2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

[BruinIvy]

Do you have a VIN yet? If so, NF?

No VIN no info.

However, I did drop off our ‘22 M3P for some post-delivery adjustments at the SC. Struck up a conversation with the SA who is also waiting for a MSLR. He looked into my record and the only thing he is able/willing to tell me is the “you will definitely get it this month.” Nothing more specific than that even though I pressed.

My car is finally leaving Fremont (one week after my original scheduled pickup date, last Wednesday). Interestingly, I got a text and email to schedule at home delivery. Didn't think they even did that in Vegas. Tough thing is it's only during business hours; would much rather get it on the weekend at the service center. We'll see what I can work out, not sure how flexible they'll be.

Finally picked up day! Car was perfect except summer tires. They are giving me a check for 1500 to buy all seasons and i get to keep the summers. Not a bad deal! If you have summers and its a cold state then definitely ask for a solution . Currently they are OOS and they have now idea when all seasons will be back. 3 Ms were there and 2 with summers and the other with conti all seasons

The letter in the 10th position in the VIN denotes the year. N is 2022, M was 2021, L was 2019, etc. The F stands for Fremont, where it was built, I think. Enjoy your new ride.

Today my VIN got pushed from 12/1 - 12/15 (two week span) to 12/9 - 12/31 (three week span). No VIN yet. Others have posted that several cream interiors are being delivered. Maybe that's a sign I'll get my car this year.

On another topic, some TMC'ers have pondered exploring a Porche Taycan out of frustration related to Tesla's long and changing EDD history. The following YouTube video discusses a Porche Whistle Blower's view of the vehicle. The video by Electrfied's Dillon Loomis covers other interesting info, but you can skip to 12:22 to view the Porche Taycan portion. There are similar videos out there as well. You can draw your own conclusions.

Here's a very interesting article in the New York Times about the chaos at a car transport company in Kansas City.

A shipping terminal in Kansas reveals the fundamental problem — no one can plan, and no one is sure what will happen next.

He is going to coat the caps. Next summer I am going to get the alloys underneath powder coated black to match the car's trim. Also, the 19s look WAY better in person than I thought they would. I really like them. I was originally thinking I was going to get a set of 21s for the summer, but now after seeing the 19s, likely will not be doing that.

Good to know and enjoy the new car smell! I am planning to put on a set of 21 from my previous leased S as well. But like u said the 19 looks way better than I thought, might just keep it for a while till the tires wear out.

It looks like you took the front license plate holder off already, how did you do it? Just fishing line? Heat?

Are you doing a ceramic or ppf wrap? I’ve read somewhere on here ppf is better due to the soft paint Tesla uses.
