Just updated to .188. The increased power off of the line is quite noticeable, as is the pedal sensitivity. :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: Motors seem a bit louder as well, which is fine with me.

LetsGoFast, I hope you have better weather than I did -- six hours in the pouring rain to/from Raleigh yesterday to get this baby home in time for Christmas! Amazing car, so worth the wait! Big thanks to Jerome and the Raleigh DS team (Shannon and Martha) for making it happen! Those concerned...

Spoke to my DS and got some more details about delivery. He has been great btw. This may be common knowledge, but he said the status on My Tesla won't update again to "On a Truck" or similar... so I can stop refreshing now. :redface: Once he gets the shipping manifest, he will call the truck...

I'm curious as to how long it is taking people right now to go from "Production Complete" to on a truck for delivery? Does the status get updated promptly when this happens? Apologies if I missed this somewhere on the thread!

I have not. My DS indicated that they don't set a date until the vehicle is on the truck, which I understand since it probably avoids a lot of rescheduling. It's been 2 days for me as well, so hopefully that will happen today!

LetsGoFast congrats! Sparky saved you a slot on the truck, and is ready for the long ride eastward! :biggrin:

I came out of production today. I did email Jerome last Saturday, proactively stating that I would gladly take the standard seats if it would expedite delivery. I also emphasized that we needed the car before leaving for a 2 week vacation on the 26th, and that if it did not get on a truck by...

Finally, a status change: Production Complete!!! 3 weeks to the day after it went in. No idea which seats yet, but don't care at this point. Just glad we may have a shot at seeing it before Christmas!

Really, wow! How did your DS reconcile that with Late Dec update, or did they?

Mine just bumped to Late Dec as well. Not surprising since our cars will likely be on the same truck to NC.

It means just that, "rough analysis", ie, not fit for peer review.:biggrin: For fun I spent maybe 30 minutes looking at the gaps, trying to account for various things like the mix of other vehicle types, timing issues (such as early adopter skew as you mentioned), and the inherent unreliability...

During the darker days when we had no information and were grasping at straws, I'd done some rough analysis of the gaps between VINs. After adjusting for outliers, including some of the larger gaps which appear to be blocks allocated for some purpose ???, I'd estimated that *at most* 1 of every...

I was very pleased to receive the email. It must have been my tweet to Elon. Kidding aside :biggrin:, I'd like to think that your email to Jerome did have an impact. So thanks for that. Hope you make it!

Tweet loosed: Greg Gonzalez on Twitter: I will advise if any response.

Yes, seems it would have to be the seats. We know Elon wasn't a fan of the previous seats, so he's likely paying special attention to these. That said, doesn't make much sense that this wouldn't have come up earlier. IMO it's all speculation at this point, as the story seems to change from DS...

I'm doubtful that EM is out on the line doing QA. More likely he is getting reports from QA on P85D performance in various areas vs spec, and he happens to be the guy that makes the call regarding whether what they are seeing is good enough for release. Something may be far enough out of...

Man, sorry to hear that. Hope it's just a comm issue and nothing serious.

Same here, it'll make this torturous wait more bearable. Looks like we're a day apart in production, but I expect we'll end up on the same truck.

You should be able to add your details to the first blank row at bottom. Desktop browser is probably safest.

Perhaps they only take Thanksgiving off for the US vehicles. ;-) Congrats, beautiful car!

My P85D is in production! (VIN 64331) I'd called my DS yesterday to express concern that my confirm date was so far after the order date (10/15->11/13) in relation to others in the sheet, and to my great surprise he said that his system showed my car in the queue for this week. Thankfully, he...
