Waiting for the car was surprisingly easy. We knew it was coming, and we were still trying to sell the Tesla. So we went on with life, excited, but tempered with a busy time.

We were in New Orleans for a short getaway on a Monday when I got a message that the car would be ready Thursday. I told them we’d come Thursday at 3p, knowing this would give us about an hour before we had to get to the gym to coach. You can read in the sales process that this wasn’t that smooth, but it worked.
