Yeah exactly. Anger or animosity over this is a sad joke. This is a completely imaginary problem. It’s not like they’re jumping line, in fact they are literally delaying their orders....Not even faintly a real world issue...a few dozen cases with no real effect on the hundreds of thousand orders in the pipeline. Some posting stories about holds clearly had real conflicts with holidays or vacations and you could tell because many of them were fine with getting the car before Jan. 1.I haven’t had a single hold and I have been impatiently waiting, but to say to a customer who has waited 4-5 months for the car you only have 72 hours to pick it up, with no leeway, is utterly ridiculous. It sounds like you are saying after waiting as long as some of us have, if my delivery date coincides with my kids’ spring break and I’m out of town for the week, oh well get back in line…it’s my fault?!? You can miss me with that.
And there’s no question Tesla has to have some method for people to put orders on hold for legit reasons, there is no other way to do this.
