I'm a new member here and I believe I cannot PM yet. I do not need a referral code necessarily but would like to understand from someone with experience how they approached the financing with DCU. Timing with delivery date, rates, paperwork involved, what to expect day of delivery again from a finance perspective etc.

I will tell you this dont enable that speed limit warning LOL I heard a chime going off like ever few minuets
EDD has been alternating between late June and late July. Today it flip-flopped back to June 20 - 30. We ordered on 5/9 Mother's Day and it would be awesome if VIN comes on 6/20 Father's Day. A Dad can dream, right?
My 5/16 order EDD's had been all over the place but the latest ever was June 20-30. Today moved to July 19-August 8th - same day that all the demo's came available again. So Tesla being a Tech company and probably using multiple algorithm's on customer behavior it wouldn't surprise me that the EDD date movement is intentional. I've seen a number of posts here and elsewhere where frustrated people have given up and purchased a demo rather than wait - and the demo's are easy moves - less transport for Tesla right at the end of the quarter. Nice pop in sales without much effort. No proof at all but for sure they know what % of customer's check their accounts daily, are refreshing, contacting etc - and they know which customers are more likely to give up and take something that they originally didn't want. Not saying that the customer loses because I'm also seeing that many are satisfied with the demo purchase. But it is easy to manipulate that anxious behavior if you have the data.

So a friend of mine ordered 05/02 - and he has his delivery date set for next week June 16. From my calculations and over thinking it seems like 5-6 weeks is the time frame. Totally okay with the 5-6 weeks... Hoping that holds to be true. Cause the dates on my account make me wanna throw up lol.

I honestly think that is exactly what they're doing.. Regardless the cars are gonna get sold and whoever goes for the demo that ordered car will go to someone else in line. Its a win win situation. And they won't loose. And its crazy to see that the demos are all gone within 24 hours. So it makes total sense. Thats why im trying to be AS STRONG AS POSSIBLE AND WAIT IT OUT. LOL.
Ordered a Y performance on 5/18. Just got the schedule delivery text for 6/17. Less than a month
So I finally took delivery of my MYP on June 5th. For those looking for some delivery info just trust the later dates that Tesla initially gave you else you're going to be on a roller coaster ride with all these date changes. Below is a list of my date changes. Delivery was a little rough though so don't go with high expectations.

When I initially accepted Tesla's trade in offer, the order summary did not account for the tax savings when applying a trade in value in my state. It was adjusted later - not sure who does the actual adjustment. You should call your SA or delivery specialist to confirm the proper amount.
Ordered a MY for my wife on May 19th, got email and call today, car arrived( June 8). we originally told them we didnt need til end of Aug-early Sept.
Taking anyway and surprising my wife on June 12

Hopefully good news here…I called them and they let me know the vehicle is in transit but should be arriving today! I have a pick up scheduled for Friday at 2:00! Now am sweating a redo of my trade in value because I went over 1000 miles since originally submitting it.

That is crazy considering you literally have the most basic config you can get. Have you reached out to your SA or anyone to get and explanation?
Hmm, maybe that's the secret...make them think you don't even WANT it right away. Play a little hard-to-get with Tesla logistics.
Seriously though, congrats.

I am begining to suspect this also. My EDD moves back daily, meanwhile they are dumping the demo Y’s left and right every other day, mostly Performance Y’s too. Great for an upsell to someone who now has to wait a long time.
Alternatively could be tied to shipment scheduling from factory to SC. With the MS event date on the 10th, maybe there have been less trucks going out in anticipation of mass shipping MS to the SC.

Placed my order exactly three weeks ago (5/18/21). My EDD has done a bunch of jumping around. Originally, June 21 to 30, but is now July 2 to 22, and has been stuck there for close to a week. I'm still hopeful to receive my Model Y by the end of the month. Supposedly, there's going to be a lot of deliveries in the last week of June in California. I did check existing inventory late last night and saw my exact config, white with no frills, but it was a Unicorn standard range. Price was $43,500. I clicked BUY because I was curious but when I did nothing happened. Refreshed the screen and it was gone. Huh. I know range is king but it was tempting. Guess it wasn't meant to be.
I'm not going crazy with modifications this time, like I did with my MSM Model 3, but I did purchase the Tesmat mattress last night (with privacy screen and sheets) for camp mode fun! It's backordered until mid-July. I chose the Tesmat for the sheer convenience of keeping it stored away in the sub trunk... love that! I know there are thicker, more comfortable mattresses out there, but the bulkiness steered me away. Anyway, back to the EDD... hoping it's sooner than later for all of us! Fingers crossed.

Just got mine as well!! But had to talk to the hand
I guess i'll try again tomorrowGot the text today! Scheduled pickup for this Thursday at noon. My delivery estimate still says June 11-17, and the scheduler gave me a choice between tomorrow, Thursday or Friday. Those were the only options so yes, there is a 3-day time limit.
