Mine moved further out a couple of weeks ago. Likely because of my color combo. If it gets to the end of May without an assigned VIN, I know I wouldn't get a car this quarter and so I will actively chase inventory in any color combination at that point.

Maybe you can't drive a car interstate with dealer plates. In my theoretical idea, you would be transporting the car to your local dealership as Tesla's agent. Tesla would not have sold you the car yet and hence cannot collect tax at that point. Instead of Tesla paying the $K2+ destination fee...

In this vein of the European delivery program, I have often wondered why Tesla could not implement a similar program for people from other States to go to Fremont and pick up for later registration in their own state. I have brought up this idea previously here and the responses were to do with...

What is you RN and what trim of model s? Just so some of us can start hating on you. And by the way your submission is quite significant. Easily the first VIN assignment of the quarter on this thread.

Really end of June? Have hackers started contacting Tesla reservation holders? Did they ask for your CC number? It shouldn't take 3 months to transport a car to Ontario. Additionally 365 is Ontario. Typically Tesla Nevada and not the local store would contact you this far out.

Understood. Just for the benefit of others I'll spell this out. If the opening showing in your photo is supposed to be there, it is is also on the passenger side but not showing in the picture because the camera points towards the driver side. The white car is head on and the black lines in that...

The photographer pointed their camera angled towards the driver side. Not arguing that you're wrong. Just the evidence is not adequate to me

The photo you attached is not appropriate for the question you ask. I hope that's not your only basis of your quest.

The way I see it Tesla has 2 more weeks to deliver this PLAID or I'm going to start a rumor to dispel the rumor that Tesla does not hold a vendetta

These are both poorly written articles full of speculation. Just because some journalist wrote it does not make it factual. No editor of an actual news organization such as The Washington Post would ever allow this garbage to be printed as news. Our pooling of information here on TMC has already...

Whereas I hate to criticize anything you say, I have to protest in the strongest terms that the words Tesla, customer service and build quality should not be used in the same sentence without following such a sentence with a full page of explanation. just sayin'.

There goes. We agree on the big picture. One's views evolve with time as they must. About a year ago I wrote that Tesla would fail once there was sufficient competition. That was because they kept my Model S at service for more than a month with extremely poor communication. Tesla is still very...

The argument you espouse here has manifested in different forms on this forum. This has been argued 'ad nauseum' and I'd rather not rehash it. I have also followed this and the other delivery thread with lots of interest but disagree with your conclusion. In the end Tesla potentially loses you...

So were you able to pick up?

All relative, though. Imagine how overseas customers must feel.

Surprisingly no reports considering how many people were vehemently against the yoke.

Call Tesla 800 number on their website and choose appropriate option. Any actual person who answers the phone will open up your page for you to complete financing info and decision from Tesla will be almost immediate. Although not financed yet I'd also try to talk directly to Tesla financing...

As long as I have waited, if it were me I'd drop everything and make it happen. Of course if it's to do with financing it may be out of your hands. Except of course if you finance with Tesla.

On my Android phone I occasionally deactivate Bluetooth accidentally when I swipe down to see notifications. Often don't realize this until I go to use headphones with the phone. Specifically the Pixel phone which has this easily accessible Bluetooth button.

Hear! hear!!!

Congrats. However, this being EOQ I'd confirm that they do not insist on you picking up today. They may reassign the VIN.

Now you’re talking

Why PM you?

Now if you'd just tell us where you are, the sleuths here would tell you when to expect a VIN

Keep FOMO alive. The matrix lights will be improved with software updates

Please put the above line I edited for you in your signature. You will be here for a while. As for your question 2 weeks sounds about right

Exactly and there may well be other factors others can think of. So interesting but not terribly useful experiment.

You and I ordered days apart for the same configuration. Similar EDD. Mine changed last week. I'm gonna be watching you like a hawk as I'm sure I'll be days to weeks away once you get your VIN. Tagging you right now. And if that doesn't happen I'll come here and denounce Tesla for favoring men...

There's an obvious difference between the pictures. However, for a fair comparison, as in most other experiments, one should try to control most of, if not all, other variables in the subject. So the author should have tried to take those pictures at the same spot in the road and with the same...

I have a vague recollection of reading somewhere within the recent past that Tesla disabled caraoke because the NTSA or some other Federal agency had ruled against it. Others please enlighten us on this matter.

I totally misunderstood this. Submission deleted

So I'm interested in what is happening as the West Coast EOQ push. One can't tell on this thread as much as we did in December. Maybe all the VINs are going to Twitter and FB user groups or the majority of buyers who are not obsessed like me and hence not in any groups. So, Master E, discuss.

Def not. He's as real as they come

I’m having one of those moments when you realize you’ve been had by a troll account without any truth to it. For a while.

03/22 but I appease myself by reminding myself that the Monkey sometimes behaves like a bull in a China shop. I'm harboring the secret hope that Q2 is my turn.

You and I should probably not get our hopes too high. He's on the West Coast (not quite geographically but I'm sure within the West Coast delivery category by Tesla). They have filled 1168 there. My EDD has already shifted out of April.

Well I think this turned out for the best. I’d argue that if you order after Tesla started manufacturing 2.0 you’re entitled to 2.0. I guess Tesla could say we’re not showing 2.0 on our website yet. Yata! Yata! Yata.

I’m a self appointed agent of his. Sounds like assigned VIN was 468, hence pre 2.0 and so he had made up his mind to reject for being 1.0. He decided to go over and look at the car anyway and it turned out to be VIN 474 and so he took it

Congrats. Please explain that VIN mix up if they explained it to you

I can’t access the full statement from Sawyer but just a few days ago someone had a slightly different take. It showed the Tesla Y order page with the highlighted FSD button saying IF YOU REMOVE FSD YOUR ORDER WILL BE DELAYED. This was in the context of a whole bunch of orders adding FSD and...

This argument is quite tenuous indeed and some have even said the theory has been debunked. We do not have scientific data to draw a statistically arguable conclusion. What you offer here is the example of you and one other person. That can be countered by the example of me with a fairly...

Went to fill the tank in my place holder ice I have been driving around for the past 4 months. Damn gas is expensive. Elon, where’s my S?

Totally uninformed on this but I’ll speculate. Tire insurance covers nail damage. New tires from a tire shop come with basic insurance that covers a short period of certainly longer than 3 days. I would like to argue that tires on a new car come with this same basic coverage from the dealer. OK...

🤣

That is impressive turnaround for a body shop. I know the OP did say body shop next door but I believe Tesla now has the capability to do certain body work including paint.

1168 orders in the Bay Area have recently been filled. Please make sure your order is complete in Tesla’s eyes. Search here what that means. You could probably even call Tesla and try to get matched before March 31. You will almost certainly not get a car in April. Your next window opens in...

Not meaning to be a troll but did you not decline a delivery a few weeks ago for asymmetrical gaps? My apologies if not

It also happens to be new lights but I cannot help but observe that you must appreciate how the rest of us in the cheap seats feel. The wait for the PLAID is really not that long. Can't tell from your signature what your journey has been, though.

If it helps, this happened to quite a few East Coast members last December. They all quickly got VIN reassignments come January. Tesla for all its faults is that reasonable. I bet you will get your car next month. This is the modified EOQ we have been mentioning. They simply couldn't get the car...

And who said EOQ push isn't happening? Still is, just restricted to the West Coast and really mostly CA.
