Checked again just now. In twelve hours, it changed again: "has been built and is in transit from the factory", delivery window July 30-Aug 6. I'm picking up from the factory, so I don't know what exactly in transit means.

Have you considered ditching your Model S deposit and placing a new order for the Model X with white seats?

Nope! Okay one time but still nope.

X is not what I really want for now. If I stayed with an ICE vehicle it was probably going to be the MB S-class, not an SUV or cross-over.

My DS has been M.I.A. for about a week. @Austral, remind me... Where are picking up from? I'm at Tysons.

Tysons. 1200 hours. Boom.

You? 12 or 4?

By the way, DS said they would not de-badge me. Claimed it would "damage the paint work." Hahaha.

I don't have an appointment yet. I don't even know if my car will actually be delivered (or available) on the 3rd. My DS is in the wind and has left me feeling scared and alone.

I recommend a drive-by. I did once. Met my DS face-to-face. Anyone there (multiple DS people at Tysons) could help.

Ya, I was thinking about that. If nothing else, I get to see what the showroom looks like. The DC showroom is super tiny.

MyTesla is now showing delivery for 30 July-6 August. Confirmed DS appointment remains 3 August. So weird. <rolling eyes>

Woohoo!!! Welcome to the production party.

Relax, pull up a chair, and get ready to callous that finger from pressing F5

My way of dealing with this painful wait has been to keep busy. I have not even checked My Tesla page since getting production notice a couple days ago. . But i'm back on computer and heading over there right now after reading this forum again

 

[Chopr147]

AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Your estimated delivery window is August - Early September
It's probably sooner I know but, I would like to see a better date range.

AHHHH, I wonder if there is some training event going on. My DS has been fantastic about responding to emails within 24 hrs, but has been M.I.A. since before last weekend. I wouldn't be surprised if he was put of office doing the same (or on vacation). Good information. Thanks!

You may be right. My DS is out of Raleigh and training is in TN. Yours may be there also.

This isn't helping with me freaking out I got my VIN on the 5th... My DS did make it sound like I'm scheduled for production next week in the email I got from them today after asking if there was some delay in production (based on my date range changing, and another TMC member indicating production push out from their DS here).

 

[DGW222]

Your DS should have setup their email to auto-reply that they were out of town and the reason... Poor planning on his part, I know mine has done that during times when he's been out of town. Helps you be aware that there will be a delay in response and not freak out when you don't get any response after a few days.

Thanks. I did receive the automated reply "I'm out of the office ..... " on Wed. to my Sunday email.
Sigh.

 

[DGW222]

Taking delivery after work today! Black P90DL. Clock...moving....so....slowly....

Got to be exciting!!!!

 

[DGW222]

Just picked up my 60d yesterday. I am no longer obsessing over the delivery, but am constantly thinking about where I can drive it too.... Love this car

Thanks. Mine (60D) is scheduled for next week (early August). I do believe I'm more excited over this car than the Porsches I've owned.

 

[Austral]

Equivalent obsession for my 911ers. So odd. I must sort through this feelings next week (on the road, of course). :0)

@DGW222, see you on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Do the double flash.

That would be a fun road to have a Tesla on I'm originally from NC and definitely a beautiful drive/part of the state

You don't happen to have any insight when they will be back? My DS has been fantastic about returning emails within 24 hrs and I have not heard back from him since late last week. I'm considering calling the police and filing a missing persons report
