Current Delivery Times

My goodness you guys. I thought I was on the M3 forum. I apologize.
order MYLR (dark grey, black interior, 20" wheels) on 6/1. dates jumped around and a few days ago got the 'September' message. Next day it updated to the last two weeks in August. Now today its back to just 'September' -_-

No need for a cashier's check. They initiated an ACH from the account and routing numbers from my personal check. Since they don't require a cashier check, I didn't see the need to take the extra step to go to the bank.
At this point the VINs are not providing any valuable information towards figuring out any kind of timelineIt helps us determine where we are in line. Like I've had my VIN for over a week with no info on its delivery. (207) yet others with higher VIN's have taken delivery so trying to track down where mine is at based on other's current VIN and situation
Tesla would look pretty dumb and somewhat reckless if they reintroduce radar to the 3 and Y when/if Bosch has availability. As well, I wouldn’t get an older Y thinking you’ll keep radar. Uncle Elon said the TV update will roll out to all 3s and Ys. Which effectively means they’ll “brick” the radar. He says a lot of crap, but I don’t think the radar is coming back. Did a Bosch shortage speed up the move to TV? I would say almost certainly. Is it coming back? Almost certainly not.
Took delivery tonight! Ordered 5/1 and got VIN on 5/28. It was flawless. No issues. Love it!
I guess it is Ohio! I’m up in NW Ohio and was just bumped back to September. Ordered 5/20 MYLR W/W 19”

The 2nd to final step is accepting the loan agreement. Yes it is an esignature. There is a notice on the site stipulating you are esigning.
Then final step, which can be ignored is providing final payment. Absolutely no reason to pay early when you don’t own the car until you accept delivery. Initiate ACH at the SC. Even home delivery wait until you see the car.
Crap. Stupid me. I paid. I thought I had to. I’m supposed to have the car delivered this Monday and the message said the MVPA will come on June 20. Ultimately I don’t have a problem paying it as I know the car will be great. It’s my second Tesla.
Took delivery this afternoon. It was inventory, but just unmatched, so came from Fremont, was heading to mid Atlantic anyway, no fee, and it had 4 miles on it at deliver.
Hang in there folks. As many have said, totally worth it, incredible car and engineering, but craptastic pre delivery. Several thoughts:
1) Panels were perfect. I had time (see below) to look at 7-8 other new Ys and they all looked great too.
2) No other “typical” issue except for the crazy coat hook that wouldn’t close. Easy to fix at some point.
3) I have a 7 seater - one of the seats in second row wouldn’t slide forward and tilt to get to third row. Three folks tried, didn’t work. They took it back to service and fixed it. It was a faulty sensor and they replaced it. Annoying part is it took a little over an hour and they only updated me 40 minutes into it. Before they even started I said “forget about it, one of the seats works and I will make a service appointment”. That said, they were courteous and fixed it.
4) Interior was also flawless
5) Odd driver door panel alignment on inside can be seen from outside. I would’ve complained, but since I had an hour, I looked at all of the other Ys and they ALL looked the same - so I let it go. I put a picture here as it’s interesting (to me).
6) Would’ve taken less than 10 minutes for delivery if the seat issue didn’t exist AND if I didn’t spend 40 minutes inspecting the car. Nobody rushed me and they were very helpful.
7) I have an XP90D and I was still amazed by how quick my MYLR is. Super fun to drive.
8) I’ve never been in a Y before. It does (obviously) feel markedly smaller inside compared to my X. That said, both my wife and kids remarked about how they felt they had more leg room in front and second row. There actually IS more leg room in the Y than the X, but head and hip room are noticeably smaller.
9) No passenger lumbar, yes auto dimming mirrors, normal headlights, etc.
10) No PPF or mudflaps. Fine by me as I am getting PPF on a large area anyway and mudflats cost $40.
11) I am very picky about sound and impressed by the sound quality. It’s excellent.
12) No rattles (yet)
13) Y VINs at SC being delivered ranged from 192 to 207. I will note there were four others in the 202 range like me and all had white interiors but different exteriors. Not sure how that relates to batching, but was interesting.
14) I ended-up using Alliant CU because their customer service was awesome and DCU’s sucked. To be fair, I am paying 2.24%, so 1% more, but DCU kept fumbling all over the place and they use a check which they send in the mail - seemed an odd way to buy a tech forward car. I literally applied to Alliant Wednesday night, and they were ready with funding today. I know they’ve focused on Tesla’s since at least 2016 and do a ton of them.
They (Alliant) have some way to access Tesla’s system so when the payment info wasn’t showing correctly for financing, the Alliant team changed it directly from the Tesla account (I didn’t give them my credentials) and pushed it through. No need to track down my SA, etc. I wanted the lower rate, but I can’t get over how inept the DCU folks were. Alliant was awesome and this is the second Tesla I’ve financed with them.
Apologies for the long post, but I’ve learned a great deal from folks here and wanted to try to pay it back a bit. Thanks to all for the guidance, patience, support! and good vibes along the way.

I'm in LA, put in for an order 3 days ago, he says I should get delivery this month. I've heard that CA deliveries are priorities at the end of every quarter to hit numbers. I ordered white, white interior, 3 rows. just changed from 20" to the 19" (either powder coating them or getting different ones). the debate is FSD up front at $10k knowing they are going to $14k, or wait for the subscription to launch. I was hoping subscription would be out by now.
After the horrible experience yesterday tesla made up for it. They surprised me with a home delivery this afternoon at my house. Rhyder the delivery specialist was amazing he helped me set everything up and answered all my questions. No issues other than some residue from the film that they wrap the car with. Worth the wait and aggravation… what a driving experience!!! I love it !!!
