New Model 3

[Jkellar]

I was able to take ownership of my model 3. Was not able to be walked through everything because employees do not want to sit so close in a car with customers at the moment. Had a small problem with my premium connectivity that has been resolved. My only question left is where are my two charging cables. I looked in the console and the glove box but nothing. Are they hiding somewhere else?

Check the compartment under the floor of the trunk.

If not there, check the front trunk (frunk). Charging cable, etc are in a black Tesla bag.

...My only question left is where are my two charging cables...

Stuff included before may not be included now.

See:

Model 3 Phone Charging Cable

 

[BluestarE3]

Yes, the phone charging cables have not been included for quite some time now. You can either buy them from the Tesla store for $14 a pop or just get generic ones with the same plug configurations.

BTW, welcome to the TMC forums @Jkellar !

Hmm found the charging cord which was in a bag just sitting in the trunk. Nice that it has Velcro on the bottom to keep it from sliding around.

Will check under the truck and frunk tomorrow. Hopefully they didn’t stop including them.

Is there a list out there of the extensive decontenting that's going on w/ the Model 3? AFAIK, off the top of my head:

1. Dimming side-view mirrors
2. Interior carpets
3. Interior door lighting
4. Grocery bag hooks
5. HomeLink receivers
6. 14-50 adapter
7. 2x USB cables
8. Miscellaneous nuts & bolts

What else?? Soon they'll just sell us a steering wheel and tell us to piss off

Whoops... didn’t realize you were asking about phone charging cables.

Thank you @BluestarE3 I think I will just buy the wireless charging pad. Appreciate the warm welcome also!

Great idea! I’d also recommend getting a @Navak USB splitter. It’ll get you much more power (2.1amps) to the wireless pad than the included splitter (1amp). Works really well, and built and sold by one of our own!

Mine was in the trunk.

If you get home delivery, the driver is 3rd-party and knows nothing. He handed me my keys, made me sign a paper and that was it. Home delivery is a real crapshoot, since if you have an issue, the only thing the driver can do, is take it back. You'd think the delivery center would go over the vehicle with a fine tooth comb before shipping it out. You'd think. Mine came all dusty inside, with bird poop on the outside. And zero SOC. Clearly no one had been in the car since Fremont.

Tell you? No, they are now just texting you to tell you where in the parking lot you can find your steering wheel. No contact delivery and all.

What else??

The plastic dead pedal cover, though i've heard it's not too bad with the mats now.

 

[YusufT]

1. Dimming side-view mirrors
2. Interior carpets
3. Interior door lighting
4. Grocery bag hooks
5. HomeLink receivers
6. 14-50 adapter
7. 2x USB cables
8. Miscellaneous nuts & bolts

I was wondering why recent model 3 deliveries didn’t have hook covers in the frunk, odd decision to get rid of that. Also, dimming mirrors is also a confusing one.

The plastic dead pedal cover, though i've heard it's not too bad with the mats now.

Which cover are you talking about exactly? I don’t recall the deal pedal having any cover.

It's just carpet now. Raised carpet, but no plastic piece so it's about 1/3" lower. Contoured mats like my Tuxmats sort of squish down.

Aren't floor mats still included in the premium interior? They are according to Tesla's website, I think they got rid of the mat in the front trunk though.

Calling it now, the next thing they are probably going to remove is that little tray thats in the center arm rest.

Only $14 from Tesla

I bought them. Worth it

The interior mats are included but no frunk mat. I took delivery yesterday.

It kind of reminds me of when you buy a pre-mixed box of salad - you've got a pretty good idea of what you're going to get, but occasionally there's a disappointingly poor pepper ratio....

so what are the winning numbers in powerball tonight?
