Duck duck go, waze, countless email options. Pretty easy to imagine life without Google.


If apple employees were caught sharing my nudies I'd sue just like Tesla is going to get sued.

Seems like you missed the point of my post
Sorry, wasn't really commenting on your post, just commenting on lumping Google in with the others. My bad.

Also, yes there are alternatives but my point was the massive amount of effort and money it costs to bring, by orders of magnitude, better and more popular products than those you mentioned and the only exchange is your data (not a product purchase).

I don't think we actually disagree on anything, other than Waze being a competitor because Google acquired Waze years ago.

You buy a tesla to use their charging infrastructure. Good luck trying to find available fast chargers if u want to drive long distance. Rich rebuilds tried to drive 1200 miles in ford lightning- look up the video it is a few months old
I've had Tesla since last May. Never used a Supercharger. Most of my Tesla owning friends have only used them a handful of times, or never.

EVs ultimate use is as a daily driver or commuter car. Or if you have a second home less than 200 miles away. They are not road trip cars.

Personally, I think you should rent a car if you are going on an extended road trip. Put the miles on another vehicle, and have instant, free replacement should you have a mechanical issue. For example, in Hawaii (obviously we won't be driving our own cars, but the rental issue is the same) I once got in an accident. Called Hertz and within an hour I had a new car without leaving my hotel. Once my daughter threw up on the Road to Hana (turned around about mile 10!), car stunk...drove past Airport Hertz and swapped it out instead of having a vomit smelling car for a week.

Quote from CT200H :
Best explanation. As long as you pay taxes, the 7500 will be applicable. I just wish there wasn't an income cap. My brother, who does much better than me wanted one but wants the credit too. Lol. Go figure!

Leasing can avoid the income cap- but since Tesla 1st party leases don't pass through the credit he'd need to find a 3rd party leasing company that does. I know for a fact those existed when the prior tax credit was around in the 2017ish time period, but I don't know who specifically offers that today. If he cares that much he can look into it though.

Quote from Wyvern1 :
Does anyone think more price cuts are coming down the pipeline?

Tesla makes price adjustments all the time. They RAISED prices on some trims multiple times this year as well as reducing them at other times.... same for past years. Some cars, even with the most recent cuts, are still MORE than they were a few years ago (ex-tax-credit) and some are slightly cheaper now.


So yes, at SOME point in the future whatever model/trim you're looking at may be cheaper than this. It also might be more expensive. It also might not even be offered for order at the time (see the LR AWD Model 3 for example that hasn't been available to order since mid-last-year)


So you can either buy a car when you need one and think the current price is fair... or you can be the guy still rocking a 1080p Plasma from 2013 because that awesome OLED you want "will be cheaper later" and always will be.

Does anyone have experience in getting price adjustment on a recent order (just few days old), no delivery date assigned.

Check your order agreement in the Tesla website…It should have been updated…if updated then download it for safer side.

Quote from Knightshade :
Unless you earned almost 0 income for the year you owe money to the IRS.

Don't confuse this with "how big your refund is"

That has nothing to do with it.

If you earn X dollars, you owe Y in taxes.

Whatever deductions you have from your paycheck is a prepayment of Y, but does not change the value of Y.

It's the value of Y that matters for the tax credit.


Broadly speaking (using 2022 tax tables-- 2023 may be different but not by much), a net taxable income of $54,000 or higher filing single, or $65,900 married filing jointly, gets you a Y of at least $7500- meaning you'd get the full value of the $7500 tax credit.
dont forget about the standard deduction, I think you can make roughly 13k a year without owing to the IRS

It's amazing how much misinformation about Tesla cars is in this thread. Simply unbelievable. Either the posters are lying because they hate Elon or they are union trolls or can't afford one. Amazing lies. Wow.
Can I like Tesla but dislike Elon?

So if I buy it now, the tax credit is based on my income in 2023 and I'll get the credit in 2024?

Not disagreeing but over 40% of households didn't pay tax last year. If you have other deductions/credits which result in zero tax liability can you still get the credit?

In total, about 59.9 percent of U.S. households paid income tax in 2022. The remaining 40.1 percent of households paid no individual income tax

I bought my wife a 2023 Tesla Model Y LR. Had many issues but they took care of all issues. Would buy again. In California, u can get $2000 refund plus the federal $7500 credit. It's worth it with all discounts and save $ on gas. Let's see on things plan out after warranty expires for EV cars. Is it like BMW or Toyota cars after 50k miles?

Of course. I'm sure lots of CEO's aren't the greatest people but you still buy their products

Musk is a special case because he craves attention and behaves like an A$$. If Tesla makes sense for you it's worth considering.

Keep in mind Tesla has no respect for customer privacy.

2019 Model 3 owner here. Yes, I'm in this boat. Also maybe I'm lucky but I didn't experience a single misalignment or any other issue with mine. I love it, especially for the price vs. range and convenience aspect.

Sure, look at all of the people who buy Apple products. Steve Jobs was a horrible person.
