How's your line?

I walked in the Austin store about 30 minutes ago. I got there just as the last person in the line was finishing up; it was much better than at 8:30am this morning. The guy said that there were more than 500 reservations at the Austin store today.

How long were the lines for the Chevy Bolt? Eat your heart out GM -- the Tesla brand has left you eating its dust.

No line at the Columbus, Ohio store when I arrived at 2:30pm ET. In and out in about five minutes. Rep said things were crazy from opening until about 12:30.

Good one Artsci

I hear there were close to 1K people at the Scottsdale, AZ location:

Over 500 at Bellevue, WA.

Took 3 1/2 hours of waiting in the queue to book. Still had a couple of hundred people behind me when I came out. Probably the longest queue in the country.

Here's the line at Burbank at about 1:00 p.m. PST

The password is "NO GAS"

That's CRAZY! I was 5th in line there this morning. Spent the night. There were 350+ people out there when the store opened this morning. It took me all of 60 seconds to get in and out. For that many more people to have showed up is INSANE!

Lines were long in SoCal.

Brea had a 5 to 7 hour wait for some. About 400 in line at 10 AM. Only 3 staff processing until early afternoon.
Buena Park reported about 200 in line at 9 AM. Some of their staff shifted to Brea.
Costa Mesa – Got in line at 10:20 AM. 244th person. 6 staff processing. 120 per hour. 2 hour wait.

Looked like the Apple Store lines, a historic day for Tesla.

Pretty surreal both standing in line today and looking through all the photos of the lines across the country today. Incredible.

Here's a video of the line at UTC San Diego today about 11am. About 500 in line.

Sorry I'm a bad videographer.

I went to the Palo Alto store at lunchtime. I arrived at 12:30 and parked directly in front of the store. There was only one guy ahead of me when I got to the door. I was there less than 10 minutes.

Thanks for posting this! I was planning on reserving online tonight, but I honestly started to worry about a possible crush of traffic and frustrating delays.

So I just stopped by the Palo Alto store (on El Camino, not the one in the Stanford mall). This was around 3pm PST. and there were maybe 3 people in front of me. I got through very quickly. While I was hanging around afterwards, I don't think the line was ever fully empty, but it was still mostly a trickle keeping maybe 1-5 people in line at any given time.

Wow, all I can say is one of the best experiences of my life. I posted a few pictures earlier, but this is actually "on topic". So as far as how our line is, this is the line at the Pasadena store at 9:45am before they opened the doors. Loved interacting with the people around us.

I have not counted the number of people. After we got out, the line was the same size.

Let's be honest, most people that live in Palo Alto that want a Tesla already have one, except for maybe some of the students

At 5:00 pm the Dallas Northpark line was gone. My wife was kind enough to drive down there and make our reservation because I couldn't get away from work for very long today and there were 500 people in line when I went this morning.

Mission Viejo today was nuts. My friend got there at 5am and was 10th, by 10am there was a line across the entire mall. About 3x as long as any iPhone line I have ever seen there. Took til about 12:30pm to get through them all.

Thanks, I was wondering if there would be a line in KC.

No one at Palm Desert, Ca. at 3:00pm. Walked in and ordered one for my husband.

When I arrived at the Indianapolis store at 6 pm there was no line. Sales associate said they had several hundred people earlier in the day. Reservation took about 2 minutes.
