Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

[Stro]

Just read on FB of someone here taking an LR delivery identical to mine after “7 long months” of waiting. We live in the same city. This makes me so sad.

We are reaching 1,000 pages of intelligence. Anyone crack the code on Tesla delivery algorithm ?

EDD updated again to March then back to Feb 19-Mar 10. I guess I will be entering the year-old club!!

Someone told me recently that purchasers who have previous owner teslas can get prioritized — could that be it?

I have/had 4. Plaid order placed in January ‘21. Plenty of people have taken delivery before me

Yeah, don’t be a pre-refresh order. Pretty sure the delivery team is just sorting all the orders by gross margin at this point.

I don’t Understand people running their credit without a VIN. Especially those in this forum. You read things here and you should know don’t run it till you are forced to with a VIN in hand.

Or even an actual delivery date (not date range) given all of the chaos

I totally agree. However, I am not using Tesla‘s financing and it can take a while to pull together a loan with USAA and/or Bank of America. I wanted to get a little jump on it, knowing that I’d have 30 to 45 days to hold the offer.

Nope as I’m not a first time owner. This will be my third.

And don’t make the same mistake as me. Paying in full one day before delivery, with them confirming “it’s almost delivery day! Your car is arriving tomorrow between 8:00am-12:00pm. We will text you when your car is on its way!” only to be told two hours later they prematurely scheduled, your delivery is cancelled and your car is still in production and inspection.

And turn the knife while they deliver someone else’s car who was VIN’d a week after you who placed an order in December. Not your fault @shamberann and you seem like an awesome person sharing your experience with us. It just doesn’t make any sense.

There are others who have been waiting a year and don’t even have a VIN. None of this makes any sense logistically. I just don’t know when the bad expectations/false alarms stop for everyone waiting for their car. When will it stop?

See above. Some banks, which are more competitive than Tesla‘s financing, take a while to push through. When I bought my model S plaid, I used Bank of America. Their rates blew everyone out of the water, but it took painfully long time to get it in place.

My logic was to get a head start on financing if I knew I was within 30 to 45 days. It’s the first time in a year that I’ve had an actual date range, and (shame on me), I kind of assumed I was getting close enough to justify pulling my credit. Lesson learned.

This would be my fifth. No love here.

Closing in on a year and a half since they paused the S/X for the refresh, still not a single 5/7 seater delivered, not a single word from Tesla about it, nothing, nada. Sadface

Almost page 1,000...

"Intelligence"?

 

[Shopi01]

Welcome sad no-vinners to the long dreaded page #1000

 

[Stro]

I am really starting to believe the theory of Tesla wanting us early reservation holders to cancel and re-order to maximize profits if we truly want to receive a vehicle. Nothing else makes sense.

 

[JER85]

About to be 1,000 pages and 20k posts. We are massoquists…. There’s no other explanation.

 

[i7iceguy]

got a vin in my plaid white/white just now.

 

[SeaDoc]

Just got a new expected delivery date of next week, previously March 2022 for a white/white/plaid x - no vin yet... but something's cooking - I can feel it...
