    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    My car was on GC. I changed my order to one from the inventory yesterday, and today I got a notification saying it's ready to be scheduled for delivery. The earliest available delivery date is 12 December which I've definitely chosen. My location is in Melbourne. I'd advise giving Tesla a call...

    Pay in cash. People opt for a novated lease primarily when interest rates are elevated.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    We shouldn't take the NSW port schedule too seriously, it's just there as a placeholder. AAT's the go, used by internal team.

    Sh*t. They are sending GC back to its old pen, Point Cartwright Anchorage. But after the anchorage, would it then be heading to berth 3?

    Might it be that GC is merely berthing at the grain terminal to procure some rice and flour for their midday meal today?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    If Tesla had stuck to their earlier approach of hiring whole ships, they might've dodged the recent drama with the stink bugs. By having the whole ship to themselves, they'd have better control over biosecurity, rather than now where they've got no say over the other brands' cars on board. It...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    If parking sensors are removed, it's uncertain whether they would still detect children in front of the car. If not, that would be quite concerning.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just spoke with someone from Tesla who might have fielded many calls on the same issue today. He mentioned that the ETD won't be updated until the schedule for GC is officially confirmed. However, he believes there's a good likelihood that the cars will arrive in January 😵

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Different businesses adopt varied approaches to managing their inventory and shipping processes. If you place an order for a BYD car, it's typically delivered within a week. In contrast, Tesla struggles to match this efficiency due to its minimal inventory, likely a cost saving measure. Tesla...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Could it be that GC is currently unloading where it's moored? TMR QLD says GC's next port is Port Kembla after reaching Point Cartwright Anchorage if I don't get it wrong.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    The 19th appears to be a more accurate estimate, when compared to the previous two rescheduling which is a backward shift of 4 days.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    It's looking quite promising! I'm curious why the GC is planned to first arrive at Point Cartwright, which is north (which is the opposite direction), before heading south to Port Kembla, as per TMR QLD's schedule.

    If this is true, it proves that Port Authority NSW is an expert in forecasting delays, with a four day window being the most suitable :D

    If that is the case, I would cancel my current order and hold out for the refreshed Model Y.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    It appears that GC might have departed from the "ship to ship transfer anchorage #1" area and could be heading to a different location. Does this seem like a promising development?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    It's hard to remain hopeful since there's still no plan in place for GC on TMR QLD. The schedule from the NSW port authorities might face another reshuffling. It's best to maintain modest expectations for now.

    "The Glovis Caravel was ordered to leave New Zealand yesterday evening after the crew reported finding nearly 600 stink bugs, 12 of them alive, while the vessel was anchored near Auckland, Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) border clearance services director Steve Gilbert said." "Even...

    Regarding ship to ship transfer, it is more likely that another vessel takes over the cargo destined for Brisbane, allowing the Glovis Caravel to proceed with its next stop without docking.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Looks like the Glovis Caravel has scheduled for a "ship to ship transfer" on 8th November, as per TMR QLD's latest update. Then, the Port Authority NSW is saying it'll arrive at Port Kembla on the 10th and depart for Melbourne the same day. If all this is on the level, then it seems they've...

    Morning Cello is scheduled to arrive at Webb Dock 2 West in Port Melbourne on the 9th. Currently, it appears that this dock is unoccupied. Wondering if the delay might be due to general port traffic management. Hopefully, there won't be any hold ups.

    No, my EDD remains the same, set between 14 Nov and 5 Dec, just as it was when I placed the order. The real time ETA at VIC Ports keeps fluctuating; it's back to the 9th now! Maybe we should just relax on the sofa, enjoy the Melbourne Cup, and wait for a magical sms to arrive.

    The ETA has been changed to 7th. It appears that Morning Cello might be moving ahead in line.

    Oh, it implies that someone else has cancelled their order, and luckily you have been assigned to a car on the Glovis that has just been cancelled!

    Has anyone in QLD with a car on the Morning Cello received a SMS confirming its arrival in Australia?
