    Omaha Service Center

    You're probably not wrong about Elon Time. But they'd better step on it. There are probably already twice as many Tesla owners in Nebraska as were a year ago.

    Nebraska Tesla Club?

    My average over 9000 miles has been 299 Wh/mile. I do a daily circuit between Omaha and Lincoln and cruise at 85 mph, which probably accounts for my relatively high energy use.

    Nebraska Tesla Club?

    Damn- only saw about this today. Perhaps next time. I was busy selecting my new residence. Goodbye suburbs, hello downtown Omaha! I'm probably going to end up with the highest mileage Model 3 in no time (downtown Omaha to downtown Lincoln commute).

    What is the normal battery usage for the M3 LR

    I put about 100 miles per day on mine and my average over the last 8,000 miles has been 299 Wh/mile, but most of my commute is at 85 mph, which does not translate to particularly low drag for any vehicle.

    Nebraska, OPPD Douglas County, $4500/$500 Rebate Thread

    I'll post what I learn in the meeting! :)

    Nebraska, OPPD Douglas County, $4500/$500 Rebate Thread

    The EV rebate is funded through a grant from the Nebraska Environmental Trust. I'm not sure why they have Douglas county as the scope, considering that's not even appropriately representative of the Omaha metro. I took possession of my Model 3 a month early, anyway. But damn. Lincoln Electric...

    Nebraska, OPPD Douglas County, $4500/$500 Rebate Thread

    As an OPPD customer in Sarpy county who took possession of my Model 3 in May, I find this a very frustrating thread.

    Nebraska Owners - Model 3 Reservation/Delivery Tracker

    Ooof! I think blue and white will be brilliant. I'll be curious to hear how easy the white interior is to keep clean.

    Nebraska Tesla Club?

    I only just discovered this thread, and this is great! So here's a question for owners. Where have you had a positive experience with a tire rotation in Omaha? I figured I should get around to it, as my May delivery Model 3 is already nearly to 8k miles!

    What is the least attractive color for Model 3, from your observations?

    Is this another color preference post? Sigh. There is no objective answer to this question, so what's the point? I'd never buy a "normal" silver colored car, and I'd have preferred a dark red/burgundy, but that wasn't an option. I have MSM, which contrasts well with sport wheels. But that, you...

    New Configuration Invites 4/6

    Took my 4/6 invite out on its first road trip over Memorial weekend and visited this monument to the internal combustion engine, Carhenge. I also crossed 3,000 on my odometer this morning! For those of you still waiting, know that you'll be rewarded for your patience.

    Steering vibrates/shakes about 40 MPH

    Have you noticed how close to a lane divider or the shoulder you are? All of these I've seen so far have ended up just being the lane keep assist vibrating the steering wheel.

    Fastest level 2 charge in the world!

    I should have clarified. I meant, do you always charge to such a high percentage of battery capacity? Do you have concerns about degradation?

    Disappearing Documents?

    They come as PDF for electronic signature over email. It's not from your ISA, and after I prodded mine after a day or two, he got the team to send them within 15 minutes. It was also at that time that final payment was enabled online.

    What happens if you get a delivery time frame that you can't be available for?

    I was in Africa during Tesla's preferred delivery timeframe, but I had no trouble choosing my own date. They seem to be accommodating to people who are doing out of state pick-up, as well, which is similar to out of state delivery, I suppose.

    Are scale models still being given at delivery? :)

    Mine was in the center console. :)

    New Configuration Invites 4/6

    No. I'd have had an additional 90 or so miles from KC, but I decided to stop at the Council Bluffs supercharger and add another 30 or so miles of range in the time it took to grab a coffee.

    Paying for your car...

    ACH is what I did. It was only activated three days before my delivery, so there wasn't even enough time for the transaction to post, but Tesla didn't care. It'll be very obvious on your account screen once your rep has enabled payment. I specifically asked for it to be opened up, thinking...

    Picked up in Kansas City this afternoon. Everything went off without a hitch and now it's nestled in the garage!

    I work in Lincoln, so you'll probably see mine next week if you're anywhere near the capitol complex!

    New Configuration Invites 4/6

    4/6 invite and I'm picking up Saturday 5/5, though I could have done it a week ago if not for needing an out of state pick-up (NE picking up in MO) and having been out of the country.

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    Interesting... I figured since I've had a VIN assigned for a week (res. 4/6, VIN 4/9) I'd give Tesla a call to see the status of my order. I'll be in Africa for about the next two weeks starting Wednesday and would rather not try to arrange a vehicle delivery over satphone. The rep said it was...

    Agreement to Arbitrate

    Invited and configured 4/6, VIN assigned 4/9. No word on delivery timing, but I plan on popping down to KC for that, I think. What's your status?

    Agreement to Arbitrate

    This is what I'll likely do. No need to chance legal shenanigans if they can be easily avoided.

    Agreement to Arbitrate

    For those of you who have taken delivery, have you opted out of the arbitration agreement? From everything I’ve read, whenever it’s possible to do so, you should opt out. An important legal right that is lost by remaining party to this agreement is the ability to join in a class action against...

    Lack of delivery timing flexibility

    Oh, I read it. I'll be picking up out of state since Tesla can't sell directly in Nebraska yet. And the language is "may be made available." If I can't make it within seven days but can within 10, they're going to save money by holding the vehicle. Otherwise, I'll burn through a lot of payroll...

    Lack of delivery timing flexibility

    I don't find the situation credible at all. There is an expectation of reasonable notice. People do have travel and other commitments. I, for one, will be 8500 miles from home during the first couple days of my estimated delivery window, which is currently a three week range. They're going to...

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    That's my config and my day. And I'm also an out of state planning on getting mine in KC, though it won't take me nearly as long to get back as you. Is your VIN near 175xx? I've seen one in NY and one in NJ (collecting in PA) that are the same config and in that VIN-cinity.

    VIN Assignment

    Hello fellow MSM sport! I am now aware of three of us with the same config in the 175xx area. From the spreadsheet, it looks like there's about a 100 VIN range of MSM cars from the mid 17500s to 17600s. I'm an online reservation holder in NE, the other I've encountered was an in-person in PA...

    New Configuration Invites 4/6

    I got mine already on Monday. What's your config? It looks like I ended up in a batch of about 100 MSM cars.

    $7500 EV credit and pickup in another state

    IRS filings are essentially attestations. The 8936 form doesn't care if you execute purchase in your home state or not. Many of us (myself included) will purchase out of state because direct sales are still banned in our home states. Just enter VIN and date the vehicle is placed into service and...

    Very interesting. I wonder if this is how they've been manufacturing or if this is a change since Elon started sleeping at the factory

    New Configuration Invites 4/6

    I'm pretty excited. I just registered with TMC a few minutes ago because I finally have a reason to be on these boards. By chance, I decided to check my status this Friday over lunch. To my complete surprise, I finally had the message I have been waiting for for two years. So Friday night, glass...
