Then you're just bumping people right outside of that cutoff, still screwing the line at a different point.
To me it would be fair to use the swap date as the new OD on the P queue.

A big reason I didn't order a P in the first place was all the stuff I heard about the rough ride.
Test drove it and didn't see what the big deal was. But I guess it's because I look at it as a sports vehicle that just happens to be practical. I've never liked cushy feeling cars. I need information from the road.
Sales associate said it could. Now I’m within two weeks of estimated date so scared to rock the boat. Should’ve done it earlier
For MYP, adding Tow or FSD or a premium exterior/interior color does NOT speed up your EDD.
What I'm implying is that Tesla should lock in a "Guaranteed to be delivered" range for every buyer. Any EDD before that range should be an estimated range, so that people don't start selling their cars and locking in financing rates thinking they'd get their cars imminently.
Using the swap date as OD is not ideal for Tesla. They'd lose all the customers who wanted to swap.
Somewhere my long dead statistics professor is shouting into the void....
Really isn’t the entire problem Tesla’s business model? You know, delivery the most they can per quarter and make the most highly profitable cars quicker.
If they were a people oriented company they would try to be as fair as supply supports and once they made and shipped a car give you more than three days to get it or lose it. (It’s not like they don’t have room at the dealerships)

Order the car you want, it’s more $ to add the Tesla tow hitch after you take delivery.

I think a lot has to do with supply chain and increasing costs associated. So for example - if you ordered in 2021 and are locked into a price range for LR and P and Tesla wasn’t able to manufacture at the pace they expected due to supply constraints - in todays supply costs, Tesla wants to get those orders fulfilled asap be it if the order switched to P or not because the costs of components for those cars have increased (they might have only locked in a certain date range of fixed supply costs themselves.)
This because I’d wager a guess that Tesla is forecasting the component costs to increase further. They’ve already priced this into current orders but they’re in a model where they haven’t priced it into past ones. So they need to get the past ones fulfilled at the cheapest cost possible before the component costs increase further.
There was probably a “happy window” where the difference in price between P and LR mitigated this and allowed for P to be prioritized (Q1) but looking at how they’re bumping the orders it seems this time has passed.
In the end, its lucky us who’ve got the prices locked in because of I’m right they’re forecasting to only go in up direction moving forward. Still wish my 03/04 order would have got a vin by now the way that people who switched from a Nov LR order to P on that date already have though.

Professionally review a car? Tesla owners are the craziest for spending money on silly things.
PPF the whole car for $7k!!!! 10 layers of ceramic coat another $2k!!!!
Sometimes I think I’m on a Bugatti forum. Y’all are nuts.
The SA told me. That my MYP will come with Summer tires. Pirelli. Idk. Even one else get that response? I’m in Texas. Yea it’s hotter than a Whore house on Pay Day. But why not All season? Idk.
I wasn’t saying that it does. The SA said it could delay my EDD by making a change this close or the delivery. The tow is low priority for me and I’ve come to terms with adding it later if I need it or really want it even if it costs more.
