But now what will be my excuse to get pizza rolls from Double Dave's?! lol :)

Reddit is filled with posts of the same issue with various iPhone versions, too. Like others have said, it's likely just the coil position of the phone relative to the pad. Tesla just didn't allow for any margin so if you happen to use a phone that's in the sweet spot, good for you. Otherwise...

Just generally useless, all seasons, haha. I just got mine last week, but I quickly learned it's not powerful enough. I drove for 3 hours with my Pixel 3 playing over bluetooth and discovered my phone was like at 20% from 90% after about an hour and half. My podcast app uses a fair amount of...

? I don't understand the question, but...No? Or yes, but new like all the other parts of the car? haha :p

11 months, 2 days from order to delivery. (Sept. 9 - Aug. 11) 13 delivery windows.

I guess I can finally return my signature to it's normal, non-character limit pushing version without all the EDDs. :P Also, for those trading in a Tesla, they are requiring returning the UMC. I don't know if this is old news or not (they didn't ask when I traded my S for my 3 in 2018), but I...

Old thread, I know, but just another data point. I just got offered $40,500 by Tesla for my 2018 RWD M3 LR (just over 30k miles). I too looked up KBB and it was giving a range of $48-52k for Very Good condition so I was preparing to get properly insulted. So I checked Carvana and it gave me...

A good example of why it takes time to read all this carefully (which I didn't do, haha). From https://www.reddit.com/r/electricvehicles/comments/wa8viu/summary_of_draft_ev_tax_credit_bill_with_code/: $3,750 of the new credit is based upon the vehicle having at least 40% of its battery...

The tax credit for personal vehicles is $3,750. The $7,500 is for commercial vehicles. (Page 394 of the bill).

It's not that they can't. It's that they DON'T WANT TO. In my memory (I got my first in 2014) , Tesla has never made any decisions with a customer service focus. Right now, they have more orders than they can handle for the foreseeable future and their focus is on stock price and profitability...

There is at least 1 Reddit thread (in r/electricvehicles) on this, likely others, but my advice is to not think about it until the law is passed and signed. Even in that thread, people claim it's retroactive and others say it's not. (My semi-professional quick read: It's not, goes into effect...

If it's still anything like the first 5 years I followed this...NOT AT ALL. There have been spots on that map that have been there for literal YEARS. Just as accurate as estimated delivery dates, lol.

2018 Model 3 LR, no bells, no whistles...no farting horn, haha. KBB says something like $50,000, which would be awesome considering I paid less than that for it when you factor in the tax credit. I just REALL don't want to mess with 3rd party sales and in Texas, a trade reduces your sales tax.

Got a text with a VIN this afternoon! Is the end in sight?!?!? Delivery window Aug. 7-11 (of course, the very end of my current window, lol). How have Tesla's trade offers been lately for Teslas?

I did finally find an article with those details. (Well, some confirmed and some simply assumed, like the 2170 batteries because Elon doesn't think he needs PR people to answer questions from press.) That's promising news, even if not for me with a 7-seater, haha. Maybe they turn it up in...

My understanding of the articles I've seen is that Austin-builds are exclusively the shorter/standard range that's only recently become available for purchase. Therefore, no one will receive one of those unless they JUST ordered now AND order the SR version. I assume right now these are all...

I noticed yesterday that mine has changed again, like the 3rd time in the last 2-4 weeks or so. You can see the ranges in my signature below, but this last one went from a 4-week to a 2-week by narrowing one week on each side. Now July 21 - Aug. 4.

Nope. Although not sure why I would accept a shorter-range car for the same price. This is my 3rd time around and I've been on this forum for going on 8 years now, so I don't believe any deadline Tesla gives. I have a car and there's no rush. I just keep forgetting I ordered it, lol.

Oh yay (again)...2 week pushed back almost a month and extended back to 4 week. July 18 - Aug. 22.

I've made the drive from San Antonio to Lubbock many times, although I never paid any attention to the nav. (If you think Coopers is any good, oh man, we need to get you to some better BBQ places! But that's a different topic, haha...). What I noticed that really impacted range (and maybe...

Ugghhhh...I don't want to mess with that, haha. I feel like they did okay on my S when I got my 3 so fingers crossed. But yeah, if it's a $12k difference I'm sure that more than makes up for the savings on sales tax when doing a trade.

What was their offer? I have a 2018 M3LR/30k miles that I'll be trading in. Just looked at KBB the other day and it was something crazy like $50k (compared to something like $35k when I checked back in September when I ordered).

Just noticed, pushed back 4 days...why even bother making a change that small, haha.

Noticed today, pushed back 4 days...

FWIW, my Sept. order EDD just got narrowed from June to the last two weeks in June. (EDIT: LOL, so many EDD changes has made my signature too many characters! 😂)

Sometime last week (this is my 3rd time at this rodeo and long ago learned not to believe ANY timeline Tesla provides, haha; I literally forget I even ordered it), my June 4-week window changed to a 2-week window (end of June)...for whatever that's worth. (EDIT: LOL, so many EDD changes has...

