My better half was driving his 2018 Model 3 LR RWD this morning and he noticed it too. 2022.16.2. I hope they fix it. Will have to try it on my car later on today (but he has Spotify, I don't). Wonder if that makes a difference...

To clarify, I was looking for clean solutions that expand on port charging options for the rear passengers so it's not a bunch of wires or loose dongles. You know how there's clean implementations of a USB hub inside the center console on the front that allows for USB A and C? I'm looking for...

I swear I searched the threads before I'm asking this question: Am I the only one that feels the need to find some sort of clean hub solution that'll convert the 2 ports I have in the rear to more than just USB-C? My Google skills must be lacking because, try as I might, I can't find a single...

Congratulations. And really just goes to show you that you order a Tesla when you're happy with what you are currently seeing being produced. You can't play the anticipation game with them on something in the future because there'll always be something better coming around the corner (and a...

Got VIN'd on a Thursday, Applied on the Friday. Called to follow-up and got approved over the phone that Saturday. Got the check overnighted the Tuesday (Monday was MLK day), cashier's check arrived Wednesday. Picked up the car on the following Friday.

I would suggest holding on switching to finance until you get your VIN. They're able to do it over the phone with you. I've been told it'll come within a week, and I was VIN'd 2+ weeks later.

There are rumors that tow + the new Li-Ion Aux battery aren't exactly playing nicely together. But one can never be too sure with Tesla...

Also still here. Just trying to keep my commentary down so the posts are mainly by those waiting for their car.

No deliveries happen at the Costa Mesa Sales location anymore (even on Google Maps it says it's closed). I think the Costa Mesa Service Center is still there a few buildings down. You can call the Costa Mesa Sales Location phone number and I'm pretty sure they can clear it up for you. I've...

Need to be a member *and* have full direct deposit going into your checking account with them to get it near anywhere that 1.25%.

As if by fate, I went back to the website and I was able to order it! Huzzah!. So, yes, PS5 is definitely harder.

I got the e-mail that Homelink was back in stock but was stuck in a meeting. I was able to get to my email 2 hours later only to find it already sold out. Good lord.

My store was originally Costa Mesa, but if you call the number for the Irvine DC (+19494042989), I bet there's an automated prompt to get to "New Car Delivery" that'll get you in touch with someone. https://g.page/tesla-irvine-barranca?share

Short from having your car go in for service for other reasons, I don't think you can force it. Though I may try calling in to my DC and see if someone over there can push it to my car...

My VIN was 359 and yours is a bit higher up. Granted they're non-linear but I do feel some small comfort in that I'm not the only one that also got single pane rear glass. I'd have been a bit miffed if I found out my car just missed the cut-off on double-pane rear.

That was going to be my question too. This is the 2nd time I've heard someone reference the double pane rear windows. Can someone take a picture of it to confirm? Mine were single pane rears. Not a deal-breaker but that'd be amazing if they slipped that in too.

Yup. Did that last week. Know how long it takes them to restock homelink?

I'm still waiting for Homelink to be back in stock to buy on their website. Did you buy it by other avenues?

Basic autopilot = dynamic cruise control. It won't change lanes for you but it'll slow down/speed-up while keeping you in your current lane with the flow of traffic. If you don't foresee yourself changing lanes much and desiring your car take on the stress/hassle of the lane switch while on...

Agonizing over this daily! LOL. She already pulls fast and pretty hard.

I know it's probably of little consolation, but many of us August waiters made a vow to be here with the rest of the waiters to voice our solidarity and support even after we received our VINS. We're rooting for you!

Yeah, my better-half has the performance-oriented 19's on his Model 3 and they ride firm. Since my Model Y is going to replace my Highlander, I wanted as much rubber on my tires as possible to come closer to the Highlander's ride comfort (albeit not by much). My Rimetrix wheel covers are...

I ordered 7/25 and Profile Completed on 7/26, but my profile re-completed on 8/16 when I switched my order colors from white to blue. I feel ya. You'll get yours in Irvine soon I hope!

I didn’t get the nano. Just the regular Llumar ctx (vs nano irx). But I do agree the tint makes it look great. My rimetrix wheel covers arrive tomorrow for step 2 of 3. Last step will be plasti dip the badges.

