    How to compare home charging costs with supercharger costs

    In the Bay Area CA, and as a reference point: Supercharger - $0.35/kWh If you're not on the EV rate plan then: Summer peak: $0.42/kWh, off-peak: $0.36/kWh Winter peak: $0.32/kWh, off-peak: $0.30/kWh If you're on the EV rate plan: Summer peak (4pm-9pm): $0.50/kWh...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    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.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    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.
  13. geoldr

    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.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

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

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    haha! Yea it does :) Well cool, we seem to have a very similar timeline. My EDD was stuck in late September and then randomly got a VIN. I'll keep an eye out for the final payment email, and stop refreshing so often lol. Hopefully by this time next week I'll have the car. Good luck on Friday!

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    How long did it take you to go from VIN -> final payment and official date?
  17. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yea, I figured the car is still either being checked out and it might take a few days after receiving the VIN number to get some actual dates. Hopefully I have a choice to pick the date, the SA says you get a 3 day range to select from - but considering he's been wrong on everything else I won't...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I'll call them today and ask. I initially selected Fremont factory, but my SA is in Dublin. I don't see anything about where it might be on my account. Got the VIN yesterday, and today the dates have pushed back from 8/5-8 to 8/6-9, and the Agreements box still hasnt come up to submit final...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Hey all, back on the forums.. got a VIN! Ordered 6/1 SR+ White/White Aero wheels with no FSD. EDD has been September 11-September 28th for a long time, with multiple SA's saying the car is coming in September. 7/31: Sept 11-28 8/1: Aug 3-16 8/2: Aug 4-16 8/3: September 18-30 :( 8/3 noon...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Spoke with a couple of Tesla showrooms today. Looks like the September EDD for Bay Area folks is about accurate, if you ordered late May/early June. Since they don't work on a 'first come first serve' basis, and on a 'sell as many cars as possible', the SF bay area is literally the last...

    Ordered 6/1, white/white. Edd 6th day in a row of 9/11-9/30

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Any SF Bay Area folks hear any updates? I sent an email to the Dublin location in the AM but haven't gotten a response. Reached out to my SA for any updates and he again just says go to Tesla.com, lol. Ordered on 6/1, 5'th day in a row of having a Mid-Late September EDD.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Out of curiosity, with the new Tesla.com dashboard, what link is everyone getting? My dashboard links me to this: tesla.com/teslaaccount/profile?rn=RN*** But that just redirects back to dashboard. Sometimes it takes me to tesla.com/teslaaccount/product-finalize?rn=RN*** which loads my actual...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I'd wait 8 weeks, and then start getting antsy. Anything earlier you're setting up yourself for disappointment. If it comes early, they'll let you know!
  27. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Agreed. It's been very slow, and looks like a bunch of us got EDD's pushed back.
  28. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    How do you guys get different SA's to actually respond? Every time I call up another location they just try and redirect me to my SA. Maybe I should be more forceful, but I already feel bad - these folks are under lots of pressure I'm sure.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I've tried this before, and it goes to VM just like when i call the center direct. You probably got lucky!

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I ordered the 14-30 adapter, and although they provided me a tracking number it never worked. FedEx showed up one day and dropped it off. ~2 weeks after order.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    No changes today. Still 9/11-9/30
  32. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Like mentioned above, expect the mid range of your 7-13 weeks. Right now, late May early June folks are getting VIN's. So if you ordered 5 days ago, I'd expect late September or October. All of that can change, and depends on where you live, depends on folks who may cancel and you may get...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Moved backwards here as well. 9/11-9/30

    So good to see a Bay Area order get fulfilled before September. Gives me hope!

    HA! Yes! Buy 2, sell for 20k markup each, get one free!

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Same here, but white/white. Ordered 6/1 with a September EDD. We're likely just unlucky since we live so close to the factory, and Tesla doesn't operate on a first come first serve basis.

    3rd day in a row with a September EDD. ordered 6/1. Bummer

    The long con. Get a job at the factory to build your car since it’s faster than EDD, lmao

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    They called this out in the investor call. They were able to adapt quickly to supply chain issues by using different chips. Tesla's a software company just as much as they are a car company. They were able to pivot quickly and write firmware for different chips...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yes, my SA is from Dublin. He doesn’t know anything and just says “go to Tesla.com to see status” =\ whenever I call another location they tell me “oh your SA is this guy let me transfer you”
  41. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I’m 6/1 also factory. Current is month of September. I’ve read a few other Bay Area folks mention their SA’s say mid August, which makes sense since late May people are getting theirs now. Hopefully only a few more weeks!
  42. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I have a 6/1 order and picking up from the factory. My dates are 8/28-9/20 hopefully the 7-12 weeks is accurate. I just entered the actual window

    Even if you did, this is what that experience is like: Customer service is just not good.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Tesla’s don’t do Waypoints. Iirc Elon said fine they’ll do it at some point but who knows. I’d use an app like PlugShare to plan a more intricate route.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    These existing inventory prices are wild. 59k for a black SR+ with 883 miles on it. WOW! https://www.tesla.com/used/5YJ3E1EA4MF938600
  46. geoldr

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    This would fall in line with the initial 8-12 weeks estimates I would imagine. Wouldn't be surprised if the car delivers in October either. Don't worry so much about EDD since it changes daily and means nothing until you get a VIN! Keep an eye on the Order Tracking spreadsheet to see when...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Yep, same exact here. Pushed extremely hard to apply for financing and even said “you’re not really in line until you submit a finance or cash option” and here we are.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I got the same Agreements box. But also my EDD shifted to August 28-September 25. Ordered 6/1

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    If it makes anybody feel better, check out the lead times for a Mach-E(24+ weeks) or an E-Tron. 7-12 weeks isn't too bad all in all, considering the demand and the supply chain issues. I just wish the process was a bit more transparent. If they could 'build-to-order' instead of 'we will match...
