I had a bad delivery experience as well, but you win. Four years later I will say that while it isn't especially good, at least you'll find the experience of dealing with Tesla to be extremely consistent. I really don't understand the cult following. They have great tech and were miles ahead...

I had a similar experience. I jumped through all of the hoops including taking my trade-in for an inspection at the Tesla store. A few days later when I went in to pick up my new Tesla, they said they wouldn't honor the price they had offered and instead quoted several thousand less. At that...

No. It really is true. With Tesla, something big always is coming. It could be a big step forward. It might be a big idea. Or it might just as easily be a big exaggeration. While we never really know what it will be, Elon will be Elon. Something big is most definitely coming.

I purchased my AP2 car when they were first announced based largely on the hype and the video. AP has been a big disappointment for me. It cannot be trusted and is merely a gimmic to show passengers in short bursts. If I had a chance to do it all over again, I would not buy a Tesla now at all...

I wish my delivery experience was as good as yours. In my case, they slashed what they would offer for my trade by several thousand dollars and then took 4 hours to process all the paperwork.

Same thing is happening the majority of the time on my week old MS. Obviously this is not an isolated problem. I plan to take mine to a SC.

+2 from a MS driver. Would love to see the hold automatically/always applied when stopped when creep is off. Or if anyone really likes the current system of rolling around randomly, then give us a third option for how the car behaves when stopped - Creep (ICE behavior), Neutral (current...

I picked up my AP2 car last week and it was delivered running 2.46.30. No OTA update for me yet, so that is what I am still on and there is no autopilot functionality including no auto wipers, lights or speed limit signs. So AP2 cars do run two digit versions also.

For almost 2 years, the entire world has known that non-desiccated Takata inflators with ammonium nitrate are potentially deadly and need to be recalled and replaced. In May we learned that Tesla was likely affected and that a recall would eventually be coming for some vehicles. But this...

Wooohooo! Congrats! Looks like that Atlanta train will be nice and full of Christmas presents for us.

TessyGirl is right. That picture comes in the email update they will send you. The key thing to know is that the My Tesla page tends to be updated as much as 2 days before you receive that email saying your car is going into production. So for those of us following closely, we watch the...

I highlighted the key sentence in green. That is your status. You are waiting in the queue for production. Eventually, that line will change to read "Your Tesla is in production."

Sign into My Tesla | Tesla Look directly under "What's Next" which is right below the picture of your car.

Mine went into production on 11/23 and also still says "In Production" even though the date has updated. I assume mine just got a step or two ahead of yours for some reason, but I suspect they will be on the same train and that your delivery dates will update soon to a range that is very...

Is the answer not obvious? :) Amazon.com: giant car bow
