@@TheChadAbides O course, no other manufacturer anywhere has cars in stock before delivery. Troll.

They're selling all they can make. They'll do fine without your order.

They are not suffering from lack of sales. They make cars in batches of similar color, interior, etc. It is likely they have a batch equipped to your spec ready, thus you got the nod. As the other poster implied, you are not punishing them by withdrawing your order. A pyrrhic victory for you alas.

@The_DuMont_Network I never said I was punishing anyone did I? Your insinuating some nonsense.

@@The_DuMont_Network I never insinuated I was punishing anyone, where do you get that idea from? I just said Its to expensive for me. I have two paid for trucks that suit my needs and a paid for Model 3 so there is zero need to drop $80k on a CT.

It doesn't. This is the RCR Logistics Park in Taylor, TX. A few miles North of The Gigafactory. Even though the water tower says Hutto, it is all in Taylor, as is the new Samsung Chip Fab under construction a little bit to the East. HUGE facility goimg in there, and a tremendous boost to a formerly moribund little city.

The fact that the railyard and Giga Texas have lots of exposed dirt is why they're dusty, not because of the list price. 🙄

Commodities get dusty in transport. Vehicles are detailed before delivery to the customer. Tesla isn't the first brand to ship a car. Years ago vehicles were shipped on open flatbed trailers and railcars. Autoracks were not originally totally enclosed. Chevy once shipped a model vertically, sans some fluids, standing on its rear. That didn't last long.

The loading area for the Portable Parking Lots is more than double the size of the original The new site frees up a lot of space in the assembly plant. If they ever get the tunnel finished, it should boost the throughput somewhat.

@rtz549 That's not unusual.Been a practice for many years.

4:48. Good spot. Extra heavy duty low-loader on standby. First class bragging rights for you if it shows up at GT!

I would think they would be from a manufacturer with a plant in the area. IIRC Toyota is in San Antonio but am not aware of Nissan or VW or anyone else in Texas save GM in Arlington?

They would be coming from the same factory, so someone making both sedans and compact SUVs. I see door handles, so I don't think that's an Equinox EV.

I think they're ICE vehicles. It looks like you can see the door handles. The equinox EV has the Tesla type handles. Also, if they are Chevy(GM) cars what is the sedan? Malibu?

Because Tesla is shipping lots of vehicles? Was your comment meant to be sarcastic? Because otherwise it makes no sense.

Tesla sold 1.8 million EVs in 2023. That's more EVs than Ford sold in trucks.

I just got the email yesterday that my preorder is ready!!!

I believe the rock from under which you crawled is ready for you to return. If you are so Anti Tesla, why are you here? Hmmm?

​@@trigger2142Mazel Tov! The hours will creep by until you get behind the wheel. We've all been through it. Time seems to stand still.

No. No new car or truck models are expected from Tesla for a few more years; there are only tweaks being made to the Model Y, coming in early to mid-2025.

Not necessarily. Train consists draw cars from a national pool. You see mixes cars of all roads and other ownership all over.

Big question is whether that many are there just because they can’t load the trains fast enough, or if some of them are unsold inventory.

@@Frank-gt7me There are a number of reasons for storage surges. Shipping logistics are quite complicated.

"Extended row" WHAT, exactly? If you're talking about a third row in a Model Y, that wouldn't change the outward appearance of the vehicle. There is no 'new' Model Y either, or we'd see one coming out of the Giga Texas factory already with great fanfare, or coming from Freemont, and not going OUT on a train from this railyard.

Tesladoes NOT have the excusive use of the RCR Logistics loading facility. It is NOT owned by Tesla. While the practice of mixing brands in Autoracks is uncommon, it is not unheard of. The railroad is a common carrier.

Those arent people...😮

It’s complex. Try writing step by step detailed instructions for how each car would do this .

driven by robots

@@jamskinner waymo and FSD literally do that everyday. They just did it at the robotaxi event. I get driving it into the train but out of the factory and into a parking spot should be beyond easy for them. I run a robotics team and we can do it so tesla certainly can do the same.

FSD isn't fully autonomous yet, so there would still be a need for a human being to be in the driver's seat, even if he/she did nothing. Same goes for any other vehicle manufacturer or company working on autonomous driving systems for cars. Each unmanned individual vehicle would need to be issued a permit by some governmental entity to drive on the road. The robotaxi event was held on a Hollywood backlot, a closed and controlled environment, and not in a real cityscape. By asking, you seem not to know any of this. If you run a robotics team, then why aren't your robots just set loose upon the world? If you are being truthful about it, then you should know the answer to your own question, and if not, then folks should be concerned about the work YOU are doing.

2:40 those are Both Nissans one new kicks and a Sentra or Altima I really can’t tell but I know the Altima comes with a painted black roof with some colors so I’m going with that

It was shown months ago that a japjob brand was also using the facility, ISTR Toyota, but perhaps not. Tesla does not own the facility, it is part of the RCR Taylor Logistics Paek. I do find it unusual to see brands mixed, but likely the string is going to similar facility where vehicles will be sorted.

I'm not exactly sure- I could only guess they might be for last minute testing/detailing.

Likely security, protection against the elements, or hiding "new" models from prying eyes. My Model 3s can get over 140 degrees inside on Summer days. Yes, we see there area lot of cars in the open, perhaps some are known to be scheduled to sit longer before shipment. I don't see power or infrastructure supporting workers, thus I doubt there is any work performed inside. We are not even sure they are Tesla related.

No. Tesla is not shipping any vehicles other than what they actually make: The Model Y and Cybertrucks are the only things it makes at Giga Texas. The other vehicles they produce (Model S, Model X, and Model 3) are made in California, while the Semi is made in Nevada. There simply is no hatchback version of the Model 3 and there is no "Model 2."

Seriously....looks like a Mini Cooper a bit? But what the heck is it doing there...

@@GOVAUS1 could be a dealer transfer

​@@trails3597Not all Autoracks are exclusively booked. A broker supplies them for transpot on a common carrier. Mixing of brands is uncommon but not forbidden. They are destined for a similar facility for sorting and forwarding. Fir example, my Model 3s were trucked from Fremont to a railhead, then via train to West Memphis, then trucked to Dallas. There are other brands sorted in that yard.

I was wondering myself. Searched for new styles, found the "Model Y Juniper", but none really resembled it. At least from an aerial perspective.

On one of Joe T’s first railyard flights there were rows of non-Tesla cars on the south end of the lot (near where the big tents are now). He said then that another manufacturer was using the railyard to unload their cars from the trains and then reload them on trucks to take to local dealers. Since then, I thought Tesla became the exclusive user of the area, but perhaps I was mistaken on that.

​@@AirwaveDynamics The Model Y "Juniper" doesn't exist yet, except maybe in prototype form, and those would be shipping out of the Freemont California plant accompanied by significant fanfare by Tesla watchers. Given the changes seen on the Model 3 earlier this year, it's likely the most notable changes to the model Y would be subtle ones in the front end and taillights, so they wouldn't look remarably different than the current Model Y, especially when viewed from above.

​@@alanrivaldo-hTesla ships prototypes and other "secret" work by covered trailer for obvious reasons. Fremont MAY be the origin of the refreshed and new models, I believe the design facility is still in The People's State of California. I believe the CT prototypes were buikt in Texas, tho.

@Frank-gt7me Indeed. This is not for Tesla's private use, nor is it owned by Tesla.

old dudes who are about to retire. They left their homes for kids and bought one of these condos for retirement. There are several white folks doing that in San Francisco.
