Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

[Dan4]

I made a checklist using everyday chris check list and the github one. This should be the ultimate checklist for highland pickup. I can share if anyone is interested.

Please share. I might use it soon

yeah, i thought about that, but tbh it doesn't feel fair to the original list creator @everydaychris... he spent a bunch of time compiling the list and was kind enough to provide an unformatted version for free, so undercutting his paid version with my formatted one feels wrong.

unless he pops in here to give his blessing (in which case i'm happy to share it), i recommend either paying for his version or formatting your own

No worries, I didn’t realize he had a paid version that was cleanly formatted. I happily paid the five bucks.

Update for all east coast day one orders, train made it to NJ and trucking to MA expected early to mid next week. If wondering SA can ping the car location in their system.

serious...all? nice... mine 6/11-6/17 in NJ. i think theres a rail unloading place 5 mins from me.

@ashegam Have you received a VIN? Tracker says so. I’m also in NC, so to see someone else finally get a VIN in NC is exciting. Please say yes lol

I have not and it wasn't me, fixed. Some mofo must of been dancing with Mary Jane or chilin with her other friend Molly.

For my two previous Tesla orders, it was always “West coast prioritized beginning of quarter, then everyone else in the middle of Q, then West Coast again at EOQ”.

This one is interesting though as we are a month away from EOQ and they are obviously prioritizing all West Coast orders now. That said, I have to think (sadly in my case) that other regions really won’t be prioritized until middle-ish next quarter. Which makes sense why so many were bumped to July/August dates recently.

Also never thought I would say this but insane mode is almost too insane, the car is almost snappy..I might try standard, something I never thought I would say or do...

My coworker just got his VIN. 4/23 NC vins should be rolling in today. He has Red/Black.

All these VINs got me excited... Crossing my fingers for 4/24 blue/black VINs in Texas... Big bucks big bucks no whammies...

“West coast prioritized beginning of quarter, then everyone else in the middle of Q, then West Coast again at EOQ”.

And I wonder how many sales they lose this way? Maybe the $250 holds a lot of people into their choice. I would imagine the West Coast has the highest concentration of Tesla orders when factoring in population and target market.

About using summer tires in cold temps, like below 40 or 30 Fahrenheit...
I have read where people are saying it's fine, but you won't have as much traction for acceleration. There is also less traction for stopping and swerving! The feel of my Michelin PS4s in 35-40 degrees feels like a bad idea to me. It was similar for some P-Zeros I had years ago. Make your on decisions, but please consider that your ability to avoid accidents will be lessened.

He'll know when he actually needs to do an emergency braking.

Just dropping a note here on the link shared for the document for everydaychris' delivery checklist. I dont have any issue at all with what was currently shared



Just as a side note, @everydaychris has an account here and although I dont know how active he is now, has been an active member here in the past. he would probably be happy to hear that people are finding his delivery checklist helpful.

(tagging him so he sees, next time he logs in here).

This is helpful and overkill at the same time. I can't tell if I’m turned on or turned off. He suggests using your finger to measure panel gaps, but it would be so much more entertaining to see someone pull out a protractor.

The list of things to bring is the most helpful part.

It also said (not confident) next to the date. So fingers crossed we get it this weekend. Was kinda weird.

It's also insane how much power they have over the cars. He was showing me how he could unlock all the different cars in the area.

I guess that’s good if you lose your key card and phone, but WTF. It sounds like all it would take is for one shady person working at the dealership to go on a shopping spree.

Just got my VIN! 4/27 order, white/black, Denver. EDD June 13-19.

oh hell ya, just what I needed to hear to start the weekend. thanks for sharing.

Now we’re talking! Let the next round of waiting begin….

My experience with PPF has been really good. Living in Chicago, it only takes about 5 mins of driving around to see half a dozen cars with “bumper acne” (chipped paint from assholes who parallel park by going until they hit the cars in front of and behind them aka “braille parking”). I’ve had PPF on both bumpers and the front 1/3 of my hood for the past 10 years and it looks awesome still. Only 2 punctures from rocks and no serious discoloration around them.
To each their own, but beware that ceramic won’t protect you from Stevie Wonder parallel parking by ya.

Does anyone know the logic behind this info? I reload this page multiple times a day, so it is odd to me that a 2nd line popped up down below under Order History. What is _Z SubStatus? Teslafi has no documentation for this stuff.

I just created an account and tracked my order. I have the same Z order substatus. Current EDD: 7/6-8/17.

Can you share a link to the free and/or paid lists? Happy to have either and hoping it makes a VIN # magically pop up in my app shortly thereafter

Just saw someone in the reddit with my same config Blue/Black but an order date of 5/4 and received a vin today, My order was 20min after launch. Being location based is wack!

I’m new to Tesla and still awaiting my VIN- is there a sub forum here where people talk about various after market accessories? I only see the one where people are selling accessories. Thanks!
