Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

Great news, T-J! We were all pulling for you and the Pearl looks beautiful.

Today, I got another update on my own "pearl" (black on black, though):

"...your Model 3 has just departed from our factory and is in transit to your delivery center! Be on the lookout for a message within the next week to schedule your delivery appointment. When you receive that message, be sure to schedule as soon as possible, as appointments fill up quickly. Reply to this message if you need assistance."

This is for a car ordered back on 27 March and slated to be delivered 6/19-6/23 in MD, so I'm starting to pick up my prep pace. Got insurance taken care of, now I need to switch from "cash" to finance and get the proper MVPA.
 
We've had a few Jersey users say it was exactly two weeks for them so I would think yours would be a little faster than that. My car will go by rail to Birmingham and that's only seven hours from my delivery center so I can't see it being too much longer for me.
I thought that too, given the distance between Birmingham and Eatonville. My car left on 5/19 and it’s still not at the SC yet (cause I drove by there today to see 😜).
 
Ok, the post you've all been waiting for....
TJ has graduated!!!!
Picked up this morning at 10am without any issues. Car looks spotless. I signed my registration paperwork and was on my way. SA was very nice and reminded me of the 24hrs to let them know about anything and to be as picky as I want.
My only complaint is that the A/C seems to take a bit to get the heat out of the car. It's only about 100 degrees right now, so I'm hoping it can keep up when it's over 110.
Matrix lights. Double pane glass.
Everyone, please meet, the Black Pearl:
Congrats T-J, Black Pearl looks flawless !! 🥳🥳 ... I'm sure the stress and headaches of your thirteen EDDs are worth it at the end haha.

Although I have ordered Model 3 LR, but I am still hesitant between model 3 LR and model Y.

Can you guys share why you chose to buy model 3 over model Y? Just wanted to gain more confidence on my choice. Thanks!
I plan on trading it in for a cybertruck in a few years. Will use the model 3 to learn about EVs in preparation and not have to suffer with skyrocketing gas prices.
 
would it be likely that i get my car before the 17?
Honestly, I couldn't say. We love to speculate here but for the most part, it's nothing more than educated guesses based on what we've seen from a small sample size. Did you get the text about your car leaving the factory? It seems two weeks from that date is the best you can use to estimate actual delivery.
 
FYI, when I left the SC today, they had TWO trucks offloading cars for deliveries. AZ is getting a lot of love!
Also, the Pearl is juicing up for the first time.
