    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    Yes, I was at Dedham yesterday for the pick-up. They are a bit sketchy on communication, and now that I have seen their operation, I think they are just overwhelmed. Probably only going to get worse for the next few weeks as they scramble to meet EOQ deliveries. Worse, yesterday about half of...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    I finally took delivery of my LR 19" yesterday. I was asked a week and a half ago to report on the type of tires. They are indeed summer tires, but the delivery specialist told me that they will swap them out (for free) for all season tires in the fall/winter. All I need to do is make an...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    Sorry for the radio silence, especially since I was to report on my new LR with 19" tire last Saturday, but alas it was not to be. Day before delivery Tesla notified me that there were cracks on the hood that needed repair, so I would have to wait. Am still waiting ... Not sure when the next...

    VIN VIN is '439, so that's a good point.

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    I find that so hard to believe. I was scanning this and the other threads daily (every 15 minutes!) for months and months until about two weeks ago when I finally received my delivery date & appointment time, then I stopped. Decided to check in this morning with the expectation that I would be...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    I am picking up my LR w/19's (no FSD either!) on Saturday in Massachusetts. Have had a VIN and delivery date for a few weeks now.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Yes that is a bug. Same thing happened to me. February will turn into a real EDD in a day or two. You're probably about 3 - 4 weeks out from delivery if you are tracking my recent experience.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Whoa! Just got a VIN and a friendly email from Tesla asking for my final payment. I ordered on 2/15, so it's been a long wait, but I feel like some of you have been waiting even longer. Plus I am getting a non-Plaid, non-FSD, and non-21" wheels, so that's about the last car Tesla wants to...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Many of us are seeing fairly tight EDDs in the very near future for cars with 19" wheels (mine included!), but still, no one has received a LR with 19" wheels yet, correct? It's hard to take these EDDs seriously if no 19" cars are being delivered yet. That would be quite the steep...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    Next major milestone I am looking forward to us for ANYONE to post a photo of their brand new model S LR with 19" wheels. Then I will start to become excited.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I just received the same email, which includes "You may see a delay with regards to your delivery timeline." Funny thing is that I went from EDD of blank to August 31 - September 20, which to me is not a delay at all. I always considered a blank EDD as either "never" or "infinite", so having a...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    Now that would be the cat's meow! I see you are Plaid, whereas I am non-plaid and ordered earlier than you. Perhaps we need to start a new thread for non-Plaid 19" orders since I am guessing that Tesla will ship all of the Plaid 19" backorders before stooping so low as to ship a LR with 19"...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    My SA in MA also told me that they have delivered LRs with 19" tires, so I asked him to call me when he next has a car with 19" wheels being prepped for delivery so that I can come down to gawk at it. I bet he doesn't call before people in this forum are regularly reporting taking delivery of...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    For a while I have been jealous of those of you who have had EDDs, even though we all know that the monkey throws darts at a calendar from 50 feet away when it comes to determining EDDs, whereas I have been straight-up blank for many months (RN1145 w/19" wheels). Now I think I am better off...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    This begs the question: When 19" tires do finally start to ship, will Tesla satisfy Plaid orders first, leaving is 19" LR customers as second class citizens again?

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Question about trade-ins. Is it an on-line exercise to see how much Tesla would offer for my current ride, and then I can decide if I am going to try to offload it via a private sale or go through with the trade-in, or am I stating some kind of commitment when I start the process with Tesla?

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Beautiful car. I am so glad I ordered the white exterior. Question: my wife's new car as a heads up display, and I am now hooked on it. Does the Model S LR come with a HUD? If so, what do you think of it? My wife's car's HUD (Toyota Highlander) shows the speed limit (probably based on GPS...

    2021 MS 19” Tempest Delivery Tracking

    I have fantastic news! I asked my SA yesterday how long it will be before Tesla starts shipping MS LR 19" cars, and he said "starting July 1st we are shipping all the flavors, so hopefully, we will see your car here soon!" Wow, we're all getting our cars in a few weeks. PS - SAs don't know...

