    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    Good point - I didn’t realize that S/X still have USS. Also - S/X were only 5.4% of production in the third quarter, so that would equate to around 27K of the 495K in the 4th quarter.

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    It’s definitely not a “small percentage” of Tesla owners who will be without USS. Reuters has reported that Tesla expected to produce ~495,000 cars during the current quarter (October through December). If Tesla doesn’t bring back parking assist by the end of this month, that means roughly a...

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    1) Power/efficiency, 2) supercharger network, and 3) software/UI (including the Tesla app) are three areas where Tesla seems to be ahead of the competition. It could be two years, it could be 5 years, but the competition is not at parity in those areas. At the same time, there are other...

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    I felt the same as you - the lack of USS was troubling, but ultimately it didn't stop me from taking delivery of my Model 3 in late October. More than a month later, I'm still waiting for the Vision-based parking software to be added, but I am hopeful it will happen in the next few months. In...

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    I agree with you, but I also am wondering if maybe the backlog will get longer again after January 1. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of people put in orders to get the new federal tax rebate. In a country of 330 million, there could be be many thousands of people waiting until January to...

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    I apologize - I misunderstood the article I’d read on Drive Tesla Canada: https://driveteslacanada.ca/news/tesla-brings-distance-measurements-to-cars-with-no-ultrasonic-sensors-in-2022-40-4/ Apparently the code is there, but it may not be available yet. This sucks...

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    The park distance functionality is already back. It came back last week with software 2022.40.4. I received a notification in the app yesterday asking me if I want to install 2022.40.4 - I’ve been busy with work so haven’t had a chance to install / test it yet, but the release notes show that...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Based on the updated delivery timing, it seems pretty clear that you jumped ahead in the line. I think most people who ordered in mid to late August (before you) have EDD’s that range from early November to around Mid December. I don’t see the logic in worrying about the reason for the date...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I have the following already sitting in a pile: mobile charger, wall charger, carpeted floor mats, roof sunshades, frunk mat, and trunk well liner. On the way: textile rear trunk mat. EDD: Nov 4- Dec 9. 🤣

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I can't answer this directly (I still have a 5-week window for EDD in Nov/Dec), but I don't think you have to worry about a 1-2 day trip, because other people on the forum have said that when you schedule your pickup, you can choose between several dates. Some of these people who were on...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I wonder how many other people are still waiting for a white model 3 with 18" wheels and basic Autopilot. It seems like Tesla sometimes tries to offload cancellations via the easiest possible method, i.e., offering the vehicle to the customer who is closest to the Fremont factory. What they...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    That's great news! Hopefully many more people will see EDDs move up as Tesla works to deliver as many as possible in the last month of the quarter.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Thank you for clarifying this - very helpful info. After reading your post, I cancelled my mobile connector order (which I had placed when I ordered the car on Aug 20th). A few minutes ago, I placed a new, separate order for the connector; hopefully it will ship soon.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Well that makes two of us that don’t know what a mobile connector has to do with EDD. However, multiple forum users have speculated that, due to short supply, Tesla is deliberately shipping the connector *only* to users with an upcoming delivery in the near future. I ordered my connector on...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Can you tell us where you are in the delivery process for your Model 3? Have you received your vehicle yet? My EDD is scheduled for between Nov 15 and Dec 27th, so I'm thinking that if I cancel my mobile connector order and re-order today, they may keep me at the back of the line until it's...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I ordered my mobile connector on August 20th, and it hasn't shipped yet. On the other hand, I ordered a wall charger on Tuesday (two days ago), and it shipped the next day. The only logical conclusion is that the mobile connector is not in stock. People on the forums are stating that the...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Update: My wall connector just shipped this morning (I ordered it yesterday from the Tesla online ship). Given all the comments above, it looks like Tesla is not having any trouble shipping out the wall connectors (an encouraging sign for first time EV / Tesla buyers). I wonder when they will...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Has anyone ordered a wall charger in the last few weeks, and if so could you comment on shipping & delivery time? I ordered one this morning, but no delivery estimate was provided. Too bad Tesla is not able to provide a rough delivery timeline when ordering products, the way most online...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I was wondering if maybe Tesla has better A/C than other cars. I drove a rented M3 a few weeks ago, and I couldn't believe how fast it cooled down, even after sitting in really hot sun (it was black exterior / black interior). I don't drive a lot of different cars and I haven't researched this...

    Can you delay delivery to wait on Model Y improvements?

    That’s interesting about the Gen 4 AP hardware. I wonder what the magnitude of improvement might be?

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    A couple of the cars listed above have options, i.e., the blue paint or the 19" wheels. I've read that orders with added options are prioritized ahead of orders without them. I can't confirm if this is correct.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Here’s a theory: They received several vehicles near the end of the day today, and they don’t have time to detail and deliver all of them tomorrow. As a result, they are hoping to re-schedule some deliveries for Friday and Saturday. In your case, you’ll be out of the country on Saturday, so...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Great to see that you move forward by a whole month in the 4 week window - that is good news for everyone here. I'm EDD 11/15 - 12/27 and hoping it gets better as I go along (OD = 8/20)

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    This is great for the rest of us as well - looks like people are seeing M3 EDDs move up. Better supply & production speed, or perhaps some people cancelled because they want to get the 2023 tax credit?

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Interesting - I’ve read that Tesla may prioritize deliveries with add-ons (Search Google for “reddit +tesla order delivery queue”). I can’t recall other mass-market retail businesses doing that, but perhaps it’s a holdover from the days when the company didn’t have as much cash on hand.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Is your delivery window still listed as Dec 1 to Jan 12th? I ordered mine on Aug 20th, with an initial delivery window of “Oct to Dec 2022,” but it updated the following day to “Nov 15 - Dec 27.” It would be strange for me to have an earlier window than you.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    New user here, so I apologize if this question has been answered already. I just put in an order for an M3 RWD and estimated delivery is October to December, i.e., 2-4 month wait time. Needless to say, I am very excited, but I'm left with the following question: The delivery times (2-4 months)...
