If you reserved a Model X more than exactly 2 years ago tonight, you have a higher # than me. Less than two years ... well, you get the idea. I have gone from relieved - more time to get prepared ($)- to indifferent (it'll happen whenever)- to despondent-(could they just blythly push it back any farther?!?) uugh - back to excited and around & around. Have I mentioned lately that I'd really like to have my Tesla? Just wanted to mark the anniversary. ️ML
 
I've only seen the patient side. :)

'Patient' as in 'waiting gracefully', not as in 'ready to be committed'.

yeah, patient or "a patient"
there is a maximum wait time, I know. Started sometime in Febuary the year before, I understand, right about the time I found out Tesla Motors was a thing. Took me a while to catch up. I did buy some TSLA in the interim. :biggrin:
 
Mike, I absolutely understand! I am using the TMC counter to remind myself I will be on-line configuring soon! Doesn't help that family and friends ask if I am ever getting the car, or has it been delayed again whenever they see me.:crying:

I bet you optimistically refreshed your dashboard a few times within the first week of placing your order...2 years ago :)

I reserved on February 13th which was the first day... In the first 30min... I'm XP268 ... But don't worry I may postpone until around Thanksgiving.
 
I had a relatively low-reservation number for a Model-S and within minutes of the Model-X reservations going live, I got a 2nd reservation (#008 in Canada). When my Model-S reservation came up, I decided to get a refund, since the Model-X was only 6 months away and I preferred the extra space and AWD. Less than a week after getting my refund cheque from Tesla, they announced the first delay of the Model-X. The Model-X is going to be close to 2 years delayed (the first deliveries were originally set for late 2013).

I only hope that my current vehicle lasts that long...
 
It's been 3 years, 3 months, and about 6 days... Pretty sure you'd indeed need to be committed if you didn't feel impatient at any point!

I am 3 years and 2 months.

This wording came with my email confirmation. Makes me feel like an inpatient.

MODEL X: WHAT COMES NEXT?
We expect to begin production of Model X in late 2013, ramping up deliveries in early 2014. Model X will be priced comparable to a similarly equipped Model S. More details will be announced as production nears.
Thank You!

Waiting for Tesla to do anything is like riding a roller coaster, that is why I decided to buy a CPO car last week.

When I first talked to my Delivery Specialist he said the end of next week (now this week). What do you think the chances are that they will be late?
