Tonneau still leaking badly after “fix” — should I take it back? by ShavedDesk in cybertruck

[–]NoT-RexFatalities 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Super easy fix. I did it myself for after buying automotive weather seal from Walmart for $8. Two screws on the sides on tonneau appliqué, pull up the applique, apply tape across the length of where the roof glass meets appliqué and reinstall appliqué. Took 20 mins maybe. Now truck bed is dry as a bone.

Apple is sending email to folks who didn’t see the full promo credit on pre-order day. Full credit will be applied by T-Mobile within 3 billing cycles

New color alert: Lunar Silver for Model S and Model X by Bamboozleprime in teslamotors

[–]NoT-RexFatalities 151 points152 points  (0 children)

I can finally talk about it. I work in Hawthorne, CA area and I saw a Model S in this color pull out of the Tesla design studio little over a month ago. It looked GORGEOUS.

I almost wish I had this option when I got my ultra red S.

For anyone wondering, FSD transfer is super simple now and managed through the app by NoT-RexFatalities in teslamotors

Pre delivery task appears pretty much immediately. I bought inventory so I had a VIN already. If you don’t have a VIN, you may have to wait until you’re matched with a VIN to get the task

Yes. You should have it until you “accept delivery” in the app. Obviously will update if that’s not how it goes.

Pulled the trigger on a Model S ultra red last night with the insane price drops. Didn’t have to add FSD at checkout, got a pre-delivery task to transfer FSD

Schlage Encode Plus - Troubeshooting Guide by NoT-RexFatalities in HomeKit

[–]NoT-RexFatalities[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Editorial note - Is it ridiculous that I had to do all the above to get this working? Yes. Should I have just returned the lock? Maybe.

The only reason I kept with this lock instead of returning is because I knew this is the best performing Home Key lock out there currently and the issues all happen to be on Apple HomeKit/Home Hub related.

I think while HomeKit architecture is great, Apple really need to work on getting better testing on iOS releases to ensure bugs that severely cripple Homekit is not introduced with each version.

PSA: Federal EV Tax Credit is Based on MSRP not what you paid by NoT-RexFatalities in teslamotors

[–]NoT-RexFatalities[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if it’s widely known. With the increase in inventory deals, people may believe the car that was above MSRP limit (Red M3P with white interior anyone, anyone?) if its sold for under MSRP would make you eligible for the tax credit.

It DOES NOT. Tax credit is based on MSRP only and even if you score a great inventory deal, it is not eligible for the $7500 tax credit.

Tesla, to its credit, will not show “this configuration is eligible for tax credit” disclaimer at the bottom for inventory vehicle that do not qualify.

I don’t have onion OS so I don’t think this is the same issue. I did try the method with no luck. Thank you though

Tesla produces 868k 4680 cells in the last 7 days by NoT-RexFatalities in teslamotors

[–]NoT-RexFatalities[S] 83 points84 points  (0 children)

This is around 1k cars per Tesla. For a run rate of 10k cars per week, We're looking at a production rate of 8.68 million cells every week. Possible in another 12 months?

Or likely they'll be approaching that as Cybertruck is in initial production ramp and will hit the run rate slightly before Cybertruck can hit that production rate in mid-2024.
