Deep breath. It’s not confirmed that they’re forcing people into AWD yet.Well the Model Y just moved out of our price range without the RWD.

Pretty sure you’re wrong because the screenshot of my order says 18” Aero Wheels.Pretty sure only 19, 20, 21 inch wheels are available for Model Y, there is no 18 inch option.

And “available” doesn’t mean anything when it hasn’t shipped.
And SR as well..My guess is that 18" wheels will come standard on the SR+ variant of Model Y.
I just found out about this a few minutes ago when I went to the website for the first time in quite a few months. They still show my order as the LR RWD, but changed the wheels on me to the 20" induction which I don't like because they are black and I don't like the lack of contrast. When I went to change my order, I noticed the options were to switch to the LR AWD or performance versions which I did not change. But the site did not accept my change of wheels, maybe because I didn't select either of the AWD options? I have no interest in an AWD car and don't want to drag around all the extra weight or care about the performance which will never get used, not to mention the added cost. I have not heard from Tesla yet and it concerns me. If they have been holding my$2,500 for so many months with no recourse for me, that would be really poor customer service and a possible deal-breaker for sure.

Not saying I don’t believe you, but I don’t see that on the FAQ page when I look. Maybe it’s a Canada/US difference where ours isn’t updated yet?Tesla updated the Model Y FAQ Model Y Ordering FAQ

The Ford Mach E is already sold out. ICE car manufacturer have a conflict of interest,and they will build only enough required compliant cars.I can afford to spring for the higher AWD, but if they discontinue the RWD model and don’t honor preorders, I’m out of the Tesla brand to be honest. It won’t be about money but it will be about losing trust with Tesla.
That will make me move over to Ford Mach E. I have a reservation for both a Tesla Y RWD (placed about a month ago after reconsidering an earlier position I had on not doing a preorder) and one reservation for a Mach E California Edition.
I’m in the same boat. I wish Tesla gives some update on LR RWD. Doesn’t matter if they come late. Atleast it will give an expected timeframe..My suspicion is that Tesla no longer has interest in producing the RWD MY because AWD offers them more margin, they don't want the complexity to the assembly line (especially during ramp up), and their pre-order demand is likely more than a year's worth of estimated production. The RWD *might* reappear once they are past all those things. I am disappointed because I don't need AWD and am very price conscious. They've likely outpriced me for 2020. I'm a very happy stock holder and a very disappointed customer today.
For me and my situation, if the time line is more than 6 months longer for RWD I’ll probably buckle and get AWD. I would rather save the money, but holy *sugar* am I impatient!I’m in the same boat.
