does anybody know how the new potential ev tax credit applies and who/when it applies?

will i miss out by getting my car in december?
No clue. In fact no one knows. Need passed legislature to know.

Maybe.

Best bet is to not rely upon government. In fact, I thought in the bill the House passed the Model S and Tesla was excluded due to non-union workers and vehicle price limits.

Tesla is excluded from 4,500 of the credit due to not being a union. Manchin is fighting that because all EV’s should have the same benefits to the credit.
 
Just got the VIN! MF456. No change to EDD (Nov 19-Dec 3), but feels like I’ll get it the last day.

Took delivery this morning, 8 months to the day from when I ordered. There are some minor fit/finish things I’ll get them to cleanup, but I haven’t seen anything major. The wait is brutal, but the payoff is absolutely worth it - the car is spectacular.

I’m pleasantly surprised by the cream seat color - I had feared, based on Tesla photos, that it’d be more of a darker khaki but its very light. The hub caps on the 19s aren’t awful, but they don’t really live up to the quality of the rest of the car so I took them off and I like the look of a tuning fork spokes under when lug nut covers and a center caps are added. Just a fantastic car.

Where did you get the lug nut covers and center caps?
 
Very kind of you, ... thanks! There are many others in a similar situation. I'm hoping we see some good traction on getting VINs assigned. We all want to start enjoying our new cars, and for some lucky folks, it will be their best holiday gift ever.
You ordered 11 days before I did. My delivery appointment is tomorrow at 10:00am. Feels like Christmas Eve right now....
 
Need to see those pics from the sun!
Here are some. Lmk if you wanna see the car from any angle. I’ll take pics from the back tomorrow - totally forgot today. Also found another flaw with my car. The rear middle seat won’t latch up to become a seat. Guess the latch is broken.

I think more than just the latch on the rear center armrest is broken. It should be horizontal, not tipped down and resting on the seat.

Not sure I follow you.. If I wanna make the center seat an armrest I click the button to unlatch it from the back of the actual bench or whatever and it is tipped down. That is how it is designed to be. However, my problem is that when I try to push the middle seat back up (so it can be used as an actual seat), it goes up but won't latch. That leaves it so if the driver brakes hard, the middle seat will just fly down into the "tipped" position. From what I can understand it looks like just the latch is broken. I could be wrong however.
