Seems like just a coincidence unless Tesla has started giving priority without letting people officially know that this program has given them priority.FYI

You ordered 4 months ago, I don't see the connection to the long term shareholders program. Nonetheless, congrats.FYI

If you ordered a Cyberbeast, then it was definitely related to the shareholder program. They are still working on early December ordersIi received VIN 51 days after order as a long-term shareholder. So it looks like I beat the average to till VIN by 20-30 days, but have no idea if it was shareholder related.
It's a big camp.I’m still In the camp who hasn’t received an invite for a FS with the shareholder program ?
Yea I totally agree. I got the dual motor so really have no idea of if the program helped. I have a feeling because my order was already in the works when I qualified it didn't do much, but like you said, how can we know? Kind of strange to launch a program like this and not have a good followup plan ready to go. I think Tesla could benefit a lot from engaging with their buyers community more. It would have been a lot of fun if they blasted out an email saying "congrats on qualifying as a long-term shareholder! Here is what you can expect..." That would have got me pumped, even if it didn't necessarily benefit my order.@Pstryker The fact that your vehicle may have been accelerated, and you don't even know, is indicative of how jumbled this program is. Why wouldn't they send an email congratulating you (and taking credit) for accelerated shareholder delivery? Then Tesla gets free advertising when people post excerpts of their emails on X/Facebook/TikTok/wherever.
C'mon Tesla, share some details of exactly what this program is and how it works. Unless....they don't know yet.
It boggles the mind. The theory that shareholders are going to get the last of the FS is starting to make more sense. Take rate for FS is probably 1%, seeing that they are blasting 20,000 FS invites at a time. How many people are willing to spend $100k on a car they reserved for $50k?Really don't understand how difficult it is for Tesla to review the shareholder transmissions and confirm back. I am 11276 PLUS shareholder and still many others in my area with higher numbers getting delivery.
Terrible management of this program...plus they should have really thought about this prior to mid/late March.
