Plaid S Delayed?

It should be further down on the page. If you can't find it, search for Estimated Delivery on the order page.
It will probably reset in a few days. The order estimator has a tendency of resetting to if you had placed the order today. Check back in 3-5 days and it should go back.

O I hope that's the case. but still worried because I placed this order back in Jan

Yeah, I would be surprised if you don't get your car in March or early April. (if it's a plaid)

Correct, the EDD's are assigned automatically. In your case, being your delivery locale involves more effort on Tesla's part. It would seem they haven't come up with EDD for you yet. The "prepare for delivery" is the generic term for them, usually asking for more information in some cases.
Let us know if you get any update changes.
I didn't see his location, good catch and this is solid advice. I had assumed it was the top of page generic "prep for delivery" message when you have selected cash.

His was the first I've seen going to Puerto Rico. It was a bit of an assumption on my behalf. But seeing the daily difficulties that Tesla has with run of the mill logistics, it seemed to be the most viable answer.
I decided to order a Plaid simply due to not wanting to be strung any longer with my MS LR order. You can see how that worked out.

Tesla's concept of EDD seems to be more of a mental test for their customers, then a true date of any consequence.
I placed a order at the end of June for a MS LR. My first EDD was in September. Here I sit with a current EDD of 4/2-4/30 since January. I have so much confidence in that EDD I ordered a Plaid thinking I'd get it sooner. Same company, same results so far.
The tool Tesla uses to calculate EDDs sometimes will default you to an EDD as if you had placed the order just as the calculation is run. So if you get a date that's way out, I'd just give it a few more days before taking it seriously.

Ah, thanks. All three SA's I have spoken with in the past three weeks have said first two weeks of March looking at some other system. They said I've completed all info I can do. Maybe that's the soft match. Though it is the 7th and nothing yet. Lol. Whatever...
just talked to a quite unhelpful SA that told me that all model S cars where delayed, but wouldn't give me any more info 
I'd disregard unsubstantiated comments from SAs like that. Unfortunately the majority of them know about as much as anyone on this forum.just talked to a quite unhelpful SA that told me that all model S cars where delayed, but wouldn't give me any more info

Well they slipped me again. March 8-20 -> March 12-26. Ordered Dec 4th for God's sake. All account info complete. Paying cash from day 1. Red, fully loaded. This ED system is not a good thing. I have to think they really are waiting on a batch of Red. I didn't know it was so unpopular.
It’s been the 6th time for me. When you get to that date, it gets pushed out again 2-3 days later.
