    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I'm curious, how much is your build subtotal, before delivery fees, order fees? Did you try asking them "well which configurations ARE you building right now that I can have to get my car at my same build subtotal?" My feeling is you have such a great price locked in that Tesla will lose a lot...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I think the issue is costs have gone up so much sinc I think the issue is that materials are less available (especially after Russia invaded Ukraine) and costs have gone up so much since September that it's not profitable for Tesla to produce orders that were received before October at...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I personally got tired of getting pushed back. I switched my order to a MYP and had it delivered 5 days later.

    Model Y Floor Mats

    Has anyone purchased Abstract Ocean's Model Y floor mats? I seems to me that you are just paying for the name for the other well know brands (i.e., 3D MAXpider, Tesmanian, Teslarati). https://abstractocean.com/collections/all-model-y/products/tesla-modely-floor-mats

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    After having my EDD repeatedly pushed back I called Tesla last Thursday, 3/24, to see if they had any Red Ys in stock. I lucked out to find they had a Performance with White Interior and no owner available. I asked the rep to change my MYLR order to this, kept September pricing and took...

    But still looks like you're going to beat EOQ!

    Edit Design without affecting price now?

    IMO just changing the paint won't make a difference. Tesla seems to be prioritizing MYPs and vehicle orders with FSD.

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    I could make the switch to MYP and just use Tesla's FSD subscription option to order FSD for $200 for a month period for whenever you need it. That what I plan to do. https://www.tesla.com/support/full-self-driving-subscriptions

    Edit Design without affecting price now?

    Sadly that's the only way any 2021 MYLR orders seem to be getting produced. By changing them to a MYP order. I did exactly that on Thursday and my car is being delivered tomorrow, just 5 days later.

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Yes, Tesla is trying to maximize profit by delivering their higher margin orders at higher rates at the expense of their lower margin orders or orders they might be making little money or even losing money on. Remember last October Tesla raised prices substantially on all their vehicles and...

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    When was your OD? If you change your current MYLR order to a MYP I wouldn't be surprised if you received a VIN that same day AT the October MYP price if that's when you originally ordered. Tesla's algorithm takes your wait time into account when assigning GINs. If you're going to keep...

    Edit Design without affecting price now?

    It shouldn't. The algorithm should still keep your original OD into account. Although just moving to the 20" wheels won't make your EDD move up. That only seems to be happening for people that add FSD or change their order from a LR to a P. When was your OD and what's your current EDD?

    Edit Design without affecting price now?

    I keep seeing more and more delays. My EDD kept getting pushed back so I just decided to end the torture and switch my order to the P. Changed yesterday and will be delivered on Tuesday. I just checked the Tesla site and they are estimating DD of Jan-April 2023 on all new orders. It was...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Tesla is now displaying an EDD of January to April 2023 on the basic MYLR build. It was December as of yesterday I believe.

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Given the recent sharp increases in raw materials, with no indication they will come down anytime soon and the potential for it to keep getting worse on account of the Russian invasion at what point does it become unprofitable for Tesla to produce orders placed at last years prices? I see a...
