Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

[Blacked_Y]

I ordered the same specs as you except that I placed the order on 1/23 and my EDD is almost the same except 3 days later.

Where you located? I live in Western Florida near Destin but my delivery location is all the way in Jacksonville on the east coast. I think with 5 day difference in orders their would be a bigger difference in our EDD

I’m no expert but after scanning all the order dates on that week of 1/13, it seems that group are getting their vins about 2 weeks before delivery, which seem to land around 1-2 week of February. I ordered on 1/18 blue lr, no options, so I think this next week or 2 we should be getting vins and getting deliveries around 3/15-3/31. Or not

I have also been researching and found this article on Forbes from 23rd Jan.

Timing of Guidance​

The white paper promised that the proposed guidance would explain the extent to which taxpayers can rely on it until final rules are issued. The length of time that Treasury and the IRS anticipate needing between the proposed and final regulations may dictate that determination.

Considering the heavy roster of clean-energy guidance projects underway and the possibly large number of comment letters on the proposed guidance, the release of final rules could take longer than ideal.

If the proposed guidance is released in late March with a 60-day comment period, it will be nearly June before the IRS and Treasury even have all the comments to work with in preparing the final rules. Even with all possible speed, final regulations are still a fairly long way off.
"


It suggests is that the proposed guidelines might be released towards end of March. Also it can take another 60 days on top of it to be finalized and implemented. But on the other hand a Democratic Senator Joe Manchin moved a bill yesterday to pause EV credits until the guidelines are finalized. Lets see what happens but hoping for the best.

Thanks for sharing the above. My EDD is Mar 15th - 31st but I’ll be traveling internationally for 3 weeks starting the last week of Mar. So definitely worrying about the timing. Worst case if delivery date is during my trip, can I push it out or do I have to put my order on hold?

The Model Y I ordered on Jan 22 just arrived. It looks a bit diff than I remember. Roof needs some tint work. Interior space looks cramped. Can't connect with my Tesla App. Free rim upgrades though. Gonna give this one to one of my sons.

"Democrat Senator Joe Manchin" he's basically Republican in all but title lol. Highly doubt said bill will make it very far considering the Senate and House have opposing majorities.

ultimately it’s looking like the concerns of the actual date in march that the tax credit ends may be unwarranted. My EDD is 3/4-3/31, so that provides me some relief.

My EDD is also exactly the same. Whats your config and order date ?

 

[sidewinder]

yeah i read earlier you're picking up in jacksonville so its definitely not distance. sucks but there is still a chance for full credit. (i hope)

I'm up in New Jersey only 30 min away from my delivery location. I saw one person say they are making the cars in batches based on color and doesn't seem like many people ordered Black exterior so they put us all last. Was regretting picking a black exterior for a bit until I saw a few places saying that the IRS's decison in March likely won't take effect until May/June so just keeping my fingers crossed for now.

this is from the spreadsheet so white is by far the popular color so i'm pretty sure they are higher priority at the factory.

Pearl White Multi-Coat	1821	36.9%
Midnight Silver Metallic	1147	23.2%
Deep Blue Metallic	1096	22.2%
Solid Black	441	8.9%
Red Multi-Coat	435	8.8%

would be interesting to see what reds are getting for edd.

Hell why don't they just spit out the black color real quick and get those out the way lol! I do believe the tax credit will get extended, I would be surprised if it didn't. If they really want to take lead of China on EVs and help push the automotives companion/ help economy it would be best to do so

I saw a couple people earlier with red that had delivery dates in February but they also ordered like 1/13 so that's likely why. hopefully they don't push back black orders too much if there are delays with the other colors. Kinda disappointed I'll have to wait until April at least for my black MY

What source did you get this from? interesting breakdown and makes sense on why black is delayed. That number of cars does seem really low tho.
Looking at the positives on my end, I'm signing up for FPL time of use program so I can charge at off peak hours at a lower rate. According to their website it's about a 3 month wait for install

Did you calculate from the beginning of the spread sheet? You should calculate form 1/13/23 to get more of an accurate number. Being that there was a 13k discount, people are willing to pay extra for colors.

What federal tax credit for nema 14-50? I haven't heard of this, can you guys provide a link to the source?

We just paid to have a NEMA 14-50 installed in our garage. Cost me $500 + $200 permit to get it installed right below our breaker. Plan to use a mobile charger. Thought it was kinda expensive for just 1 outlet but...what's done is done. Other options were $1500 for the tesla charger included + choice of location, was debating between the two. Oh well, figured NEMA would be better in case we move (or if we buy other EVs later on)

Hi. I thinks Duke Energy do

Honestly facts, it'd be so much better if they did the cars with more expensive colors first. They'd get slightly more money faster.

I've seen several people with high prices on a wall charger install. Not sure if it's highly dependent on area but where I live I got three quotes and they were all around $600 for a 60 amp breaker on a dedicated circuit and the charger right beside my breaker box. Company I went with offered military discount so ultimately it only cost me $580 for the install. None of them mentioned anything about a permit so I'm assuming that's state dependent? I think you can also use the Tesla Wall Charger with other EVs with an adapter you can buy.

Where did you get this, I’ve been searching for one.

I couldn't find it, so I just bought it on ebay. He only had 2 and I bought them both brand new for $8 w/shipping, wasn't too terrible. Bought 1 for each of my kids, so they can have a Model Y in white just like their dad haha

That's a really good point man, isn't that like a Tesla thing anyway? If you order FSD or performance variants you typically get priority ahead of normal orders. They should do the same for their premium paints!
