That’s completely false. I added my Tesla as soon as the tab opened to upload the insurance. I then found a much cheaper rate with Progressive and jumped ship from Geico. Progressive issued insurance cards and there were no issues or hold ups with delivery.Just got off the phone with Geico to update my insurance and I'm glad I called. The rep I spoke with said customers have been telling her that when buying Teslas they aren't getting to schedule their delivery until they've uploaded proof of insurance with the car's VIN on it. So she put in an effective date of next week for me so I'd have something in there to get an insurance binder to upload. Then (at least in MA) Tesla has to send Geico a form to put in their system or the car can't be registered. She said that THEN that's when I should be able to schedule pickup. Until then it's impossible to register the car, so therefore it can't be delivered. Don't know how true this is, but she said she's seen it several times dealing with people who bought Teslas so I'm just passing the info on just in case it's accurate and people are in scheduling limbo.
