    Just remember that if you ordered a SR+, you likely don't need anything over 30amp, as the SR+ is limited at that. Check the * at the bottom there. When I was looking at options, my panel could only support an additional 30 amp plug without having to spend thousands on a new panel and wiring.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Hey Folks, Final update - out of purgatory!! Tesla dropped off the car today, and as usual it wasn't without drama. Below are my thoughts, and experiences. - Ordered 6/1, Bay Area CA with a Fremont Factory pickup. 8-12 weeks initial wait, using a referral code. - Few days after ordering, SA...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Generally when you get the TV prompt you get a VIN! Looks like those dates are going to be more accurate. I got the TV prompt on 8/3, then on 8/5 they scheduled delivery for 8/7. I literally just got off the phone with them when they called me, and I asked if I can pick up the car today, and...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    As a friendly reminder folks, EDD means nothing... Most SA's just see what we see on the website and make us feel better about it, but then the EDD can jump around all over the place. Just keep in mind your initial estimate, and plan around that. Related, imagine being a new MS owner in...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I called my local Delivery Center, and they said the car is there awaiting final inspection. No-go on doing a Fremont pickup, since it's already a few miles further at the Delivery Center, and no luck getting to pick up before Saturday.

    they did the same for me. Lots of folks do home delivery, I think it should be fine. At this point I feel like if I make changes theyll be like 'nah back of the line! no soup for you!'

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Got VIN 8/3, and today I got a delivery appointment 8/7 & the prompt to pay. The appointment can in via a text, and the website updated. No emails. I selected Fremont Factory pickup, but they automatically changed it to Home Delivery. The SA's are not responsive about how to change it, so I'll...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I'll be following your posts. I got a VIN yesterday and the EDD pushed back again today. It seems some folks get EDD + Delivery Appointment at the same time, while others get a VIN and then play the EDD game a bit longer.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I called my local center and they said "It could either be Fremont direct pickup, pickup from our location, or delivered to your house". Somebody from the delivery team will call to confirm.. So we'll see when that happens, but yea they love to give non-answers.

    Exactly how I feel. Tesla gives a VIN... Tesla takes away VIN.... hahaha
