The only realistic solution for no one to be upset that the price was going down would have been to notify all customers as soon as they knew they were going to lower prices to come in below the IRA limits. In other words, completely stop selling cars for a while.It's understandable how Tesla can be such a famously customer hostile company when their customers just bend over and defend them no matter what. You guys really are amazing . Tesla is worth hundreds of billions of dollars, but you are contorting yourselves every which way just to rationalize a shitty decision on their part. Even resorting to namecalling. This is what the greater world means when they say "Tesla Stans" or fanboys. It's such a sad look.
Serious question....assuming they knew 2-3 months ago that they were going to lower prices below $55k, should Tesla have put out a statement saying "Do not buy a car from us now. Wait until the middle of January when we will lower prices and you may get a tax credit."
I mean, we are all reasonably intelligent humans with brains......do you really expect a company to not sell any cars for months because a decision to reduce prices is likely in the future due to new legislation? Or should they have lowered prices AND handed you another $7500 on top of it to give you the tax credit in advance? Seriously people.
My previous post was a bit sarcastic obviously, but there is no realistic way for this to have made everyone happy IMO. I mean, I got $8,000 off and free supercharging, so basically the same price being offered now, but no tax credit. I'm not happy about it, but I know there isn't an easy solution.
