Just wanted to share my experience again, love this forum and the updates (kept me sane through the waiting process).
Today I received my VIN for a 2022 MYP after my original order on 9/8/2021. Was an odd experience, so as many others here have advised, here's how it went.
Order: 9/8/2021 (was a MYLR White/White 7 seats no tow no FSD)
Financing was instant approval (they seem to use FICO 8 from Equifax for me through Tesla Financial which is actually using Wells Fargo). Score on the Wells Fargo paper that was sent was an 812 (wanted to give the reference point, as I was always wondering if I would qualify or not... had a repo in my early 20's that still has me shell shocked I guess).
EDD arrived within 24 hours and went as follows...
11/16 - 12/14
11/26 - 12/24 (about 3 weeks after order)
1/16 - 2/13 (about 1 week after last change)
JUNE (changed first week of Nov)
After seeing JUNE, I knew my life wouldn't let me wait for a car that long (I should say wife, as we have been a single car household for a few months)...
I called Tesla customer support and after a conversation, decided to move my order to a MYP (price again wasn't the biggest issue)... Tesla advisor stated that the MYP was a higher priced trim, which is ofter prioritized over lower cost trims. He simply made the switch while I was at my computer, I reconfigured my Tesla, I optioned it for CASH instead of LOAN and confirmed that I could change it back to LOAN when I got my VIN.
Change to MYP happend on 11/5 (Friday)
EDD was given to me by Friday evening of 11/16 - 12/2
Sunday, EDD changed to 11/23 - 12/2
On 11/8 (Today) I got my VIN, with a delivery window of 11/23 - 11/27.
I contacted Tesla back, and they quickly sorted my profile to financing, went into account, chose payment, was approved instantly.
Contacted insurance, uploaded policy.
Now im just waiting for a few weeks, they advised my car was a 2022, 7SAYG VIN.
Something of note, when you log into TESLA website and click on your account, previous to today my model Y simply said "Tesla Model Y" on my dashboard. Today it switched to say "2022 Tesla Model Y". Vin can also be seen in App when you get it.
Insurance cost is through State Farm for a mid 30's male driver with no accidents/tickets and drive/save @ $780 for 6 months.
Will update one last time with picture and name!
Again, this board and forum is amazing!! Thank you everyone for the feedback and stories about Tesla experiences!!
Edit: no, I dont care at all about the tax credit... my wife may put me in the bin if I dont get a car before the holidays start... In the words of that sloth from Ice Age... "I Choose Life"....
