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

    The aim is to gain half "compounded" over a multi-year time horizon. 1.8 million production is on pace for continued 50%+ growth based on compound annual growth rate (CAGR). If you gain only 35% for 3 consecutive years, that is a compounded annually rate of 49%. Some "dim" analysts call it a...

    List of Model Y configs that qualify for the 2023 Federal Tax Credit

    Via Upgrades in the menu on rhe Too bad nobody can get red/white seats and still qualify. But, blue/white seats would also be cool and qualify.

    Free Supercharging and Discounts

    I took delivery of my MYLR today (Dec 22) and was informed I get the $7500 discount. I had a cashier's check for the previous amount, so they will be refunding me the difference. It was a good day. ⚡

    That last word, "leverage" is a no-go. Many people just got margin-squeezed out.

    The purpose was to encourage more domestic sourcing. Not just to reward what has already been done.

    Free Supercharging and Discounts

    For me, the $3750 is worth $3900 because of reduced sales tax. And it's immediate, not having to wait (15 months) until spring of 2024 to receive it. Also, at today's typical Supercharger prices, the free 10,000 miles is a savings of about $1000. So, I'm taking the $4900 worth of December...

    I assume the person contacting you about your VIN is your SA, and you can reply to them with any questions.

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    The thing is, the cap is based on the MSRP as configured. Not starting price.

    Is Driving on the beach harmful to the undercarriage?

    I made it to the point on the Virginia side once, and had to hurry back to keep from getting cut off by the incoming tide.

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    I think it's more likely that they'll provide a grace period for those EVs made outside the U.S.

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    They already did this as of Aug 16 when it was signed. It immediately disqualified 70% of the EV models sold in the U.S. Those would've otherwise continued to qualify for the $7500 tax credit.

    Is Driving on the beach harmful to the undercarriage?

    Wider tires, all else being equal, would be better on the sand for the same reason as the larger contact patch at lower air pressures is better.

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    In addition to what singlestack said, it's the time value of money. You get $3,750 now or you wait until April, 2024 to receive whatever tax credit you turn out to be eligible for.

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    How did you receive your VIN? I would think your SA would've texted you the VIN (in addition to it showing up in your app).

    Tesla gives $3,750 discount for Model 3/Y in the US this month

    Seems like they'd rather cut the check than lose a December delivery. I'm planning to wait for the final price sheet (including referral credit adjustment) until shortly before delivery, and then pay in full when I pick up the car.

    ‘23 tax credit, will Tesla offer discounts in ‘22?

    Some seem to think this is only on inventory cars. Hope not.

    ‘23 tax credit, will Tesla offer discounts in ‘22?

    But, the $3,750 discount is immediate, while the tax credit wouldn't be received until Mar/Apr 2024.

    Comfort Suspension

    I'm sure those would improve the ride slightly. But, I'd feel better about tire wear at the recommended pressure. Downsizing the wheel with a taller sidewall is something I'd wonder if that is a size that's selectable in Tesla's settings so it can correctly calculate range and efficiency.

    I think that's only been confirmed in China so far.

    How different is the new Comfort Suspension (October 22 -) to the previous gen (prior to Oct 22 change)?

    Very encouraging. If it improves the MYP that much, I'm curious about it's affect on the MYLR.

    Model Y comfort suspension?

    I hope it's just an issue they can fix, and not "as designed."

    Model Y has anyone received 2023 VIN yet?

    Thanks! I did that yesterday, and the hold is until 11/25, so I hope this improves my chances of getting the comfort suspension.🤞

    The switchover date for MYLR was Oct 7. Oct 17 was when Elon made the tweet about it.

    Model Y comfort suspension?

    I've heard some here with VINs as early as 570 think they have the comfort suspension. I also suspect that all 2023 MYLRs are getting it. My VIN is 564 and it's 2022, so I don't know if mine will have the new suspension.🤞

    Model Y has anyone received 2023 VIN yet?

    MYLR Red/White, OD 9/21, Rec'd VIN on 10/20. NF564XXX. Is it usual to receive a VIN for a 2022 as late as 10/20? And no delivery notice yet (21 days)? Is it likely to have the comfort suspension?

    new comfort suspension switch over dates

    Do you mind providing the 1st 3 of your last 6 in the VIN? Also, 19 or 20 inch wheels? My VIN is ...1NF564*** with 19 inch wheels and I'm wondering if it has the comfort suspension. It hasn't been delivered yet.
