Yea, I got it last Wednesday. But from what I've googled my car will be shipped on a train to Alabama, and then loaded onto a car carrier for the rest of the trip to NC. I'm expecting it to take 2-3 weeks from June 8th.

I'm not sure. I found a post from someone in the Charlotte area and he explained how his was transported. Then someone from Alabama chimed in to say he lives near the depot and sees the hundreds of cars sitting out there all and leaving on trucks all the time.
I can't find the Charlotte guy's thread but here's another.
How Tesla ships by rail to East coast
There are multiple production lines, each may be working off a different VIN range. It’s possible one production line is shut down for some issue, or it’s also possible a car is nearly finished but fails a QC check and goes back in for rework. In that case, it could be a good sign - maybe they caught a paint issue and fixed it for example. There are just so many supply issues and tons of other unknowns which could cause this, it seems like quite a stretch to assume your car was rejected by a previous customer based solely on the VIN number and production date.
I think it’s easy to forget that the data you see in this thread represents like 0.01% of the outstanding orders. They are making what 300K+ cars/quarter, and there are maybe like 50 people active in this thread?
Anybody else getting pressured to schedule an appointment even if we dont know if we can make it?
Yesterday I got the text saying schedule delivery. My EDD went from August - September to schedule delivery for next week. I am frantically attempting to sell my current car so I can get my new one. However, they keep texting me saying you must schedule or we will give up your car.
What is the downside if I schedule and then cannot take delivery?

If you have your phone set to autorotate just turn it to landscape and the page loads more like a desktop site.

Today is the day. I didn’t get mine till like 4pm yesterday so it isn’t only a morning thing
They will give it to someone else. Just use carmax they will buy it immediately or vroom for your used car sale
I tried Carvana, Vroom, and Shift. All were extremely low ($25k) for a car worth far more. I have an appointment today with a couple local places that are offering $40k to $43k and will then schedule the delivery of the new car.
Still waiting for Tesla's offer, but I assume it will be low as well. Fingers crossed its $40k and then its a super easy deal.
