Current Delivery Times

[Noixd]

Pretty sure you should accept the delivery but the financial terms are set since you let them hit your credit. Changing anything like the monthly payment/ down payment amount would probably result in requiring another credit application.

This is incorrect. You can change it!

3/4 EMT with compression fittings and 6 awg THHN are your friends. Don’t use romex, overpriced for this.

* unless you're running the circuit through a wall or ceiling. In that case, use romex.

In my case I have to cut open the entire length of our basement ceiling's drywall. Of course, the ceiling joists run perpendicular from the panel to the garage. So it's the more expensive romex for me.

Can I change it online or do I need my SA to do it?

Another Acworther, guess I'll be keeping an eye out for your stormtrooper Y! Hope you get your VIN soon

thanks man. been seeing quite a few Teslas in Acworth lately.

 

[MattDJupiter]

At least when you get yours I’ll know they had the parts for most of mine.

Anything is possible in this strange world known as the Tesla ordering process - including you getting your car before me!

 

[eagle_eye]

Is this the reason why our y's are delayed. Smh

so I've finally found the person who has a similar DIY setup as me! Have you found any good videos of the process going from the basement to the garage? Those approximately 2 feet are the only issue I have with doing this on my own.

I'd suggest hiring an electrician if you're unsure. My father owned an electrical contracting business for 40 years, so I learned a lot just by watching him. Still, while I'm running the wiring I will hire an electrician to pull the permit and do the work in the panel. Simply from an insurance standpoint, 240v and "homeowner did it himself" is grounds for immediate claim denial should anything happen.

That said, we had a new construction home built in 2016. I took pictures of every wall, wire, water line and HVAC duct while it was being built, so I have a good idea of how to get into my garage. Just a straight run in the basement from panel to below garage is about 70' of wire and ceiling cutting. I'll be drilling a hole through each joist to run the wire through, then go up into the garage. Luckily, my panel is in a smaller area that isn't drywalled so I'll bring that end of the wire to the panel, roll it up and leave it for the electrician to terminate.

Of course, I decided to get a Tesla about 6 months after painting and finishing the entire basement.

We are drilling a hole in a joist and exiting the basement through a wall in the stairwell. From there it is up the wall in conduit and over to the car spot in the ceiling. Down the wall in conduit.

No changes today. Same EDD for over a week now.

 

[CharlesCastle]

Got one! I can't wait to have a glowing reminder of not having my car installed on my wall for ~60 days (assuming it takes me 30 days to get it installed)!!

I've had that beautiful constant reminder for close to 45 days now!

I had to call my SA to make the request to change down payment on my financing. took about 4 hours and I received a text and email that it was updated and to review new loan terms in my account.

I've seen a blue Y on 92 fairly often lately

 

[PhillyGal]

If the fire department has never come to your house related to your NEMA 14-50, are you even a Tesla owner?

Just kidding. Kids, if your electrician installs your outlet upside down, do NOT attempt to use brute force to turn it right side up. 6g wires do not like to be bent/twisted. Ask me how I know...

 

[Itztrho]

still october this mornig

 

[dnstommy]

One week from delivery date, car still in Texas, 2100 miles from delivery site. Sounds like this delivery is going south fast. Dang it.

 

[PatrickTM]

Thanks I am leasing and not changing the term limit or amount of miles allowed, so not changing the financing terms just the down payment Amount I want to change.

My suggestion: call your SA today and explain your updated down payment amount. If they don't respond, call big Tesla and get someone on the line. I would not delay the "proceed with delivery" button too long.

 

[MattDJupiter]

I had been holding steady at 11-31 October for over a week. Just got updated to generic "October".
