    Wow. Just Wow. Congrats to all involved and all the best to you, @Graniteds. May you have many miles to go (in your Model 3) before you sleep.

    This is just one of the many reasons I love Tesla and the Tesla community. Faith in humanity restored!

    I knew there was a reason a little voice in my head kept telling me to use Bonnie's referral code 3 times =)

    I thought I was going bonkers.

    Is he going down in history as the first non employee to take delivery of a Model 3?

    As others have already stated, with so much hate being on full blast in today's society, this was definitely a bright spot in my day!

    Et al

    This is an example of the employees, investors and owners (soon 2B also). It is who you are and what you are made of. . .

    @Graniteds ~ Thank you for the opportunity.

    Thank you all

    Frank's on KTVU Channel 2/Oakland. KTVU has a great mobile app BTW and I watch this station a lot. If Graniteds is up to it I'd love to see Frank interview him. His smile lit up my day and you can tell he really appreciated what everyone did for him. Sending hugs his way. Enjoy!


    I see that the KTVU app website has the story posted as of 3:18pm. Don't know if they did a live story on air but will try checking out tonight.

    I don’t know how to get this message to Graniteds, but if any one does I would encourage him to get and read the book “Vernon’s Dance With Cancer” - a friend of mine was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer, given six months to live in March of this year, sold everything he had - today he looks healthier than most and tells me doctors say he is cancer free - he claims it was the information in that book that helped him - I read it, simple and cheap - nothing to lose -

    A lot to lose -- chasing snake oil instead of being out enjoying his time left, Model 3 and everything else he enjoys.
