AWD delivery thread

[dave999z]

Just got an email saying they are only doing Q3 deliveries so I'm scheduled for end of Sept pickup.

Not knowing exactly what they wrote to you in the email, this is more classic Tesla nonsense. They are "only doing Q3 deliveries." Hmmm, yet there are a ton of reports of people with October delivery dates scheduled. So WTF are they talking about. They just constantly pull stuff out of, well you know.

Sorry you're having problems, @voip-ninja. Did you miss my update post? Since Sept. 4th, the whole sheet is locked down. You must use the entry form to add / update your info (requires a Google account). From then on, the form will pull your existing data which you can update. If this is your first since Sept. 4th, create a new entry, use the same username, and afterwards I flag and delete the redundant, older record. Make sense? Let me know if you have any issues. Thanks for updating!

I am logged in and on the new entry tab. I try the drop down to edit the document and it says I have to ask the document owner for permission to edit the document.

The entry form is a separate "form" here. Also, click at the top of the data sheets:

Frustrating sure, but if you're going to put effort into it try to find a credit union you can get an even lower rate with.

The difference in interest paid on a 60 month loan, for $60,000 between 3.60% and 3.69% is $145, or $3 per month.

Yeah, more frustrating than anything. I just received an email and they restored the original offer, that said I am now shopping around to see what I find.

Yes, I was told that order wasn't going by reservations order

I called the sale number yesterday and was told that order was not going by reservation. I was suggest to call Delivery Team directly to ask for status of my order which I had my reservation on 4/6/2016 and configured by 6/28/2018 for a deep blue AWD (non-p) with black int, 18", and EAP.
But I still could not get through DA team after > 5 calls since yesterday. For sure, their priority is by batch and the choice of batch is also in favor to higher revenue of the configuration and quantity. Anyway, I don't think we can easily figure out any trench of our order any more. Every Tuesday they may have new decision of what batch to be done first.....

We should be in roughly the same tranche, same configuration date (my reservation was actually later). I'm in the bay area, same car configuration except I also added FSD. FWIW I'm a cash buyer w/ no trade-in and forced into home delivery. I did get emails for scheduling delivery and in theory a confirmation for home delivery in on 9/24. However I haven't seen any status change on the website (e.g. show that I have delivery scheduled). Apparently according to a later post by @dlieu I shouldn't expect any website updates.

Same no update to account. I'm on home delivery and scheduled for 9/28. No updates on my account, even after completing and being approved on loan application. I did receive another email yesterday from the DSA confirming my schedule, but still not update on account as of today

Me wondering why reservations no longer play a role in determining delivery order.

We now have a late September delivery day/time, thanks to Brodie! (I generally try to avoid sharing the exact details of my schedule in public, so that's as specific as I'll be.)

What you are saying is that folks with reservations gave TSLA a ~2.5 years interest free loan on $1k?!

As a "day one" reserver, I don't see it that way at all. Thanks to our reservation, I was able to order our AWD Model 3 in late June, thus locking in better prices on AWD, blue paint, destination/document fees, and future cellular network access. The savings add up to a few thousand dollars. Pretty good for an initial "investment" of $1000!

yes, now that'd be +2k on AWD, +500 on paint, and +200 on delivery charge. Which is yet what they would be happy to re-offer to reservation holders at those so called "delivery experience" events completely forgoing the fact that these are the people that already had contractually locked prices due to giving Tesla 3.5k in total well ahead of time.

oh man.. don't use the word "contract" as now bunch of folks will jump in and defend Tesla in terms of why there is no legal obligation on their part and that they can change the price at their whim every other week to meet their profit commitments

 

[dlieu]

yes... i stand corrected, the "order agreement" with plenty legal language to indicate it is binding to this or that

So I just called Tesla and spoke with an extremely nice lady named Shawna. Or could be Shauna, or maybe Seana. Anyway, I asked her about the Silver or Obsidian color for expedited delivery email, and specifically if I switch from MSM to Silver would that speed things up for me. She had to put me on hold to ask someone, and when she came back she said unfortunately no, that is only for new orders, and if I change my color now it would actually delay my order.

Not really surprising but good to know the facts. So then I asked her the obligatory “can you check to see if I have a VIN” question and of course she did. She reported that I do not have a VIN, however she said with a late June order date (6/29/18) that I should hear something very soon! She said they are working very hard to schedule delivery for all June orders so “hang in there” (her words) and I should be hearing from them soon. So yay me!

Nothing definitive to be sure, but this is similar to what a Tesla rep told me on Monday, so either they are both tellling thee same lie or maybe things are moving faster than we think. It’s good to have hope.

Hi everyone! Long time listener, first time caller. I got my delivery scheduled with the last big push of invites last week. My account changed yesterday with the option to enter in financing information. I’m not sure what to put in for loan amount being I don’t have an exact total as to what it will be with taxes and such. Do I just guess or round or should I wait to hear something from Tesla? Itching to get financing rolling but don’t want to apply yet if I don’t know how much I need exactly.

Also:
AWD/Non-P/MSM/EAP/Michigan
Reserved 4/8/16, ordered 7/4/18. Schedule contact on 9/6/18, pickup Highland Park 9/29

I give up. Same configuration minus EAP, picking up in Chicago and a day two res holder. I mean EAP must be getting priority. It's the only thing I can come up with at this point.

Wheels and interior color are likely a factor as well which wasn't specified.

Received an email from the local delivery center around 5 pm this evening confirming our delivery tomorrow evening at 7 pm, attached was the "final" MVPA.

I know you are all waiting patiently, hang in there! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a successful and issue free delivery tomorrow.

 

[Sealy]

3/31/16 res, 7/9/18 config, MSM AWD LR Black Premium 18 Aeros no EAP no FSD. Likely this configuration wasn't high dollar enough to get into Q3 so I am hoping they'll come through for me in October or November as they say on my page. No contact from anyone at Tesla apart from me calling them twice to try for info. No info available, but it does make sense they would be smart to get the extra money for software that costs them nothing to load onto the car. I'm ok with waiting, even though I am very anxious to get my 3 and was a first day reservation holder. I think the value I received was a break on the AWD price. Having said all that, they really should work to get cars to early reservation holders November or before!

My DSA emailed today to get back to me about updating my insurance info. He said all is good and that I have a VIN 97XXX
Pick up on 9/23 stoked!

My DA refuses to give me.my VIN. Scheduled for delivery on 9/20 and he says I won't see it to 5 days before delivery

I think you’re right and I’m seriously considering adding it.

I have a friend who lives a few miles from the Fremont CA plant. Tesla has twice scheduled a delivery of his car (most recently today), and hasn't shown up either week AND, no one even called to say they weren't coming. He has e-mailed and left voicemails with the "delivery specialist" and his supervisor, and hasn't heard anything back from either one of them. He is canceling his order. Can you blame him? What the hell is going on?
