    7-seat config waiting room

    Day 1 reservation for a 7seat/white/black/tow/noFSD/gem. 112XXX VIN. Picked up on 11MAR. New console and heated steering wheel. No issues visible (fit and finish-wise) and the car drives nicely (I also have a RWD 2018 Model 3). The updated MCU is neat compared to v2.5 that is in the M3 (but...

    7-seat config waiting room

    FYI: My SA today on my 112XXX VIN stated that it includes heated steering wheel, center console but that the updated headlights are only for Performance models right now.

    And, me, sitting on a recently provided 112XXX VIN on my order page. :sadge:

    7-seat config waiting room

    Is there someplace that has a reference to these model updates and the VIN range where they have been confirmed? For example, heated steering wheel confirmed on VINXXXXXX, new console confirmed on VINXXXXXX, etc.

    7-seat config waiting room

    A first-night March 2019 reservation holder, and never has there been a delivery date estimate on my order/reservation page. As of today, I now see a delivery estimate of February 28 - March 20. No VIN.

    I was wondering the same, and if this (not to speculate) could be in response to issues in the early deliveries.

    7-seat config waiting room

    Current Tesla owner, first night 7-seat reservation holder. Still no VIN. White / no FSD / Tow Package / Black Int. Between s/WallStreetBets, this site, and Tesla.com, my F5 key is getting a workout over the last week.

    7-seat config waiting room

    Day 1 reservation holder (white/no fsd). My old financing offer (that was established many months ago when my order was prematurely moved to the "get ready for delivery" status) was just updated today (saw a credit check alert this morning) to more current rates. This movement feels like a...

    7 Seat "in production" email

    Not sure if this has made the rounds, but I just received the following email from Tesla regarding my Model Y 7 Seat reservation: Hi Colin, We’re excited to announce that Model Y with seating for up to seven is now in production. Please log into your Tesla Account to complete your order...

    Navigate on Auto-Pilot= Boston/Eastern Mass

    I use it regularly daily on 90, 95, and 495. My commute generally takes me between Worcester area to the Burlington area. I have thoroughly enjoyed Autopilot for my commute (80-100mi round trip) since getting my Model 3 back in June (10,000mi driven so far). I am not that impressed or happy...

    Massachusetts EV Fuel Cost Savings

    This is a great conversation that I am very interested in, as I currently have oil heat, no access to gas. Am looking to get some solar installed. And I would love to find options for replacing my oil tank/furnace. I had thought that the Mitsubishi mini-split systems were the only practical...

    No front plate?

    Does anyone have recommendations for removing the front plate from a Model 3? They use a (assumed) very strong adhesive. I would like to remove the front plate/bracket, but don’t want to risk damaging anything underneath.

    A REAL wireless charging pad for the Model 3

    Looks like Jeda has someone taking ownership of communications going forward. I just got this via email today: My name is Isabelle, and I just joined the Jeda team to help out with communications, workflow, and orders. Prior to joining Jeda, I have been informed that our team was struggling to...

    Just realized I didn't get my die cast car. :-(

    Did you take delivery in Dedham? I just took delivery in Dedham yesterday and found mine in the center console. Might want to call Dedham directly if you picked yours up there.

    Hollis Auto Body - Recommendation

    One more thumbs up for Hollis. Years ago my Audi S4 was rear-ended and I used Hollis for the repairs — about $10K worth. The end result was perfect and, thankfully, covered by insurance completely.

    Did Everyone Who Made A Reservation On Day 1 Get A Model Car?

    FYI: picked up my M3 in Dedham yesterday. I had the scale model M3 in my center console. For what it’s worth, I am part of the unwashed masses (I.e. online reservation holder).

    New Englanders -- check in!

    Finally took ownership of my first (and likely not last) Tesla at the Dedham store today. Was very pleased with the fit and finish and the quality of the detailing performed. And, was very happy that they are still giving the 1/43 scale Model 3s to owners. I hope everyone else who has waited...

    oh right. Like we are to believe you haven’t already taken 3 of them.

    What to expect for paperwork and process?

    I have been told that due to the delays in providing final contract paperwork, Tesla is accepting personal checks at time of delivery. you might want to ask about this option.

    Tesla expanding to Rhode Island

    I am sure the drive isn’t too bad as long as you have a nice, tall, cold glass of coffee milk.

    How red is it?

