Model 3 Performance/Ludicrous Waiting Room

it's messed up. EV drivers paying for gas tax. paying for something you don't use. when EV drivers already pay more for electricity tax.
It's for road tax that is usually proportionately paid for through tax on gasoline. It's not a gasoline tax necessarily. So now people are paying their road use taxes that drive EVs. It was only a matter of time. Once there is large scale adoption, everyone is going to be paying these taxes, probably on their electric bill.

We are likely going to be mandated to tell some kind of local government how much electricity is supplying energy to our cars so they can tax accordingly.
 
Hey did you install lvl 2 charger at home by any chance? If so, which electrician did you go with? I need to install one.
i went with one on the Tesla list. i no longer recommend them. its a big company. they screwed up and ghosted me on coming back to repair/replace breakers. basically they used the wrong brand of breakers on my panel and it burnt. i can give u names of the 2nd and 3rd choices i didn't go with. also, u will need a permit to get the charger rebate/incentive.

Got the option to schedule delivery today but I will be out of town during the three days they offered to schedule.

What’s the best course of action here? I was gonna go to the dealership I’m supposed to pick it up at and see if they will work with me on an earlier or later delivery. I’m available literally the day before or after the time windows. Anyone have any experience with this type of thing?

I rescheduled my delivery today and the app wasn’t letting me do it. I looked up the dealership I was scheduled at in google, and called that number. It gives you the standard Tesla automated system, but if you follow the prompts for delivery, and then listen to the bs telling you to check your app and reply to the sms, but then hit the button to talk to a SA, it took me to the SA at that location. She was super helpful and worked with me around my schedule.

Got my hopes up good on EDD3, tightening the window and moving the backside date up a bit, and then Jun 30 ever since. :)

The latest EDD pushed the front date back 2 days.... like... what's the point? It's just an estimate anyway?

I am still thinking July sometime, maybe late, or early August.

That’s great to hear they were able to be flexible! I’ll try that tomorrow. Thanks.
