Absolutely, most of the people in this thread are likely potential BETAs; testers, just it isn't worth it for the asking price. Maybe EAP possibly. I'd pony up just for the lane change feature If they'd do a standalone.

Yes I agree some people like that wank*r “serial Autopilot abuser” Param Sharma is not helping matters. I’ve watched a lot of videos and it’s improving in leaps and bounds but still has a way to go. Of course it’s fun driving yourself , and can’t wait to drive mine

I am really new to this. I’m hoping someone can shed some light on some questions. My order date for a long range 3 was 14/3/22. How long do you think I still have to wait? How do I actually post a question without replying to someone else’s message?
Hi @Cath64,
Welcome to the forum.
Its very likely that your Long Rang Model 3 is on one of the 5 ships that have arrived in Australia recently, so your wait is likely nearly over. Some indication that your car is arriving is a request in your Tesla app to accept the change to “Vision only” Autopilot, a Vehicle Identification Number appearing in your Tesla account and later an invoice for final payment.
This thread has more information on how to identify a hidden VIN as well.
To post a message, go to the bottom of the relevant page and you will see the reply box Similar to below.
There's also an argument that they would deliver the LR and P models first because they get more cash from the premium models and so helps to look better from a revenue perspective for the quarter.
Maybe just wishful thinking on my part!
Saddle up for melb sms this week!Euphony just left Port Kembla with 0.6 m less draught

In addition to the functionality and features of Autopilot, Enhanced Autopilot also includes:- Navigate on Autopilot: Actively guides your car from a highway’s on-ramp to off-ramp, including suggesting lane changes, navigating interchanges, automatically engaging the turn signal and taking the correct exit.
- Auto Lane Change: Assists in moving to an adjacent lane on the highway when Autosteer is engaged.

- Upcoming:
- Autosteer on city streets
With a note that the videos they have on it say Auto Pilot is for on ramp to off ramp.
You’ve ordered exactly a month after me. If everything goes to planned you might get yours a month after i get mine. But once you get a edd range ie 17-31 aug, Thats when you’ll get super excited, vin may get to you early next month
Seeing as it's nearly all LR & P of late hope we'll see the Feb/March RWDs next - hopefully we will not all get bumped to Q4

You need to take into consideration that Tesla massively under-delivered LR & P cars in Q1, next to none in Q2, and so the VINs we are seeing now are just an attempt to catch up on backlog. Go back to say page 40 or 50 of this thread and have look at the number of people on here in Feb-March who missed out on LR and P orders.
Thanks for this but what was this for? I already know what they are, I wasn't asking for the definition
To be perfectly honest, when I ordered, I thought an entry model (RWD) might be quite obtainable.
Definitely more so than a model that wasn’t even offered for sale yet (Model Y).
Not that I would even want to begrudge anyone from getting their car, but I really hope we do not have five ships full of Ys.

Impossible to tell. It happens somewhere between upon VIN assignment the customer cancelling the order until around the week before delivery where Tesla will call you wanting to know when you're going to make final payment. It's that last call that forces the issue.
@Zigman This is a FANTASTIC idea! Why didn't @Roat and I think of this...?
...ohh that's bad news. Right lads, lassies our Ormaus needs kitty a lot more than we do, looks like.
Alas, new information has come to light @Mal Cartwright. Ormaus is way too important to this thread/forum to risk being homeless! We need to call a truce right away.Awww...there's a good kitty, hope he's all happy and well now.
Right everyone! This story arc is over - it's back to monitoring the VIN barometer for incoming VIN storms, ship tracking, drone fly-over watching @Silver Xu domestic China delivery watching, accessory & wall charger watching, @dogstarlady's and @RobM3MY blue nails watching, @Magnatron, @Blaq and @Dann123 drag watching (you guys make sure you send @*Sparkles* them photos), who's the best insurance/finance watching and of course...multi-coloured forklift watching. Actually, where the heck is @Hoopyfrood should we put up an amber alert for him? He went MIA monitoring forklifts - or is he actually already organising mad-max style forklift derby thunderdome racing?
P.S. Maybe I should simply beg @rtvanda to come out of retirement and book me in for a session.
(Edit, honourable mentions.)
