    RWD 3-row Model Y order cancelled by Tesla

    Right, my latest comment addresses this. I did not initiate a cancellation, but I got this text message. I'm not sure if I was required to do something to keep my reservation active. I have sent a message to Tesla to clarify.

    RWD 3-row Model Y order cancelled by Tesla

    Sent a message through the website to Tesla about the text message they sent. I expect I'll hear back from them sometime before the next century. Rereading the text message, it does say "due to you not being available until 2022". I wonder if I had to update something online to confirm I was...

    RWD 3-row Model Y order cancelled by Tesla

    I got a text over the weekend saying that the preorder for my configuration, a RWD 3-row Model Y, will be cancelled due to it not being available until 2022. Anyone else get something like this? On my Tesla account, it says that my preorder has been cancelled and the refund is in the works...

    Flat Tire Today.... Great Warning System!

    A friend of mine used these screwed into hockey pucks: https://www.amazon.com/Pack-Rubber-Screw-Bumpers-Cabinets/dp/B07GBFD3SH/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2Z2YPYHNPYJUL&keywords=rubber+screw+on+bumpers&qid=1561046351&s=gateway&sprefix=rubber+screw+on+%2Caps%2C171&sr=8-1 I rotated my tires with them and the...

    BMW will crush Tesla

    I'm not mad at you for posting this article. It's ...instructive, let's say, to see what kind of FUD is going on out there. I don't even necessarily think you should take the thread down. It's good to get feedback to combat the misinformation spread in that article. So don't worry. You're...

    BMW will crush Tesla

    Alright, I read that steaming pile of garbage with my adblocker on so you don't have to. Here's what you need to know: It's trash, don't read it. Oh you want more? OK. "BMW is coming after Tesla in the way the Night King was marching on Westeros. The only difference: BMW will crush Tesla...

    Looking for advice RE: an ICE-free house

    Paging @MXWing. He wrote a whole thread about how he bought the lowest cost Model 3 while waiting for the Y. Have a gander. Crazy fire sale going on with Model 3. Y wait?

    Sentry Mode not working during break ins / Removing rear seat latch

    When I enable Sentry Mode, it starts recording video anytime a person is detected. It doesn't require a window break or anything like that.

    Model Y unveiling event 2019-03-14 (official thread)

    $2500 is a little steep for so little info, but luckily I found this on the Model Y order page: "Until your Vehicle is delivered to you, you may cancel your pre-order at any time, in which case you will receive a full refund of your Pre-Order Payment. Until your pre-order is matched to a...

    Software Update 2018.40.x (Version 9)

    I got 40.1 last Friday evening. But since I never got 39.x, I jumped straight from 36.x, and so I'm not sure what all is different. My apologies for one of the less useful posts here. But hey, at least I have a Model 3.

    If model 3 is the "cheap one" then why am I paying more than a new S?

    The AWD Model 3 is 4.5 seconds, even closer to 4.2 than 3.5. Get the non-performance and you can save yourself 9k. 55-60k is a lot less than 77k for the base S.

    Does anyone else's 3 whistle?

    Could you provide a little more detail of where you think the whistling comes from? Mine does this on the driver side from about 50-70mph and it drives me nuts.

    Who best to patch a tire?

    I picked up a very small nail today, in the tread thankfully. Has anyone gotten a tire patched on their 3? Is discount tire ok with jacking up teslas? Or have y'all called Tesla mobile service? Thanks in advance!

    Texas Hold Up!

    Something of interest perhaps. I came home today to a fedex envelope from Tesla with my registration paperwork. However, instead of asking me to send my signed documents back to Tesla in the included return envelope, it asked me to bring them to my delivery appointment. On a side note, my...

    How did you like Austin Detailing? Did they do anything other than ceramic, like ppf and tint?

    How'd they wire it up? Directly to the battery, or through the 12V port in the arm rest?

    Texas Hold Up!

    I'm getting my pearly white in a couple of weeks, and I'm worried about this issue, I'm just not sure there's much you can do about it. The back is my least favorite part of the car, so I guess I'll just have to only look at it from the front 3/4 view.

    VIN Assignment

    Hey I'm one of your twins. Invited/Configured 4/6 VIN received 4/30 - 17xxx White/Aero/EAP Delivery scheduled 5/16 I'll be looking forward to your delivery thread where you tell everyone that the 17k range VINs are perfect!

    Rear seat protector

    Anyone with car seats have any recommendations for rear seat protectors? Something that will protect the seats themselves from the car seats and to act as a barrier to the biohazard that is young children leaving crumbs everywhere.

    Texas Hold Up!

    Just got off the phone with RBFCU. They're sending the money to Tesla overnight today! Thanks again to @ummgood and others who helped spell out the process. One thing to note, when on the phone with RBFCU, they initially said that they don't overnight the check, and if I wanted to do so, I'd...

    Texas Hold Up!

    Good question. I tried poking around on my account page to see if I could get anything to pop up, but because I've already uploaded all my information, it may not be prompting me with a chat box anymore. Also, it may just be past their hours of operation. Another alternative is to call the...

    Texas Hold Up!

    I would try to contact a couple of other people on this board that have already gotten their cars. Chances are the same ISA will be handling many of the cars in the same geographical area. Alternatively, you can try logging into your Tesla account, and hoping that a chat prompt pops up asking...

    Dallas Model 3 Deliveries - Watch out someone!

    Tesla's process for assigning VINs is weird. I have the same config as you except aeros instead of sport, and I just got my VIN which was in the 17k range. I hope you get a new VIN assigned soon.

    VIN Assignment

    It looks like we got Tesla siblings! Just got my VIN this evening. Texas, non-owner, 3/31 reservation in store, invited and configured 4/6, VIN assigned 4/30 17xxx, white/aero/EAP

    How it feels to wait 2+ years for a Model 3

    What's that? Oh yes, this is a pitchfork in my hands. But this is not a mob, this is just 380,000 of my closest friends and we all happen to be pitchfork enthusiasts.

    Texas Hold Up!

    Saw a silver one on 620, but that's the only one I've seen outside the SC. Apparently they're as thick as flies down near Lakeway. Ordered 4/6, still waiting on VIN as well.

    Texas Hold Up!

    I cheated the system. When filling out all the fields after configuring, a chat box popped up asking if I had questions. Wasn't sure about what was needed for insurance so I started a chat. The kind Tesla rep told me she'd contact my ISA with my question and he reached out to me (of course about...

    Texas Hold Up!

    I received my invite and ordered both on 4/6, still no VIN. I'd assume that after this week's production shutdown things should start moving quickly again. I'll be reaching out to my ISA next Friday if I still haven't heard anything.

    Texas Hold Up!

    Because I have to ask...how much did you pay for the tint job/ppf? did they also do a ceramic coating over the ppf? And what brand tint did they use/are they able to do the back all in 1 piece? (I know they didn't do it bc of the glass chip, just checking)

    Went from refreshing daily to see if I can configure to refreshing daily to see if I have a VIN

    I've moved on to the "No beer and no TV make Homer something something something" phase waiting for my VIN.

    I would have paid an extra $1000 to get the red/orange color from the reveal car. I really, really wanted that. But I like white the second best.

    I thought configuring would ease the madness, but it has not. I fear for my sanity.

    Average Delivery call after VIN assignment?

    I had my ISA contact me before receiving my VIN (still don't have it) to answer an unrelated question I had. He said that once a VIN was assigned, it might take up to a week before he'd contact me. 1-2 days to get off the production line, 2 or so days for QC, and maybe 1 day for paperwork? I...
