Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

[Teleezen]

Welp took delivery of the car today:

• It was a bit dirty
• There were smudges on the interior that look like they'll come out with a nice detailing
• One of the trunk lift hydraulics was missing the rubber housing
• They don't really seem interested in walking the car with you for imperfections and panel gaps, they just tell you that you have 3-days to schedule free service
• Car didn't need calibrating for Autopilot ( but strangely only had 11 miles on the odometer)
• No Matrix
• Yes Ryzen
• VIN 237XXX
• Car Drives like a weightless little spaceship

Overall I'm not thrilled with the waiting/delivery experience with this car. The car is incredible, however. Was it worth the wait, yes, however I don't feel like a valued customer

Should just wait for the delivery text - has your EDD changed along with these changes, or have you just been checking with SA?

My EDD still shows 6/4-6/8. She said the system hasn’t caught up yet.

I see you got out of the ECU issue. Beautiful car regardless. I’m wondering when the later FL folks of April will see their day. I’m reaching for an August delivery. Perfect time to take it for college trips.

When naming a car:
1. Choose something that is meaningful to you.
2. Don't copy someone else's name just because it "sounds cool".
3. A story to go with the name is what's cool
4. Never name a car before you have it. It's bad luck.
5. Have fun!

I decided on an Homage to my all-time favorite band RUSH and named the car ROCINANTE from the song Cygnus X-1 from Farewell to Kings. Yeah, I was in High School in the good ole 80’s.

So wait a minute, they sell you a $60k car without a way to charge it???

I'm purchasing the wall connector as I have a 240 line ran, but was going to keep the mobile connector in the car for road trips. You're saying I gotta buy both!?!

They’re using the Apple excuse. Why supply something you might already have or can use a SuperCharger.
Naturally, everyone has a Tesla charger lying around and a SuperCharger on every street corner

Was this at Eatonville?

Yeah it's not a great move to squeeze 200$ out of someone spending 60k.

 

[Mwhusa]

My M3 left Fremont on 5/19 and was scheduled to arrive Eatonville on 6/4. Transit delays (numerous) now show 6/13.

Hey guys, What's the difference between the Mobile Connector and the Corded Mobile Connector. Both sell for $200 and of course both are out of stock.

Mobile connector has interchangeable plugs you can buy for various outlets and max charge rate of 32A.

Corded mobile connector only has a fixed 14-50 plug and max charge rate of 40A.

So, my two week starts tomorrow. I've never actually hit the first day of any of my windows (e.g. if the window was 5/25 - 6/28, it was always pushed back before I got to 5/25). Tomorrow is the first time I'll ever actually be inside my window, so just wondering, is that indicative that I'm getting close? Anyone else experienced this phenomenon? (Can people give me any reason to be hopefully and get a normal amount of sleep at night).

 

[Hiline]

Questions to those of you who have taken delivery. I noticed that some of you found issues with your vehicle and scheduled some sort of service. Is this different from other types of service appointment? What if you notice further issues later? Will Tesla fix them for free?

You'll get a new EDD on the second day of your window. So, it's likely that on June 2, you'll get a new EDD window.
I'm on my 4th two-week (or less) EDD. I've made it to day 2 on all of them and at 5am, I get a new EDD.
So for me, I'm expecting a new EDD tomorrow morning at 5am.

Please let tomorrow be the day that T-J finally receives that elusive VIN

Breaking rule #4, I might just name mine TJ….’Totally Justified’

All of you are amazing and ridiculous! I can’t thank you enough for making this wait a little less stressful and a lot more entertaining.

As much as I want to graduate, I’ll still be here to help others keep the faith.
