Where is everyone looking for existing inventory? From Tesla.com or another site?
I'm in Florida. So hopefully this is true. Ordered on 8/3 EDD 8/30-9/12.
I’ve been lurking
here too for the past few days just to gauge estimated EDD. I order a few days before you (7/18) May i ask how long have you been sitting in the Oct 16 EDD? I am still at the mid / end Sept EDD but hold my breathe every time i refresh my screen.Roughly a week now.I’ve been lurking

My order was on 7/16 and the edd has always been end of September, while people who ordered four or five days before me seem to be mainly edd’ing more toward the beginning of September and people who ordered four or five day after me seem to be edd’ing into October and beyond…
Yes you’re right…. I order 07/10 nd my EDD is Sept 01-21… I hope we all get our cars soon…

I visited them to ensure the checks were applied and to confirm everything is ready for delivery(since I didn't do the "add bank account" thing), saw my carbon the lot, then I asked if it's possible to just take the car now rather than wait until they decide to deliver, they obliged.
Long story short I just showed up
Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. Makes me wonder when we ordered we are kind of in quarter end limbo depending on if we made the sept cut or moved to oct. i hope not the latter!!
Ordered 7/14, EDD showing 09/08 - 09/28 and still no VIN.Yeah, I’ve noticed that too. Makes me wonder when we ordered we are kind of in quarter end limbo depending on if we made the sept cut or moved to oct. i hope not the latter!!

I am a few days behind you (so far) 7/18 EDD 9/14- 9/30 same order specs in NC.

Nice! We've got to be close, if that latest news doesn't derail progress too bad I would say within a week or so we should be getting VINs, right?
I've got to go 350 miles each way to get mine so it's going to require quite a bit of planning. Anyone who's had to travel that far to get theirs have any tips? I've got a friend with unlimited SC who offered to drive, but I'm pretty sure I can snag a flight on the cheap to JFK, and then Lyft to Paramus.
I have seen people sharing some helpful scripts to snag existing inventories, but if anyone is looking for a more user-friendly option, here is what I did:
1. Download chrome extension 'distill';
2. Go to the inventory page New & Used Electric Cars | Tesla and set your preference (one drawback of this method is distill is only able to search with 25-mile radius. I am not 100% sure how it works but every time distill checks the page it jumps back to 25 miles no matter how many times you choose 200 miles).
3. Click the extension on top right and select ' monitor full page'. That brings you to the settings. Rename it to whatever you like and select the interval. I made it checking pages every 15 seconds. Under action select push notification & open page. Under condition add a condition that suits your case. For me every time a page shows the text 'Standard' I get notification.
4. Save it and you are good to go. Again, like I mentioned, the tool seems to only check with the 25-mile radius. I basically made a list of zip codes of Tesla dealerships in the west coast area and had a tracker for each of them. That is time-consuming but it was worth.
You can also download the distill app on your phone to get notifications. Unfortunately only the desktop version is free. It is like $14,99/m to create tracker on a phone, but most of the people can do it on desktop and the phone notification feature is free. You can also choose to receive email notifications as well, but be aware make the conditions to be somewhat specific or otherwise you would get hundreds of emails in seconds.
This method actively searches the page for you and you wouldn't have to consistently looking at the screens. I snagged mine while I was taking a shower with notification popping on my apple watch.
Good luck.

As an update, my SA says I bought a used 2018 and payment didn't go through. What's funny is my order page shows 2021 and I found my vin, via page inspection, and it's a 2021 VIN. On top of the fact that my payment went through on my banks end, I'm not sure what to think.

Woah that's so weird. Maybe give it tonight to see if it corrects itself. Otherwise Tesla owes you a refund if its truly a 2018 model.

Picked up today in Mt. Kisco. Appointment at noon, checked in at 11:50. Signed docs, Delivery advisor paired keys, and was on my way by 12:20. I'm a former Model S owner - so I skipped most of the spiel from the advisor. Car was flawless. Took 20 miles to calibrate Autopilot.
