It's probably just me, but since I live in Arkansas, and this state bans Tesla direct sales...
I have to fund my loan for the Model 3, THEN Tesla ships it to me or Dallas SC. (Texas also bands direct sales).
So I pay interest on the loan for 2 - 3 weeks with no vehicle to enjoy. This really frustrates me. I love Tesla, but this departure from the car buying franchise model in which you sign and drive off is really nuts.
When I bought the Model S, I lived in Colorado...much more enjoyable and logical process then.
