Oops, I just noticed this didn’t work I’ll try again.Huge congrats to all the VIN recipients from the last 48hrs - great to see. Happy Birthday to those who celebrate this weekend, especially @Ormaus
Long-time listener, now kindly seeking feedback/thoughts:
28 Feb order for the stock standard RWD White/Black.
In NSW the standard issue/Tesla included Number Plates are slim White with Black characters.
Do you assess these best compliment the White RWD, OR better to stump up the extra $$ for the Black with White characters?
(This would be a similar look to Victorian 'Slimline Black' style)
Appreciate this is all very much personal preference (and likely no big deal for many), but good to get thoughts on plate matching body colour etc.
My view is a balance somewhere between discretely different and stock standard/same same.
Do they have endless discussions about panel gaps and paint quality, or is it always 'within spec'?It's funny over on the forklift forums they are in constant speculation too, regarding whether their forklift will arrive this quarter or if the sudden increase in drought of the ship indicates just more teslas disappointingly
With post shipping delays around 2 to 20 days,... gives us one constraintAnybody have the latest shipping schedule and guessing what boat these latest VINs are on?
23-Sep is my birthday, I’d be happy with that.With post shipping delays around 2 to 20 days,... gives us one contraint
The post build delays (prep for sea travel) est 2 days + build date will give us another constraint.
So:
Example: My Delivery Window is 24 Aug to 2 Sep
- [Build Date] + 2 days = earliest the car can be on a vessel.
- [Vessel Arrival (Port Kembla) Date] + 2 to 20 days = delivery window
In the absence of a Build Date (yet) I will say its 15/07/2022 - so earliest it is ready for a vessel would be 17/07/2022 therefore Viking Passama, Morning Crystal, Morning Clara (round 2) and Paganella are possible but Morning Clara (round 1) isnt.
Viking Passama arrives PK 8/8 + 2 to 20 days = 10 Aug to 28 Aug - possible but not really a match for my delivery window
Morning Crystal arrives PK 13/8 + 2 to 20 days = 15 Aug to 2 Sep - much more likely match for my delivery window
Paglia arrives PK 3/9 + 2 to 20 days = 5 Sep to 23 Sep - outside my delivery window
and so on for the later vessels that arrive at PK later.
So for me just using simple calcs and estimates from others who have watched delivery delays etc, I'd take a guess at Morning Crystal for my vessel with a possibility of Viking Passama.
Of course if you dont want to guess I think you can find out a lot more from @Vedaprime
on first read, I thought you were inviting us all over to yours!Oops, I just noticed this didn’t work I’ll try again.

Within spec like this?Do they have endless discussions about panel gaps and paint quality, or is it always 'within spec'?
It does seem like they switched to dual motor for the last dash before shutdown. Looks like us RWD folk are going to be waiting for Q4 deliveries. Hot damn it burns.By special request - just the RWDs that have VINs (that I have recorded) - will do the full VIN update later tonight

Congrats @Ormaus and thanks for all your hard work. Also, lend me your cat.App
12:30 No VIN - no change
12:55 "Tesla is making changes that impact your order. Review details in your Tesla Account before proceeding."
12:56 Cat walks across desk/keyboard/face and obscures the computer and phone.
12:57 Cat removed
12:58 relogin to Tesla site
12:59 Cat returns and sits in front of face/keyboard/screen/on phone
12:59:30 Cat is now outside
1:00 Tesla Vision acceptance.
1:00:05 VIN finder pops up before page even refreshes.
Interesting I didnt get a range change notice even though I'm a LR
Also final total is about $2k less than before - tax change? Not complaining
Oh 1:03 Cat squeeking (yes strange cat) outside the window to be let in *sigh*
Waiting and waiting here for my feb order. At least now i can relate that theres someone in here with feb order. Stay strong mateWhen are we going to get done RWD Feb order vin love..?
Just relax. Everyone here was about to burn Tesla to the ground to weeks ago and now there’s this wave of VINs.Hot damn it burns.
I wouldn't think Q4 is the case, two days of RWD and they'll fill the order for Q2It does seem like they switched to dual motor for the last dash before shutdown. Looks like us RWD folk are going to be waiting for Q4 deliveries. Hot damn it burns.
I just unpuckered on behalf of you. Tonight is your night @Hoopyfrood, enjoy!VINNNNNNNNNNNNN
Oh my gosh. What a god damn relief!
Happy Birthday!All good. Am painting a door this weekend. 1 coat undercoat side 1, wait 2 hours, 1 coat undercoat side 2, wait 2 hours, 1 coat white paint side 1, wait 2 hours, etc 2 coats with lots of 2 hours to do other things like forums.
VINs for everyone was a nice thing to get on my birthday
I can't handle this emotional rollercoaster. I feel like Hudson in Aliens. (Apologies for the blatant Gen X reference)Just relax. Everyone here was about to burn Tesla to the ground to weeks ago and now there’s this wave of VINs.
