    Supercharger - Mehlville, MO

    I assumed that was on hold pending the anti-Tesla litigation getting resolved once and for all, but according to this article the project is still on track at least: Auto dealers renew fight against Tesla in Jefferson City

    Should I or not?....Re-thinking...

    Not an ideal solution, but if test driving the car would put your mind at ease, you could rent one on Turo for a day. Here's one in Plano (I see you're in Dallas). Perhaps another forum member would let you drive theirs to avoid the rental charge. Luxury is in the eye of the beholder. From my...

    6 days from order to VIN - is that unusual?

    Got my invite to configure on Friday (4/6) and my VIN late Friday night. 17,9XX too, so a recent build. I'll take it. Red, 19"s and EAP. Now let's hope shipping to VA and delivery go quickly.

    Should I or not?....Re-thinking...

    Seems like your mind is cherry picking the bad information to filter through. The overall reviews of the Model 3 have been stellar. The car has won several car of the year awards despite being largely unavailable to auto reviewers and available in only one config. Almost all of the negatives...

    VIN Assignment

    Got invite on Friday (4/6), ordered immediately, got VIN the same night. 17,9XX. Red with glorious 19"s. Hoping delivery to VA isn't unbearably long.

    Configuration invite for Non-Day 1 Reservations

    Any owners with Day 1 reservations that have not been invited yet? (and checked their account to be sure)

    Model 3 Delay Effect on price

    The article you link to references well-documented issues that were occurring in mid-December. Your stock has risen from $305 on Dec 1 to today's close of $338 in that time... a 10.8% gain. I don't think those delays are hurting you too much.

    Is Tysons Corner your local service center?

    Supercharger - Kettleman City, CA (LIVE 15 Nov 2017, 24 V2 + 16 V3 stalls, lounge)

    I think this is absolutely what Tesla will reveal tomorrow with the Semi. Two or four batteries that can independently Supercharge at essentially the same speed as a car. The only question would be how that would affect battery life long term. That said, I don't think Kettleman City has any...

    Highest production VIN in the wild

    Don't think this is accurate, but saw this on Teslarati: "While it’s still unclear if Tesla has begun to dig itself out of “deep production hell“, recent sightings of Model 3 vehicles bearing VINs in the thousands suggests that the company is starting to step through the ramp portion of its...

    LR model range being undersold and more!

    People (including me) are just looking for anything to keep that magic alive :) The delivery event was 3 months ago now and essentially zero new info has been officially released. Hell, new sighting pictures are old hat at this point. Let us have our 15 more miles of range!!

    POLL - Glass Roof

    Pretty sure the glass roof on the S has 98% UV protection (and one would assume the 3 would be similar), so developing melanoma shouldn't be a concern

    Highest production VIN in the wild

    Ford's 2nd best selling sedan (the Fusion) is one of Consumer Reports 10 least reliable cars. While the X is also on that list, the S just got bumped up to "Above Average" reliability by CR. I don't know that it's a given that Ford (or Toyota for that matter) would automatically make Tesla...

    Record here when you receive your invite to build your Model 3...

    My guess is first "real person" delivery happens on Oct 26th after the semi announcement. Pretty sure I read in one of the first drive reviews after the initial unveil that Elon was considering another delivery event for real deliveries
