Current Delivery Times

[Mpzona11]

Made it all the way to Mt. Kisco for my delivery only to find out that my car has a paint chip in the front bumper.

Unfortunately I have to take delivery as I have no way home to Rochester and don’t want to have to come all the way back.

They are telling me it will take up to 2 weeks to get the bumper into my local service center to have it out on which also screws up my plans for ceramic and PPF next week. Not to mention I’m nervous the paint won’t match my white exactly.

Such a happy day turned south.

I have a couple thoughts here:


1. Can't take your NEMA outlet with you, so it is a sunk cost. I can take my WC with me, so only installation is sunk (this makes it sting a little less)
2. WC can manage multiple cars charging down the line
3. I am a worrier/preparer, and have a second baby on the way. A couple extra mph helps set my mind at ease. Will I need that extra 3 miles to make it to the hospital for delivery or to rush a kid to the ER? Probably not, but who knows!

Despite the priority I listed these in, it's mostly #3 for me.

I completely understand that and everyone has their reasons for the Wall Connector for sure. For me though, a 14-50 outlet is less than $10 so not a big deal as far as not being able to take it with you. The wire to run from the breaker to the outlet is the most expensive part. But that still pales in comparison to the wall connector. I do like the way it looks, and I like that you can leave the mobile connector in the car instead, but for the occasional road trip I just take the mobile connector with me just in case. Otherwise, it just stays plugged in all the time in the garage.

Maybe it’s the tow package. If so, I would removed it.

Exactly! She did mention tow in combination with my color combo was very rare. I would have totally been willing to pay the extra $200 to buy it after the fact if I would have known that would cause significant delays to my order (although I think the blue/white/7 is the real problem - tow hitch just adds to the rarity that much more). It is frustrating that they can't provide more info...I have lost way more than $200 in trade-in value on our Sequioa since it has taken so long to get our MY.

@GoGators! Ordered on 8May21. I would absolutely NOT edit the order in any way this close to a VIN. This would increase update his price to current pricing and play Russian Roulette with possibly being sent to the back of the line.

That's awesome for you, and I'm glad you got to test drive it, but I'd be pissed if someone was using my car for test drives!

Haha, yep! We said the same thing!! It was all very strange and definitely solidified that customers aren’t Tesla’s priority

Here is my complete EDD history with delivery set for 26th. Hopefully nothing gets pushed out. Looking at 84 days from order date.

everyone has to do whats right for their situation, so absolutely do what you feel comfortable with. For me it was a cost benefit situation because the mobile connector only pulls 32A, that meant only needing 40A to the outlet, so that reduced the cost of the install, and still provides me with enough juice to feel comfortable, but thats my situation.

Do I think the wall charger looks awesome, hell yeah I do! But I did opt to have them install home surge protection vs the wall charger, so that gave me piece of mind as well.

Especially with the EDD so close and at a window under 20 days. @GoGators! Has to be getting a VIN any day!

No update on EDD here either. been sitting at 9/8 - 9/28 for at least a week still.

We’re taking delivery at the Littleton SC. Our EDD has been 9/2-9/22 since August 13. We took a test drive last week for fun in Nashville and she was showing a “soft date” of 9/12 for our order. Maybe our cars will be truck buddies

Just got a call from the BMW dealer. We custom ordered a X3M for my wife 3 weeks ago. It went through production and was shipped to the dealership. It's in and ready to be picked up.

Seems they're not having parts shortages.

I've been reading Octavia Butler's Parable of the Sower series. It's really good with great new concepts/ideas and still surprisingly relevant.

Thanks. I'll have to add this one to the to read list.

MSM & black to Mt Kisco ordered on 5/31. I think we’re in the same (ignored) boat.

Still hanging on to the same dates 9/13 - 9/30. I hope that isn't 2022!

[EngProf]

I did ask Tesla if they could do something to make it right and they gave me some kind of charging adapter that gives you 30 miles per hour as opposed to the regular one. It’ll be nice for the road but I have the wall connector installed at my home. I guess something is better than nothing.

 

[yorktwn]

Look at all these REDS.

I just realized that car we drove was a 228 VIN. That seems pretty “old” given that VINs being assigned now are in the 254s. I wonder what was going on with it that took so long for it to be delivered. It was a MYLR5, MSM, white interior, no tow, no fsd. I can’t remember what wheels.
