There's a pattern with Tesla threads here. I don't care if you all wanna discuss the deal or the cars but it always turns into paaaages and paaaages of bickering back and forth and nobody ,except for the few involved, enjoy that or wanna wade through that. So cut that stuff out, please and thank you.

Either early June or early Sept or early Dec will be the best times to buy.
1. Reliability
2. Cost of Repair
3. Depreciation
What are y'all's thoughts on this?
The depreciation for EV's are higher so I would buy a used one with low miles or lease one and then buy which unfortunately teslas don't offer lease to buy
Also I don't think Teslas are "fancy" cars, unless you are talking about the S/X. The 3/Y are meant to be daily commuters and family cars. Someone mentioned Highlander Hybrid, but to get a similar trim (ie leather seats and AWD), you need the Limited trim (51.6k). A RAV4 hybrid with Softex is the XSE trim (38.7k). The MY LR is between those two and so is competitively priced, with vastly superior cruise control/lane assist built in (standard autopilot is very good/safe for the highways).
It's always been this way in car world.
PSA: if you want this brand, lease it with no money down.

Tax credit is Non Refundable and you can't roll it forward so you need 7500 in tax liability the year you buy it.
This is not correct,you do not need $7500 in tax liability if you take the credit at point of sale, but then find you have less than $7500 in liability when you file taxes. The IRS will not claw back any difference.

A4. The amount of the credit that the electing taxpayer elects to transfer to the eligible entity may exceed the electing taxpayer's regular tax liability for the taxable year in which the sale occurs, and the excess, if any, is not subject to recapture from the dealer or the buyer.
Why are you stopping for an hour to add the amount of charge that should take about 5-10 minutes?
How do you have $2400 in repairs for a car that should've been in full warranty until this year? (and still is for powertrain) unless you drive an unusually high # of miles.
