I pre-ordered 11/26/18 and initial contact from my guide was 7/19/21.
I've poked around some to determine where the Portland area service center will be, but haven't found anything yet.
I am in the Portland area and have an projected delivery of "by mid January" from my guide which I assume lines up with the readiness of an Oregon service center.
I assume they will get equal treatment and full functional parity. In terms of market share, it looks very different when you view it globally rather than just the U.S.
I noticed there are a bunch of job openings in Seattle for security and data positions. I am assuming this means they are establishing a corporate office in Seattle which would be great to see happen.

Now the support menu item is gone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A couple of changes I noticed in the past week:
Dropped the "memberSince" attribute (contained a UTC date when pre-ordered)
New: "fulfillmentSummaryStatus": "PENDING_FULFILLMENT" - specific to my account
New: "vehicleId": "01-XXXXXXXXX" (X's are...
Some of these grays just make me think of colors used for electrical panels, but I didn't see a circuit breaker enclosure on the materials inspiration table at the normal event.
And how many months can you say "soon" about the same thing before dying a little inside.
@KWeimer711 , thank you for reaching out for questions!
Given that they allowed "the lucky 10" to drive and examine the vehicles, can they please empower our guides to provide remote video walkthroughs...
I naively thought they were going to have a tie-in to the test-drive tours with announced dates, next round cities, and maybe even time slot registration.
I fully realize that this doesn't matter, but yes you are correct that it will render nav items for multiple vehicle orders however the brief hanging progress indicator identified by the OP pertains to support. The element prior to page load completion looks like:
If you examine the fully...
I didn't dig too deep, but it appears to be some kind of a loader for the menu and not a new tab. I interrupted it while it was in a 'processing' state and it was just loading the support nav:
I think the reason it may have recently become noticeable is because of the recent changes made to...
In case anyone is curious, about a week after my guide contact there was a slight change in the configurator site data for my profile:
"configurationStatus": "SOFT_LOCKED" was previously "configurationStatus": null
Entirely possible it is a matter of semantics, but that would seem a bit of a misleading response on his part which I wouldn't anticipate given his customer-focused and candid responses so far.
Sure, a couple of things he provided in response to questions I had (may be stuff other people knew, but was new to me):
There are no delivery fees
Notification emails will be sent out as RAN locations come online.
The locations on the existing RAN map will convert to links with the location...
To be clear though, it isn't their fault. I have heard that both CS and guides have requested internally to have more access to the information they are being asked for. The problem sits above them. It seems like guides have a bit more leverage to track down information as I have learned things...
I generally hunt solo mostly focusing on chasing elk and deer with my bow in the Oregon coastal mountains (jungle), but also carry predator tags. I have also spent time hunting in Montana and hope to spend more time there as well as Idaho.
For my kids that want to hunt, I play guide for them...
