Well, today was the day I have been worrying about. Will I find misaligned panels, off color bumpers, or something else wrong?
I brought 2 friends with me to help inspect the car, and we all found NOTHING WRONG, except a misaligned glove box door.
It was nearly perfect - so glad. It was sitting at the Supercharger when we went to find it in the parking lot. It was charged
up to 293 miles, so that was nice. The only thing I can find to complain about is the wait until we were attended to.
Being Saturday, maybe they were short-staffed? They must know exactly how many deliveries they had today, but it took
about a half hour to have someone help us. I won't bother to bore you with details, but it was like everything was in slow motion.
The worst part was when I gave them my cashier's check - the damn girl at the bank made the check payable to TELSA and they
would not accept it for payment. Luckily for me there was a BofA about a mile or so away, but it was already 12:50pm and they
close at 1pm on Saturday. I got to the bank after being stopped at each traffic light on the way, arriving at 12;58pm, just before
they locked the doors. Got a replacement check and went back to pick up my car, which only took an additional few minutes.
My first time really driving a Tesla, unless you count the 2 mile "test drive" they gave me at a dealership on a used model Y.
Very pleased with the ride. Didn't hear any squeaks or rattles but must admit the a/c was blowing pretty strong and I had the
radio on when I finally figured out how to unmute it. I know there will be a learning curve to figure it all out, and that's okay.
My glove box is misaligned, and I can't figure out how to contact mobile service. My phone does not yet sync with the app.
From what I understand, that is how I must request service. We'll see what happens tomorrow - maybe it will sync by then.
I ordered the base LR model with black interior. I plan to have the windows tinted soon. Just ordered mud flaps from Shop Tesla,
and a floor mat set from Tesmanian.
Many thanks to the members here for helping me through the process.
From order day to delivery was only 12 days. I'm still in shock.
