your probably right I’m guessing I’m waiting on a missing part like some others which throws the app off. But it’s just a guess.

1800 Miles over 4 states in 5 days of ownership 
.
Tint installed— 35% all around with 70 on the windshield, all ceramic. My last car had 20% all around with 50% up front, which I would have preferred again, but I figure the Model3 is already flashy enough so I don’t want to give anyone more reason to hassle me when driving out of state. Other add-ons include a front lip and a few stick-on bits, and 5mm Front / 15mm Rear spacers. Lowering springs and a new rear spoiler just arrived and should be going on in the next week or so! I am also half way through the road noise reduction kit install, but I already measured it at only 67dB on the highway, which is the same as my previous vehicle into which I had installed 75lb of sound deadening mat in the doors and trunk.
This vehicle is amazing. Even with the autopilot being a little quirkier than I had hoped, this vehicle overall continues to amaze me. In hindsight, it is hard to imagine $60-64k getting anywhere close to the overall vehicle experience and delivery experience.
Speaking of the delivery experience, indeed, I showed up about 30 minutes early in my Uber, expecting to have to wait. Nope, they politely began the process for me. I was out of there in about 15 minutes, after signing 4 pieces of paper and getting a quick 5-minute tutorial. I had never even been inside a Tesla when I got to the dealer, so I have been pleasantly surprised with how intuitive most everything has been.
*edit*
Oh, and I had a blast surprising various family members with the acceleration and handling of the vehicle over the trip! However, I will definitely be looking into a few 240v charging options (like various adapters and heavy duty 240v extension cords to steal power from dryer outlets) because plugging into 120v every night, while better than nothing, wasn’t quite cutting it when everyone wanted a ride all the time haha. I coasted into my last stop at 3% battery the night before I left for home.

Hahaha love it! Not even a week and already on the drag strip. Post your times!
Cases like that are probably folks refusing delivery or missing their windows, I have to imagine. Otherwise...well, I don't want to think about it.
She's repaired and delivery scheduled for Saturday at noon! I can not wait.
That's relieving to hear! I'm hoping for the same as well. But then again mid to late March was when Tesla's demand was going through the roof with increase in gas price so I guess we will see. Honestly, as long as I can get the car within early June I will be a happy man.

My VIN just showed up in my account instead of just being found in the source code. One more week to go!

So far, removing FSD has had no impact on EDD. Still sitting at 5/24-6/7 after 2 days. Definitely feeling good about the decision - the mental gymnastics of justifying FSD was a bit complex.
With the price of FSD now, It's cheaper to just rent it when you need it. It's not even fully baked yet and who knows when it will work on all roads.
Welcome to the two week window club. Hopefully that will be the only one for you with a shrinking window. I’m coming up on my 3rd two week window (May 14-May 28) that will most likely go into another pushed back two week window. Trying to stay positive

Into the window for the second time, no word yet from my local Tesla. Waiting on the charge port ECU.
EDD 5/12-5/16
EDD 5/12-5/16
Still no car - OD 02/24 - Talked to the SA this morning, Car was built May 4th and is currently on a train in AZ almost to New Mexico. They said they expect it to arrive and I take delivery the last week of May. App has the EDD as May 24 - 28 currently. Elon needs to invest in faster trains.
You are ahead of me and I ordered a day before you. EDD: 5-25-6/8 Almost the same!

Argggh got a flat this morning! Thankfully I was just down the street from my office. I was driving 40mph. I didn't hit a pothole, so not sure on how it blew out. I got a warning to pull over and check for a flat. It was the rear right tire. I called 5 places and found a tire shop that had it in stock, otherwise it was a 3-7 day wait to order.
Called up Tesla Roadside service after and scheduled a tow to a local tire shop. The lady on the phone wasn't too friendly and seemed offended that I didn't want to tow it to a Tesla service center.
Going to buy a modern spare and a 12v air compressor to be on the safe side incase this happens again.
