Model S Reservation Tally

[strider]

I've gone back and forth on this. I would love to have people over to welcome the Model S and see the whole delivery presentation and whatnot, but I also really feel like I need to be able to concentrate on whatever the Delivery Specialists are telling me, and not acting as a "host" to people. I've gone so far as to think that I want to do it during the school day so my kids aren't even there to distract me.

OTOH, anyone who knows me knows how long I've been waiting for this car, and it would tremendous to turn it into a bit of an "event", not to mention great publicity for Tesla. Fortunately, I have some time to decide and will wait to hear how the delivery process goes for others, and that may help me decide whether I can afford the distraction of having lots of people around during the delivery process.

I'm in the same boat. My wife (and this will be her car) really wants to have a party on the delivery day. But I feel like we should get it a day or so earlier in order to set up the audio, get the seats and steering just so, get comfortable w/ the door handles, and generally figure out the car before we start taking friends on test drives. I want to be in a position to answer everyone's questions without having to look stuff up or just not know. Granted I live here on TMC so I should know most everything by the time the car arrives but we'll see.

Guess we'll just play it by ear and see if the expected delivery lines up w/ a potential party day and how other's deliveries go.

P.S. To complete the picture, there are another 7 club members with Signature reservation numbers of over S-450. So that would be enough for another carrier.

Don't forget R140, which is probably the next FL car after yours, Larry (probably < 140 after yours)

That would be one of the most memorable birthday presents ever! You should let TM know... I'll bet they'd work extra hard to make that happen.

Already let them know - they made a note in my account but it's clear they're handling them in order, as it should be.

Yeah, but if they had a day of play or two on the front side, and 3 or 4 on the back side... they'd make it happen.

But what is your reservation sequence number? That is what we tend to follow here....



WHY TWO NUMBERS?

Your Reservation Confirmation Number is the number we use to track your account. If you ever need to call us, we'll ask for this number to quickly pull up your account details.

Your Reservation Sequence Number indicates your place in our reservation queue and the order in which you'll be invited to finalize your Model S configuration, options, and packages.

High capacity chargers

Nice - looks like good progress! Now, for the exponential ramp-up!

Has anyone received their chargers yet? I am signature #208 quoted September delivery, and I have not; nor have I been given a more exact delivery date. Maybe that means Sept 30th!

Excellent. I only used one of the numbers because I didn't want to give out information someone could use to hack my reservation. Guess I picked the wrong one... Oh well. You guys are cool, right?

My sequence number is 11,456.

oops, we are going backwards.

Nevertheless, congrats!

Why would the reservation numbers be going backwards? Or are they filling holes when people cancel?

Not an outright cancellation but perhaps someone ordered but neglected to send in the deposit. The numbers seem to indicate only a day or two difference.

Ah, that's a possibility.

We are so cool, we can't feel our fingers and toes.

Congrats!

Some of us moved to a Signature S which opens up a slot for the Production reservation.
I was Production Model S Reservation # 9020 but opted to go for the Signature S # 1278 slot
when I was offered the opportunity. I am pretty sure that in doing so I have given up my
Production S #9020 slot to someone else.
