Not only did mine complete after yours, but I think my actual order was placed after yours as well. I think this means mine got on a truck to hit end Q1. Had I ordered when you did, mine would be at the rail yard too. Tesla assumed the train shipment would not be delayed... I'm still betting yours will be in the next 7 days. The stock market rules Tesla right now, and if yours is off the train, they know exactly how long it will take you to get it before months end. That's why some of those Florida ones are the way.

That's fast. Is Tesla churning that quickly through all the 1+ year old reservations? What VIN are we at now?
Mine was arriving by rail yesterday supposedly. That means it took it approximately 12 days by train from cali. Hopefully it made it on your truck by some sort of luck. They tentatively scheduled me for 3/28 delivery DB SC.
Mine started production 3/14 and has been there ever since. I think they are prioritizing long distance orders to meet Q4. I'm in Utah and hopefully I will get it by next week but man some cars are out of production in less than a week. I'm going on 10 days now in production which seems on the high side of things from looking at the spreadsheet.
Ok here we go! Delivery tomorrow! Did not think it was going to happen, but the looooooong 55 day-wait comes to an end!

Yes, it changed. I don't remember the phrasing, but something along the lines of "it has arrived and the team is busy getting it ready for you".
May I ask how you know when the car arrived in Birmingham? Did your DS tell you?
My car arrived in Birmingham on 11 March. Per my DS, it was "born" March 2 (that when it was activated). Since March 11, it has been sitting in Birmingham waiting on transhipping to Decatur, which is all of about 160 miles from Birmingham. I'm really getting perturbed that cars built and shipped (even by the same rails mine shipped on) after mine are being delivered, and I'm left waiting with no idea at this point when mine will show up.
Considering the waits people have with repair parts and the delivery snafus, it seems apparent that, while Tesla may build a fine automobile, their logistics department leaves a lot to be desired in terms of performance.

I think that's mostly location dependent. There are just some places that are harder to get to. Maybe they should offer a FedEx option for an additional cost. Flatbed from the factory to your door.
Personally, I thought their logistics in CA was outstanding.
Brunton, I think you need to start calling Fremont and create some noise! Or ask for a different DS. There is a toll-free number on the Tesla website. I am sure that this would trigger a call from Fremont to your SC to find out why you are not getting updates, or your car for that matter. My DS said he was able to "influence" the schedule somewaht... whatever that meant. But the DS not knowing is inexcusable.
From these boards we have learned that most (all?) of the cars to the entire SouthEast go to Birmingham, AL. That is from VA to FL and points west and in between. That is a lot of cars and millions of dollars of capital that are tied up there for prolonged periods of time and that suggests significant logistical problems.
