Never pay until you inspect. I kept getting pushy texts to pay up in the app or risk delayed delivery, but I trusted my comrades here. Went with low expectations and was very pleasantly surprised, read above, Friday AM is dead season for deliveries in CMH apparently.

Picked up today. Mobile charger included. Michelin tires & Matrix headlights.
There were some imperfections in the paint, they created a service appointment to get them taken care.

OH here, UMC/charger included, front license plate holder with hardware also in trunk, though not required anymore in this state.
I seriously doubt they will. It is far easier to let me inspect the car then to attempt to start the delivery process all over again with someone else. The power of the path-of-least-resistance.And they won’t have any problems with someone else doing so
What was you your vin? Trying to figure out if 338xxx or newer is coming with the charger.
GRADUATION DAY
Tesla brought me my T-Bone today. I know all of the connotations around the name T-Bone for a car but he told me that is the name he wants. He sort of sounded like George Costanza when he spoke to me.
Michelin tires
Matrix Headlights
Ryzen chip
CCS adapter enabled
No Mobile Connector :-( (Glad I bought one when I did)
This car is more than I need and more than I deserve. Body gaps and lines were perfect all the way around. If there was a gap, misalignment, issue anywhere I could not find it. Car was clean inside and out.
Tesla rep that dropped it off was very nice and knew everything about the car. He answered several questions and even provided answers to questions I had not yet thought about. He told me he would stay as long as I needed to help me. He waited until I told him I felt I no longer had questions or needed his help before ordering his Uber. Felt like he was no pressure. Overall, this buying experience has been light years ahead of even my best dealership experience. For those second guessing home delivery and if you are okay with a few extra miles, I say don't worry about it and do the home delivery.
I drove it to get lunch and the one-pedal driving took some getting used to but by the time I was making my return trip home, I had it down. The A/C worked very well. It is 104 outside today. Ride is smooth and soaked up bumps that my Focus ST and F250 used to jar my body.
Also, this car is going to get me into trouble. I cannot imagine what the Performance version of this car is like but this car is fast. I mean FAST!
Good luck to all those awaiting a car. I can't begin to thank all of you on this board for being so supportive to everyone and never getting noses bent out of shape over a comment or reply. This community is by far the best forum community I have ever been a part of. Speaks volumes.

Congrats!! This thing is amazing and i love hearing about everyone's individual stories when picking up. Stay safe and enjoy
Congrats! I think this is the first report of no mobile connector though. I didn’t check for mine I just saw that there was a bag in the trunk and figured it was in there. I will have to check later.
I agree this car is fast and will likely get me into trouble!

So about that. If you install the front plates with the double sided tape, there was alot of reports of where if you try to remove it, the tape will rip off the paint along with the plate. So essentially, if you put it on, it stays on. That is, unless you want to repaint your bumper lol

Quick question, now that I'm in my two week EDD, should I be applying for Tesla's loan calculations or should I wait until I get a VIN?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Wait for a VIN. You can have multiple pushbacks resulting in multiple 2 week windows.
Got a text today asking if I’d like to take delivery two days early so I’m picking mine up tomorrow morning. I’m vin 338xxx so I’ll let you guys know if the charger is in there. My SA said it wouldn’t be, but we’ll see.
Yup this. I did it last month thinking no way I wouldn't have the car by September. Famous last words

Texas requires a front plate, but thankfully, Tesla did NOT install it when I picked up my car. The front plate ruins the look of the car, not to mention the aerodynamics. I went with the Snap Plate and am very happy with it. I only install the front plate when driving the highways of Texas, the local police really don't care. Rather pricey, but I think it is worth it.
