Just wanted to report in on my experience. Took delivery yesterday. The financial side of the transaction was simple. I did the ACH transaction right there in the delivery center on the DS's computer...it took seconds and it was done. No need to do this days in advance, such as is being discussed here. (At least in this particular location.) That said, I'm leasing. I suppose if this were a full-purchase w/o lease or financing, you may need to have your ducks in a row prior to driving away.
The delivery was thorough and "just enough" - he hit all the high points and taught me things I did not know.
The car was connected to the app before I even got there. (I have Tesla solar, so I already had working credentials on the Tesla app). Auto pilot seemed ready to use within 10 miles, I had heard previously that it was 50 or more.
There are 3 minor issues - one discovered at delivery and two others. The one at delivery already has a part on order, and the two post-delivery are fit/finish issues which I'll drop by the SC for....certainly not enough to ruin the excitement of the delivery.
The torque is absolutely unbelievable, and the electric driving experience sells itself. It just seems like "the way to go"..... I haven't been in my ICE since, and it will feel odd to hit "start" and fire up the V8.....
Good luck to everyone else who is waiting. If you have questions, by all means ask.
