Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[GrnSqrl]

Order moved from June 21-30 to August this morning!

I can't wait to see what the next 5 days will be!

Well that’s not good. Makes me think my 6/21-30 is a temporary stop on the way to August town.

Sorry, yes, 40 amp. Put that on the earlier post but failed to do so on the one you read.

Thank you, this will be my first EV and learning a lot here. I had assumed I would have to buy and install the Tesla home charger, now I'll probably just have a 240V outlet installed in the garage like you did.

I’m still blank for the last week or two...

For all you peacockers blowing an extra $40k for the Plaid to get to 60 in .2 seconds faster, the hilarious part is that it seems literally non of the commoners can even tell the difference between which cars are plaid and which aren't. Talk about a waste of money! Now you won't even be able to peacock!

Why the need to bash other people's choices? I don't understand. My comment applies to either group disrespecting the other.

Now that’s one of the funniest misconceptions I’ve heard in a while. What do you picture a track day is? The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift?

I picture a track day as a lot of white-haired geriatric folks, dressed in baggy shorts and tee-shirts, fast walking in an oval around an athletic field.

Is that incoerect?

 

[EVonly]

OMG. The monkey made it to PA! Overnight, went from blank to 6/21-30!! Same exact progression as @NOLA21SGuy

Should I believe this or is it more sugar?!

I would be reluctant to believe it because I had June 22 - June 30 on Thursday. Ask me what I have now.

NOTHING!

Yes! I believe you're on the same roller coaster! Hold on!

NOTHING!

Thanks for the reality check. I don’t like it but understand the logic. I just don’t know why someone would play around like this with dates that aren’t real? Kind of sux.

Anyone with their Plaid going to Shift Sector race at Willow Springs late June

Maybe not shift sector but im definitely taking mine to the No fly zone half mile in shafter once mine gets here.

 

[TNGuy99]

Ok, white exterior/black cf interior/arachnids Plaid ordered the day of the refresh announcement went from June (for a long time) to June 21-30 now to June 29-30th as of this morning.

My MSLR March order - blank since the day I placed order.
MS Plaid order placed a week ago- went from June to “June 24-30” delivery
It’s dishonest of Tesla to do this. People are waiting since last November with blank delivery.. and Plaid orders placed a week ago have delivery in June. They clearly don’t care.

Talk about a waste of money! Now you won't even be able to peacock!

Don’t assume people are only buying the Plaid for the prestige value, or as you say for peacocking purposes. I’m still on the fence and haven’t decided if I think the Plaid is worth the extra money. As you say, it is a significant sum to pay for the limited differentiation that is not readily noticeable.

For me, I would consider the Plaid knowing that I am purchasing the fastest production car in the world at a fraction of the cost of its ICE hypercar counterparts. It is all about performance and not about impressing people with a badge or showing people that I dropped an extra $40k. I would actually de-badge the car and have no desire advertising that I’m driving a Plaid. It’s about knowing that I own the highest performance model and never wanting for more.

I’m just the kind of guy that always wants the best of something and usually end up regretting it when there is another version that offers some additional performance or features that I didn’t buy. Money is relative and we are not all in the same place financially. To some people $40k is a years salary and to others it might be a single day in the market. Don’t knock other people’s choices because your financial situation might dictate that the extra $40k is a foolish decision. We all derive value from different things and there is no reason for you to bash other people for making a decision that might affect them in a different way.

I keep waffling and haven’t yet decided if it would be a foolish decision in my situation. I’m waiting until Thursday to see if there are any additional features we haven’t yet heard about. I’m sure I would be happy with either version.

I just got bumped back, now June 30 - July 20. Updating sig and spreadsheet.

My Wall Connector install is $1,200. I’m in Orlando where it’s generally cheap to get stuff done.

This was the cheapest of the standard three bids I solicited.

The steep price is the result of 100 feet of #6 Romex to get from my panel, through the attic, then down to the Wall Connector.

I paid FPL Home Services $421 here in S FL...I suggest you call some other electricians. That's crazy, unless they have to something more complicated for you and run wires all through your attic or whatever.

After a couple of weeks at 'June', I've now lost my estimated delivery field altogether

 

[Fabio]

I just got a ticket for the roller coaster. Very first delivery estimate of "June" (it was blank of "-" since March). LR order placed on 1/21.
Oddly I spoke with an SA in Palo Alto yesterday who told me no LS's were being produced until September (I've seen the videos and know it's not true).

 

[TNGuy99]

Tesla Delivery Monkey be like:

 

[JimLL]

Clearly we are not meant to see the pattern or logic behind who has which month, month with a week's range or blank! I think the only things we do know is that margin (Plaid vs. LR) matters, then color combo, then interior materials. Order date may be a distant 4th place. The end!

Just updated to June
