Looks like I'm eating my words.
Got an email today to schedule delivery the last week of this month. Unfortunately, I will be out of town most of that week and only have about a 3-hour window in which I can get there to pick up the car. Hopefully, things will work out.
Interesting thought, but I would think they'd want to shove us cash customers through now so that when all the finance contracts are finalized, they'll have an open schedule to work with. Here's to hoping at least.
Took delivery today @ Fremont. My appointment was at 6:30pm. When I got there at 6:15pm, there were only a couple of groups of deliveries going on. They told me to wait for my delivery person, but I did not get someone until past 7pm. Turned out my car came with built-in front bumper scratches and rear passenger side curb rash. My delivery specialist was nice and answered all my questions, and told me I did not have to take it if I didn't feel like it. I was fine with it, plus they would update my profile so I can go in for a bumper and wheel replacement later on at the Fremont SC anyway. So all was good. Overall experience, 7/10. They could've told me earlier that there were some defects and not just sit around for almost 45 mins with no update.

I'm with you. No email, no changes, no calls. I'm a mix of excited waiting for my email/call and frustrated as I've seen a bunch of people on this thread with later reservation & order dates getting theirs.
There are plenty of people who reserved in 2016 who are getting skipped. I’m happy for everybody getting their cars but damn Tesla so much for loyalty.
Yep... mainly I'm happy that things are moving full speed ahead. Whether someone that ordered after me gets ahead or not doesn't matter so long as we all get our cars in our delivery window.
Order and last config change date 7/1

So today at 2PM if all goes well "Blue Banakin" comes home. Name is a long story.

Really trying not to be a sourpuss, but it's impossible when it's literally the same car. Someone just posted my exact config, in Chicago, without a reservation getting their car before I get mine. I get RWD, I get the day 1/2etc people beating us out, but when I have a res and someone doesn't, that is bs.

Preach. Unless we’re all getting our emails today, this is incredibly poor execution on their end.
Do you think all of us who got the email, or email , got cars that were made for other people who didn’t pick them up?

Seems like too many for that to be true imo. But it's becoming increasingly clear this is a crap shoot on Tesla's part.

Give me some sugar baby
That still shouldn't put someone ahead of a person getting delivery of the same exact config car out of the same exact delivery location who has a reservation earlier in the queue.
I am seeing people reporting that they are scheduling delivery window of the exact same car as me out of the exact same delivery center who reserved months later and put their order in weeks later. It's ridiculous.
People will grind their teeth and put up with this, but only because they don't have any other choice. From any company where there really is competition this kind of BS would never fly. This is as simple as sorting a F&*I* spreadsheet.

I was about to order the center cap set and lug nut covers for my aero wheels....maybe we can strike a deal. Did you get them from Tsportline?Heh. I have the Nomad charger on order and already have the lug nut covers and center cap set for the aero wheels. But that was before I changed to 19" sport wheels. Doh!
