    Future loss of $7500?

    I ordered M3 RWD the other day. Since it's under $42000 I get a NY State price reduction so it equalizes the 2K I had to spend to add white car and interior. Current car is all black and I nearly burnt my hands on the steering wheel even with the windows open. I'm gonna look into that 3rd party...

    The new FSD transfer for 1Q 2024 is a crock of you know what

    Went over to Tesla, tried new model 3, ok, no $7500 but NY State gives 2K rebate. I take the car for a drive. I get back and the woman tells me I can't do the FSD transfer because of the firmware level in the HW3. So basically I thought they erase of old car and load new software. What this...

    Highland Efficiency

    This is good. 5 miles per kwh.......I can get as high as almost 6 miles if I hypermile during temparate weather (50-70 F)

    Would FSD Have Avoided a Head-On?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    It's kind of unfair to ask about the price of goods 43 years ago. When the NYC subway opened it was 5 cents. Now it's 2.90. Since we humans have short memories we only look back 10 years in this case we look back to the pandemic. So inflation went up due to a number of factors, factories closed...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    If anyone on Long Island went to the new Tesla store in Westbury to see the new M3 don't bother. They didn't have one. They'll be getting one soon

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Can you please explain what's been inflated. I bought my first house in the 1980s for16% mortgage.. You could buy CDs paying 10%. And the inflation stayed high into the Reagan administration. I know food is high, but that's due to the greed of the food conglomerates. A 2 liter bottle of soda I...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I listened to the web session live. There was nothing to get excited about. Although I started thinking a while ago. If the stock really tanks won't it be easier for EM to get 25% of the company. Maybe he planned this. Tell me if I'm wrong

    Do the USS sensors still work?

    We had a brief snowfall last week in the NYC metro. A couple of days ago my car was telling me to STOP when I in my driveway . As I drove it was telling me to stop and various times. I then got a message saying Park Assist won't work because sensors blocked. I windexed my sensors and the...

    Is my beloved 2018 LR Model 3 turning into a maintenance $$$$ nightmare?

    That's why I called these guys when my 2019 warranty expired XCare EV Protection. Every person on this website says "what's" my chance of needing a repair. Well you are the answer. Tesla doe NOT make little replacement parts, They make whole assemblys that need repair.

    Discussion: Model 3 Price reductions - Jan / April / Oct 2023 and all other pricing discussions

    Sorry, don't get any of this.The 2 model 3s have had the same price for several months. And I don't want supercharging or connectivity. Supercharging is overpriced and connectivity is $120.. They should get their sh*t together and start getting battery materials NOT from China

    Discussion: Model 3 Price reductions - Jan / April / Oct 2023 and all other pricing discussions

    Since GM is lowering the price on those cars that lost the tax credit, I think Tesla should do the same. Anyone agree? Unless he pulls some rabbit out of his hat with new model 3

    Discussion : All discussion regarding Model 3 and Tax credit in model 3 subforum

    The line I'm talking about is where they ask you what is greater - what we owe you or what you owe. On the other hand I haven't seen the 2023 tax form yet. Have you?

    Discussion : All discussion regarding Model 3 and Tax credit in model 3 subforum

    I I asked the guy flat out. If you don't owe ANY tax after all is said and done on your 1040 you get ZERO. You must OWE tax. For 2024 it has nothing to do with tax. It's an instant price discount

    Discussion : All discussion regarding Model 3 and Tax credit in model 3 subforum

    I had an interesting visit to the Tesla store in Manhassett, NY. If you go to the tesla website and order a model 3 say on January 1 and I get it in January will it still be the same configuration as today. He said yes. But I won't get the $7500. I said why. He said the IRS yada yada yada. AND I...

    Enhanced autopilot UK - Traffic lights?

    This is the way it works. It stops at a red. Dings when green but you have to engage. With flowing traffic you have to yank the stalk down once even if light is green but ONLY if it can't see a car moving in front of it. No car in front to see then you have to keep cranking (or wanking ;)) Stop...

