Dunno about anyone else but I bailed. I made a reservation for a tri-motor version, a reservation I cancelled before the truck was available because Elon started taking Tesla off the rails.
Putting the political horseshit aside I'm very glad that I ended up not buying one. They've proven to be poorly engineered and poorly constructed.
I am quite surprised you were able to back out of it. and that they didn't try strong-arming you.
If I recall, at the time the original “reservation” for the $70k truck was literally $100. There’s no way that would’ve ever held up in a court. Much like the original $40k price tag did.
