Ok...to be clear...so don't click on the "Proceed with Delivery" and just respond to text and then work with my SA? Thanks again!

Tesla EV Tax Credits coming back?

Yea I might have clicked it the first time I put it on hold but not the second time. I’m not sure it matters.
I was assigned a VIN yesterday. Tried to get ahold of my SA via email but ended up calling into the regional call center and speaking with someone. I was able to unassign my VIN and put my car on hold until January 1st. I really wanted the car but I don't mind waiting a little longer for the opportunity to save $8K and as a bonus get some new features like air suspension, possibly a Giga Texas model.
Air suspenion will not be a thing on the model Y anytime soon, Elon has denied it many times, and if he wasnt willing to do it with normal sales, right now with 6 months wait for a model Y there is no way Tesla is spending the extra cash when they cant make enough cars as it is. Maybe 3 or 4 years down the road on a refresh that might happen but not now.
I have a similar experience - I have heard others that corroborate that if you have been assigned a VIN and then place the order on hold, you get a new VIN fairly quickly once the hold is removed. Seems like the best way to do it without being sent to the back of the line.
Did they ask for a reason? Or you basically said: "I can't take delivery right now, can you put the order on hold till January 1?"
Agreed. Glad I grabbed the Y when it was 49990 back in April. I was worried I'd miss out on possible federal and state rebates that we thought were coming soon. But now I see the cost of the car is catching up pretty quickly with the amount of the rebate.
I just told them that I don't need the car right now and am not ready to take delivery. I said that my employer won't be bringing us back into an office until at least January. That seemed to be fine. I figure if the EV bill doesn't come through, I will take it off of hold otherwise I will just wait and take it off in late December. I am in at $50,990 so the EV credit stacked on that would get me an incredible deal.
Tell me about it, I picked up an inventory SRY as i knew the "off menu" talk was crap, and boy was I right, not only that but the cheapest Y right now is 15k more than I paid.as everyone mentions here it would be nice to get tax credits, but at this point it would be just about the same as if you woud have bought in april. I guess if I was buying now i would wait for the credit as it looks very likely to pass.

Likely to pass in some form? Yes. Likely to cover Teslas is another story…
How long did it take for them to remove VIN from your account?
I received Vin on sunday, called on tuesday to put a hold. Until now its not removed, I still have blue button and MVPA.
Thank you. Sent very similar story via text and he had no problem. I think I am going to give Congress until mid November recess, else just going to complete the order and start enjoying.

As somebody with a Model Y delivery date in January, I'm hoping that the tax credit passes in November but does not take effect until 1/1. I would think Tesla would need to do something to ensure that deliveries don't fall off a cliff in Q4, so maybe they would incentivize people to take delivery by offering free supercharging or significantly discounted FSD.
I'd like to know too. MVPA and VIN are still showing on my account at Tesla's website despite a hold placed eight days ago.
It looks like the Clean Electricity Program might need to be cut from the bill but EV tax credit incentives seem to still be included.
"As a result, White House staffers are scrambling to calculate the impact on emissions from other climate measures in the bill, including tax incentives for renewable energy producers and tax credits for consumers who purchase electric vehicles.

Key to Biden’s Climate Agenda Likely to Be Cut Because of Manchin Opposition (Published 2021)
The West Virginia Democrat told the White House he is firmly against a clean electricity program that is the muscle behind the president’s plan to battle climate change.
While he is against the clean electricity program which directly impacts the coal industry in WV, it seems like EV tax incentives are still included in the bill. No idea if progressives will accept a bill w/o this program though.
