Hi,
I’ve been casually placing the number of documented deliveries over the number of documented orders here on the forum over the last few weeks and have noticed that deliveries for the last few weeks were pretty much at 2% of orders up to a few days ago. Today, it was 3% despite there being more and more orders (ie. deliveries are not only keeping pace, but they’re also beginning to outpace orders). This is not terribly scientific (but it is simple to check the mathematics yourself), so I make no claims. It is simply an observation. This change from 2% to 3% deliveries might be a simple variation due to many inputs. OTOH, the increase in [N% = Deliveries / Orders] will happen at some point, I reckon, until a higher but more static ratio occurs (eventually, over time, the number of deliveries in the numerator should dwarf the number of orders but that’s probably years away). I don’t know what that will be. I guess nobody does. And yes, I’m fully cognizant that this forum does not represent 100% of reservation holders, orders, or deliveries. It might be reasonable to simply normalize that out of the equation and consider this forum a representative sampling of a larger set (which it is). Again, this is not scientific but it is possible we might be seeing the beginning of the ramp _if_ this N% continues to grow beyond 3%. YMMV etc etc. Sort of just posting this for fun so don’t get your blood pressure to a boiling point. Here’s hoping you all get your Cybertrucks soon! Cheers.

Purely based on drone videos, which are limited slices of time a couple days a week, it's clear the ramp is happening.

There are 30-40 units visible in each video now, and they are being loaded on trucks consistently. So, we must assume with a 12 hour shift in a day, the 11 or so hours where a drone pilot is not there, even more trucks are being produced and transported away.

at this point, even the drone pilots are relying on this site's VIN activation tracker for any accurate visibility into Tesla production


watching the outbound lot tells you about what Tesla is shipping, not what they're producing

watching the outbound lot for what Tesla is shipping, in occasional 1hr time slices is that much less informative
