OP - i'm late to the party but to enhance your Tesla-buying experience, make sure you pick up the "essentials" so you're ready to go once it arrives...
if you're going to be using the UMC (included charger) to charge the vehicle daily - which outlet will you be using? 110v is the default and "will get you by" if you drive less than 50 miles/day. i would recommend installing a 240v and probably the standard 14-50 type. if you do this, you will need to order the adapter separately. i had to wait a week to get mine.
floor and trunk mats, especially all-weather are NOT included. i'm not sure if the premium variants still come with "something" but a nice all-weather is going to be superior anyway. pick your favorite brand.
charging cables for your phones, for the center console or a wireless charger will make things easier in the long-run. again, these aren't included.
do you want homelink (garage door opener that's built in to the UI)? that's another $300.
lots of people prefer the vinyl wrap over the piano finish on the center console. it's easy enough to install and doesn't cost much and protects the finish in the long run.
everything else is just preference. screen protectors, paint protective film (PPF), tint, etc. adds lots of cost to the vehicle and aren't "needed" but a lot of people prefer these things. i will say, if you can afford the extra $1500-2000, get the PPF and get the entire front done. you'll have piece of mind.
Thanks, this is awesome advice! We're going to aim for getting a 240v outlet with the 14-50. Good to know about the adapter, that can be ordered ahead of time right? Like a week or two before scheduled delivery date?
Will definitely end up getting floor mats. lol @ favorite brand though, I have no idea other than I'd prefer all-weather over carpet. Suggestions?
No need for homelink as we don't have a garage, but I will end up getting a key fob most likely, just as personal preference. I may end up just using it as a last resort backup.
