pic taken this AM in the Chicago suburbs. they're coming! hang in there people!
Decided on an S75D
Ordered: 10/12
Confirmed: 10/15
VIN: Early November
Entered Production: 12/4
Original Delivery Date: 12/18
Updated Delivery Date: 12/26
Picking up at the SLC Service Center.
I've been looking forward to this car, and was super dissapointed when I got the call the day before my original delivery saying that there were logistics problems with truck transports, and they would need to reschedule. My DS has been great via phone, but emailing never seemed to get any consistent response. Car is still showing as 'In Production' on the website, and I'm nervous it won't show up in time for the 26th either.

Ordered 10/30
Confirmed 11/1
Scheduled for delivery Sat. 12/23 (makes a nice Christmas present).
The folks at the Walt Whitman Mall showroom have been great and spot-on as far as timings are concerned.
The DS also has been very informative. So far, a great experience.

A Tesla for Xmas sounds wonderful. I'd continue to follow up with your DS during the expected date the vehicle will be dropped off at the delivery center. You may be able to pick it up a day earlier or be forced to pick up later if something comes up.
Well, I went to pick it up at around 5:15pm. Springfield Tesla was busy as heck, apparently doing 17 deliveries per day. Since I agreed to pick it up earlier, car was not detailed as much as it normally would be. Other than some very light scratches (rushed cleaning job), the car was awesome! I did not go through a checklist of any kind, just whatever my DS (John was great) was showing/teaching me, took just a couple of pics and left an hour later. My drive home was only 5 minutes, glorious 5 minutes.
Few observations:
- I was surprised that Summon feature was available to me with EAP, I thought I needed FSD upgrade for that.
- Firmware was v8.1 (2017.46.8) and I had a msg to upgrade it. I'll check later today if update went through.
- Glad I went with cream interior.
- Gen 2 UMC only uses 32Amps giving me 23 miles/hr instead of 29 I was expecting.
- Car looks huge in my garage (compared to my Acura TL), be careful with garage doors if you plan on opening the trunk!
- So many options and settings to play with!
- Web browser sucks
- It's a spaceship
It's staying in the garage for now, at least till I get paint protection on. Have an appointment with Signature Detailing for tomorrow morning and getting it back on Saturday.
