Hi all - I'm new to the site (first replied to someone yesterday... sorry for double reply!)
Few things:
1) As an EDD reference, my order from 24-Apr updated yesterday to 14-Oct - 01-Nov (MS LR, White / Black / 19" / FSD). (I've added to the xls sheet)
2) I disagree with those that suggest they're prioritizing the tesla tax mostly based on margins. Yes, I've seen that the 21" are being delivered faster, but like the other configs, this seems more a function of raw material / semi-FP availability / line optimization than only caring about margin. And sure, if order dates are relatively similar, prioritize higher margin cars with the 21"... that makes sense - but if margin was their highest priority, then my white paint would also be deprioritized (and I don't see any evidence of this). Moreover, if Tesla really only cared about margins, then they would have DE-prioritized the 3/Y over the S/X rather than the other way around... right? Yet Tesla probably surmises (correctly), that those who place orders for the 3/Y are more fickle / sensitive to delays... and more importantly, it was production / supply challenges for the S/X... so its probably those same production / supply challenges affecting EDDs rather than tesla tax. Especially those suggesting the 10k tesla tax are getting folks much different delivery dates for the same configuration... I have yet to see any pattern of evidence to support this.... and I've been digging hard into this for... well.. since I found this forum yesterday evening...
3) Speaking of spending too much time looking for trends.... I'd can already tell this site is going to seriously impact my productivity for my actual job... so thanks for that!
Cheers
