I *almost* want to get a peek behind the curtains at the production/inventory/delivery software Tesla is running more than I want my M3. There’s definitely a method to the madness and some subtle patterns out there, but I would love to know how they decide on production serials and how big they are. Our MY was super smooth from start to finish, but that was a mid-quarter purchase. They are clearly prioritizing the farther reaches of their orders first, but have to wonder if the Giga Berlin delays coupled with Austin coming on line aren’t tweaking out the order sorting and matching algos…these order windows are behaving exactly like a BI brain that isn’t *quite* sure that it knows what it’s saying.
When I picked up my car I asked multiple people until they relented… and assigned someone to stand by the car… as if I was going to drive away! They may let you inspect inside, but you may have to push.
So it seems like vin #'s after 153xxx (which is mine) (152 onwards) are the newer ones as my car was also built on 01/08, but i was told old cpu and no LI battery for mine..I'll be pissed if i see the car on tesla's site for sale and it has the new CPU...Which would mean 4 agents total wll have lied to me stating I have old CPU...

Hello, first post here. I hope I get my jargon right (haha0
Order Date 12/30/2021
EDD 1: Feb 17-Mar 17
EDD 2: Jan 28-Feb 25
I loved that but this morning, it went to
EDD 3: Feb 18-Mar 18
Black/White/19" tires/FSD
hoping it's Feb and not Mar, would love it if built in Texas but I'm sure there's no chance in the world. Just wanted to join the crowd and maybe get an idea of the wait/delivery times others are experiencing. I'm so new to this Tesla ordering thing, I don't even know an SA's phone number.

Hello!
Welcome, and don't feel bad. I'm on my 4th Tesla, and I have never spoke to anyone from delivery team. You'll learn more on this forum than what the SAs are sharing.

Thank you... I actually popped by there yesterday to ask a couple of questions... didn't ask for a number though. Hopefully my popping in isn't what bumped my EDD back again hehe

While discussion of whether the cars have a particular upgrade or other is on topic of a waiting room thread...
I would invite people wanting to have that particular discussion to have it in the thread for model year 2022 changes:
Model Year 2022 Refresh M3/MY
My SA says they are able to tell if the car has the upgrades or not. They've also said that they can't delay my order again 😬. Really hoping that all the new vehicles coming out of the factory have the proper upgrades...teslamotorsclub.com
It's pretty interesting that the Performance and Standard Range waiting rooms have also devolved into "Ryzen" waiting rooms. No one was ever this excited about the heat pump, the 4680, or even radar.
Hopefully someone at Tesla is realizing that people might not want any more video games but they sure want a faster processor.
If only they had one of those departments specifically designed for gauging consumer sentiment and handling customer and media interactions…
Any idea what one might call such an outfit??

Thanks for the heads up. I will paste my same reply here into those threads.
I'm getting there too. It's too stressful and time consuming. I will leave my phone off silence mode though. Reading about that one person who missed the call and got bumped again scared me a little. Loving your 3 stages of delivery states
I am hoping I am not the only one on here who actually cares about the environmental impact of consumerism and intends to keep their car for over 3 years
Congrats!!!! That just gave me so much hope it is indeed possible to one day get my car!
If you don't put in your financial tasks, you're not really in line. I ordered mine on 8/30, put in financial info on 11/29, which I believe is the actual date the real wait started. Still waiting that is.
How can you complete your financial task if you're doing a 3rd party lender which is only good for 30 days when deliveries generally take longer?

I was told to put it as paying in Cash. When the Vin and delivery date gets close, then Call them to update cash payment to loan payment and do the loan process.
That’s the frustrating part. I received a text about 2 weeks ago from Tesla that they were preparing for my upcoming delivery (my EDD was Jan 10th-24th) with explanations on touch-less delivery and also asked if I had any changes to make. So I changed from cash to 3rd party loan, got pre-approved so everything was setup because I thought things were moving and close. Then yesterday my EDD changed to Feb 18th-March 18th.
with the used car market what it is, looking like a yearly upgrade here!I am hoping I am not the only one on here who actually cares about the environmental impact of consumerism and intends to keep their car for over 3 years
