Purch date was the weekend before Thanksgiving, something like Nov 17, just in case there was any kind of Black Friday rush. Delivery date was Jan 4. (and I don't think that would have even happened if I hadn't driven back to Fremont) I made a nice downpayment, had a VIN, (actually several) and...

When I titled this thread "likely", I never said "quickly". : - P I received a check from Tesla on Thurs. Did anybody else receive a check this week? I'm wondering if they are sending out a batch every Quarter. Regardless, if you are still waiting for one, apparently there is still hope. I...

Hallelujah, the check finally arrived this week, over 6 months after I took delivery on Jan 4. Why now? It might be that I went and camped out in the Fremont factory showroom one Friday afternoon, or more likely, that we rolled over into a new quarter. Regardless, they finally came through on...

Yes, it is so common that this guy made a YouTube video to prepare you for it: e.g. jump to 2:15 Always good to have expectations set in advance, and then it is slightly less frustrating. Good luck!

Found out today that, "most checks were cut Mar/Apr, but some are remaining." We're waiting to hear back from "Operations" as to the status of my rebate. I have to say it is a sad state of affairs when a corporation moves slower than a bureaucratic government office.

Yup, still waiting for the $1,875 rebate from Tesla on my not-quite-Dec31 Model 3. After 6 months, I continue to hear "it has been approved by finance, and is pending". Is anybody else getting the same story, or is this just me?! Has anybody received the missed-2019-delivery rebate in the last...

Was hoping to have my rebate from Tesla this week, but still waiting. My Advisor said yesterday that the rebate is, "on-track and in process" and "Your name is on our list to help rectify the situation" Today he back-pedaled slightly with, "Case is still under review from the team" but I...

During the factory tour, our guide pointed out some Model X cars coming down the line, and from the tram, you could see the VIN ("5YJXCAE...") printed on a sticker on the chassis.

Thanks, very happy! 99% confident, I have been assured by 2 sales managers from 2 different stores. My VIN disappeared from my account page twice - or maybe more that I didn't notice. ;-) Yesterday, my acct page showed my delivery window. (12-2 PM today) Around 12:30, I decided to double-check...

The guy who delivered it was an employee from the factory who got paid to drive cars to homes on his day off. He didn't understand how to pair the bluetooth... the car wasn't finding our phones, so he suggested it would work if drive more into the city. Thus, I didn't bother asking him about...

Yup, very similar to many stories. I drove to the Fremont Factory showroom yesterday morning, and talked to the sales manager (Mandana) She was able to restore my VIN to my account, and the car was delivered to my house today @ 3 PM. Stay on 'em, and don't give up hope!

I ordered the SR+ (black / black / 19" wheels) on Nov 24

and kudos to all the Sales Rep who came in from all over the bay area to help out. They were out of their element and things were chaotic. But they were trying really hard, and many of them put in a very long day.

Ditto, I ordered on Nov 24, and it was obvious that it was going to be a record quarter. The stock was around 330, so I decided to see if it would dip under 300, and I would jump in. D'oh.

I did not see him. After I got over the shock that I wasn't getting a car, I took the 8:30 factory tour, then I went to the food truck. While at the food truck, somebody told me they just saw him in the main lobby, but he was gone.
