YesTesla noob here picking up black/cream/wood/21 MS Plaid tomorrow morning. Absolutely thrilled, but definitely never experienced a car buying experience like this.
Any tips/tricks/cautions to look out for when accepting delivery? Check can be used on-site to make final payment if I “accept” delivery, correct?

I've always paid with a personal check after inspecting the car. This time it was problematic but handled gracefully. I'll work on a more acceptable method for my wife's car in the spirit of cooperation but I'm not going to let the tail wag the dog.I've seen many report that they do NOT accept personal checks or cashiers checks. This was my experience as well and on my day of delivery I received a text from Tesla saying just that (no personal checks or cashiers check). I was instructed to pay via their website which uses a system called PLAID to submit payment. The process is easy and you just enter your checking routing number/account number to make the payment.
I was actually kidding. I am more than a little sarcasticI made the letter and I have a car being delivered Tuesday! Do not lose hope! I have more to say tomorrow.
We should be on the same truck. Im 8/27 to 8/29 with a white plaid and VinI knew I shouldn’t have signed that letter @sam3194 posted. Now I am getting pushed to the back of the line for acting out!!!!

You’re killing us, Smalls! . Can’t wait til tomorrow.I made the letter and I have a car being delivered Tuesday! Do not lose hope! I have more to say tomorrow.
I find that incognito mode fixes this.Anyone else unable to "manage" their S RN order right now? Just reloads my dashboard.
I can't tell if you got a response to this yet. But ...So originally my "Manage" page for my MS Plaid order showed 4 sections including my trade-in and payment method. I filled all of that out, including submitting pictures and information on my M3P that I'm trading in. Now that page has changed to just asking me for proof of insurance (but no VIN yet) and a section for documents to review that is not available yet. There is now no mention anywhere I can find about my trade-in, and they never gave me an actual estimate or offer on the trade-in. Does that seem right? Did others have their trade-in information just disappear all together?
Maybe they're looking for a "Radio Shack" for the wiring and haven't figured out that Radio Shack went out of business like almost 2 decades ago?Latest from tesla rep:
My apologies for the delay here – there has been a lot of movement going on with your vehicle in regards to what the next steps are.
So first and foremost please know that you and your vehicle are top priority to me, xxxx and the whole service and engineering team. Therefore, we’ve all been working together to make sure we come to a resolution.
They’ve definitely moved in the right direction today and have made some progress. It seems like the reason why the firmware hasn’t been fully successful it’s because we need to replace some of the wiring. All parts have been ordered BUT, I have to be honest – there is no ETC as to when those parts are going to be arriving.
However, please know that as soon as they arrive this is priority and we will get to it ASAP!
Quick question – is your 3rd party asking you to provide insurance by Monday?
Once again, thank you so much. This is by far not the most ideal situation but I truly appreciate your patience here!
(That's some crazy wire that has no ETA)
Yes, I had looked at that as well, but there is no mention of the trade in there either. It shows the information on the new car and the financing, but no mention of a trade-in anywhere.I can't tell if you got a response to this yet. But ...
On the page with insurance. Click Completed Tasks.

I guess I’ll have to call and ask, but I never said no to the trade in. I added all the information about it including pictures and it said the trade-in offer was pending approval before the screens changed around and now it is gone completely. Weird.If you have selected no to trade in previously it may have disappeared give your SA a call and ask him to add that option back
No, I haven’t received any emails yet other than the original order confirmation email.Have you received an email with the offer yet? It may still be in progress/pending
