Really hoping to see my Premium in early December! With a 100042** reservation I'm certainly in the early batches. I wonder if I'll have the first Space White out there...

So I am 10004247. Am I ahead of you, or behind you? ?
Probably close enough that it will be the delivery process that determines who gets theirs first, not the production order.

Ohio vs Maryland. Hard to say. Have to check those train routes. ?

Don’t know. I was guessing total too, but don’t know for sure.
That fits with the following, too:
The goal is to (try) to have all the first edition built by last week of October.
With at least 2000 FCTP, plus executive cars and other company orders, I can't see how they could fit another 5,000 in the first month, especially considering they may not be at full speed. In fact, I can't really see how they can fit in 3,000 FEs by then.

Is this like queuing up to board a Southwest flight?
Yup. I hit that button pretty quick to get an A group pass. I almost forget what that’s like now . . .
Of course at the time we had no idea for sure that reserving quickly would be a benefit and that COVID was going to get here before the Mach E.

Bribery works where chicanery fails. ;)

Was really hoping for a 2020 tax credit.
Hopefully you'll get a better picture in September/October time.

I too am worried about the tax credit year since I've been moving money this year to take advantage of it.

No use worrying about things I can’t control. I’ll get the car when it gets here I guess.

My email time stamp is 11/17 9:55 pm ET.
Actually my reservation email was dated 18 Nov at 11:37pm. The text of the email says: “Date Reservation Placed: 19 Nov.” Maybe it’s a time zone thing. Who knows.

This seems to be the case with all the reservations. I got confirmation on 11/17 just before 10pm EST and it shows 11/18 as the order date.
