Just for fun (and to quench my EDD obsession), I wanted to see what was happening with the order-to-VIN length of time this year. I took the spreadsheet data and went back to VINs assigned for each month from May to September. What I found was an ever-increasing time between order date and VIN assignment. Here's the averages:
(The month here is the month where the VIN was assigned, not the order month.)
May- 47 days from OD to VIN assignment in May-235 VIN assignments in May
June- 45 days from OD to VIN assignment in June (Dropped 2 days from previous month)-232 VIN assignments in June
July- 65 days from OD to VIN assignment in July (increased 20 days from previous month)-107 VIN assignments in July
August- 77 days from OD to VIN assignment in August (increased 12 days from the previous month)-168 VIN assignments in August
September(up to 9/13)- 90 days from OD to VIN assignment in September (increased 13 days from the previous month)-Can't really count this because the month isn't finished but 60 VINs in the first 13 days
People in September are waiting double the amount of time for VIN assignment than people were in May and June.
Is there an ever increasing number of MYLR orders that are outpacing production or is Tesla decreasing the number of MYLR produced in the past few months? If production is decreasing, that is a problem for those of us with MYLR orders since it looks like new order numbers are steady or increasing. VIN assignments are decreasing from May-June to July-August.

If someone has an order for a MYLR5 white on white with 19s and tow and has a 2021 EDD but wants to wait for the tax credit, I'd be happy to swap for my "we'll get to your order sometime in 2022" order. Haha!
