Not trying to be agitator, but has anyone here ever ordered a car new from another domestic brand? I'd say Tesla does an okay job compared to a lot of others. A coworker ordered a Challenger hellcat and once the order was in, they couldn't even nail down a month it would come, much less a week. They basically told him to go away until they called him telling him the car was built and shipped.
Yes, Tesla operates with almost entirely a made to order business, but still, I think they do okay. I knew there was uncertainty in timeframes when I gave them my money, so I made arrangements to be without a car for a couple months if they pushed out delivery dates. If I get the car before the end of the year, I'll count my self lucky and move on.
Would I appreciate a bit more info when ordering a $50k car, you bet. Am I going to hammer them for pushing a few weeks, nah. I'm more concerned about getting a quality vehicle when it arrives. Cheers.
