So if an existing Tesla owner orders a Model 3, will they still get ahead in line of the 3/31 non-tesla owner?

Hi. You are doing a poor job if you are not trying to be a dick. I'm a Tesla fanatic who does lots of research. I don't have problems with communication. I have problems with ignorant people. Especially if something affects people, they don't want to see the evidence and they come up with excuses to argue why the evidence I presented is incorrect.

For example, somebody was asking feedback about a potential Model S 60D purchase and I told him the 60 kWh was about to be discontinued because of a specific sentence said in a Tesla conference call. He didn't believe me. A week later the 60 was gone.

A similar thing happened before Tesla announced they would discontinue free supercharging. Some people argued with me that it would be only for Model 3 and Model S/X would continue under the free for life system despite a screenshot I showed them that proved otherwise. Of course a while later Tesla confirms free supercharging will also end for Model S and X.

In another example, people argued with me there will be either a HUD or a dashboard and I showed them a video of Dough Field (Tesla VP of Engineering) explaining why they will have only the center screen. Of course, at the end, no hud and no dashboard was confirmed.

Similarly, when I said the larger battery size of the Model 3 will be 75 kWh, some people argued it will be 100 kWh. I explained 75 is enough based on drag coefficient number Elon tweeted. A few months after I predicted 300 mil EPA with 75 kWh and showed detailed calculations (including a drag area measurement for the Model 3), Elon tweeted maximum 75 kWh for the Model 3 and a few after that a screenshot of the touchscreen was captured that implies 300 miles range. This specific example about owner priorities is easy. I predicted lots of things correctly that were much harder. Check out this thread for more details.
