Tesla briefly made a "Limited Edition Mid Range" (LEMR) Model 3 before they started making standard range. Anyway, my LEMR got this update (2021.32.22), and I had no problems driving this morning with none of the errors mentioned.

Just took these pictures at lunch today!

There's also a planned Supercharger for Pismo Beach. The pin is just in the wrong spot for some reason: Find Us | Tesla

I'm charging here right now at 9:45am, 6/12 stalls full. The mobile charger still isn't available for use, but it definitely looks ready to go. I think they are just waiting for it to get busy, before letting anyone use it, so it will last as long as possible today.

I was there at 3pm today and there were about 20 cars waiting in line. I didn't need a charge so I left. It seemed to indicate one stall was always open, (which was false) which probably added to the lines. No mega charger truck thing here today, supposedly going to be there tomorrow though. My...

I'm here right now, the mobile station is super cool! There's a few engineers from Tesla here. I talked to one and he said this was their first time doing this. They knew SLO was going to be a high traffic area this Thanksgiving. It seems to be doing the job, there's consistently like 4 spots...

Sorry if this has already been asked, but for scheduled departure, how long does it keep the cabin at temperature for? For example, if I have my scheduled departure time set for 6am, and I end up actually leaving at 8am, will the cabin's temperature still be maintained? Or does it shut off after...

Yeah, the Miramar is pretty incredible too (pricey though). I think review typically takes like 1-2 months from what I've noticed (but that obviously varies on a case by case basis).

Did you use the second search bar? Not the one on the top of the page.

Looks like superchargers are indeed coming to the Miramar. Their permit application is in review, here's the details: MIRAMAR ACQUISITION ELECT 1200A 3P4W ELECTRICAL SERVICE, (4) TESLA SUPERCHARGING CABINETS, (8) TESLA CHARGING STATIONS, (1) 1200A SWITCHGEAR ASSEMBLY AND (1) UTILITY TRANSFORMER...

I was able to e-file no problem about an hour ago.

I payed cash and didn't have to sign an MVPA online.

Yep! Just with the aero caps off--I love the look!

Took delivery yesterday--everything went smooth and the car is awesome! I couldn't find any issues at delivery, so worth the wait!

My VIN disappeared right after getting it and making payment on 12/12. Yesterday, it was 48 hours until my scheduled delivery date and I was getting a little worried because I no longer had a VIN. I called Tesla and they had no update. I stopped by my local delivery center and got some...

Ahh okay. Even though my delivery is scheduled for 12/15 on my account, since my VIN appeared then disappeared today, it is likely more than 5-7 days out?

Now my VIN is gone, is that a bad sign?

As of yesterday, I had no VIN or any new update, even though my scheduled delivery date was 12/15 on my account page. I wanted to change the delivery location to my local delivery center, so I called the main Tesla number. I talked to someone and they said changing to the delivery center was no...

I didn't get any more contact from Tesla, but my account online was updated with a delivery of 12/15 at my house. I'd prefer to pick it up from the delivery center that's like 2 miles from my house. Would I just call the main Tesla number to request this change?

I also just got the second text, "Update on your delivery timing: We expect your Model 3 to be ready between 12/9-12/15. A Tesla rep will reach out when it is time to schedule your appointment." Ordered 10/18, red, black interior, aero, EAP. Located in Santa Barbara, CA. Excited! Could get it...

I have a red/black configuration as well. Ordered 10/18, located in Santa Barbara, CA. I received the first text but not the second. I optimistically think that people who received the first text are generally going to be getting their cars sooner than people who got the second text.

I never have before this, no.

I also received that text. Red, black interior, EAP, aero wheels. Ordered October 18th as a reservation holder and am in Santa Barbara, CA. Hope this means there's been some progress!

Anyone seen any reports of a red MR VIN getting assigned yet? I don't see any indication of that on the tracking spreadsheet or anywhere else. I ordered this on 10/18 about 30 minutes after the MR was available: -Red -Aero Wheels -Black Interior -Enhanced Autopilot -Santa Barbara, CA (about 2...

I don't think so. Also, I don't see any electrek article saying this--you linked to an Engaget article.

Here's the quote: “Some electric car motors use the permanent magnet technology, probably the most famous is the Tesla Model 3 Long Range. All the other Tesla models — Model X and Model 3 standard — use induction motors,” said David Merriman, a senior analyst at metals consultancy Roskill. I...

