I got my trade-in quote directly from Tesla and they're the ones who quoted me about $45k for my 2023 MYP with 6k miles.
Yeah the main reasons I would want the model X are the suspension and the rear passenger doors would make it a lot easier to load/unload young kids. From my understanding, it's not possible to change the seat configuration form 5 seater to 6 seater after purchasing? Is that true? If the 6 seater qualified for the tax credit now, that would be a lot more tempting.
Those who say it's too expensive, Tesla's goal is to make EVs affordable for everyone.
Model 2 should be in the 20k's, and there's talk of a smaller cybertruck.
For most situations, the longer you can wait, the better. But the sooner you get one, the sooner you can start enjoying.
Those with cash would obviously benefit more, but for most, all they care about is monthly payments, so lower prices are balanced out by higher interest rates.
To each their own.
This was from recent research I did across EV and tax forums. I never found anything official that states this, but it makes sense.

Has the U.S. electric car market currently become saturated?
Is Tesla cutting prices because there's actually competition now?
These are legit questions.
I've always been intrigued by the performance aspects of Electrics, but other than the looks of the model S no other Tesla models have ever appealed to me.
I still believe that the power and charging infrastructure, and the current EV battery chemistries aren't even close to mass adoption levels yet. Will all these things eventually happen? Probably.
When will Mass adoption happen? Who knows.
Prices, better battery chemistry, and infrastructure are the only things holding E.V.'s back from taking over, But I think we're still a long way from that happening, and I think these price cuts, and other manufacturers electrics reportedly starting to rot on dealer lots, are a good indication that Electrics aren't quite ready for the mainstream.
It is tough to focus on privacy but it can be done. Any app including browsers you don't pay for is using your data, glad to see people committed to online privacy given how tough it is to protect your data privacy.
All tesla does is use anonymized camera data if you're in FSD to better train their neural network.
They give no shits how many times you go to Dunkin' Donuts or whatever
Gm and ford and others have no answer to price cuts and he can freeze them from entering some segments until their supply chain pricing is reduced. They are losing money just entering the market. They have better looking vehicles, so he is pulling a pricing lever while he can as it will pay off 10x and ensure he has little to no inventory carry costs which costs more than any price cuts.
Like any product, you have early adopters, then mass adoption, then laggards (bell curve).
The fact that other manufacturers are partnering with Tesla on supercharger network means they capitulated and he will get continuous revenue like apple does with mFi. This happens at the end of any early adoption cycle. Mass adoption is sooner than later and new battery tech will be here in time for swapping out batteries for the cars purchased now. Which will probably coincide with mass adoption.

Like you, enjoy the car a lot so will ride it out and hope for the best.
Not all leasing companies choose to pass some or all of that $7500 along to the customer- that's entirely decided by the leasing company.

I'm a car guy, I own multiple performance vehicles as well as drag cars. Your comments come off ignorant as hell. Educate yourself. Do better.
EVs are great for secondary vehicles and grocery getters. That's it. They're completely boring and nobody is excited about them in racing.
