How do we know if any production has started yet? Is it published or simply rely on the drone flyovers for videos? Is it possible production has started?

So I ordered my ms on 4/3, got an email from my advisor today pushing for me to get my financing completed (suggested I do it on 4/12 to hit “end of June” delivery... I have 10to14 weeks listed..) and is also saying “we will prioritize assigning configurations to customers who are showing they are prepared to take delivery of a vehicle soon” so is this an approach that trumps order dates (seems dubious).. while I don’t want to have to run finance twice I will if it moves me up... thoughts

Was seriously thinking about buying cheap used car to bridge to MS after seeing June estimates. But today’s glimpse of an April delivery forecast had given me second thoughts. But with only one data point, I think I’m back to bridge car!

MSLR 1/27/21 VIN MF443 Delivered 9/19/21!
Seems odd. My LR was ordered 1/27 and originally stated March 1 -31 delivery. Now just March. Even tho it’s April now
It doesn’t make sense to get financing now. I’m pretty sure financing can be completed in a day or two. You can also say you’ll be paying cash and then switch at the last minute. Just tell your advisor that your bank needs a VIN.
Until I hear production has started, I’m just assuming it hasn’t started. I hope I’m wrong. Many people here including myself have eyes and ears wide open.

Ugh. Mine too. I think I have something to do with that. Not sure if the update is good (at least some sort of communication) or bad (very delayed delivery). I was able to reach out to a Tesla exec to alert him of the situation and told him of my frustrations being new to Tesla. Told him my account still said March for estimated delivery. He actually responded (which I’m very grateful for that at least someone is paying attention and understands the need to communicate to those who have orders in for some very expensive Tesla vehicles). So sorry guys but at least we have an update, albeit it’s a very disappointing one...perhaps they’re somehow now trying to “under-promise” so they can “over-deliver” ...maybe get us our refreshed MS vehicles in May or June?

OMG. I hope they’re not moving all of us on this forum to July as punishment.

Meanwhile, I’ve still got 10-14 weeks from order date, which brackets June.
I wonder if the delivery estimate is derived from actual deliveries.
Or rather: I wonder if a delivery has been made, and these estimates will change as the pace picks up.

Yup still no update here as well. Org a 4-11 wait on the east cost in florida for LR Blue/Black 19"
I'm just really glad I bought a chevy volt today. I may or may not keep the S order, but I'll at least keep it around until I get a VIN and then decide, no reason to cancel today. Very disappointed but SO GLAD THEY ARE NOT STRINGING US ALONG FOR 3 MORE MONTHS!
Thank you, Tesla for finally owning up. Good lord!

Personally I think the MS LR will start deliveries much sooner than the Plaid. I have a feeling the tri-motor Plaid has issues either with the machines used to make them and/or other issues. Don’t know. Hopefully I get a call or another email with more information from Tesla.
I have a LR, so...Yeah, IDK. @EyeDocRob where you at, baby? It still say April for ya? 
Maybe they doing 1 car a week...

Thinking about the under-promise to over-deliver, Q2 ends June 30th, unless there truly was a horrible reason for this delay, they could very well aim for a Q2 end push. Especially because Elon said orders were higher than they anticipated.Ugh. Mine too. I think I have something to do with that.

Why u think LR will be before Plaid? There is higher margin on Plaids. There is nothing to suggest that issues with Tri motor. No one knows the cause of delay. If it was only tri motor issue they would have already started dual motor LR deliveries in March
