Is Guide: Tesla Delivery Checklist - TESBROS BLOG still the recommended resource? Wanting to go over mine a little more thoroughly since it's such an old build date-- 4/23 (I'm anxiously waiting for my Tesla to arrive for our 4:00 appointment)

You and I are in the same boat. An alternative explanation which was given to me by the local SC is that these cars have been sitting in storage somewhere for a long-ass time waiting for charge ports. Not sure if I buy it 100% but it's what they said ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Hopefully you're able to get your...

This is the bummer with Credit Unions. If they have a decent rate, (EDIT: I'm looking at you, BECU) they are not really falling over themselves to get people on the books. I imagine this is why DCU doesn't even bother with the concept of a rate lock? For those following along today 2.49% is the...

This is perhaps a good time to point out that early on when speaking with 'your SA' many of us have noticed a pattern that indicates that questions are being answered in a generic common queue, probably by HQ or (gasp!) remote workers. Around the time a VIN is issued this seems to switch over to...

I love testing beta *sugar*, this is written from a nightly build of Firefox for example. I'd be 100% about FSD beta, especially with recent developments that bring it out of the completely-broken-outside-of-SF-Bay-Area bucket, but I'm always struck by all the folks who say they bought $TSLA for...

I didn't bother adding the FSD note since 1) none of us have it and 2) latest reports don't seem to indicate that it is being prioritized at the moment.

I had to ask my SA, they are able to see a lot of detail on their end. Sweet, updated the mini table. My 240-series VIN sticks out like a sore thumb, really hoping that there aren't any issues!

Seattle roundup: Not sure if everyone likes being lumped by location so lmk if you'd like me to remove you. Name OD VD Config VIN DD @ms512 3/12/2022 6/13/2022 White, Black, 18 275XXX 6/20/2022 @CEEV 3/13/2022 6/11/2022 MSM, Black, 18 240XXX 6/17/2022 @maxfli 3/13/2022 6/13/2022 White...

Ugh I feel you. I just switched over to DCU from my own CU since they'll only do 100% LTV compared to DCU's 130% and I'd like to roll in WA Tax+Reg. Finally got stuff squared away yesterday. For others wondering, DCU needs to have a VIN/MVPA to proceed with financing, including rate lock. Given...

Love all the PWM and MSM in there! Supposedly one of those is mine, had to bump delivery out to 06/17 due to work stuff.

Talked to a different SA at the actual SoDo location who told me as much, it’s a 4/23 build date (mis-typed 4/26 the first time, oops) that’s been waiting due to the charge port issue forever. Must be why I had a late April EDD at one point? Still a lil skeptical. SA looked at the config and...

Just today my EDD had pushed out to the end of June; not a few hours later I had a VIN and delivery date. Given your proximity to Tesla I’d say there is still a fair chance you’ll have your car this quarter! See some of the FAQ:

Haha, you must be new here. Yes, it’s bad behavior, and yes we are all still here despite it all 🙄 My OD’s 3/13, most of us put it in the signature for easy reference (turn sideways to landscape orientation on mobile) once you meet TMC’s 5-post threshold.

Yo with Tesla’s portable charger perennially out of stock I’m interested in alternatives too!

Well, scratch that. Just got off the phone with the SoDo SC (Seattle proper) and they informed me that VIN and MVPA are updated and scheduled home delivery for Wednesday 6/15. VIN# 240XXX, Build Date 4/26/2022??? SA "This is not a demo car, it is a custom order. You will have the most...
