It is likely since you’re in Cali they have you as a placeholder for a last minute EOQ delivery should one come available either off the line or a cancellation.. We’ve seen this happen occasionally.
I’d expect to be pushed though.

It seems to be a crapshoot. My SA said that I will get the Continental all seasons for my 19” VIN473.
For grins I looked up tires on Tirerack and the Summer tires are listed as Original Equipment.
I’m in MA I hope I get all season, even though I plan to get snow tires for winter.
If East Coast does not get assigned any VINs today I'd say were done for the quarter
Sign of spending way too much time on this thread since about Oct. last year. Despite what Elon said, Tesla still does an end of quarter push of sorts. In December, the first EOQ after the announcement, there was an EOQ push to those close to the factory (FACT). In fact some East Coast VINs assigned early to mid December were withdrawn by the end of the month. It has typically taken 3 weeks to deliver a car to the East Coast until within the past month when it took 2 weeks. Therefore my reasoned argument is that time to ship a car to the East Coast in time for the EOQ is running out very fast.
After saying all that watch me be the one getting a VIN this week. That would look bad.
In Chicago : OD : 8/15- RN 1154xxx... Mine is still holding 3/16-3/30 since 2/25.. Let's see if it holds
You might be giving too much credit to Tesla's logistics and delivery process... Yes, obviously no one the mid-west wants summer tires, as it's below 40 degrees for months at a time here. So it's only reasonable to think that any car shipping to KC with 19 inch rims would get all-seasons. WRONG!
On the bright side, Tesla did agree that this is messed up and will be replacing my summer tires with all-season tires as soon as they are available. Doesn't do me much good this week though (highs in the 20s and snow forecast).
So you MIGHT get all-seasons, but you very possibly might not. I'd lay the groundwork now with your SA that if the car comes with summer tires, they will agree to swap them out. That's what I did and it did seem to help.
Thanks for the info! I hope we start to see a heavy dose of VINs being assigned, its been a little bit slow with the new lights and all. I am still hoping I get one this week.
Holding 3/15-3/26. Tesla got me believing this is my time.In Chicago : OD : 8/15- RN 1154xxx... Mine is still holding 3/16-3/30 since 2/25.. Let's see if it holds
Snowing here in Chicago too, I would be EXTREMELY careful taking that car out with summer treads. Summer tires are not built for snow.
This has been my experience also, and was the deciding factor in me accepting my "old" MSLR last week vs waiting and hoping to get a refreshed car soon.
I ordered in June, and had an EDD of Dec 21-31 for quite a while, which got me really hopeful I'd get an EOQ/EOY push car. Um, NOPE...
I know there are many other people in the same boat right now (like @2MuchLala and others) who ordered in June and have EDDs of late March. If they don't get a VIN in the next week or so, I'd say the odds of getting a car in late March will dwindle significantly. And then there seems to be a 2-week lull at the beginning of a new quarter with very few VINs assigned (at least that's what happened in January).
I don't want to "pee in everyone's Cherios," but I've just been lingering here so long and have seen this scenario play out over and over... I'll continue to check in here once in a while to see how the deliveries are going, but will mostly just be enjoying my new ("old") MSLR instead of refreshing my Tesla App 100 times a day.
I'd say you're looking good being only a week away from the factory. Chicago is a major rail transport hub for Tesla. East Coast cars sometimes spend a whole week in Chicago before being transferred onto the next train to NJ.
In July I was sent away with a paid rental car for work. I also knew I wanted to go M3P to MSLR soon. In early July I sold my M3P into the inflated used car market for a good portion of what I bought it for in late 2019.
My work travel was scheduled until January 2022. In July the EDD for new vehicles was November - this wouldn't work because I would still be traveling (I also would have had nowhere to put the car). I was checking every day, and suddenly the EDD for new vehicles jumped to Feb-Mar 2022.
Now it's March, my EDD window pushed all the way to May at the earliest, and I currently have no vehicle, no insurance, now borrowing a company car. Cannot legally drive my girlfriend's car due to my insurance mistake (canceling insurance instead of getting insured non-owner). Just giving me a lot of stress
I am still holding at March 17-31. 1151 KC order. Feeling luke warm about this.....
