Me too.Any tax credit issued by a new administration that applies to Tesla will just be unfair... but I will take it!
My city has a large fraction of the population that lives paycheck to paycheck. That is not unusual, I just mention it to say that my following observations are local --
That large group does not in general buy new cars. Tax credits for new cars are fairly irrelevant where they are concerned. I now see Prius driving around the poorer areas, and it is not because that group are now greenies. It is because the Prius is cheap, gets good fuel economy, and is reliable. Part of what makes it cheap today is that 10 years ago Prius had outsized marketshare due to tax credits and/or deductions.
So while it is not politically correct to support free money to the top 20th percentile, that is where the government can influence car purchasing choices.