    Another vote for Mazda as having a stunning red. Even though the Tesla red isn’t the Mazda red, I am (hopefully) taking delivery of a red M3 in a little more than a week.

    East Coast Model 3 Delivery Delays (or just me)

    I got an update from the ISA: “your vehicle is in transit to our main compound. From there, it will be sent up to the Northeast.” This seems to me that, if I assume the “main compound” is in California, my car (which had original delivery date of June 2) never left California. Last week I was...

    2 years 2 months 2 days

    2 years, 2 months, and 2 days ago I made a reservation for a Model 3, like just about everyone else here, without knowing much about what I was putting down a thousand dollars for — I knew I wanted an EV, and I knew that Tesla was the company making the most compelling car (and charging...

    East Coast Model 3 Delivery Delays (or just me)

    Ahh, Thanks! Saved my bacon. This reminded me I needed to call USAA and change the policy effective date for my Model 3 to the updated (delayed) delivery date.

    East Coast Model 3 Delivery Delays (or just me)

    I am just hoping that I am still taking delivery before the MA EV rebate money runs out (it’s getting awfully close). Otherwise, I am pretty patient. Although, a bit of disappointment because my original delivery date was 2 years, 2 months, and 2 days after I reserved which seemed...

    East Coast Model 3 Delivery Delays (or just me)

    Absolutely agree that there is many possibilities for shipping delays as cars get transition (from carrier, to train, etc). And, not any fault of Tesla in many of these cases. Was just curious if anyone else is in same situation (if there was a large shipper issue somewhere between there and...

    East Coast Model 3 Delivery Delays (or just me)

    I was scheduled to pickup my Model 3 at Dedham on June 2nd. I was just told today that there have been delays in transit and my delivery is now pushed back by 10 days. I was wondering if there are overall delivery issues with cars heading to the east coast, New England, or Dedham — anyone else...

    Red Model 3 with Xpel Stealth

    Really looks good (besides the obvious quality issues that BMW suffers from — hope their stock doesn’t take a tumble after this!) This might be the tipping point for a Stealth wrap now — especially as here in Mass I have seen more red Model 3s than any other color and would love to make mine...

    Model 3 Xpel Pics and Recommendations in Mass

    I should be taking delivery of my Model 3 in a couple weeks at the Dedham MA showroom. I commute about 80-90mi daily and want to protect the car and preserve its beauty for years — so, I have decided on doing a Xpel wrap (I haven’t decided on full front or full wrap). I am in Massachusetts...

    Red Model 3 with Xpel Stealth

    I am looking for pics of anyone that has wrapped their Red Model 3 with Xpel Stealth.

    Let's start speculating: Why did Tesla takeaway VINs

    VINs are the secret ingredient in his new candy line.

    VIN Assignment

    When I had access to my VIN, I logged into USAA and added the VIN and start date/delivery date — hopefully, it doesn’t change. @Faustic Did your ISA confirm that the VIN is the same, or just that you had a VIN?

    VIN Assignment

    VIN is no longer appearing in my account page as of today (although, delivery date still is). I have seen reports of this before, and it has ended up with delayed delivery and assignment of a different VIN. Hopefully, my ISA will reach out today before I am forced to chase him down.

    Did someone update the checklist with “Check to make sure car didn’t fall off truck”?

    VIN Assignment

    The Sheet (tm) was pretty good at predicting for me. I got my VIN on 5/14 and have a delivery scheduled for 6/1. For Massachusetts, The Sheet (tm) estimates that VIN to delivery has been 23-24 days. So for me, I am looking at 18 days (unless there are unexpected delays between now and June 1st).

    Where to see a real live Model 3 in Massachusetts

    Drove behind a blue model 3 for about 15 miles on 90-W last evening. I feel sorry for the person I was on the phone with at the time, because all I talked about was how special the car was. Hopefully I am taking delivery of my own before the end of this month.

    VIN Assignment

    Did you reach out proactively (if so, how and who did you call/email) or did the ISA send an email or call you? I have yet to be contacted about receiving a VIN yesterday and wasn’t sure if it made sense to call or email someone, or just wait.

    Where to see a real live Model 3 in Massachusetts

    Just got my VIN assigned today, so it is possible that the first real-live Model 3 I see (up close and) in person will be my own. Hoping it’s not too long before I am making the trip to Dedham to take delivery.
