When I went to pick up my car in Seattle last week they mandated use of the 3rd party application called 'plaid' - this isn't the tesla car, this is a financial service app that has partnered with many banks across the country. The Plaid app is embedded into the tesla app and is used in the...

Just to close out my part of this thread I did get my car today! A few small things they need to fix but the car seems great based on the 17 miles i drove so far! One word of warning - if you happen to have ordered before the refresh announce they offered a 2k discount on the 10k price...

TSLA Pilot - thanks for your help. If you can bring in the troops that would be fantastic! I can answer yes to all 5 of your statements above! I would have gladly taken delivery at any point during the process - like all of us on here who are excited about the refreshed models!

Hi, I just picked up my new S! My order was originally pre-refresh that I converted to the new model almost immediately after the announcement last February. The price went up $10K but they said they would give us a $2000 discount on the new model (ie now it's 8k) more expensive. Well...

Hey @dkc21 and @golonoro - looks like we're all having a fun day with pickups in Renton - I am also picking up today! Hooray! Our cars must have been on the same boat up from Cali! Good luck!

RN1143 update - White/Black/19" No FSD aka 'the basic'. Last night my EDD moved to Feb 6 - Feb 12th (from March 15 - April 15) and I finally got my first VIN (NF470 vintage). As I've documented a few times, my original order was made on Jan 1,2020 and then I transitioned to the refresh very soon...

My 1143 still not delivered.

I'm also RN1143 from Seattle - white/black interior/19"/No FSD - with an update. Never a configuration change (TM). I was encouraged by a few people on here (thanks everyone!) to contact Tesla and find out why my early order still has no car. The local team checked with the factory team and...

I got it for 8k on my 2020 model 3. It's a fun trick to show people every few months but I don't use it. I will not be getting it in my new Model S that so far they haven't sold to me yet - despite a one year wait. I wish I had my 8k back from 2020 as well. Of course other people are happy...

I have talked to my SA every month or so since September. He has generally been more optimistic about my estimated delivery date than what the system showed. This is only ironic since the system has also been too optimistic as I am still waiting for the car. Last week I asked about an...

As a former business development manager I'm almost sure that it is all margin related. If they ever deliver this car it's at $77K. I think Tesla has always prioritized the highest margin cars - all the way back to my first 2013 P that jumped the line like the current Plaid purchasers (somehow...

Happy new year! I hope we all get cars in 2022!

I'd like to wish my RN an official happy first birthday! I ordered a Model S LR on 1/1/2021. RN1143. White/black seats/ 19" wheels. Seattle. Never a config change. Never a rejected order. Current EDD via website is March 18 - April 15. Maybe 2022 is my year??

I think they want us all to follow your path fsabek! I think the whole thing is unethical from a Tesla standpoint. We have all done what we were supposed to do. They put the car up for purchase at these prices. It's not like we forced them or somehow hacked into their order system. That...

My config is white exterior / black interior / 19" wheels. No FSD. Hasn't changed the entire time so I should not have ever been sent back to the end of the line. Thanks for the good thoughts everyone!

RN1143 movement today. From Jan 7 - feb 4 to March 18 - April 15th. So I am either getting it soonish via the ‘date range VIN boomerang’ or neverish as it moves further into 2022. sorry for repeat post if you follow the oldest RN without car thread.

RN1143 movement today. From Jan 7 - feb 4 to March 18 - April 15th. So I am either getting it soonish via the ‘date range VIN boomerang’ or neverish as it moves further into 2022. Smart money in Vegas being placed on further into 2022. I didn’t used to be so cynical.

RN1143 here again. Does anyone remember back after they announced the refresh that if we confirmed the new car we would: 1) have to pay $8k more than the car we had on order (ie a $2k consideration on the new price) and 2) get priority delivery on the new car Tesla has redefined priority...

My order date was 1/1/2020. Same RN as yours. LR/White/Black/19” wheels. I have about the same EDD as you now. Good luck!

No, I never changed the configuration. I’ve had a 2013 S and a 2020 3. One theory is that since I am trading my 3 in that this has confused their system. I have removed the trade until a vin gets assigned (if it ever does). Another theory is that as an original order, white paint, and 19”...

