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

How will Tesla Vision deal with weather related camera obstructions like snow, ice, heavy rain and sun glare?
I see the B pillar camera go out all the time with just sun glare.
How do human eyes deal with it? Same answer.
And actually, potentially better- in that "seeing through rain" in real time is a problem machine learning has already made a lot of progress in solving

That's from 5 years ago, such systems are significantly better now and will keep getting better still over time.
On top of that , for forward-looking there's 3 of them instead of your 2, and they can be looking in all directions at the same time as well.
I see the B pillar camera go out all the time with just sun glare.
However, replacing the USS is going to rely more on the forward and rear/wing camera. And the intersection of when those aren't functioning with the times you absolutely need distance warnings has got to be slim.
And the USS were never fool proof. Not only in Teslas, but they often give so many false alarms, people start to ignore the beeps.
