    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Tesla transferred my WA state plates on my wife’s Tesla. It wasn’t a trade-in as it was coming from a previous Tesla that was totaled but should work the same. They just asked for photos of the plates and registration to send along with the paperwork. I told them up front I wanted to keep the...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Thanks. Me too. My guess is bumper scratches and driver door leading edge scrape was in transit. The crappy touch up paint was definitely factory as I found it done in places the SC wouldn’t think/care to look. It’s like they caught the paint scrapes in QA/QC and the shoddy paint slopping was...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    But it’s not all bad. After a weekend of hard work I’ve fully detailed it and done my best to fix their shenanigans. I’ve given it the ceramic and hydrophobic coatings treatment and it looks great. Thanks for the shared misery for the 81 days (but who’s counting :)) it took to get it. Good luck...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    So Graduation Day for me last Thursday. End up accepting the car but lots of little issues. Spent the weekend detailing and putting on a ceramic coat so got to seeing a lot I probably wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. Supposedly they’re going to fix it all but other than the hood and the...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    So you got that star “moderator” treatment and you just had to come rub it in our poor sad faces 🤣🤣 J/k…glad it’s going smoothly for some. Hate to think it’s this frustrating for everyone.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I feel your pain. My last two Tesla’s were CPO and Tesla refused to deliver them any closer so one was 5.5 and one was 8 hours away (of course that’s the one the master charger went out on). Good luck, have fun, and don’t forget to note everything before you drive off since they only give you...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Also reminds me that it depends on your local code but most places require a permit to install the plug. Places like CA require it to be a certified electrician to file the permit and do the work for non-minor work which this qualifies as. The permit and panel calculation alone will usually run...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Yes. I got quoted $800 in CA a couple years back when it was just on the other side of the breaker box. As soon as you say Tesla they start $$$$

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    So get your popcorn because the entertainment continues. I texted my SA this morning as promised to get the vehicle location and confirm the 3/8 EDD after the previous we put it in a warehouse instead of on a train debacle. SA texts back that my car will make it to the delivery center...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    True but I’d add production capacity to that list. For most of the competition it’s like 2016 was for the M3…you can order one but it’s 1-2 years to delivery. I feel like my ‘22 M3’s taking that long but when I looked at market there were few true competitors who were actually taking orders and...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Read through hear a few times but never got around to posting until now. Words of advice: Don’t be nice. Pester your SA for status updates during the delivery process. I got my VIN 2/12 (174*** has AMD) and got delivery scheduled for 2/28. I asked for a status on the vehicle the next week...
