Go to your account management page, and you’ll probably be able to submit payment info now. You also should see your MVPA.

Yeah, I happened to see the MVPA and VIN because I logged in -- not because I got a text or email. Payment made, now waiting for delivery....

I have an identical configuration and VIN range, ordered last July. It will be interesting to see who gets delivery notification sooner. I placed the order sooner, but yours has a longer delivery time (I may pick up in Fremont). I suspect yours will be built first, but we'll see.
Darn it! I just received an email that Tesla finally removed the hitch I asked them to remove 8 days ago to try to get quicker delivery. I also checked and my VIN is gone.
Oh no
sorry to hear that. I raid few posts that Tesla said hitch is installed at SC, apparently that’s not the case.

Quite a few hitch orders now have VINs, but AFAIK nobody has received their car yet.
Questions not answered yet:
Questions not answered yet:
- Installed at factory or SC?
- What size receiver tube?
- Software update to enable a "tow" mode through the interface?
- Is the door for the bumper opening removable?
I understand the receiver tube is 1.25", which is consistent with the tow specs I heard about. The next tube up (for heavier towing) is 2".
A friend just got his Y this week -- same specs, ordered his 2 weeks after mine (Feb '20). Apparently it was ~1 week from getting the VIN to "touchless" delivery. So I'm hoping for delivery this week!
I'll post info about the tow mode software once I get my hands on it. I have a lightweight aluminum trailer that I'll test.

Virtually all anecdotal evidence and info provided from SA/DAs indicate it's a 2" receiver tube, the same as Model X. Model X w/22" wheels is rated for Class II, w/20" it's Class III. 2" tubes provide much better flexibility and more options.

I think I'm about a week behind you getting mine with the hitch.
