OMG.
Ok, so, if anyone else is like me, and checking the app for updates every 6 seconds (3 when I'm not busy)...

WHY hasn't anyone made an app that auto checks hourly or every 2-4 hours or something, and updates ME, automatically?

My thumbs just can't take this! My trade in expires Nov3, I assume at midnight PST?
They did. It’s called “service delivery will contact you via text to schedule delivery”. But where’s the “fun” in that 😉
 
I went with FCCU as well and got the 3.99%. Been a rush job though. Found out late Wednesday that I needed to pick up this Saturday. Spent all day yesterday and today bird dogging the process. FCCU says that the wire transfer has gone thru as of 3pm eastern but Tesla is wanting a wire receipt before i can pick up tomorrow. It is getting close to quiting time on the east coast and still have not gotten the wire receipt…ugh
Anyone know what the advertised rate was in October? Currently showing 4.49%. Also anyone know if they still offer 1 % discount for new members in the month of November ?

I was reading a thread (can’t remember if it was here or on Reddit) that VIN assignment is a batch job that occurs each day at 4 AM PT/7 AM ET on the day your vehicle is built or very soon before/after. This lines up with when I got my email. So if you wake up without an email or text, probably not getting a VIN that day.

Not sure the cadence of EDD updates. That seems to be more sporadic.
I got my VIN at 5PM EST the other day.
 
Yea, we are talking about joining the Yacht club at the harbor down the street from our house. Our neighbor across the street who has a boat says the slip fees are doubling for next year. Also he told me yesterday his radar, anchor system and his dinghy motor in the past two weeks. Eeks. :oops:

Where you are at, at what amount of hours annually does it make to sense to swithc from renting to yacht club to boat ownership? It perhaps also depends a lot on what kind of boat you want (or if you want to use different kind of boat at different times)? I myself could see myself boating a few times a year in which case a chartered one or boat taxi seems best (and I have no desire for overnight stays/trips).
 
Welcomed “Chucky” to the family yesterday! 😎

2023 Ultra Red/Black Model X LR 5-Seater “Tax Credit Build”. 💰

*** Ordered 9/4 - VIN 10/17 - Delivered 11/3 ***

So different, yet so familiar compared to my original 2018 Model 3 LR RWD and my current 2019 Performance 3. 👌🏻

Super solid, quiet, and comfortable… loving the smooth adaptive suspension…. HW4, the new cameras and the latest Matrix LED Headlights are all pretty sweet too, but the stalk-less wheel and automatic open/close doors will take some getting used to. 😬

Doesn’t hit off the line quite as hards as the Performance 3, but pulls so hard and keeps on at rolling speeds. Believe it actually runs a quicker 1/4 mile too, which is impressive at nearly 1,000lbs heavier. 🚀

PAINT ISSUES: 2 or 3 heavy/drip spots at the ends of fender and door, one little edge nick. - Noted at delivery to be taken care of soon.

NO OTHER ISSUES NOTED.... YET 🤞
