I think you're backwards on this.
It would make more sense to hold vehicles for a certain location until you have enough to fill a car carrier or train car, then ship them.

Out of curiosity, for those who are doing third party financing, has anybody secured their check yet, while having a vin assigned, but not having a delivery date set yet? Debating if I want to secure the loan and get the check from DCU now, because if I do it before Friday, I can still get the 1.99% rate, but after Friday, the rates are going up.
I'm picking it up in Charlotte as well and we have the same car unless you did a white interior. My EDD is 6/1-6/15 so we're likely going to see our cars at the same time. BTW, you can now add your details to your signature since this was your fifth post.

When was your order date and configuration? You have over 5 posts now, you can update your signature.
I have the same exact window of 05/29 - 6/26 for my EDDDreaded morning EDD update….
Was just 2 days away from the start of my 2 week window 5/20-6/3 and now pushed back to 4 week window 5/29-6/26

… maybe our cars are coming down on the same truck hahaThey have enough, but they have to dip into the base configuration vehicles to fill the transport. That's all that I'm theorizing here.
I just want you to get your car so I can retain my sanity over what the heck Tesla is doing with order prioritization.

Lets just hope the charge ports come on the new cars...
EDD update after three weeks. Moved from a five week window to four week window. New EDD is 06/10-07/08
I wish I could forget about it but I click on my widget about 20+ times a day. Not gonna lie. I think I'll get excited when I get a delivery date, like an actual appointment. And then physically seeing the car and the paint looks right and not go through what @ColoradoMike had to deal with and decline and go back to the waiting line. Like going to the grocery store waiting in line wrapped around the building when Covid hit and people were hoarding toilet paper and lysol. This waiting is testing me and strengthens my jealously when I see my same car on the freeway yet I'm on the outside and not inside driving that car. Thank goodness for TMC for you all are keeping me sane.

Exact same car as yours, ordered 2 weeks before you, in SoCal, still no VIN and EDD just extended to 5/23-6/6.
I seriously believe the VIN assignments are random like they pick them out of a clown hat or something!
Gotcha. Black interior here! Sounds like we maybe landing on the same day. Will look into the signature part.
Seeing this makes me think my EDD is going to get pushed back too, I’m in the OC area also.Exact same car as yours, ordered 2 weeks before you, in SoCal, still no VIN and EDD just extended to 5/23-6/6.

Hopefully yours move back up!
I think my pick up is in Burbank. I haven’t seen too many Feb orders in SoCal get their VINs so I wonder what’s going on. Thought we’d get a VIN any day now, definitely didn’t expect a pushback.

So I’m theorizing here but didn’t we see a huge push out west in the third month of last quarter? I haven’t been on here long enough to really see much prior to that but based on a few older posts I ran across, it seems that has been the quarterly pattern. The first month of this quarter was dead for deliveries but tons of VINs were assigned while they pumped out cars like crazy (because they sold all inventory in month 3 of 1st quarter), then month 2 is more East Coast deliveries, and month 3 is more West Coast? I know Elon said he didn’t like that delivery system but it seems like it is still the case. West coast delivery certainly was prioritized in March of this year but I wasn’t on the forum before then.
It seems like there was a 1-2 week period where they were shipping cars without the charge port ECU. Those cars are just sitting waiting on it and they have no idea when the parts will arrive, though it seems like they get a few at a time. There were maybe 20 cars at my service center waiting on charge ports a couple weeks ago, and they have been slowly getting completed and moved. Meanwhile, new cars coming in are all good to go.
Hi All, sorry if this is a dumb question.
My car is waiting on the "charge port". Are we talking about the port to charge the car?
I googled and searched on this forum looking for it and the only "charge port" that came up missing were the USB charge ports.
Just wondering what's holding up my car.
Thanks.
