Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room
- Thread starter Tiger
- Start date
My SA not only responded but provided an interesting tidbit that at least I wasn't aware of (maybe others have heard the same and shared here previously). Tl;dr is my position in the queue is not based on my order date (5/31/21) but rather based on when I completed my profile (apparently 7/16/21). Very annoying, and I wish this had been made clear at the time:

The MXLR EDD moves are likely due to the China shut downs. Tesla needs to do everything they can to make up for the lack of Shanghai production. With demand as high as it is, moving all deliveries to higher margin cars is a feasible survival move to salvage the quarter. If the ability to get the old price is available, switching to Plaid is not a terrible option. If this drags out too long, I can see them refunding the order fees and canceling cars that were sold/offered too cheap.
My wife is yelling at me now because of this crap. Ugh.

I am hopeful this is just another July 2022. Someone else can get nearly the same date if you ordered today....Jan 2023 to April 2023.
I am June 2021 order - so not the oldest of orders (MX, Silver, Cream, 22", No FSD, 5 seat).
It does seems to behoove Tesla, if they continue to honor old pricing, to get the older orders off their books as quickly as possible - with even normal inflation, materials, etc...

Ive been lurking this thread since page 400'ish. I have an August order LR 5 seater that as also bumped back to Dec-April 2023. something to note is its the same date range if you were to order a new one now. If I had to guess this looks like a bad code push that did an unintended bulk update since it seems everyone with a July EDD now has this. It will be a fun COE to read if Im right.
I got the same response when telling mine earlier...

Agreed. I think someone walks the warehouse and figures out what they have in stock (wheels, interior trim/seat colors, etc) to support the next day's production. Then they figure out to where they can get trucks/trains to deliver the cars. Only then do they look and match up orders to those cars.
The only thing Tesla cares about is delivering as many cars as they can. Everything else is secondary.
I mean, if that is true that is total horseshit. There isn't even a way to "complete" financing when you are 1+ year out from delivery since it will expire by then. None of those extra steps of the profile are relevant to the build of the car, it is only relevant to the delivery.
I’m surprised by you all.
By now you should know that those EDD changes means nothing.
Everyone who got delivery in the recent couple of weeks had a July EDD and to the best of my knowledge we’re still in may.

The moment you quit this thread and stop giving a ****, you get a VIN.
I ordered in August 2021 and just got my delivery date pushed back again to Dec 2022 - Mar 2023. I'm considering buying another car in the interim because I'm renting a car now which feels like a waste of money. But what if I buy and they suddenly say the car is ready??? What should I do??
Ok. I quit. Did you hear that Elon? Did you hear that Tesla? I QUIT...
