Look who predicted you’d get your VIN with your 14th EDD? Congrats! Who else needs me to make some random predictions and pass along some good luck? 😝 Well, you know this thread is going to be exploding with VINs during the next 3.5 weeks. Excited for you all!

Hi everyone! I came back to say…I know the wait is torture, but believe me when I say I miss my car when I don’t drive it for a single day. I do think the longer you wait, the more perfect your car will be. 🤩 Not sure if it’s psychology or karma, but that’s how it is for me. So cool to see so...

Finally…Thanks for all the camaraderie! I couldn’t have made it through the last 97 days without all the advice, insight, and venting on this forum. No issues at all with the car that I could find. 🤩

My SA said ACH isn’t always preferred. Tesla portal (bypassing Plaid or using Plaid) has saved your data for convenience even if you delete your data. It’s stored in the event you purchase additional cars. I recognize that it’s likely secure, but I’m not sure I want to risk it being saved. I...

I wish Tesla, with its advanced technology, had an automated tracker that “FedEx” and “Domino’s Pizza” employs. Even if they can’t provide a lot of details, at least we would have some idea where our cars are after VIN is assigned. Maybe that’ll reset expectations a tad if we knew all the steps...

For clarity, I was referring to missing parts of the charge port/ECU (hopefully you know what I mean!), but I was angry typing this early morning. 😂 As previously mentioned, my car is not affected per my SA (confirmed by 2 different SAs). 🤞Transport is delayed due to batching trucks/personnel...

I may have temporarily taken over the title of most EDDs in a 3 month span…EDD #11 = 5/27-5/31. This last stretch of waiting is excruciating! 😂 Supposedly, birthdate was 5/1, VIN 247xxx, in transit but “stuck”, has charging port and global headlamps…I will believe all this when I see it. Anyone...

I saw someone with 16(!!!) EDDs, but I believe it was a RWD…so I guess that doesn’t count. I am at 10 EDDs. Did h4ph4z4rd and I just dethrone T-J! I actually ran out of characters when I updated my signature to include all my EDDs. 😂 It’s been an emotional rollercoaster, and I will gladly...

A new hope!!! May the 4th be with you! 🙏😝

You must have ordered the wall charger around when I did (I ordered it 2/12, a couple days prior to the drop in price to $495). They didn’t give me a price adjustment then, bc the 15% restocking return fee would be more than the difference they’d refund. As with all things Tesla, things have...

I’m guessing mine will have old lights (VIN 247xxx), so I’m curious what makes you like the old ones better. I’ve read that the new matrix headlights have some dark spots that are permanent (maybe needs to be adjusted, but seems to happen with many cars), but that’s about it. I’ve seen a few on...

Not for me. It’ll be about 100 days if my EDD holds. In my observation and after discussions with Tesla SAs (central and locally), I do think algorithms seem adaptive in the best interest of Tesla, and thus, it is constantly changing due to factors unknown to us on a daily basis. Location seems...

No, a VIN would mean your exact specs are being built. Editing color or 7 seater would be too late. FSD is software and can be added later. Note removing it has resulted in delays as noted in the agreement now.

We have the same OD. I bet you’ll get a VIN very soon. It wasn’t even in source code last night. I saw the VIN in app this morning—zero contact from SA. Maybe they start assigning VINs early Monday morning by location farthest from factory and move west throughout the week (just have to ignore...

No hating here for you sharing knowledge. I actually had not had coffee and got too excited when posting earlier. My VIN is actually 247XXX and not 242XXX. 🤞🤞🤞

Right. It’s not random in most cases (though others in this and neighboring states with exact same build did get theirs before me). I know it’s calculated. It costs Tesla more to deliver here, since I’m far from Fremont. I knew that going in, but it still sucks and made me feel better to vent to...

Congrats! I am pretty jealous that my OD was 2/12, and you have my exact configuration…my location is just low priority. Maybe by the time I finally get a VIN, Tesla will have a miraculous solution for all these parts shortages. One can dream.

If it makes you feel better, I paid $550 for it and have had it installed for over 2 months. I’m convinced that everything I’ve done to prep for this car has jinxed me. OD 2/12. Still no VIN. I need someone to send me some good luck.

You can technically refuse delivery on DD, but that would really be in situations in which there is something pretty wrong with car. Btw—Curious what your configuration is? My OD is 4/20 and my EDD is Jan-Apr 2023… 😐

Hmm, I guess maybe Tesla didn’t need to advertise, since there were several other EV commercials I remember seeing. I had ordered a couple of days before, so I’m not sure if that’s why I felt like I kept seeing so many of them.

Yup…anyone else drop F-bombs every time you open the garage and see the lonely wall charger staring back at you…as a painful reminder of a time when you were so naïve and full of hope…thinking you’d get delivery during the EDD on the app when you ordered?

Did they cancel because of a reservation transfer? I heard of that happening to others.

Wonder if a lot of people with early SR orders switched to LR to move up their EDD…and now we are seeing the opposite problem. It could contribute to all our LR orders getting pushed back among many other unknown factors. Any other guesses?

😩Tesla Gods, you suck. New pushed out EDD (Easter Dooms Day)…5/25-6/29…I hope it’s just a fluke and will get moved back this week…🙏🙏🙏

Anyone else notice that more folks are getting VINs assigned even while they have a 4 week EDD window or is it just me grabbing onto any lost hope there is? Maybe those were outliers? Since my 5 day EDD window in March (aka the ultimate Tesla-tease), I’ve been trying to decipher their random...

