[POLL] CA Current owners ONLY. Have you received your config invite yet?
- Thread starter insaneoctane
- Start date
I must admit, that with roughly 50% of owners in CA still waiting, this thread was surprising:
SUPER EXCITED - Just Finished Configuring my Model 3

The poll doesn’t specify DAY ONE RESERVATION owners, but covers all owners, even those who bought a Tesla or reserved a Model 3 up to just recently. So 50% is pretty good I would think.
What I want to know is whether they're going to invite all CA owners before they start sending invites outside of CA. And whether they're going to prioritize day-one CA non-owners over day-two WA owners. Or more generally, are they going to prioritize the CA region over the Owner category for other regions?
All good questions. Two follow up polls would answer this question:
1. Non-California owners invited?
2. California non-owners invited?
Those two poll results over time show the rollout across the U.S. for current owners, and whether the easier shipping to in state non-owners proves too tasty for Tesla to pass up from a delivery number perspective.
Remember, Model 3 volumes will be much higher than the S and X. Whether the non-California stores will be able to handle it or need larger delivery centers created surely plays into the decision.

I felt that based on the delivery estimates that Tesla was giving priority to current owners regardless of their reservation time. I feel this was implied with most of the current owners seeing November as the earliest vs December for non owners...

I’m an X owner that reserved in the evening on March 31 and my window was NOT Nov-Jan but Dec-Feb. I got my invite on Friday so you non owners with that same window should feel encouraged
Can confirm, non-owner, have window Dec-Feb, feel encouraged.
So a non-owner in Florida has the same window as an owner in Washington state. That surprises me. Unless they feel that in January and February they're going to fill an awful lot of the demand. Or day-one non-owners are in the same category as day-two owners and being on the west coast doesn't matter any more.
It would be nice if they'd publish their criteria, rather than just saying that location and ownership status matter.
I should really just stop thinking about it and wait for the invite. Grump!

I'm a GA owner with a Dec - Feb delivery window but I am still waiting on my invite.
Yeah, I dunno how this will work but still feel encouraged. comment about the queue, It is already somewhat different from what was initially stated. I would not be surprised if they will open up the rest of invites based on actual queue after California is all settled.
I reserved on 3/31 but then cancelled a few months later after ordering a MS. I've since gotten back on the M3 list by putting another deposit on Oct-16.
Seems like first day reserves are still the ultimate priority signal. I've got Nov - Jan estimates but I definitely screwed myself on this one. Waiting patiently...

Does anyone know how "Hold My Place" works if you want to wait for AWD? Does that mean prior owners will have priority when the AWD version comes out or will they be bunched with everyone who did not purchase a RWD?
Presumably, everyone who selects "Hold my place for AWD" will remain in the same order on the list as they are now, and once AWD becomes available, they'll be invited in that same order. Anyhow, that's how I read Tesla's statement about it.

S owner in CA. Reserved March 31. Invited 12/7. Configured 12/9. Received VIN 12/22. Took delivery today.
Just as a barometer: I'm a never-owner (never owned an S, X or CPO reservation) with Nov-Jan delivery estimate (was Oct-Dec before the shift), 3/31 east coast in-store reservation with SoCal residency & delivery address, so should be toward the earliest non-owner deliveries): Still no invite.
