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

[Andrometer4]

There is a MY model that Tesla name Model Y AWD. It is using 4680 batteries. It is only made in TX. You can't order it through Tesla.com. Every week or two Tesla dumps a bunch into inventory and you can order from there. Last week they dumped 300 cars and all are now sold.

If you order a MYLR or MYP it will have 2170 batteries regardless of factory.

You can sign up for inventory alerts through waitingfortesla.com to find out when the next dump happens.

MYAWD has lower range than LR. 279 vs 330. It is currently $4K cheaper than LR.

3 k cheaper.

Where have you read this? I would love for this to be correct but would also like to see it written some where.

Elon called this out in 2022 q3 earning call. I am not sure why this information are quite difficult to search out now, maybe Tesla specifically want to hide this information to tease more sales in Q1.

While I'm very happy for yous guys (said in my best NJ accent) - I have to wonder why this is happening to us Ny/NJers.. also am extremely envious.

Again my OD: 1/28, EDD was 03/20-03/31 and is now April 19 - May 31

MYLR - Grey/Black, tow hitch, 19" tires, not being financed, delivery to showroom in Cherry Hill, NJ (near Philadelphia)

It's the tow hitch isn't it?

I think it's more the location than the options. You're close to as far as you can be from the source.
For me:
MYLR Whi/Blk 19" Tow hitch (delivery to Tucson)
OD: 1/27
Initial EDD: Feb-Mar
Updates a few days later EDD: 3/16-3/31
Still the same EDD today. No change on the big 2/14 pushout. Patience Grasshopper...

If that were the case, he wouldn’t let Tesla’s website say the EV credit only applies up to March.

Here’s a snippet…

Elon Musk -- Chief Executive Officer and Product Architect

Well, yeah, I mean I think just at a high level, I'd say, we do expect to fully meet the IRA's requirements. Do you want to add?

Zachary Kirkhorn -- Chief Financial Officer

Yeah. We view that passing of the Inflation Reduction Act, there's a significant boost toward accelerating automation, while also scaling the battery supply chain at large in the United States. We expect Treasury to publish detailed guidance by the end of the year. Until such time, it's difficult to fully determine the eligibility criteria, but we believe Tesla is very well-positioned to capture a significant share of that for solar storage and also electric vehicles.

That message is because Tesla wanted to tease more sales in q1. And, M3 will most likely only get half or 0 credit.

So, you’re just making assumptions, then?

My friend picked up Austin build car. It's amazing and flawless. Not even a small scratch. So overall it's amazing

This is reassuring to hear!! I’m excited

Has any MYP order from early February converted to VIN yet? Mine has been stuck on the Mar 4 - Mar 31 for about a week.

I am not making assumption, based all information I have，the MY will qualify for all battery requirement following IRS Dec white paper. M3 SR will not due to battery made in China.

I see some people mention that they got an email or text a week or two before they get a vin. Is that the norm or will vin get updated with out advance notice

That's just generic text sent to all. So can be ignored.

Nothing yet here either. My dates are Mar 8 - Mar 31.

We didn’t get either email/text regarding future VIN.
Just checked the app one late evening and saw it updated. Next morning, got a text about the VIN.

Nope. Still showing 2/25-3/25

 

[TrojanAlum]

Sweet! My OD was 1/28 and I'm now on track for a 2nd quarter build/delivery...

Hopefully some hw updates will be included do to the iteration process but who knows at this point. I realize it would NOT be Hw 4 at this early stage but would be happy with a Hw 3.5 if that were possible. Pure fantasy of course but one can dream...

Oh man. I’m sorry. Delivery dates are literally all over the place.

It's the tow hitch isn't it?

I'm starting to wonder... My OD was 1/15, the only option I added was a tow hitch and I'm still waiting for a VIN.

Not yet! Still says Feb 23-Mar 23

 

[fightinghippo]

How long do we have to change the config? Can it be changed even after getting vin? Sorry for noob questions

You might want to remove your street address from your profile.

Thankn You

Ordered on 2/3, yet to get VIN and ODD still shows Feb - March. Spoke to SA and was informed that the car is still in pre-production. I see that they added more AWD today. Hoping that that’s a sign that the delivery is around the corner!

I think yours is coming soon! I ordered in the same day and now my EDD was updated to 2/17-2/28 today! I only live a few hours from the Fremont plant so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it

 

[onvacayfaraway]

Mmm

Maybe you need a new bank or CU? Mine has pre-approved me and said once they have a VIN, they could do final approval and wire the funds within a couple hours. They've done several of these with Tesla and know the drill.

well, they offer 1.99% for 60mth. It’s worth the hassle