    Trade In Question

    I'm just wondering if NYS starting in 2024 (the tax credit comes off the sale price) if the credit brings a car down below $42K NYS gives instant 2K credit, which doesn't affect you.

    Trade In Question

    So which car are you looking out and color/interior. And did you actually call or email someone? For 2024 the credit is applied at purchase time so Im wondering if a car is a little over $42K does the 3750/7500 make the car come in at the $42K limit. While I'm not totally sold on the Highland...

    Teslas being used as the battery storage ???

    It WILL happen. During my last 10 day hurricane power outage due to the awfull PSEGLI I found an article on Google where they show you how to hook up a Prius to the house (which I had). Downside is you have to keep the car running. Also look at Ford F150 and Hyundai Ioniq 5 and 6.

    Distance detection issue

    Since they removed USS the distance is unreliable. Even weirder, when I pull out of my driveway nose first it shows I have 30 inches free in front of me. But there's nothing in front of me but the street. Teslavision is awful

    Has anyone in this group from Europe verified if their Highland has HW4

    Excellent, now what about nose camera and higher pixel rate than current?
  26. M

    Tesla sales rep told me things about tax credit, and M3 Highland I don’t believe.

    My opinion is it will shrink to $3750 because they will not be using enough home grown lithium. It will not disappear. The guy is just trying to make Q4 look good. There's also an outside chance the ranges will be higher. What I am concerned about is it HW3 or 4? I posed a question on this site...

    Does everyone use Time of Use Electricity rates?

    PSEG Long Island is about 26 cents all day. The TOU plans jump to high 40 cent range from 3-7 or 4-9pm. I plan to stay on flat rate

    Has anyone in this group from Europe verified if their Highland has HW4

    I'm wondering if the holdup on the new car in N America is maybe they're going to modify it before it gets here. But then again..............

    Trade In Question

    I will attempt to clarify but unless their lawyers missed something they make no mention of tradeins. Maybe Illinois is weird that way. Do you even have a state rebate?

    Yeah, it's aggravating watching all these videos fawning over it but then never talk about the ADAS

    Trade In Question

    Starting in January the credit changes. The dealer takes it off the list price. I emailed NYS (Har-maybe I should call) and asked would MSRP be AFTER tax credit deducted for new effective UNDER 42K limit?
  34. M

    Trade In Question

    Not moot. If your new car is less than 42K you get $2000 off at time of sale

    Tesla braked hard when car crossed in front

    It did it to me the other day and I was not using ANY automated driving. Actually that's the first time it happened, car was about 10 feet in front of me and I was using single pedal driving to have car come to a stop. This has NEVER happened and I wasn't even sure AEB even worked. It certainly...

    Trade In Question

    When I traded my 2017 Prius in for 2019 Model 3 I got $2000 off the list price, NOT a tax credit. Has something changed?

    Trade In Question

    Consider this. Take Tesla's trade in value and subtract it from new car price and see what the tax is. Now sell your car to Toyota buy the Tesla. Is the tax lesser than if you sold it to Toyota or not. If not trade in to Tesla

    Tesla sales rep told me things about tax credit, and M3 Highland I don’t believe.

    BTW the sales rep is full of sh*t. Go here https://www.tesla.com/model3/design#overview WHY would they say credit would be halved if there were NOT new models. Oh and if they're NOT a dealer then they can reduce the MSRP price accordingly Did a Google search. Here is what I got Tesla...

    Tesla sales rep told me things about tax credit, and M3 Highland I don’t believe.

    This is a load of crap. The tax credit which on 01.01.2024 will be MSRP discount. The warning sign Tesla shows the batteries would indicate not made in USA so credit will be $3750. One thing that REALLY torques me, I read an article of 24 differences and not only did they remove 1 camera up...

    Does everyone use Time of Use Electricity rates?

    I am not opting into TOU. My normal rate is 26 cents/kwh. Prime time is 4-7 and is an outrageous 48 cents. We do most of our cooking and watch TV so off peak same me nothing. Instead I bought a bunch of the wireless things that you can control from your phone when to switch on/off. I hook up...
