How long is one supposed to wait?!?!

[gprice0218]

Hey everyone-

I ordered my Y back in September 2021. Currently my delivery date has consistently been pushed, but landed on a July-ish timeframe. It remained there for quite some time, but now it says October! Is anyone else having to wait over a year for this car? I find it quite amazing that people wait that long. Is there any advise or insight on this?

Thanks!!!

Things are pretty volatile right now in terms of EDDs because of people adding FSD to try to bump up their dates or changing their configuration because you can do that now without being updated to current pricing. I would expect/hope it moved back up when things settle down.

Seems like 95% of production priority each week is given to the highest priced variants first with only 5% of production allocated to vehicles with longest order date.

The sad reality is that everyone who ordered FSD jumped ahead of you and new orders with FSD will continue to jump ahead of you

if you have a working car, then you have time to wait. I wanted to replace my outback before it turned 10, so I had a 1-2 year horizon. In my case, it goes to family, but if one wanted to sell the current model, there is some incentive to get it done now, as the absurd pricing for used cars can't last indefinitely. In that situation, it may pay off from a dollar standpoint to pay the premium for the P model.

The Y is the most oversold model for Tesla (or maybe the X which wasn't being built). For the other brands, most are sold out for 2022 as they are just starting to produce at small scale, as demand continues to surge. Rivian and F150 folks may be looking at 2024 as best case.

True. I jumped the line when I added FSD in mid January. My order date was 1/4/22

It's not fair, but that's how capitalism works.

I tried to cut the line. 10/7 OD, added FSD, and literally nothing happened to my EDD. Still waiting for any kind of movement.

it's not clear that FSD does as much as P does.

Wow, that really sucks! I also placed my order in September and just got my VIN. The only time I had that much of a shift in delivery date was when my loan app expired and I lagged on resubmitting it, which changed the status of my profile to "incomplete" and put me at the end of the list. Have you tried calling and talking to a SA to get any insight?

I had a August 2022 EDD, and I was bumped up to mid March after adding FSD, it took about 2 weeks. Eventually I got pushed back a little like everyone else but now I have a VIN and a 5 day EDD for the last few days of March.

Edit: My OD was 1/4/22

You are part of the west coast End Of Quarter push. If you don't get a delivery at the end of March you might be pushed three months out.

I highly doubt it. I have a few options on my car and we know Tesla likes to prioritize high priced vehicles. But who knows

Tesla closes FSD Capability loophole that shortened delivery wait times for free

Tesla made a change to their website earlier this month that allowed customers to significantly shorten their delivery wait time by adding Full Self-Driving Capability to their order. In the case of a Model Y, […]

Same happened to me FSD didn’t do anything. I’m on the east coast so that may be why. The quarter end push has us on low priority.

I have a MYP OD march 14 with an EDD of May-July. Should I expect that to be pushed back pretty far?

I’m in Seattle. EOQ West Coast push might be cali only?

Someone else said that it took 2 weeks when they added it to their order for it to move. I think if you add it when you order it happens immediately. But maybe it can take a bit if you do it after the fact.

Tesla corrected the software ordering error that allowed FSD to get moved up. That technique no longer works (according to Tesla)

No, that’s not correct. FSD still moves the order up. What they removed was the loophole that allows you to cancel FSD after you get moved up and get your VIN and still keep that early delivery. You can till cancel it, but it boots you all the way back to the end of the line.

OP, your initial question, How Long Do We Have To Wait? ... is one of the great unanswerable philosophical questions of our time.
Like, "what does it all mean?” “Is there a God?” and “Will the white interior show stains?"
