    Just to add: I had a delivery date of March 1, 2021 - March 31, 2021 and it also says just "March" now.

    For those that delivery changed from 3/1-3/31 to "March" - were those conversions from prerefresh or totally new orders?

    I think new orders will show "March" and conversions are showing no delivery. Not sure that it matters but it gives me something to do this morning...

    That quarter related thinking is an ongoing stupidity. As if it mattered, on the long term, whether a 'garanteed' profit is made on March 28th vs. April 3rd, or so.

    It would even be easier to declare a slighly bigger loss in the Model S/X departement, where everyone can see no cars have been produced, yet sold, for most of the quarter, and then present a bigger profit in Q2: "See, after re-starting production, and selling, people can't wait to send money!"

    But, badly, it never goes like that. They deliver as many as possible, of the newer, higher priced Plaid models, to show "a little less a mess a loss" in Q1, and the respective lower possible profit in Q2. Too bad one has to do business like that...

    I love when people use the terms "concerning" and "unsettling" related to when they get their 1 percenter cars. Its not groceries or electricity (well not really). I have 1 on order and could care less when it comes, it does when it does and no concerns. Now, I am excited and want it, but its not concerning.

    And I would like Tesla to fuss as needed to make and deliver cars with minimum problems so owners will be happy and there will be good reviews leading to further sales.

    Well if your lease is up and you are going from having a car to not while you live in a place without great public transportation(worse in pandemic) it can be a bit "concerning" or "unsettling" to not have a vehicle even though you planned ahead. Everyone's situation is different depending on where they live and their current situation.

    Also if you're coming from a "piece of shat car" to a more reliable vehicle

    Lastly it may be because you have nothing else to obsess over currently :)

    Did anybody who is due the $2,000 pre-order price reduction “Confirm” their financing on the Tesla website? I have been leaving the blue CONFIRM button untouched until I see the $2,000 price reduction reflected on the webpage. Just wondering if I am the only skeptic.

    I placed a new order for my first Tesla (the Long Range version) on 2/8. I believe it originally said "March" and then later switched to "3/1-3/31", and now back to "March". As a software developer, my guess is someone recently messed up the web site code that replaces a date range like "3/1-3/31" with "March" for simplicity. Once they noticed it not working, they probably went and fixed the problem. That kind of stuff happens all the time in software.

    @BillHenn Congrats on your new Tesla

    The Order Status page has been a source of entertainment and conjecture for going on 9 years now, I don't expect that to change.

    I placed my original order on 1/15, and had no "edit" button to convert my order to the refresh model.

    Last weekend I called my SA, and they updated my order to the new refresh for me. I asked about modifying my financing, because my original financing details were made under a different final price. (Also, I want to make sure the $2k comes off my total due on delivery, and not my amount financed).

    He said that at the end of February, everyone will be prompted to reconfirm their financing, and at this point the $2k discount will be reflected so you can make accurate plans. ‍♂️
