    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Finally after 15 months of a 2 month promise got our 5 seater MX LR yesterday, after the last minute QC fail. (interior trim piece, whatever that means) I won't use the phrase "it was worth the wait", because frankly nothing Tesla could deliver would let them off the hook for the complete and...

    Just got the call. Delivery appointment for tomorrow at 10am tentatively pushed out until Thursday due to failing to pass inspection (broken interior trim piece). They don’t have the piece and are calling around hoping to find one but Thursday isn’t even certain yet. Not a huge deal. But in...

    Don’t some manufacturers have model years that don’t align with calendar years? That is, they might start producing the 2023 model in 2022 and selling it as a 2023?

    It would be interesting to hear someone from Tesla address the random and ever changing delivery estimates.

    I think you are missing the point. The SA provides a way to shield Tesla from its customers. Their job isn’t to actually provide any service to the customer except for the initial and final part of the transaction. I’m sure the customer to rep ratio for Sa’s is pretty darned high.

    No way people could be getting date ranges for 5 seaters. I’m on a priority list for 5 seaters and am supposed to get on of the first ones out. Wait… you mean everyone is on the same list? Crap.

    I would disagree with that last statement. If all Tesla cares about is money the FSD would be shipped first since it’s a software update at $10k of pure profit.

    Its actually much easier than that. Issue is they shut their line down with a backlog of orders, and continued to take new orders... all while setting unrealistic expectations for those two groups of customers. Not only that, this line serviced two new products (S and X), 4 if you count the...

    Or strong arm them to 6 seaters like they did the Plaid. Search your feelings... you know its true. Thats what sucks about this. Because Tesla does not communicate with their customers, we have no choice but to assume they aren't coming, because Tesla will not publicly comment on their...

    Except when Tesla took my order in January 2021, their manufacturing line was shut down and they new they would never honor the price or delivery date which they sold the car to me at. At the time of the order they had multiple model X's in inventory in my area. Had they been honest, I...

    To be fair to Rivian…. Tesla raised the price on all of us pre-refresh orders. Then tried to sugar coat it by giving us $2k of the $10k back. Agreed that Tesla is much bigger now and can eat the price . They just chose not to.

    We’re you able to contact your SA and recently change a 5 to 6? Reason I ask, we might finally be at our tipping point. Found out my wife’s RX probably has some maintenance coming due in the next few months. Her car has > 100k miles on it and has had to have a few things done the past year...

    This is probably misinterpreting things isn’t it? Those sales numbers are 2021. We all know very few X’s were made in 2021. The S started back up a few months before that so it has higher production numbers. More meaningful to us now is week over week X production and breakdown of LR and...

    Honestly, I think we probably have to walk away from the profit margin conspiracy theories. Its just too easy to disprove. FSD is 100% profit margin for them and they do not appear to be giving priority to FSD cars. Also in general, while there are some outliers they don't appear to be giving...

    It this point, its hard to get excited about anything Tesla says. I'm happy for everyone getting their vins and taking delivery, but I feel like at this point my ability to ever take ownership of a car in a timeframe I find acceptable is unrelated to any plaids or 6 seaters being delivered...

    Are they both the same configuration, or is it that Tesla wants to deliver you the 6 seater before the 5/7 seater.

    Interesting how this pushout to July seems to be the one that is finally alot of people's last straw as far as the X goes. Had the same chat with my wife last night. We're not sure right now what our breaking point is, but they are darn close. I honestly don't think we'll be waiting around...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    So dumb question... my understanding is they use the same line for S and X, and at any given time they can only produce one or the other, but not both. Is this correct? If so, any chance the pushout from April to July is simply that they haven't been producing the S for a while, and so while...

    GIven Elon said it was stupid for them to shut the line down back in Dec of 2020... it would be naive to think this delay has anything to do with headlights or batteries. My suspicion is its more of a reality check than anything. We knew that April date was crap. They got flack for changing...

    On the bright side we should all be happy the Elon replied to Sawyer's tweet a few days ago. Stop focusing on the negatives like "oh we don't have any idea if or when I'll ever get my car". He tweeted.

    Yup. The "it will be worth it when it comes" just rings of Stockholm Syndrome.

    The Tesla Model X lie continues.
