Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[T4M3]

I should have prepared better. Do NOT go to the pick up appointment until they've confirmed they inspected the car. If you have to drive a few hours bring overnight gear just in case.

Thanks for sharing this and as you said, always good to check before making the trip to the Tesla pickup center.

Found it in source code, though my EDD got quite tight at 2/17 - 2/23.

Expecting they will send me a text soon, before they update the EDD to the 3 day window. The border may also pose a delay.

Finally and congrats!! I knew it wouldn't be long since our timeframes were so similar. Yeah my account didn't update with any "official" info until the morning they called to schedule delivery (which was 3 days after I found the VIN in source code).

The end is near!

I am one of those customers who put holds and rejected VINs (since I am able to wait and not in a hurry for a new car) and I actually agree that such actions should put you at the end of the line, but Tesla does not do it. You keep your place in the line based on original order date even if you change your config. So that's my story.

But there is also my friend, same city as me, he ordered a Red/Black M3LR back on Sep 28, no holds, no VIN rejections, and he will get his car Feb 28. When he first ordered the car, EDD was December. So this shows that Tesla's delivery is like a lottery based on location and configuration. The holds and rejections are just other factors but looks like not the major ones.

I would actually PREFER to go to the back of the line, and if given a choice when my hold comes off I would happily go there.

Does anyone know how often tesla updates VIN/Delivery dates? Once a day? Once a week?

Based on a YouTube provider, Tesla updates data x2 daily at 6 am & 6 pm ET.

That may be the case for updating the EDD range, but VIN assignments are not always at set specific times. I received one in the middle of the day on a previous order.

Well it finally happened !! Car was dropped off at my place today. Car is perfect besides some adhesive on parts of the black trim. Very strange how it went down tho. I got a text at 12 saying my car was being delivered and then got a second text 2 min later saying my car had arrived. So I run down to check and sure enough the car is there but there was no one there with the car. Nevertheless im super happy with the car. Good luck to everone still waiting

Congrats!!! Where did you pick up? I’m in Los Angeles as well and trying to figure out the best location for pick up. I’ve heard some horror stories.

We ordered the same car, and almost at the same time

Anyone who has picked up and plans on using a 14-50 for charging, has anyone found the adapters in stock at the dealership? I am having trouble finding one and refuse to pay the extreme markup some are charging. Thinking of just getting a 14-50 to 6-50 welder adapter and getting the 6-50 cable from tesla.

We have them in-stock here in Minneapolis. If you get in a pinch let me know, would be happy to mail one out to you.

 

[goinelectric]

really stoked for you! The red looks great!!

thanks :-D My new 4-wheeled friend is at the car "spa" to protect that lovely red. PPF on the nose, ceramic coating, and mud flaps.

I'm going place M3P today, Does M3P come with the Key Fob>

​

No new Tesla's come with key fobs. Just two credit card keys and you use the phone app as your main key.
