I guess we have to throw that idea out then! Unless you’re okay with opening and shutting that door every time. It makes me reconsider purchasing as well. The only other feature I liked was the in app dashboard so that I can mount my phone in between the steering wheel and the dash.

Yeah, definitely not opening the bloody door every time
I can just go back to plan A and use one of the buttons

I can see the excavators but more importantly - where are the forklifts??
On the accessories front, I only bought the gen 3 charger before I got the car. Since I’ve had it, I still haven’t bought anything as I can actually see no need.
What I did find is that I believe the 235/35s on the 9” uberturbines are too stretched, and also the car sits way too high.
So I’ve bought a set of H&R springs and when the tyres are worn will replace them with 255/35s which should give a total drop of 22mm

Very risky anyway - you don’t want to withdraw the cash only to get held up on the way to the other bank.Its an online only bank, so physically withdrawing _is_ bank transfer. Also, its in my offset so the aim really is to keep it in that account until the last possible minute.
But its all good, I'm sure I'll get four or five days notice for one of the available pickup slots
Put your phone on landscape and you'll see everyone's details in their "signature" - Variant, Trim, OD, EDD, VIN...
On the topic of charging and such, people need to understand that the UMC is more than enough for your charging need if you commute around 60-70kms a day. Most people get home by 6 latest 7pm and leave by 5.30-6am worst case scenario if you charge at 7pm and unplug at 5.30am you charged the car for approximately 10hours at 10km/h thats 100kms of range.
The issue is people will say oh my off peak charges doesnt kick in till 10pm or 11pm .in this case dont be a tight ass to save those extra cents between peak to off peak . Remember u were coming for ice car that cost u 2.20c/L .and the full charge for a rwd from 0% to 100%at 0.35c/kwh on 60kwh will be $21 that gives u 380km of real world range
Compared to a car that has a fuel tank of 50lx 2.20=$110. So you see the savings in here. So no need to upgrade ur house to 3 phase or such. If u need more charging speed get a 32a single phase socket installed and u will get about 30 to 40 km/h which is capable of charging ur battery to 100% every night. Dont over think it.

Exactly, I’m a week or so behind you, and this latest shutdown is a pain, considering alot of the orders after us are currently on the water! Tesla production may be fast but it doesn’t seem fair.Must admit I've lost the will to keep checking now, feels like my RWD which I was originally expecting this month is never going to arrive
Meanwhile my mate who ordered on the same day and seems totally indifferent as to when he gets it will have his in a couple of weeks
Anybody know why Tesla seeming have gone back to the 3D5 motor?
Just looking at my Vin LRW3F7FRxxxxxxxxx and I'm perplexed why the 8th digit isn't a "S"..
My understanding was that they all went to the newer hairpin motor as of 22?
It better bloody still be able to hit the advertised acceleration
Did other RWD owners this batch (and the last) get the same "R" 8th digit?

I'm feeling the same...when the VINs started appearing I was checking a few times every day....but now I just hope to see my white/black RWD in the next quarter. I actually hired a M3 RWD for a day through EVEE, thinking it might ease the wait....we had a great day driving it, but it just made me want my own one sooner.Must admit I've lost the will to keep checking now, feels like my RWD which I was originally expecting this month is never going to arrive

That's pretty much sold me! Thanks for the insight. Info like this is exactly why I joined this forum... I also know a bit about ships and novated leasing too now
Out of everything you have purchased which one are you most excited about installing, attaching, plugging in etc?I’m pushing $25k on bits, still don’t have a car
Good question!
I’ll just be happy to finally have my beloved model 3, after an agonising 8 month long wait
The Tesla puddle lights and the anodized Tesla tube caps.
