If it works like last time, not everyone was eligible. You have to have 7500 (or whatever the credit is) in tax liability.
Tesla has been raising prices on their cars over the past year or so, IMO, in anticipation of the tax credit. So even if you get the credit, you'll pay what you did a year ago for a new car. Tesla effectively gets the credit.
This is NOT true at all. You don't have to have $7500 in liability to take advantage of the credit. It can be added to your refund as well.
Also, judging from the language they have stated, the $8k now can also be used during point-of-sale basically making at a down payment.
I'm in no rush so I'm willing to wait till next year to see where the credit goes as well as where Tesla will be with the 4680 batteries.
