I expect conversion and delivery times to happen near one another, not months apart.

To get things off the ground they could do events with test drives, take orders at the events, then ship Blank Slates to customers who ordered them.

I expect that we will have test drive opportunities and detailed specs before they even start converting. Probably the earliest for test drives would be in a few months, could be 6 months out, as they will be produced on the line that should be complete but not running yet based on interviews.
I doubt that they would convert at events, that would kind of bypass the whole reservation system.
We should get emails at some point offering conversion, timing will probably depend on market and reservation order, and everything will be done digitally. Fulfillment partner will also be announced by that point.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see 60-90 days for early orders to sort out supply/inventory issues.

As for conversion at events, that would be problematic if in any fashion circumvented earlier reservations. No way I could see me attending an event just to convert. I’m expecting I’ll do a Ca delivery, would not be happy if a later reservation was allowed to convert solely because they attended a Ca event and I didn’t.

yah I highly doubt they would go that route to much potential heavy backlash unless it is a announcement to tell reservations holders you can convert now as a wide announcement but even then would be who’s there first to hear about it so I’m assuming it will ether be a email or social media announcement/live stream
