I'd love it if they did that, and I'd take the $3K discount instead of waiting in a heartbeat. However, whether the credit even makes it into the final bill seems increasingly up in the air. Imagine holding back your order several months to wait for the tax credit just for it to be dropped from the legislation. Damn, that would suck...
The credit will likely make the bill, but first it has to be passed and right now there’s a standoff among the democrats between the progressive and moderate senators… so everything is tabled at the moment. The proggs are demanding the infrastructure bill be voted on in tandem with the budget reconciliation (which contains the ev credits and is the smaller total spending amount of the two, thus the easiest to pass on its own). I don’t see the ev credits going away unless they negotiate it out alongside trimming the infrastructure bill, but there are things like child tax credits that may go first.
Good call, I had to look back but it is 800k combined, 600k as head of household and 400k for individuals. I guess I didn’t retain it all, haha. Either way my sentiment is the same, those are not the price conscious shoppers we need to incentivize… maybe phase out at 200k ind, 300k HoH and 400k comb? Just spitballing here, I’m not sure it’ll change and agree with a previous poster that it’ll probably pass before Thanksgiving as is.
Exact same EDD but originally started as 10/3-11/2.
MY LR that is. My EDD disappeared around a week and a half ago as well. SA said they don’t know. And I literally live across the Fremont plant. And see brand new MY LRs going “out” on trucks every day! Also, took a test drive last week and def. cemented my decision. Great crossover even though the brand new test drive car did have a glaring build quality issue with the passenger seat plastic base (at the bottom with the seat controls) coming off the seat! Easy fix I assume. Still though, <xing fingers> for a better EDD!
Build quality and shell material is of poor quality. Many people who pay $70K for a Tesla expect a Lexus or Audi quality and luxury. The money you pay goes for the battery and technology. Due to lack of competition, there is no incentive for Tesla to focus on quality. In 4 years time when the market grows, one can expect Tesla to protect market share by improving quality.
FSD should be able to remove with without changing your date, I’d recommend waiting to see the final language of the bill before changing though just to be safe. Putting the order on hold is easy, call customer support or your SA and they can do it… I’d recommend waiting until you have a VIN to do so though as it seems to give you priority to have had it, it seems like people get assigned a new VIN faster post-hold when they already had one. The rebate will likely be at point of sale and $8k, but of course all is possibly going to change here as they find a legislative balance between the progressive and conservative wings of the Democratic Party in the senate.
