Q4 is the last time you can get tax credit, so if there is enough demand based on that alone, Tesla may not give much at the end of the quarter.
Makes sense. Q1 2020 is when they have to deal with the loss of the credit. Small supercharger credits, etc. are really not much of an incentive. The cars are (and should be) the incentives.
I think we are so used to traditional dealers giving little bits of stuff here and there that we expect Tesla to do it all the time. Late 2020 and 2021 is when the competition will start to roll out and Tesla will have to stop it with the production defects, attitude, etc. and realize that they have to sell cars. Tesla shareholders will have to be a lot more forgiving too. Stocks are best as long term investments (think Amazon) - and "internally" struggling from quarter to quarter is no way to run a car company. I can't imagine the stress of working there. It can't be helpful.
I guess it says it all when some people report their front "Tesla" badge is on crooked. A little thing that says so much! I mean does anyone even take 5 minutes to look at the fit and finish of the car when shipping to a customer?
