    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I’m trying to process the effects of this latest job cuts to our Service Centers. We’ve been fortunate to have very good service in our part the world. Now we’ve lost some longtime experienced people. The logic used to cut those people makes no sense. They certainly weren’t carrying any extra...

    We took delivery today MSLR UR. No drama of any kind. Fit and finish is Excellent!! Took all time we wanted to look it over. Our detailer and I went over the car again later we couldn’t anything more than a little adhesive on some trim. FUSC transferred as soon as I accepted the car in the app...

    Free Supercharging transfer opportunity

    We will be transferring FUSC about an hour from now. But this was the offer from November 2023. Yes the car just arrived here the end of last week….

    This might be an option to consider.. I have a couple of friends using these. https://adhesivereplica.com/license-plate-replicas/usa-license-plate-replicas/minnesota-license-plate-replica We haven't had a front plate for 8 years but may go with the the replica on my wife's new Model S we are...

    They may just surprise you. Ours was just built yesterday so it may even still show up in this weeks Fremont drone flyover.. So we won't see that one for a while. I thought maybe we'd both be getting a car next week with several showing in transit to Minnesota.

    One hundred and sixteen days.... From order to vin. We've accumulated a lot of accessories during that time 😂 Our living room looks like a Tesla accessory center. This one won't count for this quarter though as it will not be in Minnesota until the first couple of weeks in April. Funny thing...

    Yeah definitely hear what you’re saying…. We’ve got some things going on too that it would much, much better to have taken delivery before the end of this quarter also. Maybe they will fool us. Our first Model S was built, put in an enclosed transport and delivered to Minnesota in less than 10...

    You and I are quickly running out of time for Tesla to build a car, get it on a train and then a truck to Minnesota from the rail yard. Probably might be a good thing though. With all those Model Y’s their trying deliver in the next two weeks I would prefer to stay out that mess. I’m looking at...

    I'm pretty sure Golden Valley had that that build sitting in their back lot a week ago... It would be worth a drive to check.

    From what I've seen the lift gate alignment issue can end up being more than a cosmetic concern. If lift gate stops can't be adjusted enough the lift gate will not sit tight and you will have buffeting noise. The worst I've seen was the weekend demo car we had. I noticed it as soon we got on the...

    You can take some solace in knowing you are not alone with that thought. There are a couple of non inventory MSLR at the Twin Cities that don't appear to have a home. But maybe they do but why they seem to be just sitting is anyone's guess? I've been told with an EDD so far out and no vin to now...

    Tesla blesses other cars blocking two stalls due to short cord

    Maybe by accident our local SuperCharger has the best set up for accommodating any charge port location. There is parking on both sides of the pedestals. Confuses Tesla owners from time to time…. Just needs to be signed non Tesla and trailers this side - Regular Tesla charging this side. I...

    I would recommend mud flaps at least on the front on these cars. Doing front and rear… I know.. I know 🫤. That’s in addition to full PPF. We drive a lot miles though. PPF in front of the rear tires would be the absolute minimum. If that’s a person wants to I would think hard about doing the...

    Ordered in November and waiting. But we have a Model S with lots of miles on it. So we’ve been around Tesla for years. Hang in there if you can. Tesla can frustrate at times though we really haven’t dealt with that. As much as we love the one we have this latest generation for us anyway is...

    Regarding your range concerns any of the models you have listed will likely meet or exceed the range of your 100D. The Palladium's are just more efficient. Our experience is that they much quieter also. You probably have checked the Model S inventory for the Twin Cities area so you have some...

    Nothing shady or otherwise… Just the current state of affairs within Tesla. And that’s coming from a hardcore Tesla fanboy and fangirl. So we wait because there really isn’t anything comparable.

    I think the heavy ding on our trade is coming yet. After 3 months it only dropped $500. About the same miles added as you. This one will be my wife's car and she is ready to bust some heads over this mess.

    I'm curious what the earliest order dates are and still waiting on a MSLR for the folks hanging around this thread??

    It’s really past the time that the Tesla board steps up to its responsibility’s put a full time CEO in place. Maybe Tom Zhu??? Let Elon create and think up crazy stuff. Today’s Tesla needs a more stable individual to lead the company. You could see this happening through the years. Elon was...

    My SA has heard a few different reasons for the delays and one is that they are resetting the line building the MS. Another is that they have changed the dates for the build cycle for the MS/MX. Barely a sprinkle of cars in MS/MX lot in todays Fremont flyover... Only time will time will tell...

    Those of us who ordered last year thought we’d missed the end of year crush. Now we’re looking more and more at the end of the quarter crush. Even the truly good SA’s don’t have answers. All the possible transfers are a wonderful thing but we need a car to transfer it too….

    We didn't get too specific on pricing but about $1000.00 and very near 1 thousand miles. It had 21" wheels and we really need 19" because of shitty roads. I knew they had it because it's been there awhile accumulating miles. They really weren't pushy about it just offering. We'll wait for a new...

    I haven’t seen them angled. As long as the bumpers on the hatch set tight against them. You can test that with a strip of paper between the adjustable stop and the bumpers on the hatch. Close the hatch on the paper. If you can pull it out easily it’s too loose. Extend the stop until it takes...

    Fedchoice does not have a prepayment penalty. That will be stated on your loan documents.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I believe the discount now is .25% The rates increased also. Those who applied earlier locked in the old rates even if they had closed on their loans yet. My understanding is they are making a LOT of Tesla loans.

    We ordered yesterday morning also. Our SA has been monitoring the build dates and order volume pretty closely. She texted me with “The time to order is now” Our focus is more on the FUSC transfer than a 24 vin. We’ll see how it plays out but just looking forward having another Model S in the...
