    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I don't think you would find any other car loan with 3.99% rate, the best I can remember was IMB with 4.88%. The only thing with better rate I can think ow would be redraw from your mortgage.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I understand that you trying rationalise it, but, as I said, I got real situation this Sunday on the parking lot, and nothing stopped the car from going in reverse. I was lucky that the nearest object was ~3 meters behind me. Please stop explaining me how the car was fine, and I was wrong...

    Yes, because I just almost got into accident due to Tesla's poor UI design choices? Does that seem strange to you? I disliked the very, as we say in IT, "optionated" user experience from the start, and now I found that it's not only a nuisance, but a safety issue as well. I got your point that...

    All those things need to be thoroughly investigated. EV adoption should not come with the costs of people houses and lives.

    That would "just a case of getting used" if it was not a car not driving in a way driver expects and can injure people. That's brushing off safety issue. That's not moving "play" button in Spotify interface in unfamiliar place, that's experimental features that do not have enough safety...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Just for the sake of simplicity, my real situation could be replaced with hypothetical "you are stopping at STOP sign of T intersection, with intention to turn left, turning on left blinker, look both ways that there are no cars, and start moving". If you used the wrong stalk you will go...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    yes I did? As I mentioned, I stopped, turned the "blinker" on, ensured that car on the right gives me the way, and started moving. Do not see how that "8 kmh limit" changes anything?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It's not about "remembering", after 20+ years on the road most of your small hand movements are just muscle memory. Yes, I'm using the left stalk for blinkers 98% of the time, but when your mind is overloaded a bit - like you need to check if guy on the right is giving you the way, the way to...

    After driving ~100km over 2 weeks... Car is ok, but nearly got into accident. Was leaving carpark, got to exit lane on the left, stopped to give way to another car, put left blinker on, started moving... And realised I'm moving backwards, almost hit the car behind me. Muscle memory from other...

    Got the car yesterday. It would be my wife's car, not mine. Honestly, I don't like the car. Yes, the drive is fine, and probably fuel cost wise it's great, but UI ruins everything, from door handles and indicators on the other side of steering wheel, to horrible controls hidden in 3rd level...

    ~350km left for Morning Clara, so it should arrive to Port Kembla this night/Friday morning. Only 2 other ships are sheduled for the same terminal, so hopefully unloading starts before Saturday, otherwise there is a chance it would be delayed a bit due to nuclear waste unloading: Nuclear waste...

    There is another RoRo unloading now (Frontier Ace), and it should leave at 8am local time tomorrow, so MC is planned to dock at 12:30pm. There should be no more delays. That probably means leaving for PK on 09/03, and arriving to PK 10-11 March. Hope we would see deliveries starting late next...

    Still they moved Morning Clara to Sunday. And there are no other ships heading for "Fisherman Island No 1" before that. So looks like best case scenario Port Kembla 08/03-09/03

    Looks like Morning Clara is delayed in Brisbane (due to weather?). Still at anchorage, planned to go to port on 2nd of March and leave for Port Kembla on 03/03. PK schedule os not yet updated and still showing arrival on 03/03

    According to port authority schedule, it arrive to "Drift Point Cartwright" 27/02 2am local time (that's probably 26/02 4pm UTC that you see in your tracker), then to "Fisherman Island No 1" (that's where loading/unloading happens) at 1pm. From here: Public Pages

    I thought I read that that quarterly schedule was planned to be dropped in favor of smaller batches, and looks like that happened already? We have cars built in start of Jan and cars built in start of Feb, so it's not "AU cars built in 1st month of the quarter" anymore. Also there are Q1 orders...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Sorry I missed it - first line of schedule is directly saying that Morning Crystal would be in Shanghai on 09/03. So if I understand current process correctly, next batch of VINs should start appearing first week of March. Another thing is looks like Morning Clara would go straight back to...

    That's my understanding. Re next ship - Morning Crystal would leave Auckland on 25/02, and then according to this http://www.armacup.com/documents/Schedules/AsiaNZSchedule.pdf would arrive to Brisbane on 24/03. That's 27 days in between, and last time it took 16 days Auckland->Shanghai, and 11...

    That makes little sense. Is there LTE coverage on the cargo ship? I doubt it. Maybe Shanghai is the last place where the car was online?

    I checked it - looks like it's not really applicable to LR, only to RWD (but yes, rebate is expiring soon) LR price in NZ: $84,943 with on-road costs, so not eligible.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I am surprised if Tesla allows you to transfer your order to someone - with these waiting times they definitely do not want scalpers to to bloat the demand and, as a consequence, blow up estimated waiting time even more. And if it's not about transfer by Tesla, but just selling car right after...

    Just run it in any shell (linux bash/macos zsh/fish/windows subsystem for linux). You would need to have jq package installed (yum install jq / brew install jq / apt install jq, depending on your environment). If there are any cars available, it'll show table with data, otherwise nothing.

    I disagree, and Coca Cola recipe analogy is really something strange. 99.9% of Coca Cola company value is not their recipe. I hope Vedaprime's value is not in hiding information either. Open source information cannot hurt the business that is in good faith.

    Not sure when Spotify got into business of selling information and analysis :) I'm not saying Vedaprime should be free, it's his/her legit business that I'm respectful of. I'm saying we should not promote monopoly on that information and analysis, we can do that to some extent for free using...

    That sounds like an ad :) Not sure why every time someone in this tread mentions sharing of information about logistics of delivery, it's brushed off with "oh that's what Vedaprime is for, don't bother and go buy subscription". Yep, information that is provided there could be superior, but hey...
