I’d be curious what the cost of a 50a circuit would be in comparison. When charging via a Tesla wall charger my breaker and the charging cable get warm. I can use my temp gun to grab a reading next charge.

Un-foiled! Servers came back up and we took delivery

Foiled again :( State of Michigan auto registration is allegedly down and Tesla cannot do any deliveries today.

Today is delivery day for us! 69 days from order to delivery.

Woo- we have a delivery date! May 21st OD - March 13

I've done quite a few factory orders from various manufacturers and I have never seen any system I would consider "good". In a perfect world I would be able to track, in real time, where my build was in the assembly process.

Unfortunately you cannot lock in for any longer. I really wish Tesla was more transparent about that. I have had one SA explicitly tell me in the welcome email not to do anything regarding financing until a VIN is provided. My other two experiences the initial email did not mention anything...

This is what I have done a couple of times so far. I have gotten a binder from my local agent twice for purchases. I simply let them know when we are taking delivery and they can make the actual insurance active at that time.

Question- asked Tesla about the headlights because I was concerned with getting the older design. Tesla responded that the car has the “global headlights”. I’ve not heard that term. Is this the matrix design?

Just got our VIN for a March 13 order! EDD May 16-20 it was July-August this morning.

Been refreshing nearly hourly for the past month. Ha

Exact same build and order day but in Detroit, we are still at 7/18-8/29.

All these posts are making more a little more optimistic!

You should have gotten contacted by Tesla right after your deposit. They can assist as well. Not nearly as helpful as the SAs that reach out once you have a VIN. Those are usually local.
