I completed the profile right after my order; i.e., entered registrant info and payment method. I did not call in for the hold but had an online chat with Tesla. They got my contact number but did not call me back, instead they put the hold as of this morning
I placed my order 6/1, but just completed my profile today. Won't take delivery until after 1/1/22. Let's see how that all works out.
Ya, I was thinking I’ll wait to see if the Bill gets passed tomorrow (or this week) or not. If it doesn’t pass or go to vote, I’ll probably take delivery.
I believe there is language in the bill that the car needs to be manufactured before 1/1/22. Just a heads up. Someone correct me if I'm wrong
I believe it’s only stating as has to be purchased after 12/31/21.
The current status is that the House version of the bill states that it will be applied to vehicles purchased after December 31. The Senate version is retroactive to vehicles purchased after May 24, 2021, but it looks like the administration is leaning toward the House version. We might know more either tomorrow or later this week.
I got a bunch of emails in the first 2-4-6 weeks, after that the emails pretty much stopped. I also got a call within a day or two of placing the order from the SA saying I should complete my profile asap so I can get the car asap, I told her I was in no hurry as I wanted to see what would happen with the tax bill, she said ok so no car for you this quarter and I've not heard from her since. I completed my profile today because I'll take the car any time after 1/1/22, the bill will either be signed by then (I expect by thanksgiving) or it will have failed completely. If Tesla tries to get me to take a car before the end of the year, which I think is unlikely, I'll ask to hold until January and then take delivery whenever they give it to me then. The MYLR I ordered 6/1 is up $5k in current pricing, so there's also that.
The screenshot I posted is from the current legislation though. I'm sure you're fine but if you take delivery in the first week of the year then it may be excluded from the credit, as it stands now
I am not sure if we are interpreting that language correctly. If it would apply only to cars manufactured before 1/1/2022 that would be a huge limitation and only a very limited number of vehicles would qualify. It will most likely apply based on purchase date, but before the final bill passes we won't know. In my case, since I am in a position where I can wait with my current car, I decided to take the delivery after 1/1/2022.
Apologies, I meant to say the car needs to be manufactured after 12/31/21. So if you take delivery in the 1st for example, the car might be excluded from the credit because it was manufactured in 2021.
I really can afford to buy the MY no matter what happen with the EV Tax credit. If passes or not I will still buy it... but if the EV Tax credit is available to everyone, why shouldn't get it ???
If it works like last time, not everyone was eligible. You have to have 7500 (or whatever the credit is) in tax liability.
Fair point but there are a lot of folks now who have locked in at the price from in or around June/July. That price and tax incentives is awful attractive.
