Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

Folks on here have astutely pointed out previously that the second month of every quarter seems to focus on the middle of the US. To me, the recent EDD shifts seem to reinforce this point, though maybe they’re a bit later than usual due to the production pause. FWIW, this is exactly what happened to me with my MYP (production halt aside).

So buckle up midwesterners… the next few weeks ought to be fun!
 
I think the posts above are blending two different problems as shown in the photo below.

Problem area #1 mentioned by @Hephaestus has been around for many years and has frustrated many Tesla owners with disappearing credit cards, etc. The only solution seems to be both aware of the problem and be cautious where you lay things.

Problem area #2 as mentioned by @mobilesuit818 is the area between the seat and the center armrest/console and has been a problem in almost all vehicles since horse and buggy days. A random Amazon solution link is below the photo (I haven't bought or reviewed this, I just linked the first one I found).

Thanks. I see from other photos that the console cover when closed slopes downward, so anything slick laid down on it will slide right under the phone charger.

I took delivery of an MS Plaid last June, so I think you're right!
 
It would appear that orders before the launch date of 1/27/21 are Tesla's lowest priority. Because these orders receive an additional $2,000 discount, Tesla only rarely delivers one of these. Shocking that Tesla would punish its most enthusiastic customers who ordered the earliest over a measly $2,000. Unfortunately, it seems to be what Tesla is doing. Destroying customer brand loyalty for two grand is a huge financial mistake for Tesla IMHO. I know I will remember this, and I think others will too.
It looks like you've posted this misleading information multiple times now, but if you look at the data it simply isn't true. 2020 and Jan orders have been delivered at almost the highest rate. If you ignore Plaid orders it is even more the case.

just wanna say the automatic doors on the X open entirely too slow 😒 then if you try to pull it open its super hard to open like the door be resisting for like 1.5 seconds then it lets loose and you can finish pulling it open. Super super annoying. I hate looking like the fool standing their for a few seconds waiting for his door to open lol. Nice feature but should be a tad bit faster. Or looking like the fool trying to pry his door open 😂

Awesome to see the 7 seater flood begin! They must have swapped the batches in the factory again.
Still only 3 vins as per the spreadsheet and 1 delivery. It really would be nice if they could give this config just a bit more attention before switching back again to flooding 6 seaters seeing as almost 50% of 6 seaters have already been delivered as per speed sheet. 5 seaters well on their way too. Reasonable ask.

Hi all;

Lurker from the MS delivery thread. Getting a little boring over there since most of the early orders all have cars.

After 18 months, and an unexpected 8 month slip to EDD, It occurred to me I should hedge my bets.

Cancelled CT Tri-motor, Ordered an MX LR 5 seat today. White/White/Walnut/20"/HellnoFSD.

Looking forward for some more therapy, Hopefully, less than 18 more months though.
