What makes you say that about east coast orders? I thought (or more accurately I read online so yeah, gran of salt) that Tesla prioritized orders by distance from Freemont. The idea being that as the quarter comes to a close, the remaining orders are all closer to the factory, increasing the odds they get them delivered before quarter end.

Ordered: 6/29
EDD: Went from 7/9-7/29
Now it's at 11-17 weeks

Honestly at this point I think that whenever Tesla is batching out VIN numbers their software “gets confused and runs home to mama” and throws a generic weeks EDD til everything is updated.Ordered: 6/29

Seems to be a pretty heavy trend in the time I’ve been on the forums that we all get this and then more VINs are assigned. Then back to a date range.
Bonus points if anyone got the jonesy “Hunt for Red October” reference.
It's significantly easier and convenient to deliver to California and surrounding areas. There are fewer logistical challenges, self-induced or otherwise, and more local routes for delivery. There has been much discussion about Tesla's priorities (e.g., completing pre-delivery tasks, in-house financing, etc.) for queueing and delivering vehicles. We can apply all the logic to how things should work that we want, but the truth is Tesla doesn't even know what Tesla prioritizes.

I’m hoping for a delivery before October. Ordered July 1st with the original estimate at 7-11 weeks. If it comes in October I’m screwed.
I was just talking to a few insiders; an SA, a few guys in engineering at Fremont, and a guy working on stuff in Giga Berlin, none directly involved with production or with direct knowledge of production schedules. Like everyone else, I went from estimated delivery of now to 11-17 weeks land wanted to know why. Typically, at the start of the quarter Fremont is making foreign market cars. Different charge ports, steering wheel on the other side, different turn signals, etc. It isn't until mid-quarter that they change to North American production. With the delays in Giga Berlin and the recall in China, more foreign demand has been placed on Fremont for Q3.
The guess is that they have decided to switch to foreign market car production before fulfilling the slated NA market cars to meet long-standing order demand that China is falling down on and to get out another batch of Model Y that can't wait until Giga Berlin makes them. They make SR white, then blue/grey, then black/red, then do the same color order for LR, and finally performance. The SR guys are seeing 9 to 15 weeks, so it is entirely possible that the foreign market production will actually be running for the next 7 or 8 weeks before the switch back over to NA market production.

For context, I ordered in May and got a June 12th delivery date that I couldn't make work because I was out of the country on business. They wouldn't hold the car until I returned, released the VIN, and put my order on hold. I took it off hold June 21st which is my effective order date I guess. I had a July 12th to 23rd EDD during the first week of July, so that changing to 11-17weeks when I could have had the damn car for a month already is really frustrating. The realization that the EDD is probably based on actual logistics of switching production to foreign market cars is not great either. I'd really like to know for sure so I can buy a used ICE if I really have to wait 4 more months (buying the 3 after my car was totaled in a hit and run).
My config is LR Blue/White 19" no-FSD.

I don't see too many waiting as long as I have - I ordered April 18th. Get ready for long waits I guess.
Here are some of my recent EDDs:

The 11-17 weeks is just a placeholder, it's not your actual EDD.
I got an email from Tesla today and got excited. It was the NEMA 14-50 plug shipping. Date slipped from Aug 18-Sept 4 and now says 11-17 weeks. Blah.

FYI, my buddy's tire was replaced last night by Tesla at no charge. Glad Tesla took care of it and resolved the issue.
I ordered 4/14. Hope we don't have to wait much longer! I'm also in the 7-10 weeks camp today.
I'm super confused why I see 7-11 weeks, others see 8-12 weeks, and others see 11-17 weeks. I'm guessing your dealer/delivery location is the Dublin Dealership?
Like what type of RNG are they using? It makes no sense...
