Don't apologize. We all feel the same. Now if he decided that that money was to go to a charity with proof I wouldn't be so annoyed. One year I bought a toy and decided no longer wanted it but it was a popular toy. So I had the buyer pay me what I paid for it and send the difference to a childhood cancer charity in their name. They got the favored toy and a tax receipt. That's fair. I felt guilty making a profit but that's just me

Absolutely no need to apologize, you were spot on.
Was thinking exactly the same thing, wouldn't it be nice if instead of trying to capitalize on a random mistake by Tesla in not cancelling the order properly, he were to say, donate to something else green, or to someone else that has been wronged by the Dinosaurs of Queen's Park, like the fight for Mincome victims.
But this attitude is exactly how people like Doug Ford win leadership races and then elections... It's all about me, to hell with anyone else or the planet.
@jules_78th ... Karma is truly a bitch and you won't really understand that until you taste it in your mouth, and you will.
If you choose to do the right thing, good will come of it.
I'm in the same situation now. Just gimme my AWD!
I would like to vote this as the best picture of the summer, anyone?
I had reached out to a contact in Fremont the other day but they were not prepared to give any feedback of a legal nature. As you might imagine, Tesla has learned over the years to play their cards very closely (except for Elon's rants which I'm sure drives them crazy). There was no indication that anything further is being discussed or pursued. Doesn't mean there isn't but if there is, they don't appear to be willing to say so.
I think at this stage, Tesla will probably be mindful of their perfect batting average and be reluctant to then delve into the muddier waters of any legal reprise for those who ordered AWD or just felt pressured to cancel.
Judge Fred Myers declared that “While everyone’s rights could possibly be vindicated by damages claims in the fullness of time, lawsuits for $14,000 are uneconomical, will take too long, and will cause harm and distress that in my view would amount to a failure of justice as compared to simply resolving the matter…”
My question is, who is "everyone" and why does he think he's resolving this entire matter in this broad, sweeping statement? The use of "rights" speaks to the discrimination he ruled in favor of. Just because you cancelled or ordered AWD doesn't mean your rights were any less discriminated against.
Pretty sure no one would touch this as a class action but kinda waffling on whether a small claims court action should be pursued or not. Perhaps it would have some potential as I think about it further.

Yes there was at least a dozen and all had written deliveries for next week. I picked up mine today at 11am...Typically would be a great day but came home and immediately had to take my dog to the emergency vet.
Oh no. Hope your fur baby is ok. Mine is suffering a bit too but I think it's the heat. Congrats on the car though. Your fur baby will enjoy the rides

He is going to be ok thanks...was able to play with the car some more and it is awesome...
Got a call from Tesla yesterday afternoon, picking up car Friday. Hopefully good news for the other people on this forum who ordered in early June, late May. Ordered June 9th. I think Tesla is doing everything they can to fill all the orders made before July 11th.
Well
My account has changed. No edit design and finance details filled and approved this morning. Fingers crossed. Plus I sent some emails yesterday to Tesla expressing concern. I may have been a little coarse. More than just a little. I may have to take it back. Frustrating roller coaster just to by a car. Encouraging to see things in account changing. Especially at all hours of the day. Even over night.
I picked up my RWD Model 3 yesterday. First family drive was this morning -- my four year old wants to go on an "adventure drive" into the Don Valley later today. So far, it's a big hit!
It’s encouraging to hear that Tesla appears to be doing everything they can to get RWD cars delivered by Sep 10. I know they aren’t the greatest at communication but it does sound like things are happening behind the scenes, perhaps frantically, to ensure that buyers that are eligible will qualify for the rebate. I am anxiously awaiting my delivery this coming Friday.
Not for those who cancelled because some Tesla reps would not permit waiting on the results of the lawsuit
I truly hope everyone gets their deliveries. The province kind of put Tesla under a barrel - I suppose I can understand their not wanting to ship more cars before they were sure that everyone who ordered was actually going to buy them, but I really hope they can pull this off for everyone who ordered a RWD. I know a lot of people who ordered around the time I did - June 17 - who look as though they are going to miss the deadline.
