East-coast invite. Non Employee , Model X owner

[dhelmly]

Just got the invite for my Son's Model 3 . We are located east-coast in Annapolis MD. Model X Owner - non employee.

if we, say lived in PA, but borrowed your address... would ours come faster? We are in MD a lot anyway, and it's the closest service center as well!

PA ones come with CA temp tags anyway, we then have to go to PennDOT and take 2 hours to explain what a "tesla" is to register it...

Same here I got mine today. New MS owner, took delivery on 12/26. Non employee as well but I was on line at the Short Hills Mall NJ showroom location back on 3/2016. I live in NJ.

Same - Model S owner - Knoxville TN (April 1st reservation, so not quite day 1).

 

[atechsnob]

I got one today as well Model S owner in MD took delivery in 12/15

Another one in Maryland. I got mine today. Day 1 reservation (online). Model S owner for a little over two years.

So did they skip the middle of the country? Only east coast invites?

I am not expecting one as I am not a current owner, but would like to see more Ohio people get it so I can see it in person.

Edit: I see there is a Tennessee one, so that is more middle. But what about Kansas, or Nebraska, or Iowa?

 

[insaneoctane]

My guess is that Tesla feels that they've saturated the CA delivery channels

Good question, where is the thread for Colorado or Washington state (West coast outside of California)

Edit nevermind see 12-28-17 New Invite / Configuring / Delivery Spreadsheet and Tesla owner configurations begin

Owners from Washington ST to Illinois to Delaware are all getting invites, looks like the entire lower 48 is open to configure (prior Tesla owners only so far)

I saw some folks from New England post on Facebook that they also got their invites today.

 

[BoldSharpe]

I'm in Wisconsin, current Model S owner, and day one online reservation holder and received the configuration email today. Several others in our Wisconsin Tesla Facebook group also received an invitation to configure.

This is a great point; as production bottlenecks ease, delivery capacity in particular service centers may well become the next bottleneck. That could create some pretty wild variances in actual delivery timing/geography vs what a straight model predicts based on deposit date/time/location.
Granted, all of this drama will subside rapidly once significant volume is flowing from the factory. Similar to how the threads for photos from 3s in the wild is by now old news, soon along with VINs in the wild.

Same here, Maryland model S owner. I reserved at the showroom the day of the reveal (about 2:30 pm, no line!).
I ordered a red LR.

 

[GadgetGeek407]

Florida reservation made 3/31/16, was a MS owner but sold it, does that still keep me as an owner? Estimator shows Feb-April. I have two, will probably do one now and the other at the end of the year hoping to get performance.

 

[JPUConn]

S owner and day one pre reveal 2x reservation in CT.

I’d imagine they are just shipping a variety of color/wheels and will assign vins after (vs build to order like S/X) to enable 4 week delivery on the east coast.

I’m waiting for standard battery non premium followed by awd for the 2nd one

Anyone in PA that is an owner got their Model 3 invitation?

How is MD the closest service center when you live in PA? How about the SC in Devon, PA?
