EDD updated yesterday to 12/1-12/14, plus I got a text asking about my trade in, which I don’t have… not sure why they asked, I never got a reply.

I am taking the hit. Mine is scheduled for delivery last week in November/first week of December. Thought about putting a hold on it but it's a Christmas present for my wife. I also figure that we could sell it or trade it in next year on another if we wanted to take advantage of the proposed tax credit at some point. I am not a rich man by any means so buying my wife a car for Christmas is a big deal for me. You only live once and I am not going to ruin it.

Agreed, would have done the same if I were you. My case is different since the car is for me and my current car is in good shape, so I can wait until mid-2022 for delivery.
Dude, buying your wife a Tesla for Christmas is so worth the sweet photos/videos you'll get out of it. Way better than the picture of the Tesla you're planning to give her after the BBB bill passes.
BTW, got a good tip from someone regarding financing. Long story short, submitted my loan application to Tesla last night after hours and it was still pending with no credit pull as of 10am.
I was told by a like minded Tesla fan to email [email protected] to see what was up. Within 5 minutes I saw a credit pull and had a 2.49% offer a minute after that.

Haha same .. between winter tires, and the tesla wall charger, electrician to run a new circuit to my garage and do the install, I’m in 5 grand on a car I don’t even have yet
Not to mention PPF and tinting that I have appointments for soon as the car delivers

Posted this already in a different thread but for those who are in this waiting room and also have one eye on the potential EV tax credit:
Some more movement tonight:
The House rules committee is set to meet at 5:30pm local time on the Build Back Better Act, now that the Congressional Budget Office has come back with all the final estimates on the bill. From there, the House of Representatives is expected to vote on the package.

It might happen tonight. But keep in mind that once this passes the House it will go to the Senate where it will most likely go through a pretty long review and then send back to the House for a final vote. So we have a long way to go.

Omg I was hoping for an answer by thanksgiving. I will probably wait until first week of December. If anything I’ll sell and purchase again in January
I don't get this when I see people post it, you really are going to buy now and then sell/purchase again? No way your not taking a loss on that?

Agreed. Seems like a LOT of hassle to save just a bit of money. (The difference in the two cars not the possible 8.5k) Not to mention possibly having a new credit check and/or loan account on your record. Zero plans to take delivery and sell but I am having a hard time debating to take delivery when it’s available or push it into the new year and go through that extra credit check I mentioned.
Yea, that is why I didn't complete the finance option portion as I didn't want a credit pull until we were closer to delivery, I am riding it out to see if the car really is going to show up next month or not before I try to decline/hold the car for the new year. Current EDD is still 12/19 - 12/31 I sold my GX460 to Carvana this week and we are down to a single vehicle but there is no rush on our side, we can get by with a single car for as long as we need to.

My situation is different from others. I have already got approved. It’s good for 60 days which is Jan 8th I just purchased a model Y and took delivery Nov 6th.
So I think I got approved because the credit loan isn’t showing up on my credit yet. It’s with the same bank so who knows. And the only reason I applied for credit is because I purchased a car that was in existing inventory.
Where are you picking up from? I chose Vancouver location...Same . Probably next year. Let's hope to get ours ASAP!
My parents have a Honda Clarity (dad has range anxiety), so I bought them a Level 2 ChargePoint Home flex charger. I will also tint, but not sure about PPF yet... need to recoup some $$$ before spending moreHaha same .. between winter tires, and the tesla wall charger, electrician to run a new circuit to my garage and do the install, I’m in 5 grand on a car I don’t even have yet
