Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
Your timing is pretty close to mine. I ordered June-16, 2021. I was stuck on a three week target, June 10 thru July 1. This morning I was pushed back eight days, now June 18 thru July 8. I am sure they are trying to stack rail shipments. Mine will likely be routed through Chicago.
One interesting thing i'm noticing from the spreadsheet is that very few orders with 22" wheels are getting VINned recently. Cream interiors and orders in the Pacific region are kind of in the same boat. Hopefully that is just due to batching and not supply issues, and things pick back up. Given we are hitting the 3rd month of the quarter the general expectation is that Pacific deliveries start ramping up.
Looks like over past month 20 inch to 22 inch rims are 36 to 6...
Does seem significant as I don't believe that 85% of all pending orders are 20 inch rims.
**Correction, when I look at the spreadsheet with a breakdown 20 inch to 22 inch rims, it appears a 76% of the rims on the spreadsheet are 20's. So there is that....

Tell me about it. At least you have a good EDD though. My stupid EDD is 9/11-11/06 and I ordered May 10th 21
I'm in the same boat, ordered my 7 LR X in early June '21 and got a late Sep 10-Nov 19th Etd when others are getting June-aug estimates w/ summer '21 orders. Hopefully at this point with Xs being made, that this will move up!Tell me about it. At least you have a good EDD though. My stupid EDD is 9/11-11/06 and I ordered May 10th 21
Yeah was really hoping for an EOQ push for west coast but running out of time at this point.
Don’t worry too much about your posted EDD. It can change anytime from Nov-Jan or Sept-Nov to specific dates in June to VIN within a day. It happened to my son’s MX order. And I think it happened to many others in this forum. The bottom line is you will get it when Tesla makes it. The problem is I don’t think Tesla know when they will make it and hence the jumpy EDD.
@zoomzoomx emailed Jorge and was told he had VIN assigned even though he cannot see it on the app. You can try his method and check. Here is the original post. Waiting Room: Model X 7 Seat ONLY
The latest drone video: I'll add comments below after I've had a look at it myself.
I see some accumulation of S/X on the track area again. Given this is first thing in the morning, the Logistics lot looks pretty empty. Surprised they've not been able to use the bridge for the 3/Y yet (around 4:00).

no need to touch it, you can change your financing/method of payment the day off delivery if you want
So they just texted today and said they'll need it another week which will make it 4.5 weeks at that point. They sent it back to the body shop (tesla on site body shop) because they said it didn't pass their quality checks from the work done so far and they really want me to be happy with it. Meanwhile I've piled on 2K miles on the loaner 3 with fusc.
The sad thing is I'm way more familiar with the 3 than I am the X at this point as I've driven the 3 4x the miles I've driven the X

I am picking up MX Plaid on Tuesday, June 7.
I got my VIN yesterday, and then called a local Tesla showroom for info. They said that I could change selections like financing and trade-in without any impact. I don't know whether there is a risk that your delivery date will change if you change those parameters before you get a VIN, but I don't believe there is any cost to making those changes post-VIN, so might as well wait.
I would suggest that you wait until you get your VIN.

I love the tilted display, since it feels comfortable glancing at that large screen. After driving Plaid, I think the matrix lights were overrated since the current lights shipping today are 2x brighter than my 2018. Especially lighting the way when activating the turn signals. I worry about blinding people going the opposite direction but so far no flashes.

Huh? Still an entire month to go. Plenty of time to get cars to at least the midwest. The EOQ West Coast/Cali rush typically happens in the last 2 weeks of the quarter.
Why would you have more right to be here than him? Show us that rule. He seems to understand the current state of the EV transition that you're not accepting. From the beginning, guys taking refresh deliveries stick around and give aid, comfort, and tons of good and some bad revelatory info to those still waiting. You trying to stop tradition? Car companies that put out 1/100th the amount of EV's that Tesla does, will have more time to wipe us new car buyers backsides-- a lot. They have plenty of time to do that since they're not making many EV's. He's been watching and listening to the 1000 industry troubles of ALL makes trying to follow Tesla and make EV's in volume and failing, he's just putting it all together. We want guys/gals here in this space that reflect. I'm all for that.

Thanks for mentioning the lights. I had the same impression that they were considerably brighter than my 2018 X.
