It's a little more than that I think - We as a society are going through a massive technological shift and it's exciting to be a part of that change. At least for me the technology and where things are headed is fascinating. Also this is a great place to commiserate with fellow waiters desperate for some sort of information..Yes, I am back to 1 week EDD window which now is 2/27-3/13!
Most likely you ordered a few hours before me and live closer to Fremont which may explain why I am about a week behind. As far as I can tell, majority of those who got the text msg are the folks who ordered mid-Jan and went from specific to generic EDD, although some who ordered mid Jan and switched to MYP shortly after 2/3 seemed to have received the same text msg as well. Who know how EDD algorithm works ...
Anyway, good wishes with the rest of your Tesla ordering journey, and to all of us. I don't want to get too philosophical here, but after being glued to Tesla app and topics for the past month or so, I am learning a lot about myself in today's society from this experience which in my view is an epitome of commercialism (Tesla) and materialism (consumers) at full display thru this online-only vehicle ordering process.
I do think Tesla is gaming us (consumers) a bit using inventory, factory scheduling (EDDs) and dynamic pricing to generate greater demand/FOMO. It worked with us after the first $500 price increase after the drop.
