"We are in a fluid situation..." an update from Tesla

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Monday began with a call from the Tesla team asking if I wanted to take delivery during March. (YP Red/White, placed in early September). I replied "YES!". The next step was to be a VIN and a call from the local delivery team.

With all the news about Fremont possibly being forced to close today, I called the local Tesla store for an update. They verified it was scheduled to be delivered in March, but at this point, "We are in a fluid situation" and had no new information. So, if you were waiting for a March delivery, the dates may shift a bit. Separately, this also puts stress on their first-quarter numbers. Let's hope for the best during this crazy global situation.
 
Apparently the plant is continuing to operate with about 25% of the usual workforce. We all want our cars of course, and yes Tesla will be hurt financially as output will slow, but what's more important, cars and profits, or slowing the virus?
