- Model Y order tracker survey
I got the same text just now except they're saying 2-4 weeks. I'm in Alberta. Config is blue performance Y with white interior, FSD, and tow hitch.
I'm bummed, I ordered on July 12th (LR AWD 20" w/ tow hitch) with the estimated 4-8 week delivery window. Now, 3 weeks in, I just got a text pushing things out 5-8 weeks from today. So it seems that the initial 4-8 weeks that they were suggesting is more like 8-12 weeks. I kind of wish we hadn't sold our car the other day... good thing we have another car. My fault for jumping the gun I guess.
Hi, everybody. I have updated the question about the Delivery Preparation Email based on the text posted here by @LNL_HUTZ. I copied it below.
@LNL_HUTZ, yes that is the Delivery Preparation Email. Even if it wasn't before, it definitely is now after I changed the question to match your email. Cheers.
It's interesting that Tesla's email asks people to finalize their checkout. Is finalizing checkout a new term? This creates the impression that buyers haven't actually completed the checkout until they complete these steps. I'm not sure whether that's officially the case or not but I want to make sure the survey uses the same terms Tesla uses during the purchase process. They keep making changes. Therefore let me know if you see any question where we should update the wording. Thanks.
By the way, I'm pretty sure those updated delivery timelines (4-8 weeks, etc) mean they will do everything humanly possible to deliver all cars they can by the end of Q3. Tesla really wants to reach 500K deliveries this year and they have a pretty good chance, I would say 95% chance. Therefore, they want to maximize Q3 deliveries. Sometimes they even have bonuses for delivery staff in the US if they hit certain quarterly targets. If you are interested in quarterly/yearly Tesla deliveries or delivery estimates, you can follow me on Twitter here. My last estimate for Q3 2020 was 145K here. I'm working on an update.

@Troy So I obviously don't know what the transaction used to look like, but this was definitely the impression I formed too--the order didn't seem to become "final" until I entered the information, including the financing application. It is a lease, which conceivably could have something to do with it, right? Have you given thought to adding a column for cash/loan/lease?
Hi, folks. I'm thinking of removing the 'Finalize Checkout Email' column, formerly known as 'Delivery Preparation Email' column. It looks like it almost always shows 0, 1, or 2 days after ordering. Let me know if there is something else we should track that happens before delivery.
What else would you like to ask other Model Y buyers that you might find useful to know?

I received pictures of the car and it is still wrapped in plastic, so those that are getting a car much quicker and think it's a reject, that is not the case, at least for me.

I’m really disappointed in Tesla. Today is the 8 week mark since placing my order on 6/12/20 and with the exception of one call to apologize for the delay and say they are working on it, I’ve had radio silence to any of my inquiries. My loan approval is expiring. So now if/when they finally do get a car I’m going to have to take another hard inquiry hit on my credit.
Order is a blue performance non-upgrade with 20” inductions and FSD.
On the bright side, I still get to enjoy my 2016 S 90D a bit longer.

NY:
I got the standard text saying car will be ready in 3-6 weeks on 8-6-20. This morning I got a text saying the car is ready to be picked up and I need to schedule the pickup by tonight. Apparently the cars can stay on ground for only 3 days, so I have only Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday pick up options only.
So if you get the 3-6 week text it means you are already matched for a car and it is on its way to pick up location. Hope this helps some of you.

Ordered a Y this morning with expected delivery of 3-7 weeks in the Bay Area. Anything I can provide to the common good throughout the order window?

Deliveries seem to be mostly on the east cost at this time. Also it looks like mostly white and red cars are being delivered. I heard that they deliver on the west coast towards the end of the quarter.

I got the "5 to 7 weeks" text yesterday. According to the local sales manager, the factory supposedly switched from export production to domestic within the past week. He was expecting to see increased local delivery volume before the end of the month as a result.
Coincidentally, if anyone is looking for a sleeper (performance model without the performance package upgrade, meaning 19" wheels and regular brakes and suspension), they had one available to buy at Corte Madera yesterday.

That sounds about right. My understanding is they made that setup for only a limited time, a while ago. I have no idea what it looks like.
