💯 Agreed!!

@@moparmagic400 still every single day! It doesn’t really irritate me personally, but to each’s own. Very rarely tho it snags a fine hair on my neck. Maybe folks that have more hair on their neck, I can see that possibly being a problem from it snagging more often maybe? Idk. But personally if I was in your shoes, I’m waiting for the diamond cut restock! DC has more glimmer than plain which I prefer.

@@MrDaleVerde yeah I’m so torn on what to do! I’ve got some hair on the chest and neck so I don’t want to get one and then it be bothersome, but I also want the shine factor haha, not talkin big gorilla hair, just not baby smooth if that makes sense

@@moparmagic400 def makes sense. In that case if you’re concerned about snagging plain may be the way to go then, can’t go wrong either way imo!

@@MrDaleVerde appreciate the replies man, sadly I’m still unsure haha

@@shanegarcia5963 I 100% agree that it’s easily the most versatile chain at this size!! Literally wear mine EVERYWHERE for ANY occasion!

@@keeferdog5617 thanks! 3 yrs later I still have it & still wear it every single day paired with a 2.5mm 18 inch DC rope chain. Both are still holding up strong!

@@MrDaleVerdeNice man- thinking of popping for the same chain. I’m sure price has gone up in the last 3 years! Wear it in good health!

@@keeferdog5617 much appreciated! Can’t go wrong with it if you ask me!

I’m 6’2” 200

I def think pairing this with a slightly smaller rope would be a fire stack. Stacking two round link styles together is hard to mess up!

@@MrDaleVerde thanks brother. I was thinking the same thing

If you have a similar build to me & are planning to wear it all day every day, I’d def say 22” is the way to go!

And thanks for watching!

Much appreciated! 2 1/2 yrs later I’m still loving my Franco, still glad I made the decision on these specs as I still feel comfy wearing it all day every day, coupled with an 18” 14k 2.5mm rope chain. I really think I wanna add a matching pendant to both, but no rush on that as I like the paired look without one. Are you thinking of replacing your current 2mm Franco with the 3mm or possibly the 3.5mm? If so, you can never go wrong to upsize imo. Also, I feel like if you’re torn between two sizes go with the bigger one! Less chance of regrets that way. Although I fully understand that price starts adding up quickly! If 18k is your thing, I’d say stick with it. 14k for me personally is a sweet spot & I never wanna drop down lower than that when shopping around for jewelry, so if 18k is your standard then that’s what it is if you ask me

I am going to keep the 2mm Franco to pair with my pendant (custom Bobby White diamond lion pendant) and add the 3mm Franco which will be worn as a standalone chain. The 20” 3mm Franco in 18k white gold is about 30-31g and a nice weight for an everyday chain. I never take my chains off. Sleep, shower, workout, etc. with them on. 18kt is my thing, so gonna stick with it.

Not bad at all!

Nice! I’m pretty confident you’ll love it 💪🏾

Thank you!!

It’s still holding just as strong as when I first got it. I don’t see this chain breaking or becoming less durable anytime soon, as the franco link is one of the strongest. If anything, the lobster clasp may wear over time or the links that connect the clasp to the franco.

Wearing it daily was my thought exactly, and I do just that, now paired with an 18” 2.5mm rope chain. The size is slightly bigger than 3.5mm, which is completely fine with me bc I’d rather get more than what I paid for than less.

I love the extra shine of the DC. The extra shine is subtle tho, so I don’t think you’d be overdoing it with a DC chain in a longer size to couple it with a smaller one. Still can’t lose by matching with a longer plain tho. It all comes down to personal preference!

@@MrDaleVerde got it bro. How about the thickness? We have the same height although I'm more muscular than you. Do you think I should get 3.5 or 4mm? My neck size is 16

@@M0stBlunt3d for an everyday any situation chain, 3.5 is perfect (for ME of course). However I do think the 4 would’ve been just fine too and possibly would’ve given just a little more, given it’s a tad bit bigger. If you’re a bigger frame than me, I’d say go for the 4. I don’t think you’d have any regrets going a lil bigger.

Much appreciated! It’s diamond cut. 💎

Not a bad choice, that 5mm def gets more attention!!

