⚠️ Front row reminder, this is a crazy article
Let's start with a month ago#
On May 16th, for some reason I can't remember, I suddenly wanted to test drive a Tesla, so I quickly asked a friend with a driver's license if they wanted to go together. I can only say that watching Tesla videos for a few years had some effect. A strange force pushed me to download the Tesla App, and then another magical force made me open my eyes wide and stare at the Face ID, only feeling a slight vibration, and then -1000
After a while, starting from this message, I went crazy 😵💫
Collecting information everywhere#
To alleviate the long waiting period, of course, I had to find Tesla enthusiast groups on various Tesla-related apps and social media; and when I did, I was shocked. Every day, I come across all kinds of true and false information, and whenever I feel it's beneficial to me, I immediately ask in the group:
Salvage cars#
There is such a thing, either it's taken by someone else first, or it becomes an official used car; it's not easy to deal with.
Differences in delivery speed between different cities#
At that time, it happened to be during the subsidy period in Chengdu. I found out the day after I placed the order, but the salesperson directly told me that I couldn't get the subsidy if I placed the order now. But in fact, I felt like I could take a gamble, but considering that I had to go to Chengdu to pick up the car and then transport it back by truck, it was too much trouble, so I decided to just wait.
The result was that the delivery in Chengdu was so fast!!! Tesla really does prioritize resources for subsidized cities, I can only say that this is a good move, prioritizing owners who want subsidies. But here in Hunan... it's too slow (are there fewer wealthy people in Hunan? 😶)
Bombarding 400 customer service#
In the end, a colleague from the 400 customer service contacted me for delivery, but calling to urge them didn't work
Overall, only the information about delivery and sales is somewhat reliable, the other information from fellow enthusiasts can only provide psychological comfort (or maybe they really are just about to pick up their cars 🥶)
Going crazy everyday#
Finally reached the end#
Although, I experienced a huge gap in expected values based on big data:
This is the estimated time from a third-party app, not provided by the official, but it can indirectly reflect the average delivery time nationwide. (Some regions are lowering the average!!!)
I also experienced a huge gap in big data:
Who is actually delivering my car?? Who??
But in the end, they still gave me the opportunity to give a passionate tribute to Comrade Musk with gold coins!! 💰
(These coins earn 26 yuan in interest in Yu'EBao every day! 😍)
Thanks to the congratulations sent by the enthusiast group 🎉
I've been watching them discuss cars for a long time
Finally met my big mouse#
Took a photo with the old employees!
Going crazy choosing a number#
I had 50 chances to choose, am I too picky??
Went crazy, none of the numbers I chose were selected (with so many cars, what was I thinking)
The randomly selected numbers later were not bad, without the number 4, ABAB ending, let it be 🥱
The first lesson of searching and scraping#
Who knows, I got up early in the morning to scrape the morning electricity (there are too many taxi drivers, you can't get one at 23:00)
In order to get the weekly charging coupon of 20-10
#GoingCrazy#
Don't go too far...
Shenzhen was offering subsidies before I ordered the car, but the salesperson told me it might not be available because I ordered too late. They came the day after delivery 😠
Inner OS: It's okay, I still have to transport the car back to Changsha from Shenzhen and then get it registered, it's too much trouble. It's better to buy early and enjoy it early.
Who's the good person with 12,000 yuan? Let's buy early and enjoy it 🤬
That's it, I'm on my honeymoon with my little Tesla.
One more thing#
Yes, if you have any ideas, I'm envious of your referral points! We can make a deal 🤤
If you need a test drive, please let me recommend my salesperson to you! (They're a good person)
