Has anyone actually taken delivery in April 2022?
- Thread starter lol_gas_co
- Start date
Yeah, it's like a really addictive drug for companies. As soon as you employ that strategy 1x, you are basically damned to repeat if for the rest of time as everything is about vs prior quarter and vs year ago.They may have said that, but watching these forums especially in the later half of March tells me otherwise. Pretty much the only VINs going out were west coast, and there were so many being assigned especially in the last couple of weeks. As soon as March 31st passed, there was pretty much complete silence. If they truly weren’t pushing EOQ delivery anymore, VINs would be assigned equally across the country throughout the quarter (maybe even sequentially based upon order date), and there wouldn’t be a lull at the start of a new quarter.
Once Austin comes on line, they would be wise to blend in deliveries and the increased production in such a way that they don't have to play EOQ games anymore. It's rare a company gets to reset but I think they have the chance.
Yeah I kind of hoped they’d design Austin to be more of a lean production/just in time/Toyota kata/etc. type of plant, where different configurations can all be built at the same time, but I doubt that’s going to happen.

I used Google maps to find my local Austin Showroom. That provides a local number. When I call that, it routes me to some central number. One person I spoke to was in Arizona. I would find your local showroom number and call it, I bet it directs you to the same centralized place.
Do what I did. Call the local number and in the options select service and it connects you to local store. Then ask them for the extension of sales. Then call the number back and dial the extension.
Hmm, unless I am mistaken, Seattle would be considered "closer to California" and I would even dare to hazard that it would be also be considered on the west-coast? April, being the first month of the second quarter, and April 6th being the first week of the second quarter, would place it very close to the end of the first quarter. Am I missing something
I think I agree with this hypothesis. I got a vin assigned yesterday. MO region. Spoke with SA. Car manufactured 4/14. Delivery date 4/28
So now we're doing fuzzy calculations and using words like "very close"? Mine was assigned and delivered on the West coast AFTER the EOQ push. Full stop. You can't have it both ways.Hmm, unless I am mistaken, Seattle would be considered "closer to California" and I would even dare to hazard that it would be also be considered on the west-coast?

Look at the deliveries in PA, MD, Ontario, and other points East during the month of March. They don't support a "West coast EOQ" push.

Teslas (and EV's in general) are popular in CA, it's their number one market by a long shot, like nobody else is even close. These speculations are biased by seeing a few people posting taking delivery there , ignoring what scant data is available, and not factoring in the CA market being likely as big or bigger than the rest of the US combined for EV's and Tesla.

I agree with this but it does just seem like the East coast gets forgotten. Fiscally and logistically everything shows that CA will just get more deliveries because they have more orders but sometimes it feels as if the rules of the EDD don't always apply to CA orders.Look at the deliveries in PA, MD, Ontario, and other points East during the month of March. They don't support a "West coast EOQ" push.

I agree SA s are different the Dallas ones aren't great so far, but I don't have assigned SA.. I may try to call Austin tomorrow to see if they have any info!

I ordered a MYLR (white, black interior, induction wheels, no tow, no FSD) on October 1st. Date kept getting pushed back.
Changed my Order on Sunday April 10th to a Performance model and kept October pricing.
Less than 24 hours later I was assigned a VIN.
Shipped from Fremont this week and was in Dallas when I checked on Friday.
Scheduled my delivery for this coming Sat April 23rd.
