    2024 MY "Price Adjustment" Math

    We shall find out in the next 3 weeks. But I fear there's not going to be discounts the end of this quarter. Because they're reducing output instead to reduce inventory. (They'll probably offer just little freebies like premium connection, supercharger miles, etc.) The China factory is reducing...

    Might Tesla Not Do End of Quarter Discounts, If they're Decreasing Production Instead?

    As feared. Surely will be doing the same at other factories. Tesla China planned to cut Model Y production by at least 20% in March-June https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-china-planned-cut-model-y-output-20-percent-march-june-reuters/

    Order before March 1 or wait until end of Q1

    ^ Interesting read. The inventory numbers are still half of what they were in March and April though. This is for Model Y the most popular one.

    Order before March 1 or wait until end of Q1

    I certainly hope so. 🙏 (I made a thread about this) but I fear they are instead just going to be decreasing production instead, as they're doing lots of layoffs at the factories, removed inventory discounts recently, and inventory is still half of what it was in April and March... What gives me...

    Might Tesla Not Do End of Quarter Discounts, If they're Decreasing Production Instead?

    Yeah. although the inventory numbers are still half of what they were in April. I've been watching it hoping it gets back up but it's still quite a ways away from that peak. And they can just keep lowering production to the right level.

    Might Tesla Not Do End of Quarter Discounts, If they're Decreasing Production Instead?

    I know no one can predict Tesla. Just a friendly discussion of peoples thoughts here... But as we know, Tesla removed the inventory discounts recently, many say they will come back at end of quarter. However they have done big layoffs at the factories and plus decreasing production. I fear...

    Supercharger - Danville, CA (under construction Jan 2024, 16 V3 stalls)

    Just saw this new location today and immediately searched TMC to see if there was a thread on it already. Yeah that Plaza is pretty empty. changes owners every 5 years or so. I'm sure there was some favorable, either tax credits for the owners, or maybe Tesla was able to strike a deal for...

    2024 MY "Price Adjustment" Math

    Not to mention the sales tax impact too. Where I live it's just under 11%. $5000 x 1.11% = $5,550. (before the 2k drop today)

    2024 MY "Price Adjustment" Math

    I'm wondering the same thing. Lots of changes going on atm. Will be very interesting to see what they do in the coming months. Maybe instead of discounts they're going to do big rebates at end of quarter, so it technically is still the same advertised price (not discounted). Or perhaps they...

    Current OEM tires

    I just noticed, I think you bought the summer only version? Isnt The OEM Tesla version, an all-season version with M+S in the name? I do see your screenshot does say original equipment, but when you scroll down on the page it's saying throughout, it's a summer high performance tire. So I...

    Current OEM tires

    here we are almost a year later and I'm wondering the same thing. The tire does not show up on Goodyear's website at all as an offering. And when I called Goodyear directly, they said they're out of stock. But they're still for sale on multiple sites including tire rack right now in stock (Feb...

    MY 2024 Refresh - Project Juniper?

    The irony of this announcement (Juniper coming in 2024 but not in North America) is it is meant to discourage people from waiting for the juniper, but I think it's going to make people wait even more so now. Even if it is not for sale, once people hear confirmation of it, people will want to...

    How are Local Inventory Prices Decided?

    Interesting. I just looked up those vins, those are used vehicles though right? The first one is a 2018. Sorry, I was referring to new inventory sitting on lots. Brand new, no miles, and not a demo vehicle. Like I just found a new MYP last week for $51k on a lot, and then the same exact car for...

    How are Local Inventory Prices Decided?

    That makes sense, but I wonder what the policy is, that causes the big price differences and amount of time that has to pass, other factors.

    How are Local Inventory Prices Decided?

    Obviously the longer time on the lot, they reduce it. But is that determined by an algorithm, after x amount of days on the lot? Other factors? Anyone know what that time period is, from a former sales employee/reports?.Like every 7 days in the lot, they drop it $750? etc.... Because sometimes...

    MYLR take delivery in Dec 2022 or wait it out for HD radar in 2023? Don’t ’NEED’ the car but won’t qualify for Federal EV credits either.

    Not the letter alone, but part of the FCC filing does say radar in it. Scroll down to the bottom of the article they have a copy of the drawing/ document. Elektrek.co Tesla files to use a new radar and everyone is confused It seems to be confirmed to be Radar. But yes I totally agree that it...

    Tesla said in their FCC letter they were going to start installing/marketing the new radar in mid january, but nothing yet..... Knowing Tesla, it could be another 6 month delay, another extension, Etc

    Supercharger - San Ramon, CA - San Ramon Valley Blvd. (LIVE 10 Dec 2021, 16 V3 stalls)

    Just came across this. ^ Too bad the i-tea closed down 🙁 I think Boba Bliss put it out of business. I loved the i-tea there, was nice proximity to the charging stations to kill time. Q-tea in dublin used to be an i-tea, then the owners changed the name and drinks (probably to ditch the...

    lol, sad thing is, it probably is just a matter of someone's tweet getting noticed by Elon Musk in order to make it happen.

    The fact that they simply need to apply and have not done so is so unsurprising. What an easy way to push demand, they should get the CVRP back asap.

    How far will current selling prices fall after Jan. 1 ?

    The $7,500 rebate does not really "exist" in 2023. There is a BIG misconception about it and the news reporting on it. It's split into two. $3,750 is based on % of battery components being made in North America. NO car including tesla meets this requirement, nor will in the next year. The 2nd...

    Wheel dimensions confusion

    Sorry if I just dont know what Im talking about here, still learning. But using that calculator tool, it does not account for tire width. So for instance, if I go from a (255 tire) 19 x 9.5" +40mm to a 19 x 9.5" +45mm, the wheel is now exposed/sticking out 5mm more I think. But if I change...

    New MYP owner - My take on ride quality.

    Hey, the wheels you swapped on your MYP wheels to 18s with 245/50-ZR18. Were the wheels 8.5" wide? or 8 inch?

    Martian Wheels order delay for 2 months?

    Ah okay. Cool. On a separate note, (as I dont have the ability to DM yet on the forums, unless maybe someone DM me first, idk), but the pics you posted, is that basic Vinyl wrap, or a PPF stealth wrap? Was going to do the same look on my MYP.

    Martian Wheels order delay for 2 months?

    Oh wow that's nice looking. I'm so stuck on either 19 or 20's of the MW03 for MYP. Given that the factory wheels on the model Y are 9.5" wide wheels, what made you pick the 8.5? Just curb rash protection?

    Martian Wheels order delay for 2 months?

    When you ordered yours, were they shown as in stock on the site at the time? Or backordered? I was going to order MW03 that say in stock, but want to make sure these delay issues are not including some sort of false claims of "in-stock" wheels that are not actually in stock.

    Bought a model Y, how does aftermarket wheels/tires work

    Okay, thanks. I will be going with a 19 x 9.5" +45 for both front and rear and use a 255/45R tire. So that should be fine for the load index. And the front will be the same width/stance as the factory tire (255). But the rear will be downsizing from a 275 to 255.. So it should not effect...

    Bought a model Y, how does aftermarket wheels/tires work

    So if I am looking at downsizing my MYP 21's, to a pair of 19 inch Martian wheels that come in 19 x 8.5" +35 or 19 x 9.5" +45 .... I assume the wider wheel would be better for maintaining acceleration speeds because it means more rubber on the road right? So choosing the 9.5" optin with a...