    You and I are in 19" purgatory. I'm RN1145.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Really hoping that as soon as Q2 ends, they will start shipping the 19" wheels. Just trying to make good end of quarter numbers with the higher margin product.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Glad to see a fellow white/cream get a VIN. Certainly good news that Tesla is building that combination. I am of course handicapped by being 19" non-FSD. Hey ct101, send me photos of your beautiful new machine so that I can fantasize about having one too.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Hayseed indicates FSD / 21" in his signature. I am non-FSD and 19" and have had a blank date for several months now. Waaa,

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Amen, brother! And of course I will have the same attitude toward our LR brethren who receive their FSD cars before us non-FSD people. But, as I said in an earlier post today, all of those early recipients are helping the rest of us receive better made cars (presumably/hopefully). I don't...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    Not to be a Debbie downer on the excitement of getting a car as soon as possible (and in the spirit of full disclosure, I refresh this site as well as my Tesla order page every 15 minutes all day, so I am as excited as anyone else), I actually am hoping that my LR is the 2000th car to be...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    And I look forward to us cheap bastards who did not order FSD or arachnids to start receiving VINs. At least I am on the east coast, which is starting to sound like an advantage.

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    He gave me a definitive "before" based on the absolutely non-definitive data point that ordering an MS LR today indicates a delivery date of Sept/Oct. I then told him that's useless information since when I ordered back in February, the delivery window was 6 - 12 weeks. He then admitted they...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I actually feel sorry for Tesla Sales Associates. They know nothing yet they work for and represent the company. I just ping'd the chat resource on the Tesla website, as I do about once a month. My Feb 15 order (RN1145) for a LR 19"/white/cream is going to be ready before the Sept/Oct...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Like everyone else, I am super excited for you, bro. What I am most curious about is the yoke steering. Did Tesla implement some kind of proportional algorithm that turns the tires more at low speeds? Oh, and do let us know if you figure out how to put the car into reverse so you can drive it...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Another data point ... MS LR RN1145 ordered 2/15 just this morning went to June 22 - 30 from August. Why do I get the feeling that I am being toyed with? I used to think that these changing dates just meant that Tesla was being honest about not having any idea as to when MS LR cars will be...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    My "6 - 12 weeks" turned in to "August" this morning and is now "June 21 - 30" (RN1145). Why the heck would some delivery date show June 1 - 30 while others are June 21 - 30? Hey, don't get me wrong ... I prefer June to August, but it seems strange that there is not a consistent level of...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Just went to update my delivery date in the spreadsheet from 6-12 weeks to August (sigh), but I noticed the spreadsheet is messed up. Columns F thru L are shifted up by a row. Easy to fix, but since I am not the owner, I didn't want to make the change.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I am RN1145 for a 2/15 order. BTW, my "6 - 12 weeks from order placed date" delivery expectation finally became the "big lie" as of this past Monday. I used to think I was special since so many of you report either having no delivery date or the slightly more concise "-" delivery date. Sigh.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    As frustrating as this wait is becoming, every additional day we wait is a day more of improvements being made to the cars that will soon be sitting in our garages. I am willing to trade off this growing suspense for a nicer car with fewer recalls. And for the record, My 2/15/2021 MS LR order...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Hey T-Racer, I too ordered a cream interior with the white exterior, but I am super excited about it. My only concern is that if it is not a common color combination, I might not see my car until July 2022. BTW, my MS LR ordered on 2/15 still shows 6 - 12 weeks delivery time, so Mr. Musk...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I do find it curious that there are inconsistencies in projected delivery dates. Mine has always said "6 - 12 weeks" from order date. Why do others show a specific month (e.g. July), and some show no date at all? I would think their ERP system would provide all customers-in-waiting a...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    East coast February 15 order for an LR is still holding steady at "6 - 12 weeks from date of order", and SA told me weeks ago to expect an April/May delivery, so he is not wrong yet and all of the math checks out. I thus am still lacking anything to complain about, especially if it shows up...

    Happy Easter everyone. May the death of the Model S line result in its glorious resurrection (on Monday). My LR order still says 6-12 weeks from order, and I am in week 8 now.

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Unlike many of your legitimate gripes, I don't (yet) have one. I ordered an LR on Feb 15, and my account has been saying 6 - 12 weeks for pretty much the entire time. Six weeks was like today, so they have another 6 weeks to deliver. Possible? Yes, from what I am gleaning from this group of...
