look like a VW bug. Which is why I try not to look at the car when I'm walking toward the front. Because if I do, I always just want...

    Kind of regretting getting SR+ and not LR or AWD, anyone?

    I have a LR and never use the entire battery in a day. Not even close. When I bought it it was the only option. I was coming out of a lease on a Model S 85 and that had a rated range of 265 but based on my driving was closer to 230-240. When I first got the S I was sure the range was going to be...