Congrats! That’s awesome. This is giving those of us who ordered before you so much needed hope. I had lost hope when EDD got pushed out 2 months after a 3/26-3/30 EDD (I knew it was too good to be true). My home charger and accessories are all ready since mid-March after my SA texted about...

Congrats! It’s a beauty! I ordered the exact same configuration…and a day before you did, but per my SA, I likely won’t get mine until May…so I’m a bit jealous. 😝 I also check the app way too often! I think those of us still checking our app frantically are still holding onto a small fraction of...

Ugh that is bad news but consistent with what I’ve heard too. Keep hoping Austin will help offset model Y production by Fremont and more model 3s will be produced. Still sucks that our location is the furthest from Fremont, so they will batch deliver to mitigate extra delivery costs. I did take...

Thank you so much for looking out! SA in Raleigh never responded to me when I texted yesterday about getting on a queue for cancellations. I’m sure they are busy. Glad to hear you have found a helpful person in Charlotte. At any rate, hoping NC gets some love early in Q2. Sending positive vibes...

You are in good company! I’ve never met other people more impatient. 😂 However, I will say that I’m uncharacteristically impatient with Tesla. Not sure if it’s because of the EDD bouncing around teasing us and playing with our emotions or what other factors contribute to all of us refreshing the...

Why do I feel like your SA is more helpful than mine? 😝 I really want some insight on what they see, know, and do…

Keep the positive vibes coming! I’m picking up in Raleigh, and it just seems like there’s not a lot of activity over here. Ever. We have all sorts of tech companies out here, but no love from Tesla. I’m back to my app refresh obsessive-compulsive behavior again now that I know my SA was wrong.

I agree that the signature helps cut down all the same questions a lot. I will add that you can’t view signatures if you are reading this forum on the phone (I’m using iPhone) if you are holding it vertically. Rotating it horizontally, I could see everyone’s signature. Took me a while to figure...

Congrats! Wow—Looks awesome. Glad it all worked out for you. What was your OD?Gives me hope still when there’s some activity on this side. I’m in NC, so not too far. Was told by SA that this area was no longer going to get many shipments due to costs. Wish I would have ordered earlier. I’m...

Congrats to you! It gives me hope that the SA is wrong. Ha! Just zero love for NC, I guess. When was your OD?

Unfortunately, it’s 5/3-5/30. I said I was going to check the app less often after the reality check from SA this morning that there are zero cars en route to the SE (except Florida), but I couldn’t help but check the app…old habits die hard…Good luck!

Looks like Florida is getting some love from Tesla. We need positive vibes in NC. My OD was 5 days before (2/12) with similar config. Praying to Tesla gods has not helped one bit, especially after getting pushed back from 3/25-3/30 EDD. SA is saying there are no cars being shipped this way and...

Thanks for keeping hope alive for those of us on the East Coast

Yep…this happened to me too. EDD was 3/25-3/30 and got pushed back to 5/3-5/30. OD 2/12 in NC with exact same configuration (M3LR, MSM/Black, 19in). Sucks.

Exact same configuration as me! Good luck.

Congrats on VIN and DD! Hopefully, it’ll be minor and not delay DD. What area are you located? Any other 2/12 ish OD folks start to get VINs and DDs? I’m not gonna make the Q1 cut off with my recent EDD of 5/3-5/31, but it’s nice to hear about others getting lucky.

Same here. My SA texted me about trading in while my EDD was 3/25-3/31. I should have declined on the spot. Ugh. I made the wrong assumption that they knew what they were talking about (they said it won’t push out my EDD and a VIN was imminent). SA was so wrong. It only took 36 hours later for...

You check your app only once a day??? In the morning only??? Or just that morning? What restraint. By noon, the app would have been checked more times than I want to confess to. I thought I was the only crazy one checking it as often as I do…until I joined this forum of fellow impatient...

Congrats! My EDD push back 2 months (to May) after trade in text. I lost hope after getting so close to getting my VIN (today is 10 days from prior EDD 6 day window)…thanks for keeping hope alive!

Agree…miserable here, but that’s nice way of thinking about it. Glad there are others in the exact same boat. Do you think quality plummets at end of quarters due to the rush? My EDD changed from 3/25-3/31 to 5/3-5/31 yesterday. Today’s my birthday, and I really did believe that I would get a...

I feel your pain. In NC and got changed yesterday morning to 5/3-5/31 after sitting at 3/25-3/31…the rules of small windows leading to VINs, just isn’t applicable for some of us unlucky ones. Good luck to you.

Omg. Mine was 3/25-3/31 until yesterday morning. Raleigh texted about trade-in on Friday (2 weeks from EDD), and suddenly the EDD is moved to 5/3-5/31. Do you think they screwed it up? Should I just said no trade in?

Ugh is it North Carolina that is causing this issue???…my EDD moved from 3/25-3/31 to 5/2-5/31 today. This sucks. OD 2/12, original EDD Mar-Apr, moved to May-June, then 3/25-3/31 (held my breath thinking for sure I would get a VIN soon)…and this crappy morning, it’s now 5/2-5/31. :( OD 2/12, M3...

I assume it’s July, but I don’t want to think about it getting pushed out that far. I regret not ordering sooner. I am not hopeful I’ll make the first quarter cut off. Even ordering a week prior seems to have made a big difference based on a lot of the posts here. Though I have to say I haven’t...

Thanks for responding! Good luck to you.
