Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

[ATG1]

It's a couple of days old, but...

Now I know why my EDD keeps changing... I think I see my car at mark 1:21

 

[fishers]

Yeah, you can see my delivery report from an earlier post. I believe the check should be made out to "Tesla, Inc." and the memo should have your order number in it, RNxxxxxx. I added my full name to the memo as well.

Thank you jhirsch123

FWIW: this is certainly the fastest I've ever gotten a response from tesla. guess I'll just pause the policy and go back to obsessing over the app like a crackhead with a huge rock locked in a bulletproof glass box lol

I got this response:
“Good Morning,
We reached out to our transport team. Your Model Y is still in production at Gigafactory Texas. Your estimated delivery window should reappear once your Model Y has finished production.”

Maybe promising?

[tess123]

My EDD got pushed again today to 2/28 - 3/14. Im back down to a 2-week window so hopefully VIN will follow soon.

What was your Order Date?

 

[monkft]

Mine is the same.
MYLR W/B/19 TOW
OD1/20

my EDD shortened at some point today and is hopefully a good signal that you'll get updated as well based on us both being in the midwest (I'm in IOWA) and ordering the same time.

MYLR R/B/19 no options
OD 1/19 (but noticed the order form shows 1/20)
EDD 1: Jan-Mar
EDD 2: Mar 4-31
EDD 3: Mar 5-19 (updated Feb 22)

just heard from a colleague at work that Tesla drivers are the new Prius drivers.....could this be true LOL

As a guy who owned three Priuses before I went full EV, I don't consider that a bad thing...but I also don't buy the comparison. Teslas are simply much nicer and sexier than a Prius could ever be.

Hi, NovaY,

Thanks for the name - just searched and their pre-cut price is definitely good. I am thinking to get the front bumper only. Did you select "Remove parking sensors from the pre-cut'? As for DIY - I do not think this is super difficult - doable. A local PPF installers asked for $500 for the front bumper only whereas the pre-cut from North Tints ranges around $250 (depending on the brand). Thanks!

Yea, for 2023 Model Y, there should not be holes for the parking sensors. I also recommend checking on eBay as North Tints also sells there, and sometimes at a better price.

The front bumper on a Tesla is not too bad. It's mostly flat and there aren't a lot of inward curves or bevels. I did a front wrap on an AMG once and the bumper was a nightmare.

Basically Tower is indirectly saying "Don't come to us. We don't have any more money to lend" lol. Try Armco Credit Union. It has decent rates.

About to bail on Tower Federal. They haven't responded to messages and calls for 2 business days. Then I read the reviews and this is sounds common. Maybe I'm impatient, but time is ticking and Tesla is waiting on them to send the money so we can schedule delivery... Just to recap my experience: call wait times 30-50 minutes, sometimes you can hear they're annoyed to take your call, the auto loan division sometimes rings forever with no answer, and once when I actually got connected with someone they dropped the call after 10 seconds of silence, now this. Might be a sign of things to come

Crazy as it sounds, Tower Credit Union finally circled back to tell me my bank account has been approved to open and I just need to docusign some forms. This is after applying with them in mid Jan when my loan was approved. They did tell me they will still honor the rate despite the rate has increased a few points. If this holds true, I'll just refinance my loan with them.

Got it there are two regen breaking levels you are referring to "Standard" and "Low". The OP's question was in regards to stopping modes.

Tesla says "Hold maximizes range and reduces break wear by continuing to provide regen breaking at lower speeds than creep and roll."

Hold will bring you to a stop and keep you stopped. At low speeds, roll and creep will let you keep going so you get less regen as you have to hit breaks instead of using the motor to slow/stop you.

East or West........HOLD is the best ! lol

[memfist]

OD: 1/20 MSM/B/19 LR
Latest EDD (2/14): 3/26-3/31

At the time of my latest EDD, my order was for white. I switched it to MSM 2/19 (I typically only buy used cars so took advantage of picking my desired color). The color change did not adjust my EDD. I did text Tesla today to inquire about an anticipated change to EDD based on the color upgrade; they responded within 15 min saying that my EDD was not affected and I should still expect it "late march/early April." So just waiting for my EDD to get pushed out more now.

I had a nightmare because of this forum.

My car is being home delivered this Saturday, but in my dream I was already driving it and the car was horrendous. The steering wheel was shaped like a pretzel, the windshield was all bubbly and I couldn’t see through it, and the handling was really weird.

SO I do have this question. My last Tesla I picked up at a service center. How should I prep for home delivery? Is it the same idea? Do I get to inspect the car before accepting?

In the same boat as you, fingers crossed for smooth sailing! Good luck to you
