    2024 Model S: Park Assist?

    Hi all - Question, does the 2024 Model S LR have parallel parking guide/assist? I know it beeps, but wondering if it has auto-park? I have not seen it on my car and was wondering if I'm missing where to engage it - if it exists. Thanks in advance,

    My new 2024 Model S LR

    Will PM you a video. In short, yes, we had to change the garage door setup a bit to accommodate the side of the garage with the lift due to ceiling height. I'll send you a video in a few moments once I go shoot it.

    Rear Screen, Audio Question - 2024 Model S LR

    Hi - I just received my 2024 Model S LR and have a question re: rear screen and audio. I apologize if this has been answered before. Does the rear screen and it's associated audio work independent of the big front primary screen or is there only one channel for audio for the entire car? I am...

    My new 2024 Model S LR

    I haven't heard about the steering wheel issue. I'll keep my eyes open for that. So far, I haven't noticed anything. As for Homelink, it's installed and I'm already using it ;)

    My new 2024 Model S LR

    Ha! Love it. The lift... has housed a variety of 911s. I think the Porsche + Tesla are a great combination. To the right is a GLE53 AMG for the wife.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I picked my 2024 Model S LR up yesterday. I'm super excited to have it. I'm still getting used to the new Shifter (on screen) and the turn signal (on wheel). These may not be new to the car, but they are new to me. Lots have changed since I had my first Model S in 2015-2016. Attached are some...

    My new 2024 Model S LR

    Here she is! I picked her up yesterday. The 2024 Model S Long Range in White with White interior. My wife and daughter pushed for that (not my choice). It’s my third Tesla, my second Model S since 2015. i need to get used to the Shifter, which I had no idea moved to the screen. Not a problem...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    FWIW, my 2024 Model S LR which has been on "hold" due to EPA seems to be ready for delivery next week. I got a message from the app saying that I can schedule my delivery. Not sure if this will get cancelled or not, but fingers crossed for Tuesday late afternoon. Looking forward to finally...

    Old vs. New Tesla Home Charger

    It's a good question. We shall see when I return it. Right now, stuck in this EPA debacle. My car is at the dealership but they cannot give it to me yet.

    Does that number hold true in MA where the temps are 18-32 degrees right now?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    So with this EPA delay, what does this mean for our cars which are sitting on the Tesla lots? Are our batteries going to go to zero? Any cause for concern? Apparently my car is at the Dedham, MA lot now, but will sit until March or April?

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Here's a fun/not-so-fun delivery update. I ordered a 2024 Model S LR in white with white interior (my daughter's choice). Ordered in early January. Was supposed to arrive 2/18-25. I got a message in the app saying the dates shifted to 2/20-27 but an email shortly thereafter from my local...

    Old vs. New Tesla Home Charger

    Hi - I'm a current Tesla owner who uses the below charger for my Tesla Y which is coming off lease any day now. I'm upgrading to a 2024 Model S Long Range and wondering if I should get the new Tesla charger or if I should just keep this one? Does the newer one have any benefits other than...

    Was in the Tesla showroom in Dedham, MA a couple weekends ago and saw this beautiful Plaid. Note the interior.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Just checked my Tesla app and shows my delivery of my new Model S went from Jan-Feb to now, Feb-March. Makes sense as so few days left in January.

    Do we think the deliveries going forward in 2024 will be the 2024 MS and MSPs with the rumored updates?

    Just placed my order for a Model S LR today... excited to receive it. The gentleman who called me from Tesla Loyalty said it could be as early as Valentines day arrival or shortly thereafter.

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    Touche. Sometimes, I just need to say it out loud. Just wanted to make sure I was not making a bone-headed decision.

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    Ha! Yes, well, I do like the callipers and the spoiler. Seems those can be achieved thru the aftermarket.

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    Hi - yes, sadly, it's the spoiler + calipers that do it for me. Glad they can be done in the aftermarket. This was helpful. this pretty much sealed the deal for me!

    2024 Model S vs. Plaid

    First, thank you to all who have been super helpful. I have been debating the Model S vs. Plaid version. To start, I do not need any of the performance of the Plaid as the Model S is plenty for me. I do not intend to track the car and I've driven my Model Y on "Chill" mode for the most part...

    Model S Purchase Question

    Hi - I am considering a new 2024 Model S or Model S Plaid. I currently have a Y and had an S prior. I have seen many folks talk about how the 19s vs. 21 inch wheels are the way to go for comfort and ride. I live in New England and usually switch into snow tires during the winters. Would I be...

    NYC -> Philadelphia in Model S

    Thank you very much for the tips. I charged to 100% of my battery (first time - it's normally charged to ~85%) and made it down there with about 140 miles left on it. I could have gone the whole way home but my range anxiety would have kicked in. I went to the Hamilton Supercharger (thanks to...

    NYC -> Philadelphia in Model S

    Hi all, I'm prepping for my first long drive (after 2,700 miles of local-ish driving) in my Model S 90D. I need to go down to Philadelphia on Wednesday morning and back Wednesday evening. I could easily take the Amtrak down there but I think that this would be a fund drive in the Model S. Any...

    New owner, any recommendations?

    Hi all, I'm a new owner of a 2015 Model S 90D. I just brought her home last night and she'll be my daily driver. Are there any tips or recommendations you might have in order to keep her at optimal performance? During the week, I drive about 10 miles per day (5 miles each way to the train)...

    Owners delivery stories, photos and first impressions

    Took delivery of a 2015 90D last night at the Mount Kisco, NY sales and service center. I drove the car for about 40 miles (out of my way) to get home and have to say that I'm extremely impressed. This again is my first impression but I don't regret it one bit. The car is has pretty much...

    Model S - Thinking of Finally Ordering, though quick questions

    I've been a fan of the Model S since it came out but just did not have the need for the car. I had a down payment on the Model X - but recently reclaimed it as I had seen the X in person (@ private event in SF) and didn't like the look of the truck/car/whatever. My questions around the Model...

    Excited for my model x

    Just came back from the Westchester Mall in NY and put a down payment on the Model X. I've been tracking TESLA for a while now and was going to pick up the Model S about 6 mos ago but just couldn't get over unknowns around battery powered cars. The reviews of the Model S have been extremely...

    Yes, I'll have a plug. Just was worried if it sits outside during the day (at trainstation parking lot) while not plugged in?

    Do Northeast Winters Affect Battery?

    Hi all, I'm debating on picking up a Model S Performance edition. I'd love to know any thoughts on how a New York (north east) winter might affect performance and range. Will the cold winter months drain the battery? I don't want to wake up in the morning and not be able to drive my car. It...
