Here is a hack if you are into points.
A travel hacker snagged himself $5,000 of 'free' travel by using a credit card to buy a $60,000 Tesla

Directly to Tesla, no. Workarounds, yes.

The hack is to use Plastiq. They charge 2.5% and put the purchase on your Credit card.

The hacker got 3X points and turned $330 worth of points into $5,000 worth of travel rewards.

that hack doesn't work anymore. The chase ink card no longer codes plastiq purchases for 3xpoints/dollar which makes the entire endeavor not worth it. No way you're getting more value than the 2.5% transaction fee plastiq charges you.

Assuming they still let you, Plasiq is still valuable if you want to buy your Tesla with a credit card!

I've been looking at debit cards with points as a way around this for my rent (my landlord accepts Venmo and Apple Pay cash). Might it be a way to get points on my Tesla purchase? Delta SkyMiles® World Debit Card | SunTrust
This one seems to offer points on most transactions. I've not fully researched it yet.

Personal checks are not accepted at a lot of the delivery centers. I was only given the options of cashiers checks or EFT transfer

If they let you use multiple cards it'd be pretty easy to get a ton more than 2.5% in value on that spend doing a number of CC signup bonuses with it. Don't know that they allow that though and it'd require a bit of logistical work.

FWIW my ISA told me they can take a personal check up to $6000- I expect it varies by state/DC though
