Thanks to the creator of the Github checklist. It helped me avoid accepting a car with a bad paint job. I was ticking everything off just fine until I got to the left-rear quarter panel. My Christmas Eve present will now be a New Year's Eve present. Tesla is sending the car to their body shop to...

I finally have my delivery date of 12/24. All the paperwork is as complete as can be at this point. VIN is 336XXX. Nice Christmas present for myself.

I'm picking up the car at the St. Louis/Chesterfield location.

Finally received my VIN! Came through about 10 pm CST yesterday. I'm like a kid on Christmas Eve. The SA told to expect it to arrive for delivery about 10-14 days after I receive the VIN. Is this consistent with other's experiences?

My EDD went from 2/14-3/14 to 10/31-11/28. I’ve been whipsawed so many times that I won’t trust anything until I get a VIN.

I've owned one car that was totaled. Hiring a lawyer to handle the case is the best option. I more than recovered my legal fees and was able to purchase a car similar to the one that was totaled.

My EDD went from 11/17-12/7 to 2/14-3/14 today. Has anyone else had such a drastically increased EDD recently?

It just appears on your order page. I haven't received any emails, and my EDD has changed several times.

My SA said to look for Apple Music in December 2021. I hope he wasn't just giving me a line, because Apple Music integration is important to me. I have the Apple bundle and am not adding another streaming service, i.e. Spotify, to my budget.

That's a flagrant error. You don't even need to know Russian to see that mistake.

Does Tesla sell the wheels separately or do you have to buy them as part of a package? The set on online is always out of stock.

That's about the same price I've been receiving too.

We definitely get days with snow and ice, and I usually don't have the option to wait until everything is clear. Right now I drive a Subaru Crosstrek that will go through anything St. Louis has to offer, so better tires sound like a must. As a newbie to this, do most people get a second set of...

My EDD went from January to November 29 - December 19. I'd like to say that I'm excited, but I'm not. I know that tomorrow morning my EDD could be back to January or who knows when. I'll be excited when I get my VIN.

Are the stock tires any good for mild winters like St. Louis? We get snow, but not like a lot of parts of the country. Really don't want my first purchase for a new car to be a set of tires and/or wheels.

Your SA still communicates with you? Mine disappeared as soon as the order was complete.

I'm thinking that January means whenever Tesla gets Austin into full production. I hope January isn't a placeholder for February or March.

Good article. Glad to know we're not alone.

Partial protection gets the front of the car, side mirrors, lower parts of the door, and the tailgate area. Basically the areas where rocks might fly off the road and hit the car. I added the tailgate area extra. I fly fish and camp and know a lot of equipment will be going over that area.

I'm getting PPF for the most vulnerable parts of the car. My shop quoted $2.3k the partial protection. Whole car would be $5.4k.

Exactly. It would be so much easier to have the status in the app than to go to the web. Shopping in the app would be great, too. :)

The Tesla gods were on your side. Congrats and enjoy!

Good advice. I don't even have my Tesla yet, but don't want any dings on my current car to hurt the trade-in value, so I park as far away as I can.

I ordered at the end of July and my EDD just changed to January as well. My pessimistic side says it will probably be February before it’s all done.

I'm hoping the same. As long as I get it by the end of the year, I'll be happy. Yesterday would make me happy too.:)

That’s what I’m expecting. It still won’t stop me from obsessively tracking my EDD.

My EDD went from December to 11/14-12/4. Should I be excited or expect it to bounce all over the place and not really mean anything?

I'd be willing to pay extra to receive high bitrate streaming.

Their charging network experience sounds like my experience at the local VW dealership. The salesman could have cared less about my interest in an id.4. He had no clue about the car’s specs and told me to Google them. It’s no wonder their charging network is lackluster. ICE manufacturers are...

Good luck with your delivery date!

I have unlimited data, but it does bring up the point that one is on a cellular network. I'm often out of cellular range when I go fly fishing and having satellite is nice.

Have never used Alexa, but it sounds like an Echo auto will be in my future.

Not having SiriusXM was almost a deal-breaker for me. NHL Radio is a must, but the car sells itself. I can live with streaming. If anyone knows how to get Siri Shortcuts to work, please share. I found a Shortcuts recipe but couldn't get it to work.

Placed my order for a red Model Y LR with trailer hitch. The SA was talking about an October delivery, but I see on the website that the EDD for Model Ys is December. Since EDDs change so often, I'm not taking anything too seriously until I get my delivery call.
