For me my sales tax was included with my final price... not sure why it's not in there.

Not so weird, lol. You'll see that EDD come, go, comeback, change, etc... all without notification. Honestly, it's probably not healthy to check it too often. If you do get an email or text notification from Tesla, then you've probably got a more concrete update to work with.

Not constantly checking but don’t want to be caught with my pants down like your car is coming tomorrow type of thing (I know that is unlikely but can’t put it pass them)

Yeah idk why either, misleading to say "Includes taxes, fees, order fee and payments" when it doesn't account for the sales tax.
Didn't I hear that Texas cannot sell within the state? That Tesla has to ship the cars out of state then bring them back in?
Not sure if this helps but this is the article I'm thinking about
They don’t message you with EDD updates.
That’d be a ton of text messages trust me.
Just buckle up and enjoy the ride.
Try not to spam the site too much. The EDD doesn’t matter anyhow, just wait on that text or email.
If your in Texas when the vehicle is registered at the local tax office is when you will pay sales tax. It seems like Sales tax wasn't included in the sale, then Tesla changed it to include Sales Tax, and now it's back to not including Sales Tax in Texas. Quite a mess.

Wonder how that would affect the sales tax not being listed on Tesla's site tho. Strange.Didn't I hear that Texas cannot sell within the state? That Tesla has to ship the cars out of state then bring them back in?
Not sure if this helps but this is the article I'm thinking about
not gonna lie... I hope that this also allows me to get my car quicker.**Fingers Crossed** that everyone dropping out that mine will be moved to me quicker

Maybe since you are not "Tech" buying inside the state of Texas that the sales tax would be tacked on at the DMV or something along those lines... Uncle Sam is going to get you one way or another.. Kinda like buying a used car/boat when you go and register it you are paying a sales tax?... Just spit balling here.
I have called 3 times and it goes to their voicemail.
Probably due to the mass amount of people calling now checking on their orders.
I swear that when I get someone on the line, I am going to get the employee that has had to answer the same question 1000 times, who just wants to go home and drink himself to sleep.
I think it's because since Tesla is not officially selling you the car in Texas (it's set up as an out-of-state import by the consumer), they are not charging you a sales tax. However, you're applying for title in Texas and paying the tax at that time. At least that's my lame attempt at understanding the legal status of Tesla sales in Texas (where I used to live until 5 months ago).
