If an EV tax credit is a go once again for Tesla’s, hopefully it will make a difference for potential model 3/Y buyers. The government definitely won’t be providing assistance for people to go 0-60 in 2 sec
. It would piss off a lot of avg folks and they’d be right hah
Of course you have always had a June delivery date. You maxed out the option list and moved to the front of the line. You are a Tesla VIP and they are going to give you the Joe Rogan treatment!
Typically, the SA is associated with the delivery location you picked. In dense areas like NorCal and SoCal, there may be a team of SAs that cover a number of locations. My suggestion is to call the store nearest your delivery location and see if they can route you to your SA.
I have to wonder if hanging on to a previously-placed Plaid + (man that's a mouthful!) order insulates you from the inevitable price increases that will come.
Call Jeannine Adams at the Carlsbad delivery center. 858.692.4853
Good point. The $100 is already burned, so there really is no downside to letting it ride.
Maybe those of us with later 2020 and 1/1/21 - 1/2~/21 orders with no delivery estimates will get our cars on 6/3/21
. LR included hmmmmm that would be a nice surprise
Is there a difference in taxes if you purchase FSD prior to delivery or afterwards? I see that if I configure it now as part of the car, then there is a tax on the 10k (i.e. total price of the car increases by around $10,800).
Because people that live paycheck to paycheck actually NEED the incentives in order to consider an EV. People who buy $150K cars will whine about the incentives, but they are going to buy what they want anyhow.The point of the EV incentive is to provide a $ incentive to buy an EV rather than a polluting ICE car. So a $10K incentive that causes someone to buy a base M3 instead of an Accord still costs the Feds $10K, but results in replacing a 30MPG car with an EV. Good.
But the $10K incentive on a $150K car results in replacing a 10MPG car with an EV. Isn't the more value and benefit to the environment for the same cost?
Why continue to encourage high-end high-polluting luxury and super cars when there would be far more bang-for-the-buck to extend the EV incentive to this group?
I emailed my congressman both senators and the president. I suggest others do as well:

Contact the President, Vice President, get help with a Federal Agency, or ask a question about WhiteHouse.gov.www.whitehouse.gov
I don't think there is tax on software purchases after delivery. I just purchased a 2021 Dual Motor Model Y and added the acceleration boost upgrade after purchase for $2,000 and there was no tax charged.
