wcorey - there are also a lot of people here that would love the privilege of owning a Tesla, are prepared to sell off other things and make personal sacrifices, and yes wait a little longer if we must - and suffer the loss of a $9k LR battery (I'm never selling my car anyway!) and maybe the fancy interior just to get there under $60k - I know there are many that are lucky enough to just buy what they want - and I do not begrudge them at all, but that does not mean that others cannot aspire to save the planet one car at a time!... without being bored to death! (previous Prius owner!)
Ppl who do a WTF like have been playing with circumventing the system. Some reps have been telling ppl to do so will cost them a month. Just say!

I think that's a fair assessment, or they've been cir umventicu the system and silently getting penalized.

How is the VIN assignment done ? Is it automated or someone manually assigns a VIN to a order?
Tesla definitely need to update their system or process used to assign VINs.

I don't begrudge anybody pursuing their dream. Around the time of the Great Recession, there was a huge housing bubble. This was caused, in large part, by ppl buying far more house or condo than they could afford. When the economy went south, they found themselves bankrupt and evicted. It wasn't personal, people, especially young ones, need to make financial decisions in the cold light of day, not testosterone based, thinking now 0-60 in 3 secs. That's all. Either ppl get it or they don't. With this I'm ending my participation in the thread.
Why would Tesla even track if you go to an edit link unless you click the final button to agree to changes to the order? That seems like a total waste of their time, which according to people here, they have none the extra. It would be faster to adjust the code to lock out the link.
No joke.Why don't all you people who reserved months after me, configured weeks after me, and made edits days after me just kick me in the balls a few more times?
Another data point:
Reserved: 04/01/16 (non-owner)
Ordered: 6/28/18
Delivery estimate: Sept - Nov
Specs: AWD LR, Aero, Red Multi-coat
Edit button: gone
Vin: none
Delivery Area: Dania Beach, FL
Had called and spoke with sales yesterday afternoon. Was told I have no VIN number assigned and there was no estimate as to when I may receive the car. I thanked them and moved on. Edit button disappeared overnight last evening. The yellow dots replaced the gray dots for the payment method (as I had chosen Tesla for financing). I completed the loan application this morning. I am assuming I am getting close.

Congrats, but still frustrating for somebody who reserved before you in the same state that I have nobody assigned and no contact.
Is this "edit button" every refers to the text hyperlink on the manage page (below the Tesla phone numbers in the right column) that says "Edit Design"? Just want to make sure I got this right. I haven't poured through all the threads yet about when people lose this and what it means in terms of indication of delivery, but I'm sure I will by the time I get my car which I just ordered this past weekend
What do you mean exactly by "Tesla stopped doing ACH/wire transfers"? Do you mean the don't do them at all anymore? If so, do you now what changed? I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else and I'm surprised nobody else has asked about it. When we bought our previous cars from Tesla, we paid via ACH. I haven't needed to use checks (or go to a physical bank) for anything in years.
