Over the weekend Tesla sent me a text message asking if I would be ready to accept delivery in a few weeks. Didn't respond for a few days because I was camping, which triggered a whole hubub where I had to confirm that yes, I will be ready to take delivery at a time and date that they can't lock in because I have no VIN yet.
Ignoring the issues unique to my experience, has anyone else gotten a similar text message?

My SA never responded after that initial text so I know how you feel
Interestingly, this was NOT an automated message. I actually had to engage with the SA.

So I should clarify, the SA does respond, just with nothing helpful.
They are usually canned messages, that look like either copy paste, or an AI bot has responded.
So I asked it that question:
Are you a real person or is this an AI Bot?
To which I got the response:
Hi,
We are real. We do not currently have any further information at this time.
Thank you

The last and only time I reached out to my SA, they said that my production date was set for 9/5. Then when my EDD again pushed to Dec/Jan this morning, I called just to ask knowing that any info I got may not mean anything. All they said was "Yes, your currently delivery window is Dec 11th to Jan 22nd". Followed by "Did you want me to set your delivery to ASAP"? Then she asked if I would be interested in a Red w/ White interior M3P as they have one of those in inventory???
Regarding range, I thought the current recommendation was to only charge to 80% and not to let it go below 20% to maximize battery range. Latest Youtube video I saw had the real world range of the M3P at 280 mi from 100% charge running at a steady 70 mph for the duration of the trip.
So if you follow the 80% - 20% recommendation, range is about 156 miles unless you charge above 80% and/or go below 20%.
Sounds like something an AI would say

all went perfectly with delivery, the car looks great.....does premium connectivity move to the new car?

Yeah 80 is what I saw also. I believe Elon said 90 was ok. So I used that as my example. I only go to 80. The range sucks
That would be around 250 miles of range right? I am planning on charging at work since it is cheap and I don’t have a home charger at my apartment. I am looking forward to having a fun commuter car!

I figure 60 percent usage of the 315 maximum capacity. The 60 percent figure would be at optimal driving conditions and most likely range would be significantly less. I lose about 20-25 percent every 50 miles. Driving with the flow of traffic. With no heater on but Ac running. While parked the car loses about 1-3 percent in 8hrs if sentry is on and there is frequent activity by the car.
Do you have Sentry mode on at all times? I plan on doing that since I don’t trust any drivers, especially with my luck with my last car. I plan to go into work 2-3 times during the week days and maybe supercharge nearby my apartment on the weekend if needed. That is my plan for charging.
I got my M3P back from the shop where I had it wrapped in 3M Satin Flip Psychedelic wrap, ceramic coated with Feynlab coating and tinted with STEX NEX window tint. The front windshield was 70%, the rear windows of the car were 5% and the driver and passenger windows were 15%. I think it turned out pretty nice…
