Drove by today and it looks like it's about to open. It looks like everything is installed and it's just waiting for inspection or final approval.

Hello! I stumbled upon the construction site for a new supercharger here in Palmdale! This is not the V3 charger in the mall parking lot. This is an all new charger in the parking lot of Bevmo off of Rancho Vista and 10th west. I did a quick drive by and I counted about 24 total chargers...

I did change the speed based lane changes from Mad Max to average last night and it did help quite a bit actually! Not perfect, but better for sure! I'm using it on roads that are not numbered highways but are highways for all intents and purposes. They are four lanes without lights or stops...

Well maybe all the socal folks can just take pride in the fact we are probably submitting a lot of good training data back to Tesla! And you're exactly right! Driving in the cities really does make you a more observant driver. That is one great thing about the car is that it's always watching...

Great description! Socal really requires a weird aggressive defense driving style. You're going to get run off the road if you follow normal defensive driving rules. I'm betting that's a lot of the issue with the car too. Socal traffic is a corner case compared to so many other areas that it's...

Yep! I figured this out after the first lane change didn't work. It's not only that your hand has been recently on it, but it requires a new torque on the wheel before it'll lane change. Not ideal, but I do understand why they do it that way.

We're on 2019.40.50.7. We installed 2019.40.50.5 the day we got the car so I haven't really had any personal experience with older versions to see any upgrades. I run NoA on Mad Max without lane change confirmation, and I would hope it would give me lane changes that are fast enough, but so...

We got our model 3 about a month ago and navigate on autopilot was the number one feature I was excited about in the car! We have done about 1800 miles in the last month almost completely on the highway around southern California. Navigate on autopilot is a terrible driver. The auto lane...

Yea I had to pay it already today, but I was really trying to figure out if this is a common issue with Tesla or if it's just a one off thing. Trying to figure out how long it usually takes before Tesla pays off those cars for people. I get it that it's the end of the year rush but I've had...

Has anybody had any issues with Tesla not paying off your trade in? Im due to make a payment on Jan 1 for my old car, but I obviously shouldn't have to pay that since it's not my car now. If I can't get Tesla to pay that then it's going to be a nightmare getting that refund from Tesla.

There is a project near the AV mall that sounds like it might be a good spot for the supercharger. They are building a Sprouts as well as some apartments, townhouses, and new restaurants! I'm betting this is where it's going to be. Sprouts center gets Council approval

Well folks it's time for me to graduate this thread! Ordered 11/11 SR+ Delivered 12/27 in Burbank! The delivery process was a bit rushed but nothing we weren't expecting. There were about 20 people at the center at the same time who all got their cars at the same time. I had a trade in, so they...

Yea I got my vin on Sat night (12/21) and my car was actually on the lot as of Christmas day. Pickup tomorrow at Burbank @ 02:00 PM!

I was worried I wouldn't get my car tomorrow in Burbank, but I just talked to them and they already have the car on the lot. Glad I made it before the grapevine got shutdown.

Will you get a MVPA with Tesla financing? Just trying to make sure I don't need to see that.

Yep I forgot to put that in the post! I got my VIN in source 12/21.

Just got my delivery text! It looks like it was a bit different than other folks. Mine said that the car is already in transit rather than getting a production date. "Your Model 3 is in transit and ready to be scheduled! Select an available delivery appointment time now at...

Well good news! I got my text this morning! Ordered 11/11 SR+, Blue / White, Aero, FSD. Text 12/24, delivery 12/27 @ Burbank!

Wut... This is my exact config and I ordered 2 weeks before you in Burbank... No word on delivery or production... o_O:mad:o_O

This is driving me bananas... I ordered 11 Nov and got my VIN in source on Dec 21, yet I still haven't heard a word from Tesla about scheduling a delivery. If I don't get my car in time I am going to freak the hell out and do everything I can to get them to take at least $1875 off the price.

Next week as in 30-31 Dec!?! There are tons of Nov and Dec orders that already got their cars and you're getting pushed to the last days of the year!?!

I'll have to give them a call tomorrow to see what's going on! Hoping that it's in production now and will be here this week!

Has anybody got a VIN in source but hasn't got the text to schedule delivery? I got my VIN last night, but I haven't got any text.

I am seeing quite a few people with white seats getting VINs today in the source! Myself included!

