The Salem supercharger is now on, folks are reporting this and posting photos in the Tesla Owner's Group of Southwest Virginia Facebook group.

Picked up my AWD on Thursday from Charlotte and just noticed it doesn't have a Dual Motor badge. I guess they forgot, so just a heads up in case you want one, you may have to ask for it.

I took delivery yesterday! Being a weekday, hardly anyone was there. I had heard of Charlotte doing group orientations before but we had a guy all to ourselves. It didn't go too swiftly, they needed extra time to put my front license plate bracket on (stupid Virginia), and they needed to call my...

Thanks! After not hearing back from my delivery advisor, I decided to improvise and download the Virginia title and registration forms from the DMV site and copy the information over from the North Carolina forms, and then mailed them to Raleigh. We'll find out if that was a good idea or not.

Ugh that's so frustrating. My delivery date is on Thursday, hoping nothing else comes up before then. Though I have a question for you since you're also out of state, or anyone else who happens to know. I'm financing through Freedom First in VA, but Tesla sent me a title application for North...

Just got my second delivery date for Charlotte, 8/16. First one was canceled because their lot was too full. Still waiting for contract though. Reservation/order timeline in my signature.

Sorry to hear your story! I'm down in Blacksburg. They scheduled my delivery for Charlotte, but it's already not gone to plan as Charlotte has no more room for cars, so I'm still waiting to hear back about a new date. Maybe pick up your car so mine can arrive? ;) As for the paperwork, my...

Just got a delivery date, details: MSM, AWD, Aero, EAP, Black interior Reserved: 3/31/16 online before reveal Invited: 2/4, deferred Configured: 6/27 VIN: 7/25, 54xxx Delivery date: 8/13 in Charlotte

Whoa, nice sleuthing! I confirmed financing yesterday on the new screen and got first ISA contact today but she didn't include a VIN. Looks like it's 54xxx.

No call, but just got initial contact from my ISA! She says I have a VIN (but didn't specify it) and that my car is in transit from Fremont to the regional hub in Birmingham. Reserved online 3/31/16 Invited in January but deferred for AWD Configured on 6/27 No trade-in, credit union financed...

MSM, AWD, Aero, EAP here, just got initial contact from my ISA. She says I have a VIN (but didn't specify it) and that my car is in transit from Fremont to the regional hub in Birmingham. Reserved online 3/31/16 Invited in January but deferred for AWD Configured on 6/27 No trade-in, credit...

I'm actually planning on picking up in Charlotte, NC. I guess I defaulted to that this time since that's where I picked up my Model S in 2015, and I think the Richmond one hadn't been built yet? Hopefully it doesn't impact delivery much. Maybe I'll mention to them that Charlotte, Raleigh, and...

Oh snap, I'm in VA and you have the same config as me. You give me hope that I am soon! It's in his signature. It should be on the right side, but mine also went away after being asked to confirm everything.

I just got the new page, thought it would never come. Reserved as soon as online reservations were open on 3/31/2016, owned an S then Invited in January but deferred for AWD Configured 6/27 AWD, Midnight Silver Metallic, Aero, EAP, no trade-in, credit union financed

That's the exact configuration I ordered. Here's hoping our time on the assembly line comes soon! Congrats!

@tgal Not yet. Been talking and negotiating with a lot of folks, I even had a few people ready to pull the trigger a couple weeks ago so I went with one of them but the guy couldn't get his credit application approved because he found someone had stole his identity, crazy stuff. Then of course...

@tgal Exactly! PM me if you end up in the market.

Hi @tgal, yes it is still available. I'm talking with a couple folks at the moment but no one's firmly committed just yet. A lease transfer entails me sending you some paper work for you to submit to US Bank. The paper work states my intent to transfer the lease, and includes a credit...

Bump! Due to extraordinary circumstances, this car is available again. Let's talk! @wilson

I've got someone who is fairly committed at the moment, so it's currently on hold, but will post back here if that changes, and will certainly update the status if the transfer goes through.

Bump! Get 1,000 miles per month for less than $1,000 per month.

Bump!

Here are some more photos I've just taken this afternoon. Didn't get to clean it as much as I wanted, but should give you the gist.

Hi all, Looking to see if anyone is interested in assuming the lease for my 2015 70D. Here are the car details: - Midnight Silver Metallic - Autopilot enabled - 19" wheels - Piano black interior - Panoramic roof - Subzero package - ~24,600 miles Lease details: - $952.69 monthly payment -...

So glad. I was cutting it close driving from Strasburg to Blacksburg a few weeks ago, had to drive 60mph the whole way. Too much elevation change.

Finally, delivered! (Full timeline in my signature below)

No, I don't know. Yes he told me when I last emailed to check in.

My page says August 29th - September 12th. It's the 12th and my DS still isn't sure when I'm getting my car, but I'm hoping within the next week or so. I think things are a little more logistically difficult for us east-coasters. My car has been stuck in Birmingham, apparently. But +1 about...

You're welcome! No I don't unfortunately, all the information I have is in that article. I may attend the ribbon cutting though (and hopefully my Model S will be in), may find out more there.

Since my end of I-81 is generally barren of fast chargers, and I know some of you make regular trips to Blacksburg, wanted to let folks know downtown Blacksburg is getting a CHAdeMO charger. It's a little ways off of I-81, but there's plenty to do in downtown Blacksburg. Ribbon-cutting on...

Ha perhaps! My status just updated this evening, by the way: "Production Complete: Your Model S is in transit from the factory." Hope to hear from DES about scheduling delivery soon.

Delivery estimate starting to get specific for my 70D: "August 29, 2015 - September 12, 2015" Excitement and anticipation is palpable. Got my NEMA 14-50 installed this week. I'm ready.

Finally entered production today, 19 days after confirmation. Here's hoping production is quicker! New estimated delivery: "Late August - September"

Thanks for the explanations about the utility transformer, all! I just stopped by Strasburg again this evening and did not see the utility transformer on the pad, still looks the same as the empty pad above. :(

I honestly wouldn't know what I'm looking for there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Someone mentioned a green box on the concrete pad? I saw one inside the wooden structure as pictured.

Hey just wanted to say I'm enjoying the podcast, AND I'm also a former DeLorean owner (VIN 3472). Your first episode helped me realize why I too seem to have become obsessed with Tesla coming from DeLorean. :) Awesome to hear someone else with the same story.

Just swung by Strasburg today, here are updated photos:

Elon wasn't kidding: Tesla Motors on Twitter:

Congrats! This thread really resonated with me as I was going through the exact same pros and cons a few weeks ago, but I also ended up leasing a Model S (pretty basic 70D) with plans to go to a Model 3 at the end. I'm just hoping the Model 3 won't feel like too much of a downgrade after driving...

Order date: 7/24 Confirmed: 7/31 Production queue: 8/1 Estimated delivery: "September" VIN 99394 70D, midnight silver metallic, pano, autopilot, subzero

Just got my VIN as well: 99394

Hi all, been lurking here for a while, thinking of getting a Tesla (another software engineer here, :waves:). I RSVP'd to one of Tesla's "Discover the Future of Driving" events where they make appointments for drive demonstrations, or test drives. The event is tomorrow, I RSVP'd at the beginning...
