SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

[Swaggy]

Been reading for a while and finally decided to join. Thanks to all for the helpful information on here.

For what it is worth, I swung by the Chicago location last week. SA said that they are getting 2-3 shipments of cars per week.

I'm new to this - what is the best way to shop for the best car loan rate? It looks like this spreadsheet, which used to update hourly, is no longer updating:

Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

Hi everyone, This community has helped me tremendously on my Model 3 ownership journey and I thought I'd give back with this spreadsheet. This spreadsheet pulls rates directly from the credit union's website hourly, so you're always getting the latest rates, because as you know, they change...

OD 5/19 RWD black, black, aero, no fsd, FL
Would changing my interior to white delay my EDD of 10/3-11/7 I just recently had the EDD shorten up for the month of November by 5 days and don’t want to delay it by switching to white interior I’m at the point if it will delay it I’ll live with the black interior. Has anyone experience a delay when making this change?

What is your original order date?

July-Aug when I ordered in March

I figured the Aug 6 - Aug 20 EDD window had to change as Aug 6 wore on without any word. Sure enough, I woke up this morning to a revision: new EDD Aug 10 - Aug 24. I wonder when the VIN appears ...

For me, it only showed up when I got the 4 day window.

Thank you for the response,

I talked to Tesla today and they said if I change my order to LR it wont impact my EDD. So now like I said I am on the hot seat to make a choice between staying with the SR or switching to LR. I choose to go with a Tesla due to my drive to work. I drive 70 miles round trip 4 days a week, on the weekends I will be using my truck as i need it for towing my toys around. I plan on staying with this car until the wheels fall off so I am wondering if I should go with the LR, especially in considering battery loss of 1-2% each year. Your thoughts?

I am not a chemical engineer, but from what I’ve read about the LFP battery, I am sticking with SR bc supposedly less degradation and 80% of LR with aero wheels is only slightly more than 100% of SR. I too have 150 mile daily commute. Can’t wait to NOT stop at a gas station every 2-3 days!!!

My 2021 M3 SR+ lost 8% in the one year I owned it, and the tesla service department told that was normal. 1-2% per year? That’s just not true.
Sold it and got in line to buy a Tesla with LFP.

For you lucky folks who have already picked up, is your car already fully charged? I have a 2.5 hour drive home and was wondering if I need to factor in charge time.

Day 181 since my OD and went from a four-week window to a two-week window yesterday. Not complaining that it's only three days since I went from a five-week window to a four-week window! Broached the topic of how to get to the Tesla delivery center across state lines with my wife (Tesla is not allowed to deliver in Wisconsin due largely to the political influence of the automobile dealers association) and she is not comfortable with driving our other car back from Illinois and thinks that Uber is too expensive. Kind of wishing that we didn't both need to be present for the delivery signoff for a jointly owned car.

Mine was fully charged. I’m not sure if it still is, but supercharging also used to be free on delivery day.

Just got my vin….. yeahhhh

Does any know what days the Stockton and Fremont Ca take delivery appointments?

Needing a ferry ride and/or flight for the delivery, we elected to change our car from jointly owned to a single owner. We'll change it to joint on the first registration renewal.
I don't know if this is useful to you but I think Tesla would do this for you quite easily.

July-Aug when I ordered in March

It could be real then as currently many of the LR orders that are being delivered are late March orders

 

[Randy-12]

How many 2 week windows did you guys receive before delivery? Just received my second one. Was Aug 5-19. Now Aug 10-24.

I had 7 two week windows.

I had 7 two week windows.

damn. lets hope i don't end up in that boat!

I got a text on Friday saying my car is in transit. Is it coming from Texas or California, and does anyone know how long after the transit text you can expect to get the text to schedule delivery? I’m on the east coast.

Guys, is there a way to tell if your car has matrix, lfp batteries and all the good stuff just by looking the VIN number?

Coming from Fremont. I’m wondering the same thing, supposedly it’s like 5 or so business days.

I had a Aug 6-10 EDD, and received a text with my vin on July 25th. I got the option to schedule on July 30th.

I just got a text from my SA saying that my car is in transit to my delivery location
He said I should expect a text within the next week to schedule my delivery appointment!
