Received mine as well 11286. Going Beast. Think Foundation is worth it? Is there $20K in extras? If wrap in black, does Foundation etching het lost?

I don't understand why Tesla hasn't updated their estimated delivery window for the dual motor. 65 day lead time means April at earliest. So April to ...?

Interesting your RN number is way higher than mine

Well, there's 2 options here. Either:

1) they know they are full of crap, and don't want to signal that they are having production issues

2) they aren't bothering to update it based on real information from the production line. It's just a rolling "90-ish day" window


I suspect it's #2. There are zero factors going into calculating this, someone just made a 3 month guess, and that's what they are showing. When I got my invite on 1/9, I didn't know that zero of the people invited that day or after would receive their trucks in january (and honestly maybe zero in february as well). So it's disingenuous for them to claim that people ordering on that day would get "jan-mar" delivery.


To me, it does feel like things are picking up speed on the production end, but I don't know that I could reasonably explain why I think that now that the vin tracker is shut down. Maybe this is all part of their plan, things are ramping, and in march we'll see a ton of deliveries. I was quite hoping to be exempt from the end of quarter delivery push (which is when QC slips the furthest) but now it seems all too likely.

Congratulations. If you wrap in any color the foundation etching is covered. Some companies are making foundation logos that you can place on top of the wrap though.

Just imagine a complete stranger.

Tell them when you get it that you thought about buying one 4 years ago. You put a deposit in, and it took 4 years+.

Many can't look beyond 6 months in life. Truly an amazing thing. The average person wouldn't sit and wait for 4 years for a car/truck or anything maybe in life. Yet here we all are.

The Feb-Apr 2024 est. delivery is the only thing giving me (false?) hope that there may be some non-FS orders this year.
