Logistics to further away places takes precedent. Since cars are run in batch runs by color and trim it depends a great deal what order and how many in the run are made. How those get parceled out I don’t know if anyone here knows how the VINs get assigned. Maybe by no-trade-in as a quick in-out of DC, and then other criteria but who knows.
I am hoping that this quarter numbers, and the opening of the Chinese Gigafactory will change they way they do business so they no longer plan a full quarter solely on the basis of being able to deliver they absolute highest number of cars in a specific quarter.
That is, make cars in batches, but fulfill placed orders as efficiently as you can by date placed(within reason) Holding ALL California orders until they have filled European, Asian, Eastern US, Midwest and the rest of the Western states sucks. Some people getting there cars tonight ordered in OCTOBER, solely because Tesla is still driven by the belief that hitting a specific number of cars delivered is more important than customer satisfaction.
