Tesla Fremont Factory Drone Flyover- Model 3 Buffers.

I'll just leave this here ;-)

A couple interesting notes: Lots of Model 3's in both the front lot and the back lot (traditionally S/X buffer). Front lot cars have no wrapping, so look like local deliveries. Back lot cars are a mix, but mostly wrapped for transport (LAX bound cars?). Also, 36 supercharger pedestals from the 3 delivery event still there, and look to be real (18 cabinets visible on the left hand side). Seem to be in use by factory workers or cars bound for delivery?

Can someone zoom in on the VINs

 

[Garlan Garner]

Makes no sense. Why would there be tons of Model 3's just sitting around?

maybe whatever has been the problem in the production is easy enough to put in later to allow for the rest of the car to be manufactured in advance.

It's a lack of ORDERS !
They can't even sell the cars.
TSLA is going to ZERO!
/S

I doubt theyre sitting. Going to find out. Another video tonight.

If they’re making hundreds a day, some of them are always sitting around waiting for transport or delivery?

The problem was already identified as the battery and that wouldn't be something you'd be adding into the car at a later time.

The initial / primary / lead problem was the battery, but if you take apart the words Elon and others used, they left open the potential for secondary issues that they were working on in parallel with the first. It's possible that one or more of them are still as yet unresolved, either fully or partially.

Perfect, that's what we need is a couple of them on different days so we can see how much turn over there is.

 

[tpatana]

At any given time, regardless of the production speed, I wouldn't be surprised if there's 1-5 days worth supply of cars. That's just logistics, until AP is on the level that it'll drive home.

Cool video! Cute jelly beans from up above.

Wonder how they keep track of exactly where a particular VIN is parked. The geo-location precision using the app is kinda' good enough, I guess; am sure there'll be a lot of honking the horn involved.

It really doesn't matter. If someone wants a red car....just give them any red one. The insides are all the same right now. The only other option to check are the wheels.

According to Electrek, there are about 500 M3s. Plus a mix ok S and X.

500?

I guess its better than 0.

I'm trying to look at this optimistically. ( typed with clinched teeth )

500 here, 500 there and pretty soon, you will reach your goal(s)

I'm pretty sure VIN is assigned during the build/configuration process, not based on which one on the lot is closest to the service advisor doing the delivery or loading the transport truck.