Appreciate it!! I haven’t paired it up with a pendant. I have gotten an 18” 2.5 mm rope tho & really like the double chain look. I do often play around with the thought of getting matching pendants for both tho. Maybe sometime down the line

Much appreciated! The small to bigger look is def a win. I also now have an 18 inch 2.5 mm rope chain & it’s a super clean look for any situation imo

@@MrDaleVerde Franco came today in 2days. It's cleans

Hang in there, the wait is absolutely worth it!

@@MrDaleVerde thank you 🙏 for your support ..hopefully get a 2023 model 😁 enjoy your new ride and congrats

@@montybhuller1377 the way Tesla does things there’s no guarantee, BUT I would say if your delivery is after Thanksgiving you have a high chance! I got mine the day after Thanksgiving last year 2021 and ended up with a 2022 VIN, so good luck to you! 🤞🏾

@@MrDaleVerde ok thanks for the advice. If you don’t mind can I ask you something how’s your drive on the Tesla so far range Etc

@@montybhuller1377 the drive is great. Not the smoothest car as far as bumps & such, but still pretty smooth. Acceleration is top notch, you’ll have the ability to beat almost any car off the line, which is a very underrated capability! Range is solid but will go down a little as time passes. I’m almost a year in and I think I’m getting about 310 miles at 100% charge, compared to about 325 when I first got it.

Much appreciated! It’s DC

Thank you!!

I’m sorry man!! 😂 Wait times have definitely extended drastically… hopefully not too much longer for you tho!

😂🤣

I think the full total was just under $2900

Thanks! I agree, definitely the best car I’ve ever owned!

Kids will definitely be kids! Lol I’m glad I was able to provide you with some pertinent insight!

No problem at all, glad i could help. If you’re anything like me, you’ll definitely appreciate that size for everyday wear!

PPF would be a great choice, if you can justify the cost vs how much you care about dings & ease of washing. I thought strongly about getting at least a full frontal, but I can’t justify the cost in my area. I did get a ceramic coat tho, which I also recommend to make cleaning more of a breeze

My thought process exactly, I’ll keep looking around for affordable installers. Definitely going to do a ceramic coat though!

Where’d you get your ceramic coat done?

@@iangaines3090 I got it done by a good friend of mine in my area who does em professionally

That’s what’s up! I’m in the dmv area, what’s the name of their shop? I’d love to support

Karma for stepping on the seats! 😂 Appreciate you!

Much appreciated! You won’t at all be disappointed once yours comes in next week!

Thank you! And I definitely appreciate the feedback about the audio, gonna tweak that to make it better, and planning on investing in a good mic as well in the near future!

It does snag my neck hairs, but rarely. It even more rarely snags my shirt. The weight of the chain helps it to consistently hang down for the most part

Check out my review titled “Tesla Shields 7-Seater Trunk & Frunk Mats Review… Go or No?” I installed & reviewed the third row mat there!

Much appreciated!!

Lol no matter what you need vacuumed that Shark gets it done!

I got the same vacuum and actually just used it today.

Happy wife, happy life, right?! 😅😂 much appreciated man!

Loving it so far. Hands down best car I’ve ever owned. And we absolutely do have an excellent service center! Surprised whenever I hear negative reviews on other SC’s bc ours def spoils us lol

Glad I could help!

Much appreciated 💪🏾

@@MrDaleVerde what's do you like and dislike about it

@@roxythorphotography sounds like a great question for a video… 🤔 stay tuned!

Thank you brother! And you do the same once you take delivery! 💪🏾

I don’t have any solid recommendations at the moment, because honestly it seems like not a lot of companies are making trunk mats for the 7-seater version. I guess that’s bc it may be trickier than it seems to make something that’s fully functional for the 7-seater design, based on how the seats fold and how that deep storage cover flips. FWIW tho, I still have the mats and they aren’t terrible as is, even tho everything I stated in the review still stands.

Thanks! There’s no better feeling than waiting for so long then finally getting that notification that your car is ready! I have a background in electrical engineering, so actually felt comfortable installing the wall connector myself. I already had a 220V outlet in my garage with the proper wiring size needed, so I was able to just remove the outlet box and connect my WC in its place (also switched out the then 40A circuit breaker with a larger 60A one). From what I’ve heard tho, quotes can range depending on your location as well as how far away your WC would be from your breaker box. Setting up close to the box “could” be around $4-500, while having it setup farther away could get up to the thousands.

@@MrDaleVerde that makes sense. Thanks for the info and great video again!

Keep the 2mm & stack it if you can!

@@MrDaleVerde stacked it with a 5.5 flat curb but want a bigger Franco
