Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[jacksyd2022]

So i am uber nerding in the source code and all the order page wordings are actually all there for all circumstances as templates.

So i don't think it's a "new wording". I think it's related to where your order is up to and a variable sets it.

The old one ("based on order date, profile submission, delivery location" yadda yadda) is still in the code as the "defaultDateTime" message.

The new one ("update based on configuration availability" yadda yadda) is there as "estimatedDeliveryTiming".

There's also:

"EstimatedDeliveryDates" consisting of ##date1## and ##date2##.

"estimatedDeliveryTBD": self explanatory.

"estimatedDeliveryTimingBlank": "Delivery timing will be available soon".

"estimatedDeliveryTimingWithVin": "We will reach out to schedule your delivery soon"

"estimatedDeliveryWeeksFromOrderPlaced": "##date1## and ##date2## from Order placed date". Our old friend for most of the year.

"notifyArrived": "We will notify you when your car has arrived at your delivery location"

And a few others but i am sick of typing this now and you likely take my point.

Are u in IT hoopyfrood?

I looked at a EV6 in the flesh yesterday, and geez its a lot bigger than expected. Such a nice looking car, super comfy too. But the wait times and price are crazy expensive.

Actually my whole life i have seen concept cars vs the mundane mass market version and thought "whyyyyyy won't you release them! At least some design elements!". Now they kind of are and i'm here for it.

 

[Hoopyfrood]

Yep. Not exactly 'traditional' IT, however. Prefer not to doxx myself though.

I’ve been doing web development for over 2 decades. The approach Tesla web devs take, to including words used on their site as variables, is not unusual for an operation where different words would be necessary for different regions.

A web developer changing the words embedded in HTML vs a backend system defining the words used, is most certainly nothing to really get excited about. Given different jurisdictions would have vastly different systems for car registrations, consumer law, etc. it would be nuts for the site to be “hard coded”

 

[Hot_Since_77]

So will that be deducted from the total you owe?

I believe so.

Last night an Ioniq 5 drove past me on a dark road. The light signature is amazing, both front and rear - there's no way it could be mistaken for anything else.

The Kia's styling doesn’t do it for me. I don’t think it will date well, but the Ioniq is brilliant.

wait till u have it so you dont pay tax on it.

Is this something to do with rebates or am I missing something here? I've been considering adding this and $~4.5K beats $5K

Yeah i agree it proves nothing without comparing to a couple of weeks ago. But the old words still being there and the latest release being 7th July indicates they anticipate the need for them later down the track or use them in some other capacity.

I doubt a system so massive would be cool with leaving defunct values in there as a dumping ground. Plus there are only about 10 of them there (none of them being the US wording) and they each have a very specific use, which further backs up they are there for a reason.

But that reason could be compatibility or them not being sure all instances have been replaced, sure.

So it may not be a global replacement of words is all. Just another one of the pre-defined templates.

Take a copy of the current source code?

Then you could compare future iterations to that copy.

 

[amudholkar]

Was your order also a RWD/ Midnight silver- black interior?

Yes correct

Was doing something similar with Curl and a few grep cmds to clean things up.

I hate jsons...

Perth is definitely the centre of todays VIN allocations!

Yeah and I'm feeling left out

 

[bharathk]

I think Perth cars are loaded first as they offloaded late in port Kembla . May be other states could be coming tomorrow when they loading into Morning Clara

 

[javataco]

[Maximillan]

Yes correct

Sorry to hear that, you're the 3rd example in 2 days of people on here noticing that people with later order dates but having identical configs and delivery cities getting their VINs allocated. The "queue" is not the same as what any reasonable person would expect.

 

[Centrals]

Today was a good day! We saw a lot of VIN allocations for a lot of people on this forum throughout all the specs.

Hoping for the same or similar response from Tesla tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Definitely good for group morale.

Definitely good for group morale.

Agree! It feels like the process is marching on, especially for our long suffering December gang. As a February, I retain a hefty weight of skepticism about my own prospects of imminent delivery.

But that’s OK and as others have pointed out, it’s a minor problem in the spectrum of things.