Same here. Didn't even make it to the last window before it got pushed. That would be going on 10 months for me...

Oh yay...Didn't even need to get to my latest window before I was bumped back again to Jun 3 - Jul 1.

I'm surprised how close some folks windows seem to be to mine (May 13-27), despite order dates 1+ months later. I ordered early September and have gotten several pushbacks after entering the window like others. The anonymous SA who answers the text/emails has repeatedly assured me my profile is...

Despite the logic and speculation prior to opening, my understanding is that the Austin factory will be making a lower-range version of the Y so no one will be getting cars made there unless they work there (like with the M3, Elon seems to like beta-testing new models by selling them to...

Not sure exactly when it happened b/c it's been a few weeks since I checked, but some time after I entered my delivery window I was also pushed back a full month. :( Coincidentally, a month is also how long it's been since I texted my SA a question and have yet to hear back. I'm in Texas so I'm...

I wish someone had posted this 10 pages back to summarize what I spent the last half-hour reading. Would have saved me a bunch of time, lol. I've long been at the "If you don't have expectations, you can't be disappointed" stage for a long time. I frequently forget I even ordered it. 6.5 months...

Oh yay...pushed back MORE THAN A MONTH now, just a few weeks after being pushed back from February. 9/7 order date, now EDD April 20 - May 18. Judging by join dates I see, I'm a lot more OG than most. I've been on here since 2013 and waited a year (normal) for my Model S back in 2014. Oh, those...

Ugh, sigh...Sept. 7 order date. When EDD was Feb. 15-Mar. 15, on Feb. 15 it changed to Feb. 28-Mar. 15. Then when Feb. 28 came around, it moved to Mar. 14-Mar. 28. I hope that pattern doesn't continue when Mar. 14 rolls around...

Hilarious! When I was the first and only Tesla in Lubbock I lived literally 3 minutes from this. If I had only stuck it out (counts on fingers) 8+ more years! :P But now I live in civilization and have a M3LR so I pretty much never need a Supercharger at all. While the San Antonio service...

Interesting to see these early-September orders that have 2021 delivery estimates, let alone already getting VINs. My EDD has never been earlier than February, and I think moved back to (essentially) March.

I don't know if my butt-memory is that long, haha. If I recall, a lot of the early adopters coming from the plush luxury cars complained about the early S seats. I think they updated them shortly after I got mine. They didn't have near the bolstering on the thigh and torso they do now, which can...

Having traded in my 2014 (rare non-tech package! haha) S for a Long-Range 3 in 2018, I will just say be sure you are okay with a small car with a rough, I'm sorry, "sporty" ride compared to the S. I actually tell everyone to not bother with the 3 and get the Y because it does everything the 3...

All of them. Every time. It's a dumb design. At least in newer ones there's a better icon on the button, but on my 2018 3, it's just a dash line that's like 1 millimeter longer than the window button. One of many design choices they make that I wish they wouldn't. I have a great car, but a...

Came to say this exactly. Every time I read or see something about the Y, I can't help but think, "What's the point of the 3?" A Y is not in the same market for someone wanting an X, like a Honda Fit isn't really an alternative for someone looking for a Pilot. I decided to bite the bullet and...

I've had my M3 in multiple times now for this same issue, twice towed in. Something about a particular circuit relay that is used by all those systems. (My errors would always start with Auto Emergency Braking disabled, then cascade to include no cruise, no traction control, parking brake error...

I read all four pages just to find this comment, and I'm disappointed it took this long to be made. :)

Yeah, time will tell. I don't think I noticed before, but the dimensions really are nice because it takes up pretty much all the space on its half of the ledge so the shelf liner looks more or less flat, smooth. That said, I don't know that the charger needs to be as thin as this one is, which...

Here's how mine ended up. I don't think it looks too bad for $25 if I do say so myself. (Well, it will actually be closer to $40 b/c I'm going to buy a second charger for the other side.) I ended up going with a different charger. Long, but still very thin, as opposed to a thin hockey puck...

I bought this shelf liner today and I think it wold work just fine. It's thin, but I've read you don't want it too thick b/c the farther from the pad the slower the charging (and it's already like half the speed of plugging in directly). I liked it because it was solid, not open mesh like other...

Times sure have changed quickly in the two years since I stopped being the only Tesla in Lubbock! I bet there's probably near a dozen of S, X, and 3s in town now. You guys don't have to deal with everyone knowing whenever you go out because they saw your car parked somewhere, haha.

Interesting. My Obsidian Black 3 delivery just got pushed back a week because it arrived at the SC with some kind of paint discoloration issue so it is now being repainted locally somewhere.
