Hi - my parents finally got a VIN number with a man estimated delivery date two weeks out. They plan to pay cash. Their online account is saying they have to pay cash upfront in advance - in fact it is saying payment is due today. This seems very unusual but I wanted to get feedback from others...

I called again today and they said that my profile wasn’t completed until today. Which is BS because I know it was complete and this isn’t my first time going through the purchase process. Seems like there was some kind of glitch or something as I did nothing different through the app, I simply...

Because my estimated date is further out than an order for an identical car with FSD made today?

Estimate. They gave the supply chain excuse.

It’s still present.

Base LR MY in grey to be paid in cash.

This is not how they treated me before I bought my M3. I had an estimated delivery that was more or less aligned with my actual delivery date. No games were played.

The order was placed in mid-July 2021.

We had an original delivery date for our MY of November 2021, we have now been pushed back 3 times with an expected delivery date of August or September 2022. It’s clear that this is happening because we are locked into a lower price. It’s also entirely unethical that we could have a June...

It’s really not that confusing. Just press the button on the left stalk.

Cool, I wonder if there was a way for you to say that without being an ass? I spoke with a rep at tire rack who specifically stated that tire is doesn’t perform as well in wet conditions as other tires mentioned here. But honestly, I don’t really care about people like you.

The same hypochondriacs are complaining about things like tire pressure moving. And that somehow this makes it dangerous because they have to click a few times while driving…as if they should be looking at tire pressure while driving.

I don’t believe the CrossClimate2s are very good in rain.

Because people like to complain. The same people that are complaining about the extra touches are complaining about things like tire pressure and trips - as if these things should be messed with while driving.

No, but people are complaining about having an extra rap for things like trip logs and tire pressure. Two things that shouldn’t viewers while driving a “potential death machine.”

Comparing your SOC to efficiency ratings as if they are useful equivalents? Poor argument. I’m done listening to all the whining. Thoughts and prayers for everyone’s additional clicks.

If this is the root cause of your concerns than it fees exceptionally misplaced as you can still easily access trip data. It’s not like the update removed the function entirely.

What ICE cars use or don’t use fuel for is irrelevant. The vast majority of drivers need only to know the rough SOC of their vehicle in order to feel comfortable about their drive. Which makes this a very meaningful figure. So now you have to “click” two “buttons?” Instead of one?

The fault in your analogy is that your ability to view efficiency wasn’t removed. Moreover, viewing efficiency ratings is likely far less important to the majority of Tesla’s customers than the other items you mentioned. There is nothing damaging in liking the new interface - stop with the...

Lol, in what word is remaining battery % meaningless? I guess you think a fuel gauge is meaningless in an ICE too?

Honest question, but why is that important in 95% of circumstances when you aren’t going to run your battery to below 10% and/or don’t have easy access to charging stations?

But why do you need to see your trip information when there is an icon showing your remaining battery %?

The amount of focus on tire pressure and trips in this thread is just silly. I can’t imagine spending this much time complaining about such trivial things. That aside, I find the only true downside to this update is that when the map is hidden directions have been moved to the very bottom of...

How did you modify the Aeros like that?

Tesla Autopilot won't change lanes for you either...

They can’t release a software update without breaking things so my trust level on FSD is nonexistent. But yea, they are constantly moving the goal posts while simultaneously increasing the price. It will be ready by 2025 for $30k.

This, but in my “slow” LR 3. Even this car is a good bit faster than it ever “needs” to be.

The owner’s manual suggests leaving it plugged in when not driving.

Imagine being so obnoxious and so wrong at the same time. See 2-3 posts above you.

My screen now freezes every time I try to leave Netflix. Typical OTA that “improves” a couple new things an breaks just as many features.

Easy solution is to check the cabin temp with a thermometer

Or the perceived level of comfort has changed as it’s gotten colder.

Military never worth the freezing cold or burning hot. Plan properly and drive in comfort.

So you want to go to small claims court because you have to drive a mediocre car for two weeks? Seems like you’ve already spent an unreasonable amount of time on this. Drive the mediocre car for a couple weeks and you’ll enjoy your Tesla that much more.

People who don’t use heat when it’s cold out to save a few miles aren’t fun at parties.

“Some” being the operative word. And that’s cool that you heat your garage to work in it, nice anecdote.

Nothing like burning a fuel source to keep your EV warm (assuming not using solar)... I often forget that not everyone buys an EV because they care about the environment.

Why are they putting out cars with diff hardware within such a short period of time? This tells me they aren’t testing properly and are solely focused on pushing sales.

Anyone having heating issues as reported by Elektrek?

Seems so. Basically the replace horn feature isn’t functional.

This all seems like so much effort for so little reward.

Yes because it is only $120 a year and far more convenient than trying to tie into my phone each time I get in the car. I’ve been working from home but going out for drives has been my refuge from quarantine.

I would think most drivers would be able to feel the regen capacity and that the bar wouldn’t mean much short of knowing whether or not regen would be limited.

Except how many people have FSD? And at $10k, how many people will pay for it in the future when we all know it will never work well with the current hardware.

Bummed about that boombox limitation. Ideally there should be a setting that turns off all other car functions and allows you to control the music from the Tesla App. This would make an already great tailgate vehicle superb. Then again we have plenty of time in the Northeast for Tesla to fix...

And what is the point of the “replace horn” feature in the boombox if it automatically turns off if the car is in drive? And the horn selection seems to automatically reset each time I get in the car. The only decent enhancement as part of this software “upgrade” is that your next driving...

Sarcasm, right?

I am no fundamentalist, but the climate crisis is quite real - unless you don’t give a *sugar* about future generations, then you are gravy.

Yep, now we have the privilege of a shrunken map and menus and a bunch of off-white garbage that isn’t necessary for driving.

Which, for whatever reason, Musk is rarely held accountable for.
