Right? As much as I want one, there are a lot of kinds and things to improve on.. but in person it is so badass!

Yea part of Joe's job description, he gets to work out some of the early issues

I just don't get the people being angry. Trying a different approach to marketing/advertising a product and people get bent. My wife worked for Jeep in advertising. She just chimed in. Called guerilla marketing. Or non traditional. It may be hard to quantify in terms. That is why it is hard for mainstream media to help in that matter. Tesla does it different.

Traditions are sometimes problematic in the eye of the consumer. It has always been this way so it should continue to be that way. If it isn't the same, my cheese got moved and I don't know what to do.

Why all the surprise. Tesla does it different. Many said the above items wouldn't work. They do.

Carry on.

I have mixed feelings about this... I APPRECIATE all that he does for this group but to put someone ahead just because they are influential just rubs me the wrong way. If anyone were to get one because of this reason Joe DOES deserve it, but it goes to show Tesla doesn't care about the average consumer... Just my opinion. Mine is my first Tesla ever, but the way the are handling the deliveries makes me not want to do business with them

Joe had done incredible work. There is a method to the distribution madness. Don't bet against Elon.

Why do we think he's a line jumper? Did he order late?

I am curious, was this a recent update (depending on trim) or does everyone have a light bar in their app?

I HAVE NO LIGHT BAR IN MY APP IMAGE!!! Arrrgh!!!! How did you get one? Can I take my app to the Service Center and have one installed? Does the AWD get a light bar as part of the accessories package? I thought it did.

I’m just wondering why it took so long for Joe to get his truck IF he didn’t get to jump ahead.

 

[charliemagpie]

Very happy for him. Love his work.

If 1000 influencers jumped the queue out of the first 100,000 CT's =1%.
Insignificant overall impact to wait times, and a smart marketing exercise for Tesla.

This is a big one for me.

True, but I think most of the frustration is from the folks with existing FS orders. The percentage of queue jumpers is much higher when you're only counting foundation series units.

That said, Joe absolutely gets a pass for me.

Yeah he definitely ordered late and used referral credits for accelerated delivery.

If ya guys don’t like it you can always get a Rivian

 

[SlegMD]

Actually, my guess is this Joe fellow is probably more passionate about the CT and has contributed more to “CT fandom” than this OP, so I’d say fuck it and he deserves one wherever he is in line.

it’s amazing that the CT has brought adult inner child out .
