Well my new date has moved all the way until January 17th - Feb 14th! I originally ordered the pre-refresh Model S on Jan 1, 2021. I confirmed the new configuration shortly after refresh update. LR white/ black interior / 19" wheels. No FSD.
I have seen estimated dates from Feb '21 all the way until Feb '22. It really feels like they don't want to deliver my car. I'm sure it's because it's 12K less than the current orders and they do not value their commitments made to consumers.
You'd think I'd learn from other experiences - my first tesla was delivered march of 2013 - pretty much on time with their first estimate. My second tesla was a model 3 in march of 2020. That one I took from inventory after they couldn't deliver my order on time so I switched configs a little bit. And the whole time I would read this board and see how everyone else has been treated over the years.
I can't wait until they open up the supercharger network to other manufacturers. Next time it will be much easier to select another vendor for my car.
What a tribute to their engineering and their supercharger strategy that we all put up with this. I do hate myself for not being able to resist though.
