Wiki Model S Delivery Update

[norm]

Got update today that car is in transit with delivery date 15-22 Dec !!! Still have not received any info from DS. I contacted DS via email 2 weeks after I confirmed got a response in 2 days. DS said he or she ?? would keep me informed, no contact since ??
Think I will get a job as DS after car is delivered, must be a laid back position for some.

That is crazy expensive! I'm having my service upgraded to accommodate a new 100A breaker and 90A service to the HPWC. My breaker box has to be replaced, a new service line dropped from the pole to my house, about 30 feet of cable run from the box to where I want the HPWC installed, and all city permits and inspections. All in it's $2k and is being performed by the Tesla recommended electrician for my area. If he'd told me $10.5K, I would've just done the work myself and paid to have it inspected.

Wow, that's a really good price. I obtained 2 quotes from electricians (not recommended by Tesla) to upgrade my 100A panel to a 200A service panel, and then add in a 60A circuit and run cable about 20ft to where the Wall Connector is being installed. They needed to add a 60A disconnect by the wall connector because it was not in the line of sight. The 100A service panel was mounted on the outside of the house and the new 200A panel was put into the wall.

All in, I paid $2,425, and it was pretty close to the other bid, but the other electrician's quote did not involve putting the panel in the wall, which is more work. Bear in mind that I only have (4) 20A circuits and (1) 60A circuit, so the materials were not that expensive.

As a point of reference, I considered having cable put in that beefier and would accommodate a 100A circuit if I ever decided to go that route, and the cost difference would have been $150. I didn't do it, however, because my car on order only has a single charger and I don't anticipate buying a new Tesla for 6+ years.

Mine went into production today as well according to the site - but I didn't get an email...... wondering what are they telling you for a delivery date

I have an appointment scheduled on 12/20 to pick up the car in Costa Mesa, but I think that's just tentative because they don't actually know when the car will finish up (and be shipped). I would imagine our cars will be delivered together.

Today I received the "Your Tesla has entered production" email. My VIN/order confirmation date was on 11/15.

This gives me hope. I've been refreshing hoping to see that notification. I also confirmed 11/15, but I'm in Nor Cal.

Just talked to my DS, he is looking at a delivery date around 12/20. I got my loan finalized with Alliant CU today, and I can't imagine how easy it was to get a loan through them. Good timing for this Christmas present.

I just had my 400A main panel replaced with a dual-meter 400A panel (CA PG&E EV-B) feeding 2x new 200A panels (one for house, one dedicated for vehicle charging) and 100A fused disconnect switch and wall connector installed. This is to allow lowest charging cost for vehicle charging (timed rate) and non-timed rate (whenever/whatever) for everything else. Note that the 2nd EV meter isn't plugged in yet; waiting. Cost just under $8K. Stucco and sheet rock not included. Not painted yet. Car has the high current charger.

Yeah we are probably on the same truck. They told me week of 12/18 at first - but then they revised to 12/25.... which they don't do deliveries on... so we will see!

If your DS has never contacted you how did you find out about the delivery dates?

I also just got the "Your Tesla has been built and is in transit from the factory" status update on MyTesla

It also revised my delivery Time from Dec 18-31 to Dec 19-26

Now I gotta beg Xcel to get out here and hook up my electrical service!

Interesting as I get an update from my DS but the page never updates. These guys are all over the place as far as actual updates go.

My order date was 10-31-2016, VIN date was 11-8-2016. Delivery location is Costa Mesa, CA.

This wait is killing me! (Well I guess not literally, (I hope), but you know what I mean. <grin>).

Hmm. My confirmation/VIN date was 11/14 and have not received any emails since. Planning to take delivery in Costa Mesa as well. I did talk to my delivery contact last week and he said delivery probably in two weeks.
