Awesome!! Congrats! I did some home deliveries in Newport but that was back in 2013.
Checking in from New Hampshire. Have had my model 3 for a few weeks now. 100% the best car I have ever driven. Only seen another one around here once.
Finally got my car ("Ares") yesterday!!! It is AMAZING. Four hour drive home to southern NH and it went by too fast. Still settling in and figuring out some nuances. First song played: Magic Carpet Ride by Mighty Dub Katz.

Great song to be the first.Finally took ownership of my first (and likely not last) Tesla at the Dedham store today. Was very pleased with the fit and finish and the quality of the detailing performed. And, was very happy that they are still giving the 1/43 scale Model 3s to owners. I hope everyone else who has waited 2+ years to get this car and not gotten it yet, will get theirs soon. First song played, Ticket To Ride by The Beatles. Now to think of an appropriate name for this beautiful car...
Picked ours up in Watertown a few years ago before MA forced Tesla and new owners into the out of state delivery process. Can't speak for others, but never saw the form they're referring to https://www.massrmv.com/Portals/30/docs/RMV1_fillable.pdfDid any non-MA people pick up their car in New York (or another state)? I'm supposed to pick up my car on Thursday and they want me to sign an RMV-1 form, which is an application for registration in Massachusetts. They assure me that it is mandatory and won't register my car in MA, but having lived in MA for many years that seems doubtful to me.
My plan is to tell them I'm not signing an application for registration in MA when I a) pick up the car in NY and b) already have my NH temp plates, but want to know if maybe this is super normal and I'm overreacting.
No, no, no. DO NOT SIGN AN RMV-1! You are not a Mass resident, you are buying the car from Tesla of NY, and you are not picking up the car in Mass. Mass has nothing whatsoever to do with this transaction. The is no reason for you to sign any Mass paperwork. Filling out that form is only asking for problems down the line (getting hit up for MA sales tax, or who-knows-what the MA RMV can screw up).Did any non-MA people pick up their car in New York (or another state)?

You're not a MA resident; you can't even use the form anyway. The RMV-1 is for registering or titling a car in MA, which a non-resident can't do.
You've got temp plates. You just need a bill of sale and the certificate of origin to take to your town hall for permanent plates. If they push back on the RMV-1, escalate. Whomever you are dealing with doesn't seem to have much of a clue.
Just echoing what @tga said. I live in CT, and picked up my P85+ at Mt. Kisco, NY.. Mass has absolutely NOTHING to do with this. Whoever is telling you this is phenomenally mis-informed. That person (or people) were probably "trained" for 10 minutes on how to close out a deal, and that was for a MA resident car... and since that's how they were trained, they're obviously not smart enough to think for themselves and realize that MA is not in the equation AT ALL.
I would escalate this now to get resolved before you pick it up. Also make sure they know you have your own temp plates, as this MA thing might be their attempt at getting temp plates for you. When I bought my car in NY state, it came with temp plates from NJ.
Congrats on your new car!
