I happen to have a modicum of sense, and realize Tesla has some serious management problems, but why is ordering machinery before having a location finalized nonsensical? It's not like this stuff is in transit or they need to buy any land.

Exactly... it would be crazy if they were ordering them without knowing if it was in the US or China, perhaps.

But choosing between two existing US plants that are a <250 miles apart? That might be strange, but it isn't nonsensical.
