I suspect they turn over the inventory cars every 3-4 months to make sure the demos have the latest options.

If I ever see a government rebate in Alberta I'll have a heart attack. I'm more likely to see a government surcharge for electric!
Don't worry, I pay higher income tax in Alberta to make up for it, and higher electric rates too.
For fear of taking this thread off topic... Income tax is flat rate in Alberta, not progressive like most every other jurisdiction. The end result is that the bottom and middle classes actually pay slightly more income tax, however the upper class pays significantly less. (I'm below the cutoff where I would save money on this tax regimen) As for electricity, we have a deregulated market, it was supposed to result in cost savings, but instead we pay among the highest electric rates in north america. Our cost per Kwh listed on our bills is actually relatively low (8c/kwh) however it's really a lie because that makes up only a tiny portion of our actual bill, the rest is administration charges, distribution charges, rate riders, network access fees, etc, etc, etc. some of which are fixed monthly, and some of which fluctuate with usage. the incremental cost of each kwh for me is actually about 15c and there's a base cost that doesn't fluctuate as well. (I can't remember off the top of my head, but I think it was about $50-75/mo)That surprises me on both accounts
That's the UPside!I thought the only downside was that you had to live in Alberta.
That's the UPside!
In all seriousness, I love BC, I visit there often, and it's the only other place in Canada I would consider living... That said, I still prefer Alberta

I was afraid of that, Kijiji is a real pain to use when trying to search nationally, it's geared towards local search (which makes sense because I'm not driving across Canada to pick up a cheap rocking chair, but I do wish I could pick multiple jurisdictions at a time.)I've seen the occasional Tesla posted on Kijiji, chances are they are also posted on Auto Trader, but it doesn't hurt to watch both.

I do plan to talk to the stores, Vancouver being my preference, however I may need to talk to Toronto/Montreal as well if they don't share inventory lists, there are simply too few Teslas in Canada to limit oneself East vs West.
200km is useless, that doesn't reach the next major city from my location, and doesn't get even 1/4 of the way to the closest city with a large Tesla population. I need about 800-900km to reach vancouver, and probably 5000km to reach Toronto.Just drag the slider that says km from your location on kijiji... I frequently drag it up to 200km from my location, I think it will go as high as you want.
I agree most of the Autotrader ads are insanely over priced, I've done comparisons before in other threads where I broke down the cost of the used cars vs new cars spec'd identically, often the used cars are more expensive than brand new. However there's often 1 or 2 cars on there (out of 15-20) that have prices in a more reasonable range.i looked on Auto trader as well as Tesla Yorkdale for several months before I gave up & bought new. I thought the car being discussed was almost @ years old and good value because of the low KMs but reflects market value. I find 99% of the ads on Autotrader are overpriced therefore they sit for sale forever. Lot of wishful thinking going on.

I do that, but it's still a whole lot of searches (and Ontario is two provinces for some reason...)You can search Kijiji at a provincial level by not selecting a region or city.
Indeed. Prices have barely budged since the 70D announcement; they deserve a correction.I find 99% of the ads on Autotrader are overpriced therefore they sit for sale forever. Lot of wishful thinking going on.
