Hello, I hope you're well.
Tesla is offering certain customers a $7,500 discount and 10,000 Supercharger credits if they take delivery of a Model 3 or Model Y by 12/31/2022. Check your text message;
here is an example.
Yesterday,
I posted about how the Model 3 RWD and Model Y will qualify for the full Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) $7,500 if you take delivery in January or February 2023 (of course, if Tesla runs promotions or drop prices in early 2023, there could be better savings then). This is better in several major ways:
- Lower sales tax because this is a discount, not a tax credit
- You get the discount immediately, instead of having to wait until 2024 when you file taxes for 2023
- You get 10,000 Supercharger credits, which is valued at between $500 and $900
- If you're financing, you don't have to pay interest on the $7,500
- (For some people) If you didn't qualify for the tax credit due to being over the income limit, you don't have to worry about that at all
- 12/29/2022 UPDATE: IRS published its list [irs.gov], and some vehicles will not qualify for the tax credit that starts in 2023; of note, Model Y 5-Seat does not qualify because it passes the $55,000 limit, whereas the Model Y 7-Seat does qualify because it is below the $80,000 limit.
- 01/04/2022 UPDATE: The 10,000 Supercharger miles (which is actually 4,000 kWH) have been added to the Tesla App. Check Settings > Loot Box.
Author's Note: This is a deal thread, not a political thread or a thread for people who dislike Tesla. Please refrain from going off topic or thumbing down this thread. You have every right to hate Tesla and its CEO, but please don't thumb down a thread related to Tesla simply because of that. Slickdeals is a deal-hunting forum above all else, and I'd greatly appreciate it if we treat threads in Hot Deals as deal threads and nothing else. Thank you.
I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic

I'm as surprised about it as you are. I did read someone else had the same experience
IF YOU TAKE DELIVERY BEFORE DEC 31, 2022
Gonna be very difficult, but maybe someone will take advantage.
Tesla is offering free Supercharging credits* — up to 10,000 miles of driving—for customers who take delivery of a new Tesla vehicle between December 15 and December 31, 2022. Free Supercharging will be credited to your Tesla Account in the month of January 2023 and will remain valid for a period of two years from your delivery date.
*Supercharging credits are tied to your Tesla account and cannot be transferred to another vehicle or person in case of an ownership transfer. Tesla shall not be liable if delivery of your vehicle does not happen before December 31, 2022. Used vehicles and business orders are excluded from this promotion.
And you know, I've got a super-crazy idea--if the car is at the Fremont or TX factory, tell them you'll just fly out to it and take delivery--even if the flight is $1000, you're still ahead in the end.

Car is much roomier than I thought it would be. I had previously thought the interior was lacking but I actually like it. Seems like a top notch car and not too bad for 60k.
Build quality seems to be excellent on mine. Mine is an Austin, Texas build. Reading the forums, it seems Austin might be putting out better build cars versus Fremont factory. You can check your vin number to see where its made. I think PA designates Austin and PF designates Fremont

The reason that Austin builds can be viewed as a 'better build' is literally due a difference manufacturing. Not a QC difference. The Model Y that comes from Austin (which is possibly all?) have a new, single-cast rear sub-frame. So that's certainly a good thing.
i had to pickup my model 3. The rep said i have 7 days to open a service request if i have issues.
Whats next "Clouds were covering the sun, couldnt see paint perfectly, why didnt tesla move the clouds"

Is it reasonable asking if there's a cover spot where I can inspect the car? I was told no. I guess some ass could comment that I should blame or ask Tesla to move the cloud.
