This has nothing to do with poaching guys from Toyota or other brands. They are literally in a plant where Toyota taught GM how to build cars “the Toyota way”. Tesla is GM in the 70s. It is all about volume and NO ONE is allowed top stop the assembly line. Absolutely no one. Car is dented, ship it. Model Y with model 3 tail lights, ship it. Missing a speaker, ship it.
And all this is just dumped on service to fix. So those guys are crushed and deal with really pissed off customers. If Tesla and specifically ELON himself would not be so petrified of missing a delivery estimate, thus destroying his wealth, then and only then would they fix this. If they hired all those QC guys as you suggest, those guys would make recommendations and would then be fired. Just like PR was fired for making recommendations that Elon tweet less.

Could you maybe go to a different thread and piss on our dreams there? I mean, dude… serious buzzkill in a thread about people waiting on cars they just ordered.

OK, this is my graduation day post. The car was delivered yesterday, but late in the afternoon, so I had little time to inspect it. I checked the outside, drove it around the block and put it in the garage, then connected it to our wifi network and went to dinner and bed. Had a software update waiting this morning--they don't deliver them with the latest software? WTF? Anyway, I charged it, drove it some, went over it carefully this morning with my checklists, and couldn't find anything to gripe about except for a slightly low hood at the front fascia when closed, so it's a keeper. I've heard that's an easy adjust of the latch height, but it doesn't even bother me.
So I set about making it mine by installing my Weathertech mats and custom matte carbon fiber option package that were waiting in the garage. Here's my inside pics (exterior shots in my last post) and I'm out of here, except for watching if Flatbroke gets his car. I'll be hanging in the driving dynamics and modifications forums from now on. Yowza! Cowabunga!

Headed to bed, took 2 shots of 60 weight Dino Oil, and rubbed transmission fluid on the Cousins. Have the bed circled in solar Led lights. And pointed East. Toward the Fremont plant. I urinated on the big block Chevy 4x4 outside and am at a loss for what to do next. I will take a car without a speaker and 3 taillights at this point.

I came in at $146 with $500 deductibles. I thought mine gonna be more.
I just got a quote today for $900 bucks with labors and parts. I thought the quote was high but seeing yours, I don't feel so bad
Agreed with you 100%. For what I paid, I expected my own concierge. But alas, it's Tesla. Tesla knows they have a cult following so they couldn't care less.