Wow that's like 3-4 people I have seen on here with white interiors getting VINs for Burbank today!

Holy smokes!! Got my VIN in source today!!! SR+, Ordered 11/11, Blue / White, Aero, FSD, Burbank! I'm SO EXCITED!!!

Nice! White interiors are finally coming out!

Really?? That doesn't make any sense. There is still a ton of time left to deliver cars. They are planning on doing most of the cars 22-31 Dec. What store was this at? What config?

I'm glad they don't have any SR+ on there right now or I would be mad! Looks like I picked the absolute last config to be built this year... SR+, Blue / White, Aero, FSD

Yikes that's kinda crazy. You ordered in October so they still have a full month+ of cars after yours. And delivery on the 29th is really late!

From what I can tell white seats are the major hold up now. Looking on the tracking sheet there are only a few people in California that have received white seats recently. I'm hoping that changes soon!

That's absolutely bananas. Each passing day I am less and less impressed with the customer service of Tesla. You're dropping a ton of money on a car and the least they should be able to do is tell you when you can pick it up. I'd make a big stink about this for sure so they know how much their...

On twitter Mr. Musk has given us a bit of a preview for upcoming software! Elon Musk on Twitter "Tesla holiday software update has FSD sneak preview, Stardew Valley, Lost Backgammon & a few other things" Not sure what FSD sneak preview means, but Stardew Valley is a big game to have in the car!

Not a huge deal to plug and unplug the UNC. Sure it'll wear out eventually, but as soon as you get any wear just replace the outlet. Nema 14-50 outlets are less than $10 and can be replaced in about 5 min with a single screwdriver.

I have never had a VIN in my source, but it still has the lines where it's supposed to be. I just have "Vin":null

It's looking like they are doing a huge batch of black seats. I haven't seen any white seats getting a VIN in the last week or so.

Exactly what my wife said too. They are trying to grab up people who were late to order their cars. Trying to squeeze those last few sales in at the end of the year. It's freaking stupid but I am not surprised.

My order for my SR + Blue / White Aero FSD is $49,790.00. Right now I see about a dozen LR AWD in Socal for $49,990. (Although I did just notice thanks to Atreyu that they don't include FSD)

Also, do these inventory cars come with less of a warranty? It's showing 4 years / 50,000 miles on all of the invetory cars vs 8 years / 100,000 miles for ordered cars.

Yea Holy smokes! There are 48 long range AWD 3's within 200 miles of my house. I am thinking they are trying to get people to upgrade to take an inventory model. They actually have amazing prices on them too. I could upgrade to a LR AWD from my SR+ for only $200 if I wanted the black interior...

Found these today on Reddit. It looks like Tesla has a staging area setup in North Hollywood / LA. It looks like they are trying to build up a lot of cars so that they can deliver the cars very quickly. Source: North Hollywood, CA / Usually an empty lot : TeslaModel3

Reddit user u/DaWorldIsSoSensitive found this staging location today in North Hollywood / LA. North Hollywood, CA / Usually an empty lot : TeslaModel3 It's looking like this is the storage location for several of the local service centers. It's a bit of an interesting location since it's...

Got the email today! Here's a screenshot for those who haven't seen it. Looks like deliveries are happening Christmas day!

How'd you track this info? Sounds like it would be interesting to track this long term.

Congrats! I've seen this same thing on a few more threads! It actually goes backwards, but this happens right before or right after getting a VIN for a lot of people.

In my lust for a VIN, I was refreshing my page shortly after midnight, and a new and never before seen window appeared as soon as the site loaded. My heart rate instantly skyrocketed and butterflies filled my stomach. The window said, "Please select your region" to which I immediately...

Inventory models are considered "new" since they have never actually been titled. Even if they have a few thousand miles they are still legally considered new.

(whispers to self) It's ok be cool. It's fine that they are getting their car so quickly. It's fine...

I went with the Taptes mats, but I am still waiting for my 2020 to get delivered. Any source for the seat rail info? I hadn't heard that before! Also the 2020's still have a dead pedal shape, but it is just carpet rather than a metal piece so floor mats shouldn't need any changes for that.

I'm thinking that you got matched to a return in Nashville somehow. It would be totally unacceptable for them to charge you more than the standard destination fee to get a brand new car. I'm just hoping it doesn't reset your spot in the queue!
