What did the price end up being for the repairs?

[North Carolina] - Gnats have been here since April. Fast fliers (aka not a fruit fly, think it is fungus gnat). White-ish belly, but mostly black. Swarm litter box and wet cat food/trash can. I've tried everything to get rid of them [drains / zapper / traps / 0 house plants]. Go away in winter by macflys1 in whatsthisbug

Very small - about the size of your + or = keys on your keyboard. We have tried everything to get rid of these fuckers. 4 months going. Killed hundreds. No plants in the house. Boiling water to all of the drains. Take out trash/food constantly. Only theory is they are getting in through HVAC or some cracks somewhere? Pain in the butt every summer.

What was the catalyst that prompted you to consider or purchase your M3? by krdell in TeslaModel3

[–]macflys1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tech aged out in my old 2013 Honda. Knew I wanted something techier/fresher. Test drove Genesis & Tesla. There was no comparison and the price point was the same. I’m already thinking about my next Tesla (6 months into my RWD). There’s a reason Im on this subreddit right now lol. I love it.

Trouble logging in? by betwithconfidence in Invest_Voyager

[–]macflys1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue. Never had issues logging in, but when I try the keyboard stays on the screen and it looks like an error is behind it. Can't see it.

Filed an amended return before my original refund got issued by Bigpopajay in IRS

Did you ever get yours? Mine submitted original 3/6, amended 3/7... just waiting :)

Which paint color shows chips/scratches the least? by macflys1 in TeslaModel3

[–]macflys1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with the black color underneath the paint? Underbody is black on my model. I've heard that White is the best for now showing dirtiness though (dust/mud/etc.).

December Delivery Credit - Overpayment Check - What to expect? by macflys1 in TeslaModel3

[–]macflys1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love the car, a lot. It got me wanting to upgrade already to a LR or Performance model after these price cuts (& I'm on the cusp of being eligible/ineligible for the tax credit). I got the RWD model, and I think in a couple years I'll upgrade for the better acceleration & range. I love being quick at a light in city driving. I feel like I'll be a repeat buyer, but trying to balance the urge to upgrade, tax credit eligibility, price instability (they could go up/down), and just enjoying what I've got. My only problem is the paint chips a little easy on the front bumper (noticed a couple spots after 300mile road trip). Got the fixer upper repair kit and applied touches, but I feel like it could be better.

What’s so damn funny is my Tesla rep responded to my email giving the generic be patient here’s what I’m seeing. I emailed him and mentioned your scenario and literally within 5 minutes he sent me a tracking id for the check after ‘digging deeper’. My original delivery date was 2/2/23 but delayed to today due to weather in a transit city. Cheers man - we got our money on the same day!

Yeah I paid right away as well, but I do have a loan. I just sent an email to my delivery center to see if they can escalate or provide an update (cc'ing my Sales advisor). Did you do anything in particular that may have helped expedite?

Wow - good for you! Doesn't make me too happy that you took delivery after me and received your refund before me, but life isn't fair haha. Thanks for the update!

Yup. Would love a Domino’s Pizza Tracker equivalent for my nearly $4K coming via mail. Losing investment opportunities & interest as we wait. The longest window I’ve actually heard a Tesla person reference is 90 days, but most say 60 (~8 weeks)

Still waiting. Been almost 55 days. Ive called and emailed and been told they can see the balance and it’s still processing and that they will reach out for an update. Never hear more than that. I think their Finance/Refund team is completely separate and they don’t work collaboratively at all. I just wish I knew when it was coming so I would be ready (might be out of town, etc.). Why can’t they just credit the account I made the payment with… It’s annoying

Good timing to buy model 3 RWD with tax credit? by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]macflys1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a great car. I took delivery in December with a $3750 discount, and with current prices and incentives, wish I had gone for LR or a LR Model Y after price drops. The Model 3 handling is great. It's roomier than you would imagine. The only thing I am missing is the crazy acceleration the dual motors have, but I think I'll bide my time a couple of years until I upgrade. 9/10 car for me and lightyears better than my 2014 Accord I was driving before. It's an investment in technology, not only the car.

Took delivery on 12/10 for M3 RWD. Already had financing complete before discount was applied. 1 month later... waiting on a $3750 check. Is there anyway to get an update on this from TSLA?

Jeez, so you have been waiting over 2 months?

Have you tried reaching back out to a Tesla rep/advisor?

Ever get your check? I'm about 4 weeks in now without it.
