What do you guys think of starting the event with a Falcon Heavy Launch once FSD is active? That way we'd have a starting place and a starting date depending on launch windows. Then, we could coordinate events.... New Orleans...., Austin... Vegas.... then end at the boring tunnel in LA. I can plan the Austin party, maybe get Willie Nelson to show up. I don't know..... just some thoughts.
Get off work??? By the time FSD is finally released you will be retired already!!! This will happen SOON, VERY SOON. I AM EXPECTING MY MODEL S 75D WITH AP2 TO HAVE THE FSD BE READY FOR DOWNLOAD ANY DAY NOW. When we do get that download I am ready to start. I plan to us any of the new San Diego Superchargers that works for me to charge up to 100%, drive to Ocean Beach so I can touch my foot in the Pacific Ocean, then head east on I-8 to I-10 at Casa Grande, AZ, then I-10 east all the way to Jacksonville Beach, FL, where I will once again touch my food in the Atlantic Ocean. Trip done. Next I will head down to Key West, FL where I will find the Southernmost spot I can find, then start my trek north up I-95 and beyond to get to the Northernmost spot on the Maine coast. Next I will head west on the Northernmost route to the Pacific again in Washington, as close to Canada as I can get before heading south on I-5 back down to the Mexican Border at San Diego. Now, that will be the trip of a lifetime.
FWIW, My P3D is still pending, seemingly they have not yet produced them with the black interior. Her nam has been changed to Cerisinha ("little Cerise" in Portuguese). There is also a possibilty that the trans-Canada part fo the trip might change for the official Eastern terminus of St. John's, NF https://transcanadahighway.com/Newfoundland/StJohns.asp Whether the entire trip can all happen this years depends on how soon Cerisinha makes her appearance. Now that Free Supercharging has happened the trip will be a trifle cheaper.
When you get to Key West, consider staying at one of the two restored bungalows at the Southernmost Beach Resort. Each bungalow has a handful of rooms, a private chef and an on-premises concierge. Nice and quiet at the end of Duval Street but an easy walk into the craziness if your timing and sense of adventure are aligned. There’s more, but you get the idea. You won’t need to worry about charging although there are local options, since the last SC is at Marathon Key.
I've been lead to believe my black interior P3D was built well over a week ago and is in Denver awaiting a truck that can bring it my way. Either that or I've already paid in full for vaporware
Who led you to believe that? Please tell me it was official Tesla communication with VIN attached. If so you might be the first one, maybe even good leading indication for the demise of the sad thread about P3D with black interior! P3D with Performance Upgrade and Black Interior status
This was emailed to me on July 26: "My name is Mai, and I will be your point of contact from now until delivery of your amazing Model 3. You now have a VIN, (which is in your attached estimated purchase agreement)! This means that your car is built, and we are ready start discussing delivery! Please look over this email and the related documents carefully before we proceed!" I paid it off last week and there was a time when it showed online that my car for was ready for pick-up in Littleton, CO on August 3 despite my waiting for home delivery. I was told that was for internal use to know that the car needed prepping. I presumable am waiting for a truck to drop it in Wyoming. Haven't been following any threads, so I wasn't aware that this was the start of something new. I stood in line in Santa Barbara on March 31st.
What color is the exterior? We were at the SC on Saturday and again on Monday and saw several performance Model 3s in the lot. Maybe one of them was yours...