RN1143 is my number. Ordered Jan 1 then confirmed shortly after refresh announce. White/Black/19s. Current EDD Jan 7 - Feb 4th. Seattle. Many, many EDDs before. I'm pretty sure it's never going to be delivered.

It's a Blue 2020 Model 3 Long Range with FSD. Their trade in offer was $47,200 and i have like 33k miles on it. So with the tax benefit it's like getting $52k on open market. It has gone up $6K since Feb even though I've put tons of miles on it. I'd guess impacted by crazy used car values...

Still waiting for my RN1143 order from Jan 1, 2020. LR / White / Black interior / 19" / No FSD. My latest EDD is March 11 - April 8th, 2022! I have traded emails with SA a few times and just talked to someone on the phone regarding my continued delays. I am trading in my model 3 and they...

Well my new date has moved all the way until January 17th - Feb 14th! I originally ordered the pre-refresh Model S on Jan 1, 2021. I confirmed the new configuration shortly after refresh update. LR white/ black interior / 19" wheels. No FSD. I have seen estimated dates from Feb '21 all...

Hi, I made my Model S order January 1, 2021. I confirmed i wanted the updated S shortly after the announce. Originally I was in the 'Feb 21' delivery club with my white exterior / black interior / 19" wheel LR order. But now I seem to be in the December 21 club as that's the newest guess...

Order date of Jan 1,2021 in Seattle. RN11434. White/black/no FSD/19 inch. Lowest profit model for them to build I guess. Originally estimated delivery mid feb, then mid march, then June, then July. Then blank forever. Finally wrote my SA yesterday and asked for an update - the SA said...

I live in the Seattle area - I had a deep scratch with no body damage on my silver model 3 within the first week of ownership. I asked the service center for ideas on getting it fixed and they told me that they used ‘same day USA’ to fix paint when they have had issues. It’s a mobile shop...

Thanks for all the replies thus far! Examining the very useful spreadsheet(sweet!) it looks like my best options for the 19" stock wheel are: 1) the bridgestone QuietTrack 2)the Vredestein Quatrac 5 3)the Continental PureContact LS Anyone in the NW used any of these 19" all weather tires and...

HI, I just got a model 3 with the 19" wheels in March. There are many useful threads in the standard Model 3 area! That said, I'd love to have a thread dedicated to this OEM wheel and focused on the weather conditions in the pacific northwest. I'm very interested in recommendations and...

Hi, Tesla sent me an email pointing me to: Electric Vehicle & Solar Incentives. I'm not a tax guy (I mean I do pay them but I don't work in that field). Does this mean the Gen 3 Wall Connector would be eligible for a tax credit? Sorry if this has been covered before. Charging Customers who...

Here's some more info PNWLeccy: -I scheduled via the app. Not sure why it went to the SC vs mobile. I don't think I could choose one or the other. I did select Bellevue when given the choices of SC. No idea why they didn't cancel. -Before they started and during the fix I was in...

Hi, I bought a new LR AWD around March 19th and I'm also in the Seattle area. Everything seemed pretty good during the virus quick delivery. But the next morning I noticed a huge amount of wind noise coming from the passenger front window. Having read many threads on here I was prepared for...

Hi, I don't have any experience with these tires but I'm super interested as well. I've reviewed many of the tire threads but they tend to be too complicated for a neophyte like me to be able to decipher across all the different rims available. I also have the 19" stock rim. I live in...

Hi, In Washington it also looks like there are a bunch of blue long range all wheel drives in inventory cars as well. A couple had miles on them which creates a discount based on how many miles they've been driven. Is it possible these are cars that haven't arrived yet but are just discounted...

I decided to reserve one! My 2013 Model S has almost no tech. I wonder if they will enable carplay??

I put my order (deposit and finalized on same day) in on 2/23/2013 and picked it up on 3/24/2013 in Seattle. Color is Silver. I'm pretty sure it depends on whether you ask for everything that is available.

thanks for the ideas!

7 days into ownership my new Silver S needs some paint work - the paint was rubbed/ripped off a couple small places by some type of accident. I think someone grazed my back right fender area (by the wheel) and it is now ugly. Or I did it and have no idea how it happened. Anyone have a...
