Tic Toc.......

Status went to back in the production queue. I'm guessing it's now done and ready to be shipped then.Make sure there is room on that for my Chicago bound 85D also!
Open the frunk. I found the drivers's side floor mat in the frunk of the car when I got home. When I went to install it, one of the little round plastic pieces that was supposed to be in the carpet for the mat to attach to was laying upside down unattached. Perhaps this is why they put the mat in the frunk, not sure.
Electrical_eng my MS was stuck in Chicago for at least a week. It took about two weeks to get there on rail. Rest assured that the car is better protected in a train.
It's a painful wait, but it will all be worth it. It took a full month from production end to make it to a SC and prepped. Once at the SC, the service teams would like 48 hours to check it out and do some QC before the keys hit my hand.
I've waited since October 2013 to get my first Tesla MS. I live in the Midwest so AWD was important for me. I finally confirmed a P85D on May 23, 2015. The MS status changed on Friday, May 29 to build status. The P85D finished the build status on June 4th and went back to the production queue...can anyone explain why MS's go back to the production queue after being built? It was only in this queue for a short while...I asked my DS about the status and he said it was undergoing final inspections. Are final inspections part of the queue process after a MS is built?
Later in the day the status changed to In Transit. My DS said the P85D was shipping via rail to Chicago and then by truck to Columbus, Ohio (where I live).
What is the typical transit time to Chicago on rail? I wish Tesla could give owners more of a status than having to rely on contacting our DS. My DS has been great...I don't want to keep bugging him for status updates.
The DS said he anticipates delivery to be close to June 25 (right around my birthday). This would mean close to 20 days of transit, etc. before delivery. This seems like a long time, but I am not familiar with the shipping industry.
I have been looking at the Google Spreadsheet and it shows recent transit/delivery times for the Midwest varying from about 10 days to 25+ days.
Can anyone comment on recent transit times through Chicago? Chicago seems to be a hub for MS's.
Thanks.
Delivery took place last Thursday. Here are some pictures of the car. It has a few defects, and I have an appointment to take it in for repairs on July 1. One piece of advice I would give to you when picking up is to make them demonstrate it will charge. I got home and the charge port door would not open. Still won't open unless I bang on it for a minute or two with my hand, as the service center people advised me to do when I called them.
Indeed and to st Petersburg no less! What color?Exciting news about the LTE. My 70D is on a train heading to FL, so hopefully it will have LTE enabled too.
We chose the deep metallic blue with a tan interior. Probably not quite as pretty as your red, but close :wink:Indeed and to st Petersburg no less! What color?
We also have a 70D that should be finishing up production very soon, that we will pick up in Chicago. Can't wait!!
