    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    I did a road trip from the west coast to Newfoundland and back with a new model 3 lfp. Lots of supercharging along the way. The car now has 20000km and gets the same 430km on a full charge. During the trip it very quickly dropped to 434km full charge and then reduced much more slowly.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I have a brand new Tesla Model 3! It is awesome! Thank you all for all the information and ideas that helped me know (or at least believe I knew) what was going on and what to expect through the long 9 month wait. I'll probably spend less time on the forum now, preferring to drive the car. For...

    We kept getting about 1 day into each window when the window moved or shortened.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Faster and faster like heading toward a waterfall. Strange after a 9 month wait! Still no VIN but a final payment email arrived and the window shrunk to 4 days (Aug 16-19). Have just requested a change to financing and will see what happens next. Is getting a four day window and payment...

    I wrote to the BC government and they replied that if you had pre-ordered or reserved funds for a vehicle that has not yet been delivered. As long as your vehicle is delivered before October 31, 2022, you may still receive the old rebate amount (3k) without going through an application process.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    This morning as we ate into the previous 14 day window, the window suddenly shrunk to a 10 day window with the same end date Aug 14-Aug 24. This would be endlessly amusing if we weren't waiting for a car we really want. Does anyone else have experience with 10 day windows? What does it mean...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Needing a ferry ride and/or flight for the delivery, we elected to change our car from jointly owned to a single owner. We'll change it to joint on the first registration renewal. I don't know if this is useful to you but I think Tesla would do this for you quite easily.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I figured the Aug 6 - Aug 20 EDD window had to change as Aug 6 wore on without any word. Sure enough, I woke up this morning to a revision: new EDD Aug 10 - Aug 24. I wonder when the VIN appears ...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I just emailed the BC govt and they advised me hat if the car is already ordered and is delivered prior to October 31, 2022, there is no need to apply for the rebate under the new rules and the $3000 rebate will apply (assuming the car was ordered early enough to be priced under the cap.)

    Even mild good news is welcome! EDD just revised a week sooner to July 31 - August 28.

    As an optimist, I would prefer to believe this is due to an LFP supply issue (to be fixed) rather than an excessive preference for selling higher priced vehicles.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Your experience is similar to what others have said: changes in the US are based on price at the original order date (it seems) but changes in Canada are based on the current price.

    Sorry, I can't find it now. Where I recall writing before ("Contact" at the very bottom of the web page) seems only to pertain to Solar and Power Storage. I'd follow the other suggestion and search your email back for the last email from Tesla (perhaps when you paid your deposit). Write to...

    I never phone. I send a message via the website (including my reservation number). I've always gotten a reply relating to my issue within a day or two.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Just delayed a week or two as of today. I agree that it probably has something to do with LFP battery availability. I feel I prefer the LFP batteries (for their likely slower deterioration with use) and, at any rate, any change in order would lead to loss of around $8000 in subsidies here in BC.

    Your order date is in the range of people getting their cars now. I'd guess you won't have to wait much longer. Patience!

    That 10% has been clarified as 10% of salaried employees. None of the people who actually build cars, batteries and solar panels (hourly staff) will be cut according to Musk. Musk also said in another context that his companies specialize in turning the impossible into the late. All of us in...

    Tesla CCS Type 1 Adapter from Tesla Korea

    That sounds a lot like my experience. I now have the CCS adapter in my hands. I had some confusion at the DELIVERED website about whether I needed to repackage the shipment (I didn't really) but it all worked out in the end.

    Tesla CCS Type 1 Adapter from Tesla Korea

    I used Visa on the Tesla Korea website and had no problem with it going through. I then used PayPal for the shipping fees through the forwarder.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Does anyone have an idea why very old (Aug 2021) orders remain unfilled? An unusual set of options running afoul of the need to build cars in batches? Waiting for enough vehicles to that destination to fill a car carrier semi? I haven't been waiting nearly as long as some - November 2021 - but...

    Even cheaper through Tesla Korea and a mail forwarder: US$294 including shipping - CAD$420 including the duties of CAD$50 through Fedex.

    OD: 11/06/2021 M3 RWD/White/Black/Aero/No FSD At the order date, this was the only trim and color that qualified for the BC and Canadian Govt. EV rebates - now none do. The SA says the rebates still apply if the order was prior to late Nov, 2021. An order today would thus leave me out of...

    Tesla CCS Type 1 Adapter from Tesla Korea

    Using DELIVERED Korea along with ordering with my Tesla account on the Tesla Korea shop netted a Tesla CCS1 adapter for me. It did require some experimentation and creative use of Google Translate to get the right parts of the address in the right boxes. Note the caveat that it only works for 3...
