Current Delivery Times

I still don't understand the delivery dates with VIN. Once you receive a VIN, do they give you a more accurate delivery date where you can choose what day you want to pick up or do you still have to wait until your SA reaches out with a pick up date timeline?

Even getting an inventory car can see your EDD shift. I ordered it on the 6/3 and got my VIN. They gave me an EDD of 6/4 - 6/6. Then the 4th came and it stayed the same. But no contact from the SC to finalize a timeslot and all backed work done such as insurance, payment info, etc.
When the 5th arrived, the finally moved the EDD from the 4th. It then became an EDD of 6/5 - 6/7. So I wake up today and it has moved yet again with an EDD of 6/7 - 6/9. Talk about moving the goalposts at the last minute. Who knows what it will be tomorrow.
Regardless, I am so glad I found something in inventory. Seeing my previous dates get pushed out so far when I changed from the MYP that would have been here in 2-4 weeks, to the MY LR EDD of July/August was really depressing. At the time it was a really tough decision when that close. In hindsight, changing models was the right decision for us. Hopefully when driving it for a few months I'll still feel the same way.
What was really shocking is how quick all the inventory cars went. They were gone in a matter of hours. Truly there were some I would not have wanted to buy without a massive discount.
Good luck to all those still waiting, hopefully your dates don't slip and they don't gut any more content from them. I am still concerned about how AP will work in the conditions I need it to.

In my case I got a vin assigned on a Friday morning and didn’t get an email, text or call from Tesla at all. Eventually was able to get hold of my DC on Sunday and schedule a delivery date with them.
I want to doubt that would happen, but this is the company that, when I call my closest SC, I wouldn’t be surprised if they answered the phone “Tesla, you’re welcome.”

Pedestrian warning system (the weird noise it makes at low speed and the spaceship sound it makes in reverse)Silly question: What does PWS stand for? Thanks.
To be honest, until you have contact with your center or advisor and they have set up up an appointment, you should look at the EDDs and what not as really bad estimates. Even then some folks have had EDDs changed, either on purpose or because reasons. It would be nice if they could just tell us, but they appear to value their own flexibility at moving stuff around rather than definitive dates of delivery. Yeah. It sucks. As a customer I'd rather know when. Plus we have to arranged things like financing, insurance, sometimes long road trips to a pickup location blah blah blah. They really put the burden on us for a lot of that.
Just got to roll with it. In your new tesla preferably, but if not, just roll until it happens.

Pedestrian Warning System....its a boom box outside the car.Silly question: What does PWS stand for? Thanks.
This. I watched a YouTube video recently where someone was talking about what to expect from the buying process. When they got to customer service, they essentially said “don’t expect much.” And that really helped put it into perspective for me.
It’s not gonna be a uniformly great experience, but there’s nothing else like it on the road. So, I’ll be irritated a bit but it’ll probably be a distant memory once I actually have the car.
I got a vin and heard nothing from anyone for a week. I reach out to my SA and got generic reply number 3 that he could chose from to send back. Last night I finally got my please make your final payment and once I completed that there was already a pick up day and time set for me.
Actually you can set it to use A/C or not. Although there may be another parameter hidden there, as my car is currently registering 140 degrees interior in the app but the overheat protection isn't running even though I have it set to run with A/C. It's currently unplugged and at 63% SOC so seems strange.
Ordered 5/7, got MYLR, silver, induction wheels, 5 seats, standard interior, and FSD. Got a VIN on 5/28 with a promising EDD. On Friday I got a text to schedule delivery so now I'm going to pick up the car this week. Do you guys suggest paying online prior to delivery or bringing a cashier's check?

I plan on paying online. One less thing to worry about. I think the odds of you finding something bad enough where you would reject delivery are extremely low.
Just an update: my delivery date has moved forward by a week. Hopefully it keeps doing that.
MYLR 5 seater ordered 4/12 white/white, geminis, tow, no FSD. Tysons Corner, VA pickup.
