But that is simply a choice Tesla made. They could easily have decided otherwise too.
They made a business decision. Nothing wrong with that. People are responding with their own decisions.
They are doing both, just not at the same time.
Imagine you order a TV A at amazon for $1000. Then a new TV B comes out at $1500. You call amazon and they offer you an option to replace your $1000 A order with a $1500 B order. You cancel your order and complain that you can't get the B for $1000. Ridiculous.
More like you want $1500 tv for $1500 but your prime account expired 5 days ago and you still want free shipping. Am I Rite?

If Tesla relented and said you can have the 100D with FUSC would you then want the ventilated seats?
If they gave you the 100D with FUSC how should they make it right to those who ordered the 90D on Dec 26th like me knowing FUSC was going away before the end of the year?
For those who altered their order like the OP who feel like they pulled the trigger prematurely and want their original 90D order back should Tesla honor their original order?
I am looking for solutions to these questions not antagonizing. Facilitating productive conversation.
Nope, not at all. More than willing to forego the vent seats for the 100D with FUSC, and even willing to take the crappy new interior choices they are forcing.
IMO they should be consistent with whatever they have done in the past with this type of issue, just allow them to also have FUSC. My understanding is they could upgrade for a change fee. I'd let them do that and include FUSC. I could be wrong, but I think they should be consistent with their handling of this in the past plus honoring the FUSC.
Apparently they are according to some posters here, which IMO makes it pretty clear they did this to push out more 90D's.
I get it, I am not debating or arguing the point, just answering the questions, also for productive converstation.
Correct, but FUSC was still in the new price book back then. Even in the past people complained because when they changed to a newly released model they either lost a feature they wanted or had to pay more because their order was re-priced into the new price book. What they did with the 100D is nothing new it is just like every time they have made a change.
Probably could have just stopped there. The rest is just mumbo jumbo since its not relevant.
Since you already have a model S, would be better to wait for the new goodies. I would be shocked if there is no interior update this year.
It makes zero sense to order a 100D right now without FUSC IMO unless you think they will raise the price, which I doubt they will. I would bet money they will be offering a software reduced 100D down to an 85D for a similar mark down from the 75/60 soon. IMO, that would be very attractive because the 85 is a lot of range, and you can always bump up to the full 100D range. That plus some new goodies makes it crazy to order a 100D right now without FUSC.
Unless you need a car. In the US, the 100d is $3k over a 90. There is no reason to buy a 90d right now. If you need the range over a 60/75, then you need the range. The performance boost is nice too.
The same arguments are being rehashed over and over. Wait if your not ready, buy another brand if you prefer that.
He didn't get it either. He updated the thread a few pages back saying they were wrong. He is now considering waiting to purchase.

Sorry to hear that. I was excited for you after your first post in this thread. It reminded me of being a kid, buying a box of Cracker Jack and getting the exact toy I'd wanted. I remember once the toy I got broke right away and I was so mad that my mother wrote down what I said to her and sent it to the company. A few weeks later a box arrived with every Cracker Jack toy in it. I was so happy. True story.
Maybe that turned me into such a complainer? It paid off.
Canuck: It sounds to me Cracker Jack understood the benefits of responding to legitimate customer complaints in an overwhelmingly positive manner. It can, in the end, result in a better experience than no complaint issue at all.
Good for them. Some here oft miss certain Tesla employees who understood same.

I too cancelled my 90D order that I placed before the 1/15 deadline for free unlimited super charging for the 100D. I had immediately made the 100D order, but after reading this message board, I will likely cancel my order as well. I will eventually order it, but there is no rush any more. My initial rush was to try to get in on the super charging, but without that I will likely wait to see what Model 3 has to offer in terms of upgrade range and costs. If they have a change of heart and honor the free super charging for life like I would have gotten on my 90D order, I will keep the order for sure.
Don't feel sorry for any of us 1 percent whiners lol but it isn't what happened buddy boy. I know what my rep told me - she was wrong. No harm no foul. Life is full of Teslas - there will be more.