It's because when it gets damaged, the selection of certified Tesla repair shops is few and far between...at least that's the story they'll tell you when they give you the quote.

For the really good rate? yes.

Hah! My Rimetrix aren’t arriving until Thursday. Dunno how you’ll feel about me basically mimicking you.

I’ve seen some YouTube vids on plasti dip’ing the emblems/badges. I plan on plasti dip/spraying my emblems black so it matches the rest of my blue/black car.

^this. Per the advice on this forum, my order was put in originally as cash and stayed that way until I got a VIN. As soon as you get your VIN, a text response or a quick call to your Delivery Center Service Advisor to switch it to Finance will reflect on your account within minutes and you...

Super easy pickup at Irvine. Checked in, signed paperwork, gave inspection of the car and drove off. Much of what I saw was adhesive residue and pollen debris from transport/being outside. When I brought it home and took a cloth to what I was seeing, the residue/blemishes came off and the car...

If you’re looking at this forum through your mobile, turn your phone landscape and you’ll see similar EDD roller coasters many of us have had outlined in our signatures.

He charges nightly. He won’t play around with the range like that if there’s accidents or traffic. This is Southern California after all…

Hubby drives 50miles to work so it’s 100mi/day for him here (OC to downtown LA). We’re an Edge case obviously.

I’m not trying to be argumentative. Really I’m not. Come noon tomorrow, we’ll be a 2 Tesla household sharing one high-powered wall charger. How does that math work really? Because we start charging at super off peak (10pm) and a ~50mi to 244 (~80%) would take 4.5 vs the 6 hrs. Granted I work...

I initially had a 14-50 installed. And when I got a powerwall installed, I had the Tesla technicians install a wall charger in lieu of the 14-50. Charging went from 32 mi/hr to 46-47/hr. Only you can decide what’s best for your situation but just know that the wall charger can deliver 50% more...

Thanks, this one looks good.

Damn that looks good! Almost makes me regret getting an LR. almost ;). Now I need to dig up that checklist and print it out for my noon appointment tomorrow!

You mean “putting your dryer in your garage” (if you stumble on an electrician that would like to price adjust on you on an EV vs dryer hookup). 😜

It’s deducted as part of the purchase of the car. Just went through the document review/signing process and the agreement was there. You can also check your MVPA and you’ll see it as a line item deduction.

I fee this. I was supposed to get my car today but I was delayed by a day because the transport was delayed. They asked if I wanted the same time on Sunday instead of the Saturday pickup I had scheduled. I asked them to move it as early as possible on Sunday. I just want my car!!! Lol

If my Sunday appt holds (I was called today and told car is in transit to Irvine) it’s 8 days from VIN to pickup.

Honestly, I saw something similar happen to me when my sales/delivery center closed and switched to the next city over (in November 2021, EDD went to "Early May"). If I were many of you, I would brace for the nationwide re-shuffle/re-queue as Austin Gigafactory begins to build 3/Y's.

Mine was confirmed AMd but my delivery got postponed by a day. I’ll find out Sunday.

Day before my delivery. I have a dream that there’s something wrong with the tire alignment they need to adjust and they need to postpone delivery date appt. But when it is time to deliver, I can take a hot lap around their racetrack with my car just to make sure I’m happy with everything I...

A span of a week is the cruelest of EDD’s. Gives you hope they’re confident on the delivery. Best of luck!

That happened early in my ordering/EDD process and I don't know if they were updating their system or what not, but they eventually got date ranges applied again.

Call the 800 number, extension 9150. That's their loan department.

I got emailed a scanned copy of the check and the loan officer said, "Usually the delivery center will accept that enough for you to get your car." Were you able to try that while you wait for the physical check?

Agreed, do the call back. At least while you're on hold with them you can press "1" at any time to initiate the call-back workflow. I have to give them props for that aspect of their automated system.

Has anyone else who has had pickup scheduled in Irvine seen your pickup date be postponed due to difficulty transporting your car? I want to properly align my expectations for this Saturday's pickup since I got off a call with someone and they noted my car was still in Lathrop and that they've...
