yes and as @Jhodgesatmb as suggested, that shouldn’t be any surprise from the moment 1130’s got configuration invites before lower RN numbers put differently, Tesla is preferentially treating influencers etc., just as they have been all along

respectfully, this is sort of a BS cop-out it’s a cop out for people to keep responding “lots of people can’t see behind them” which is to distort the point of the comments being raised: essentially, “it would be nice to see behind the truck (or in fact I strongly prefer it)” it’s as if...

Which observations are neither normative nor prescriptive just because there are people who drive trucks without rearviews (or larger side mirrors, or installed rearward cameras, etc.), doesn’t mean other people should, or should have to

top of mind for me, because I do if I’m going to have to look at a video (and so rely on nearsighted vision), it’s better for me that the video is at dash level than up at the headliner as for the portion of the population? I’d suspect it’s greater/greatest at the age range of folks buying...

Unless you enjoy comedy

maybe I was unclear I wasn’t intending to say anything about the location of the “mirror”/“screen” in the vehicle whether the mirror/screen is up on the normal windshield area, or down on the dash, is irrelevant to the (limited) point I was making yes, your eyes have to “readjust,” either...

one issue that neither throttle house nor anyone on this thread have pointed out: depending on your eyesight, there can be a big difference between a mirror and video if you are nearsighted, you’ll see a video image better (because the “far away” image is actually near you, on the screen) if...

Reality in middle meanwhile, the two sides: • CT panels falling apart Rapidly • CT panels made of unobtainum, unable to be marred beyond reasonable expectations of aesthetics for a $120K vehicle Not all stainless is created equal, and each type represents compromises between the various...

apparently the NHTSA website is merely a “portal” that pulls from the Tesla-internal data stream. So if Resla turns off the main tap, neither the Tesla website faucet nor the NHTSA website faucet will flow as for the embedded question, of why all and only CT VINs aren’t returning, no clue -...

yea, it’s bizarre completely from the arm chair on this one, only thing I can imagine is that the same regulatory treatment of FS that at the moment is permitting of sales absent EPA finalization, etc., may similarly permit of sales absent VIN recall data and that previously, Tesla was feeding...

fair enough - up in these ranges there was some apparent reconnoitering as they began expanding beyond the original 1,000FS build plan At the same time, two other things possibly going on here: (1) maybe a conflation here between when they’re activating VINs vs the order in which they’re...

generally not the case, as they’ll build AWDs in order of increasing VIN. If they skip forward, it’ll be because eg the skipped gap was eg, already built for another purpose (eg skipping over the previously built MC units at 800-910), or is reserved for another trim in the build plan (eg...

im not sure what you mean by “unfinished series” but in the main, the only gaps below 21XX at this point are for Cyberbeasts there are otherwise 110 manufacturing confirmation units in there (800-910) and 20 non-FS showroom units (1200-1219)

Tesla’s glazing is already supposed to address this before you spend on additional films, have a reputable tent shop use their meters to determine how much blocking (of all UV spectrums) the existing glazing is already accomplishing That should help you hone in on whether the existing glazing...

there is no “second” line there’s the GFTX line its line capacity for 2024 is 125K units / yr It can be optimized/expanded, apparently, to 250k / yr - which according to Q3 call Musk predicts will be realized sometime in 2025 (adjust how you see fit Musk’s timing predictions) beyond that...

the IRS rules for “writing off” a vehicle such as this are complete with various requirements to prove up how much the vehicle is used for the purposes business to write it all off, you must prove up that it’s ~100% used for business purposes only, titled to the name/ownership of the business...

as of first of the month, VINs in the 21XXs were on the line but without ability to check activated VINs, hard to say how many gaps exist prior to 21XX can only bet that several hundred gaps exist for Beast series VINs

It’s almost like the IRS has thought of this stuff …

fair enough in the months before you joined, there were others with similar incredulity they similarly insisted “Tesla would never release a ~320mi truck,” or “Tesla would never produce the three motor in low volumes,” or before that, “there’ll be a built in air compressor,” or “there’s a 6th...

they wouldn’t be before, because inside media was under embargo Meanwhile and regardless, I know the prior plan of 1,000 to be true - in the same ways and to the same degree of confidence I *predicted* other things around here prior to Nov 30 if you require some independent proof, go look at...
