That is how much I pay for my 2 cars yearly
Exactly my point about insurance costs being FAR too variable to just say "Tesla's cost twice as much to insure."

Quote from Knightshade :
Do you mean you don't qualify because you make too much money? (because that's the only cutoff as of next year)

If so, ALL buyers on the title must be below the income cap- so no they can't buy it "with you" to add eligibility for the credit.

They also can't buy it and then immediately "sell" it to you as there's now a 30 day holding period to try and enforce the "buying for purposes to keeping it not reselling it" rule.

You can of course wait 31 days and do that- but if their intent on purchase is doing that they'd be engaging in tax fraud.







Believe it or not comma.ai does not make or sell (and does not CLAIM to make or sell) anything that provides autonomous driving.

Folks ignorant of the difference between ADAS and autonomous probably shouldn't be making system recommendations to folks.

Commas system also lacks many of the capabilities Teslas most advanced ADAS system (fsdb) has, but it does cost more than $1450 of course. Commas system is more (but not precisely) comparable to the free basic autopilot Tesla offers.
I am not sure how the spot tax credit works next year, but for now, all buyers must be below income cap is not true. You can have both you and your parents on the title, but ONLY they can claim the tax benefits when they file for tax returns next year. They can only claim back what they owe in taxes up to a max of $7500.

If you're an average driver, you can expect to drive your Tesla for more than a decade before you think about a battery replacement. Beyond that, your Tesla can clock over one million miles if you replace the batteries and motor
At 400 miles/charge, that would require nearly 3 years of that time spent charging the car. Considering degradation, it's probably 4 years. If you drive 400 miles EVERY DAY, it would take about 7 years to hit 1,000,000 miles.

Quote from DoodleJinx :
Test drove the Model Y Long range with both 19" and 20" wheels. Unfortunately, it's not for me. Ride in the back seat is very bumpy. Wife and kids are not at all happy with the ride quality. First test drive was with Chill mode and Creep switched off. Felt nauseous and car sick in a 30 min drive. Next drive was with Chill mode and Creep turned on (next day). Still felt a bit nauseous. Is this normal? What am I missing? Is this something that only a few people experience. Searching on YouTube for "Tesla car sickness" shows that quite a few people experience this. What am I missing and any pointers on how to address these issues? Thanks
Most likely this maybe due to driving between 45-55 mph on city streets that are not in good condition. Also, it maybe due to improper alignment of the trunk. I see no issues on driving newly paved roads; however, certain sections of beat up streets would cause "wind buffeting". Did you try tilting the back seat a bit? It has 3 levels, at first the vehicle came with the most upright position and it was brutal… and then I adjusted it to the middle position.

So first- I deeply appreciate the clarification- you're right you can let multiple people be on the title and then have only one, so long as they file separately, be the one who uses the credit and only they are evaluated for if they qualify based on income cap.

THAT said, it's important if doing this to insure the seller knows which person that is, because they have to report to the IRS who "bought" the car for tax purposes- IRS addresses that in the FAQ here, question 11:

https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/topi...%20vehicle

The relevant bit:
Quote from IRS :
The name and taxpayer identification number of the owner claiming the credit new clean vehicle credit should be listed on the seller's report. See Topic B, FAQ 9. Accordingly, multiple owners of a new clean vehicle should inform the seller which owner will claim the new clean vehicle credit so that the seller can identify that taxpayer on the seller's report. The credit would be allowed only on the tax return of the owner listed in the seller's report.

So assuming say his dad qualified for the credit and was going to take it, they could both be on the title but they'd need to insure Tesla files his dad, not him, as the relevant person on the sellers report.

"It's important to note that Gemmingen has had the Model S' battery pack replaced at least twice, which isn't bad considering 1 million miles. In addition, he's on his eighth electric motor. "

Doesn't bode well for your argument dude.
No one is saying they don't require maintenance or major repairs during their lifetime. Do you think any of the ice vehicles that have broken the million mile Mark haven't had major engine work? Transmission replacement? Etc..

First of all, it's called "full self drive". Second, hardly anyone wants it. Most people that have it would get a refund if they could.

Today? When you file your taxes it offsets, dollar for dollar, your tax liability (see line 18 of your 1040). If your liability is less than $7500 then it only offsets whatever amount of liability you do have.

Jan 1 2024 you get $7500 off the price at time of purchase by signing over the right to the credit to the seller of the car and your tax liability no longer matters.

In both cases the max income cap still matters though (150k single or 300k married filing jointly) and if you're over the cap you get $0 credit. You can use your income from EITHER the year you buy or the previous year whichever is better for you.

Quote from ggapropros :
The AWD and range increase makes this a decently easy choice now, frankly these cars last forever, teslas ability to make the car an appliance means youll likely keep it in your family for years upon years, youll either give it to your parents, sister, kid, etc after 8 years. $4500 over 8 years is only extra $562. Its almost "regret insurance" at that point, if every year you get into a situation where you wish you had awd and slightly more range than youll kick yourself for not having gotten this. (I also think the LR has subwoofers and rwd doesnt... but someone would have to confirm that for me)
Appliances only last, on the average, eight years.
No battery last forever so this car will end up as a typical appliance.

If the Model 3 comes back to 36 K it would be a good deal.
