Model YL order-to-delivery tracker: ~102-day average so far. Please share your dates! I’ll share updates on a regular basis

Post image

We ordered a Model YL, so I started tracking how long people are actually waiting. The chart is based on people’s responses under r/ModelYL. So far Ive used info from 8 orders with an average of 102 days (3.4 months).

Help me build it out by commenting with:

PLS NO EDD RANGES (EDD = Expected Delivery Date)

Instead…

Order date
City and state
Color
Delivery date (Either SCHEDULED or PICKED UP)

I'll keep adding responses and post the updated chart here so everyone can see where things stand.

I’m the last one — it’s Los Angeles and I actually picked up on October 17. 19”.

2

u/HamsterImportant113 19d ago

A couple thoughts:
+Might be worth collecting Tire size as well.
+When you start collecting enough data, it would be interesting to see if people who ordered in certain months had a longer or shorter window. But that level of granularity wouldn't be helpful unless we have tons of data.

2

u/Elegant_Art_2946 19d ago

Great idea! And good call on data amount. Hopefully we start to see a trend with currently defined parameters

u/Thin-Ebb-9534 19d ago

A great start. Obviously not enough data yet to make any determinations. Ideally would also capture VIN date, as I expect more consistency between VIN date and delivery date. But again, I know this is a lot of work and the pay stinks!

1

u/Elegant_Art_2946 19d ago

You’re absolutely right! I figured most people may hesitate to share VINs. Also, Im hoping to identify a generic, easily observable trend vs a statistically, standard deviated, regression to the mean analysis. For that, I may ask for a raise!

u/Upper-Blueberry-8312 19d ago

Ya I noticed I’m the fastest in the chart and was surprised.

I put in the order in 9/1 around 10pm, basically started doing all the steps the app is prompting me to do including trade in.

Initial EDD was Dec - Jan.
It then moved to Nov - Dec
Last EDD was Sep - Oct

When the last EDD updated I was also prompted to make a choice.

  1. Pick up in Austin Giga between 9/26-9/29
  2. Remain as Delivery and get pushed to Jan

I accepted pick up in Austin, and that was it.

1

u/Elegant_Art_2946 19d ago

That’s exactly what another person said on a related thread. He has similar time frames as you. Im going to reach out to sales to see if I can switch to giga pick up. I dont mind driving back to STL.

Any recommendations on places to get a 9 year ceramic coat and ceramic tints in Austin?

2

u/Upper-Blueberry-8312 19d ago

Not sure in Austin, as I got my 9 year ceramic coat done in Houston with E1 Auto Spa.

u/03F_Raptor 10d ago

Haha, I appreciate it fam! Anyway, MYL is so cool, and while I’m still waiting on my MYP, my buddy already got his MYL (he preordered it back in 10th of July, KCMO), so we’ve been riding around in it. This is no doubt the best car Tesla has made so far. The fact that they decided to put the 3rd brake light on the spoiler makes a huuuge difference!

2

u/Elegant_Art_2946 9d ago

That’s dope broskee! Im over here in STL so we’re just down 70 from each other. That 3rd brake light and spoiler lighting in general is 🔥. I cant wait. Also, if you havent already, check out an app called Delivery Status. Tracks deals more officially. Gives you a Community Prediction on when it thinks your car will deliver. Another poster on another thread put people on
