Current EDD is Aug 1 - Aug 15, and this is the 2nd time we've gotten a 2-week window. Hopefully this one sticks! Anyone else received a VIN recently? How far out from your EDD range did you get your vin
@micantony?
July 10 we went to a 2 week window for the first time. Then 3 days later got the first communication from “Tony” at Tesla regarding a potential trade in assessment. We were assigned a vin# later that afternoon.
So it all went fairly quickly.
Honestly, I think we were just fortunate to have the right build (MSM with tow) and the right location (atlanta area) at the right time of the quarter.
While at Tesla picking up, there were a lot of MSM Austin build MYLR, and another truck unloading. Atlanta must have gotten their slot in line and received truckloads from Austin here at the end of July.
We picked up from Kennesaw. Very nice location as far as space. Their service center is huge. They have 4 lifts and in the process of installing 4 more, so that should help with service request timelines in this part of Atlanta anyway (northwest burbs).
I will say, based on my experience, we’re going to see a shitload of MSM MYLR on the roads soon. Bunch of clones
. I would say 90% of the vehicles in Kennesaw were MSM. Of course, that may just be what they built in Austin first, so that’s what got delivered.

build quality looked great to me, but I am not terribly anal about the little things if we have any.
The main issue we ran into, that I have heard about elsewhere as well, is the difficulty in closing the front doors. You have to close with some force (a little more than what would be normal).
It’s kind of weird, if you have one of the rear doors open, the fronts close easily. So it’s a combination of the latch, design and also maybe a pressure issue of some kind. Something to be aware of.
lastly, the plastic housing behind the mirror rattles. Will have to figure out how to silence that, car is so quiet you can hear everything if it makes a sound.
Got our first update last night. We’re part of the Tesla family now. Looking forward to our first trip up to the mountains.
