Wiki Model S Delivery Update

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I still don't have my registration papers so that I can pick up my plates. They just expedited my delivery to coincide with the other Texas deliveries, I guess. I have no complaints, though! I just heard back from the Tesla admin and she asked if I had torn off the temporary CA permit from the last documents. I didn't see that in the instructions, but there's a lot to be confused about.

I had promised to post pictures but I'm tired (too excited to sleep last night!) and I'll wait for my son to do it this weekend. I "visited" my car in the garage tonight and found myself mindlessly humming "Isn't She Lovely?" How funny is that?!?!!?

The drivers are usually on a tight schedule (especially through year-end), but I would have enjoyed spending more time with my driver, Constantine. Anyone who has a car delivered by Constantine is VERY LUCKY! He was very nice and interesting, too. His daughter dates a pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates, so I can keep up with him in a way :)
 
Question - Why move the posts on delivery notification to another thread but timdoor's spreadsheet includes delivery notification data (top of this thread)? Is that consistent?

I will have not delivery specialist. I will only have a truck driver. Truck drivers generally don't drink wine. Some may. I hesitate to give a driver any alcohol at all (some of y'alls cars might still be on that trailer). Maybe a fruit cake since it is Christmas. I dunno. We will see ....
 
Took delivery of Sig 1179/VIN1045 today. I called yesterday and got rescheduled for today. Ben came through the Snoqualmie pass, and I met him in Ellensburg. We went over things rapidly (about 1.25 hours) because of severe weather moving into the pass, and I wanted to get Ben home safely and timely. Still got through everything (I would suggest reading the manual pre-delivery). Tipped with a bottle of Leonetti Cab and took off.

The car is as amazing as the test drive car except this one is mine. Very happy with the drive and the range. I started with only a projected range of 203. I made it 169 miles home and still had 113 miles on it. I was a little stingy with the climate control and light on the cruise control. Got home and barely missed the sunset. Here are some pics. The car is awesome and delivered.

Congratulations!

Nice tip.
 
P#130 Performance/Brown/Tan/Carbon Fiber/85W/21" Silver Wheels to be delivered to Arizona with delivery window 12/9-12/23. Finally! Just got the email. Looks like Telsa has financing available through both Wells Fargo and B of A. Also asked if I wanted the factory to install a front license plate holder (no for Arizona). Can't Wait!
Replying to my own post because I forget to put the VIN for whomever is in charge of the spreadsheet. VIN=1758
 
Does anyone know who has VIN 1084? What would be the "sticker" included in my car (VIN 992) was for 1084, not mine. 1084 is Signature Performance, Pano, pearl white, 21 inch wheels, black interior, carbon fiber

He does. I just sent him an email.

Indeed... So my window sticker is in your car? Odd. I wonder if I have yours then? I was thinking maybe same truck, but I didn't think my driver stopped in TX
