Used Plaid for down payment. Loan (DCU) via check. I kind of wanted to avoid plaid entirely but that was the step I decided just to take the easy road. It worked just fine, really seamless for me.
Also should be noted I knocked SAs universally here. Once I had to actually start calling Tesla everyone I spoke to was great. Manager at my DC was great. Helped me when I picked up too. I think I got a lazy SA who even didn’t respond when Tesla finance copied him in. Overall customer service was very good.
Also, complete the steps in the app before you show up. It’s pretty cool to have a sales process be “your car is there. After you check it out hit accept and it will unlock and you can drive it off.”
