Sure, if you have $48,000 in cash laying around and can buy next week. I personally would go with the bolt. It's almost $20k cheaper and pretty much the same car.
Lmao at bolt being even remotely close to the same league as a tesla. Good joke, man,

Does anyone know how the child tax credit factors with this EV credit? Does the EV Credit get deducted last? First? I make a bit above the threshold to have the $7,500 tax liability but I would also qualify for the child tax credit.

I thought I was the only one who thought of this. If people follow the "rules" on how much they should spend on a car based on their income, most people wouldn't qualify for the tax credit.

Do you realize that after fed tax credit & state incentives a model3 would be as low as 31k. Seems pretty reasonable?!? For the safest vehicle on road🥹

Who finances cars? That is the biggest rip off. Save and buy instead of whining.

battery tech is still lacking, they're heavy, expensive, and don't have a large charge as I would like (this applies to everything, phones, laptops etc).

but it's not in its infancy, the car itself is quite advanced on an advanced platform. The battery tech is on the lower side across the board but still better than lead acid…
the car holds value really well too, you're both right it's just a difference in perspective. We don't all have "time" to wait for better battery tech

How ironic that you say the car holds value when this is literally the fifth price cut since January.

I don't get the hate that Tesla's get with regards to looks. I feel it is the best looking EV or at least right up there. If you are going to go for most efficient vehicle, the car bodies will all end up looking similar to each other. I do understand though if some people do not like the look of the interior.

I bought a Tesla and most Tesla buyers don't tell the truth about EVs. YouTubers say only good things about them and they don't tell the truth.EVs are really fun to drive and faster than any other vehicle I drove. Technology is good too. But, 1. Phantom drain 1-5% battery drain per day just like any smartphone. You don't lose gas when an ice vehicle is parked. This is really bad when you forget to charge and you park your car at the airport or family or friend's home, where every mile counts. If you use sentry mode, you can lose 10+% per day. 2. Glass top really gets hot and you need to have the AC running while the EV is parked, which uses the battery a lot. 3. In the winter, the battery loses the range a lot. 4. You will have the charger connected all the time because of 1 2 and 3. Once you buy an EV, you will know. So, is it really saving money when it's plugged in all the time? And super charger is expensive.. same price as gasoline. 5. When you travel with an EV, expect to add at least 1 hr time to 3-4 hr trip for charging and getting to the charger. If you really want an EV, buy also an ICE vehicle.
I have a Chevy Bolt EUV, so maybe mine is different. Yes, best car I've ever had, and I've had 20+ ICE cars in my life. Some were fairly nice and well over my EUV's ($34K/loaded Premier) price point.

I don't notice any inherent battery drain. Unless you live in an area where it is super hot (>90F) or very cold (<10F) and maybe the battery is managing its temperature, there shouldn't be any either. Small interior lights etc. (when car is off) run from the 12V accessory battery, just like an ICE car.

I have an actual openable moonroof in my EUV with a retractable shade, but yes the fixed roof with no shade sounds stupid in very hot sun, but I've heard you can ceramic tint that glass to block much of that.

Yes, when it is below freezing you will lose between 15-30% depending on how cold it is. I live in NH, lowest my range gets is around 190 miles. And that is when it has been hovering around 5-10F.

Having said that, I will usually charge a few times a week, mostly the days I have driven 100+ miles for work. It is not difficult. This car replaced my last ICE vehicle I thought I needed to keep around for longer range trips. I didn't. The average person drives 40 miles a day; a 200+ mile EV should be more than enough for most.

But, I don't road trip and I charge at home in my garage. They make planes to fly long distances (if you're in a hurry) and I installed solar panels (in my field) to further bring down my costs. You can't make your own gasoline in your yard, unless maybe you're in Texas living on an oil field…Having said that, charging an EV (especially at home) is a lot cheaper than gas, even without solar. And electric rates are much more stable.

EV destroys ICE all day. But I wouldn't buy a Tesla.
