Exactly, and look at Tesla they can't even sell directly to me in Michigan.

Cant sell directly to customers in Connecticut either. Dealerships be hating on that for sure.
Oh and the most ironic of all at the moment. Texas where they build em but can't sell em.

Congrats!! Charlotte pickup? Glad to finally see someone in NC get a VIN! Been a while it seems...and another April order fulfilled which is really good to see. Hopefully they haven't forgotten about us early May orders

Well my EDD just moved to a 2 week window... only thing that sucks is that it moved to the right.
Yesterday: 8/22-9/16
Today: 9/16-9/30
I dont know if I should be happy or sad. I will just try to be calm.

I forget what year it was... 2016 maybe? that I drove my S though Michigan (Philly to Pittsburgh for a night, then Chicago for 2, then a night in Detroit, then 2 nights in Toronto, then home) and I remember feeling legit angry knowing my car couldn't be sold there.

I didn't know that. Is this why Tesla passes them through the delivery centers?
EDD has been shortening by a day since last week, now down to 8/30-9/10… hoping I get a VIN soon!

No. Here in Texas, I have to do all of the paperwork before the car enters the state and I cannot do any paperwork on Tesla's property. From what I understand, it's like I'm buying it from a person in NV.
Here's the article about the crazy Texas legislature that didn't discuss changing the laws so I won't be able to go to the Factory to pick up my ride for a few years.

Perhaps Tesla and Elon Musk thought that moving into the Lone Star state meant the rules would change. It seems now that can't happen until at least 2023.

Nice, really glad the windows returned to normal function. Any noticeable damage to glass or trim from this incident?
Also, I really hope the service team tries to find out what happened, and not just say "unable to replicate problem" and close the ticket.

Hopefully the wifes Y LR and my MYP is on the same truck as yours when its time for us! Fingers crossed for you!
Every customer wants their car as soon as possible. Don't blame Tesla's shite prioritization, poor planning, or global supply chain fiasco on other customers. If someone wants to pay more for a faster car that allows them to take delivery sooner, more power to them.
I am not willing to pay more for a car with thinner (summer) tires and stiffer suspension, because I know I'll have to spend even more money for new wheels/tires. However, I don't think Model Y Performance buyers who want their cars sooner are any more or less selfish than myself.
Frankly, my money is on P...
But I would love for the LR to come in first so that you get to suffer in jealousy
It's different now though, used to be we would have had to go to Cleveland, but now as long as we pay before it crosses the state line it can be delivered here now. I'm picking mine up in Clarkston, but I also can't use Tesla financing and have to use a third party CU we went with Tesla's recommendation of Alliant.

Today is my 100 day anniversary since ordering! 
Front date moved out a day, end date remained the same.
EDD is now Aug 29-Sep 10 for my May 8th #teamblue order. I feel like now that I have passed into triple digits waiting time I should qualify for a VIN this week

@eleven24 If I recall correctly, a customer is legally allowed to test drive a Tesla at a Tesla Gallery, purely for demo purposes. But the moment you try to talk about price with an employee, it becomes illegal because then it crosses the line into "sales". The employee will tell you to visit the website or call the 1-800 number that directs you to an out-of-state call center if you have any price/ordering questions.No. Here in Texas, I have to do all of the paperwork before the car enters the state and I cannot do any paperwork on Tesla's property. From what I understand, it's like I'm buying it from a person in NV.

The law really is that dumb.
I wonder if those that live in Texas will get initial production of Giga Texas MY given they have to ship the car across state lines and then ship it back. I wonder if it’s more economical to send the Fremont ones to Texas customers or if they will drive across LA, NM, OK, or AR to then turn right around and head back to a Texas SC.
huh, didn't realize today was day 100...Today is my 100 day anniversary since ordering!

I'm curious if many of the state representatives running out of the state to Washington DC to avoid discussion and voting on some bills contributed to the legislature not bringing this item to the House floor.No. Here in Texas, I have to do all of the paperwork before the car enters the state and I cannot do any paperwork on Tesla's property. From what I understand, it's like I'm buying it from a person in NV.
