    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    @Zigman This is a FANTASTIC idea! Why didn't @Roat and I think of this...? ...ohh that's bad news. Right lads, lassies our Ormaus needs kitty a lot more than we do, looks like. 😂 Alas, new information has come to light @Mal Cartwright. Ormaus is way too important to this thread/forum to risk...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Will second, third and fourth (even fifth and sixth) this. I've got both the Ryobi 18V One + hand tools and more recently the Ryobi 36V Brushlesss Trimmer and Lawnmower (this last one I love so much!). Absolute pleasure to do chores around the house with. No more stinking fumes, dirty grease...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Logged in specifically to agree with you Zigman but also to tell you that, NO, you're not going to get Ormaus' kitty - I've already got dibs on her/him. (😂) P.S. Unless Ormaus decides to give kitty to @Roat.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Skurfer, I'm not sure how familiar you are with Tesla's rate of innovation when it comes to vehicle updates and manufacturing processes in general. Yes, the Model 3 was launched back in 2016, but I think what you'll find is that the 2016 Model 3 lacks a lot of newer components and features...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi Ormaus, Apologies for the delay - had my 4th COVID-19 shot and it has sidelined me for two days...had no significant issues with the first 3! According to the final invoice, the Build Date is: 14/07/22. Thanks again Ormaus, for all that you do for us. 🙇‍♂️

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    @Loxmyf There's a simple explanation for that. Our good friend has got his VIN, he's out at PK ship watching for his shipment of racing forklifts! P.S. Are you really a locksmith?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi fellow support team members! I'm still around, have been lurking in between life/work but am still here! 😁 @theaussiedon I'm not entirely sure about what that Giga Shanghai shutdown might mean...aside from the inevitable disruption to production, that is. There was recent talk about a deal...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi all, reporting in here! I also got the update on my app, August - October. ODD 10/Feb White/White LR. Is anyone seeing a noticeable pattern here? I haven't been able to pick out anything yet. Anyhow, we're all in this together, we're all each other's support team members - just hang in...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hear, hear. Agreed. Let's not take it out on the SA, my fellows, they're only doing their jobs as best as they're able to with he information that's available to them. These delays are most likely getting them down too morale wise. Speaking of SAs, mine (from Parramatta) contacted me earlier...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi Cammo, Thanks for the reply, I had no idea so many cars came with wheel sizes this large by default. (Then again the last car I bought was back in 2009, so...) Yeah, I didn't change my order - I decided to leave it intact with 19" wheels. ;)

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi IcedCoffee, I ended up calling an SA to ask them about the benefits of moving down to the 18" from the 19" (which will not result in a refund for difference in cost, in case anyone was wondering). I did voice my concern about the ample anecdotal feedback regarding the 19" being more...

    Thanks for clarifying that cafz! Hopefully anyone else wondering about wheel size vs ground clearance on the Model 3 can benefit from your answer. ;)

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Hi all. Thank you to everyone posting on this forum, you've all been a great source of information and support! I've been a long time lurker and observer, having followed Tesla and the Model 3 in particular since the mid 20-Teens. Finally booked in a test drive at the Parramatta Experience...
