ordering a P doesnt push back LR orders, are you delusional?When your P orders were pushing back LR orders, did you feel that was wrong? Why do you feel differently now?

So with this theory the LR would also push back the P, correct? So why is the P months ahead of the LR?I believe that you think there is more production capacity than there is.
They're not making the LR and P simultaneously. When one is made, the other stops. Every P order pushed back LR orders.
How do you think they're being made? Are you under the impression that there is a completely separate production line just for the P?ordering a P doesnt push back LR orders, are you delusional?
Because higher margin cars were given priority.So with this theory the LR would also push back the P, correct? So why is the P months ahead of the LR?
I disagree. This leaves those of lesser means behind. I know, that's how our society in general works but it shouldn't work that way. Even if I cold do this, I wouldn't just on principle.pay an extra fee to bump up the priority.
Hi Bradbrok,You swapped, so you feel differently. You changed your mind and got a car destined for someone who originally wanted it before you changed your mind. There are indeed two lines, and you jumped the queue. Not your fault, it's Tesla's broken VIN assignment system that allows for this.
I don't feel like that's the solution here either. Paying for priority is dumb and will just lead to more upset customers. I wanted the Performance Y from the beginning, and had one on order back in 2020 but had to forfeit due to it not lining up with my MS75D lease end. The order times for MYPs is actually quite short. Less than 2 months if you don't get bumped down the line. Just go to the back of the P queue and wait slightly longer. It does say that changing your order will lead to delays.Its fine for the change, but the change to P should not prioritize the order. There should be an option to be able to change order and keep spot in line or pay an extra fee to bump up the priority.
Priority, yes. I'm not saying they're on different productions lines, they're not. However they're different vehicles. Thinking that somehow the P version would push back the LR is simply inaccurate. The LR would get pushed back regardless due to demand. The P carries a premium, hence why you usually see less. The demand is still high, but much less than the LR, hence the quicker EDD. When people swapped from LR -> P, they effectively freed up a spot for a LR reservation, and created one for a P. How this would somehow correlate to "I deserve my car quicker now because I swapped" doesn't make much sense here. While the EDD would shrink, it should not go ahead of someone who originally ordered a MYP.Because higher margin cars were given priority.
I have been in the factory on a tour. They make a batch of orders, retool, then make another batch. New P orders don't bump LR orders. They will continue to make n-number of specific variations no matter what to meet their goals for the quarter. If you so happen to want that variation you will get it faster.I believe that you think there is more production capacity than there is.
They're not making the LR and P simultaneously. When one is made, the other stops. Every P order pushed back LR orders.
P orders and LR orders are two separate queues. LR orders have the delay because of the higher demand, not because of people buying a P. These cars are all built in separate batches. So, NO i dont feel differently.When your P orders were pushing back LR orders, did you feel that was wrong? Why do you feel differently now?
I don't think adding a tow would bump you back, would it? I'd call on that, seems like a smaller thing to add.It's cool of Tesla to give the order changers the old price when they don't have to. It's lame of them to push them in front of existing MYP orders. I kind of want to add a tow hitch to my existing MYP order (placed in February that I'm still waiting for) but am scared to risk getting bumped back. I don't blame LR switchers for taking advantage of the system, but the system is bullshit. It's obnoxious for anyone to say otherwise.
Its called demand.. The demand for LR is higher, they switch P and LR production in batches.. there were less MYP to make than LR hence the shorter wait times. Just because I ordered a MYP with a 2-3 month wait doesn't mean that you have to wait longer for your LR.How do you think they're being made? Are you under the impression that there is a completely separate production line just for the P?
It wouldn't make sense for demand by itself to push back orders already placed. The only way they get pushed back is if others orders are put in front of them.Priority, yes. I'm not saying they're on different productions lines, they're not. However they're different vehicles. Thinking that somehow the P version would push back the LR is simply inaccurate.

Think of it this way: (explanation only, I remember this fiasco)
XBOX Series X releases along with the digital-version Series S or whatever it was. You preorder a Series S because you want the coolness of the new xbox without the premium. When you realize many more people want that and it'll take forever to get it, you order a Series X instead because you know you'll get it quicker because it's ~$200 more expensive. Would you jump ahead of all of the others who initially ordered the X? No, that would be silly, you did not want that to begin with.
I'm not being sensitive, as I've said before I don't have much of a leg to stand on considering I haven't been waiting that long, I'm more-so generalizing here, and speaking about people who have waited for much longer than I. Would it be considered fair if you order a LR at the same time as someone who orders a MYP, then when you see their EDD is lower than yours, you switch and end up receiving yours first? It would be asinine to assume that would be fair. You'd effectively be skipping that person who ordered the MYP at the same time as you with your other vehicle.Some people are being really sensitive.

Where do you think they made it?Its called demand.. The demand for LR is higher, they switch P and LR production in batches.. there were less MYP to make than LR hence the shorter wait times. Just because I ordered a MYP with a 2-3 month wait doesn't mean that you have to wait longer for your LR.
Lol.. you're not understanding my point but ok. Not here to argue with you just prove the facts.Where do you think they made it?

If there is one production line making LR and P, then every time they make P they must interrupt production of LR, correct? I'm not sure how else you think they're doing this.Lol.. you're not understanding my point but ok. Not here to argue with you just prove the facts.
