That's nearly the same as mine - hoping a run of white on white 7 seaters happens in Q3

I went with the juice box as well. No permits needed. Whomever said that at Tesla didn’t know what they were talking about.
Have a question about payment.
In 2018, a family member took delivery of a Model 3 and paid with I think a cashier's check or something. We handed that check/piece of paper over when we took delivery in person.
In 2021 for the Model Y, if paying cash, is that still possible? Or is it wire transfer done online? Just wondering how a cash payment should be done these days.

yeah I don't see many of those in the spreadsheet. so you probably just got lucky from a nearby hold/rejection and you were just the next possible match.

Ahh...I didn't realize that was even an option. Maybe because here in Texas we have to pay prior to the car entering the state. At least, that is what I have read.
That does make sense. In their first text message it was specified that "you have been matched to a vehicle", I live in SF Bay Area so close to the Fremont plant too. If the delivery turns out fine, I should probably go get a lottery ticket.

Called Fremont again. 
They said their system expects my car to be delivered to Fort Myers, on the 22nd so i must be getting a VIN in the next 5-7 days if they plan on having it there by then. Luckily I've called every day to different locations on purpose and every one has the same answer so there has to be some truth to this.
After 62 days of fear, hope, excite, despair, ecstatic, bad dreams, good dreams, and the wacky roller coaster ride of buying a Tesla, i am starting to mellow out, since i feel like its actually coming very soon.

Nice! I have called multiple locations and only been told "we can't see anything more than you". Funny how some can and others can't.

They never ever answer when I call - what number do you select after dialing?

I would think that you should be getting a VIN soon.
I ordered on 5/20 as well. I got a VIN a couple of days ago. My SA confirmed today that the car is en route to Chicago.
Thanks! Sept is still a way's out for me but wanted to make sure I have things ready. Don't want to run into a situation where I don't select the right option or something fast enough and lose the car.

What TMK26 said, if you can provide those digits they should be something like 255XXX or something. That would give a ballpark of when the car was born. Also a car that was rematched or rejected isn't always a bad thing, 7 seaters seem to be sparse so the stars just probably aligned properly
I was assigned a 241XXX a few days ago with an EDD of 8/7 - 8/17. My SA said it was going to be produced on the 31st. Check my account just now and my EDD is now 8/11-8/16. The timeline shrunk! I hope this is a good thing as I never saw this happen with the 3 other VINs I was assigned