Non-owner, reserved online like 5 minutes before it was officially live (someone posted a link on reddit that let you reserve a bit early) and got my invite today! I did not get an email yet and am able to configure. I'm in Santa Barbara, California. Too bad I'm waiting for standard range. :(

Oh, I agree this is the only way to do it now! I just think they had always planned to do it this way (in terms of when they are producing each option), and that they were misleading in their previous delivery estimates when they indicated SR would be produced before LR demand was fully met.

I agree. How many people would buy a LR Model 3 right now if they could? I think like 50,000 people is a decent estimate. It's hard to interpret exactly how many Model 3's they hoped to produce in 2017, but I think it was along the lines of 50 in July, 100 in August, 1500 in September, 20,000...

I appreciate them attempting to give us some information for delivery estimates and understand that they have to adjust these estimates. However, I still feel like they never planned to produce SR as soon as they claimed which is why I feel misled. From a business standpoint, it makes sense to...

Any thoughts on how the AWD wording change being talked about here might indicate when the standard range (SR) Model 3 might be produced? Dual Motor no longer offers range choice To me, this shows that they were initially planning to produce AWD with SR or long range (LR), but decided to do...

Construction has started: San Luis Obispo CA Supercharger

I talked to a guy at the Santa Barbara Service Center today about Superchargers being installed in SB. Got some somewhat interesting info: I think this was rumored before, but the Santa Barbara Service Center/Showroom was close to becoming a Supercharger destination. The reason it didn't happen...

As of Saturday, 1/22/18, there was no new construction progress.

So I listened to this podcast to find out the exact source on this. They start talking about this around 1:08. To paraphrase, he was at a supercharger under construction (Calabasas or Thousand Oaks I think) and was talking to someone who seemed to be in charge of the whole supercharger system...

Saw a few nice pictures of the 18" wheels without caps on the Model 3 Facebook group. What's everyone's thoughts on different types of lug nut caps and center caps. These pictures seem to show a chrome lug nut cap and a lighter silver center cap.

Appreciate the input from someone that is familiar with my commute! I think I am definitely leaning towards EAP now, even though it is slightly stretching my budget. :)

Think they'd let me do a 60 mile test drive?

I'm having the hardest time deciding if EAP is worth it for me. I drive about 60 miles total daily on a highway for my work commute, but the highway has pretty bad lane markings for most of the part I drive on (The 101 in California, between Santa Barbara and Ventura). I am just not sure if AP2...

Just got around to stopping by the Santa Barbara service center tonight. I talked to an employee there and he said he had no update on when the Santa Barbara Supercharger would be constructed. He said he expects early 2018 though. He also mentioned that they hoped it would be in La Cumbre Plaza...

San Luis Obispo CA Supercharger Here's a thread where someone took a picture of the Atascadero Supercharger sign mentioning a 10 stall San Luis Obispo SC coming early 2018. I'll ask the Santa Barbara service center tomorrow if there is any update for a Supercharger in Santa Barbara.

Definitely go that first route. I grew up in Morro Bay, Taco Temple is a great choice (much better than Bayside Cafe). Be sure to try their desserts! Hofbrau is another cool meaty sandwich place on the more turisty part of town. San Luis Obispo is only 10 minutes farther on your route and has...

Here's a post someone made in the California section of the forums (California AB1184) "Now that the legislative session is over, it appears that AB 1184 died, but AB 544 (HOV program modification) and AB 615 (CVRP extension) passed. It appears there was no substantive change to the CVRP...

I was wondering if you could shoot me a link to these posts? Thanks!

Is this for the Model 3 standard range or long range?

Gotcha, that makes sense. Assuming this makes it out of committee, it looks like the bill has to be passed by the Senate by September 15th I think. Then looked at by the Assembly?

Can someone explain the whole process of this? Here's the CA rules I think: Overview of Legislative Process Here's the bill history: Bill History If I'm reading the history right, the Assembly approved the bill. Now the Senate is voting to approve the bill (maybe today if they have time?)...

Here's some more pictures: Tesla Model 3 in Fremont Cali Office Tesla Model 3 - 18" rims without aero wheel cover.

Anyone have experience with Autopilot 1.0 or 2.0 between Santa Barbara and Ventura on the US 101 Northbound/Southbound? It's my daily commute and I'm curious to how it performs with the poor(ish) lane marking and curves.
