- $300,000 for married couples filing jointly
- $225,000 for heads of households
- $150,000 for all other filers
- The tax credit is not refundable, which means one must have federal tax due to take advantage of it. If the tax due is less than the credit amount, one can only claim the credit up to the amount of the tax due.

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.

Did they, like you, also not read the actual IRS FAQ on this exact topic?
As an L2 ADAS it's excellent, far better than any other system offered here- in most cases it'll do 99% of the work of driving-- but it's not good enough to stop paying attention yet.
How good in what context?

Sure?
That was a now-ancient version of autopilot, in use by a guy who was playing video games on is phone rather than noticing his car driving toward a highway barrier that had gone previously unrepaired for a good while before the car hit it.... so not really relevant to... anything?

How do you think that cost will hold up in resell value 10 years from now?
I'd need to probably spend around 100% (or more) of the Corolla's value over that "maximum" ownership period. If you perform all the necessary maintenance - it could indeed last hundreds of thousands of miles.
The difference is that while the Toyota has predictable (and honestly, expensive) maintenance schedules - the Tesla (generally speaking) does not. Thus the cost of ownership looks very different over the same ownership period/mileage.
At 150,000 miles, both cars may run into issues. The probability is that the Tesla's could be expensive (high voltage battery, drive motor, suspension linkages, etc) - while the Toyota's would likely be less-so (alternator, belts, etc). The difference is that you will have probably already spent $10K in maintenance on the Corolla by that point.
In such a hypothetical - the Tesla might not be economical to repair (relative to it's value at that point) - whereas the Corolla fits into a sunk cost fallacy where throwing another $600-$1200 at it makes more sense than buying a new car.
I still have 2 plugins but until EV can stabilize price wise and cold weather range I am going to hold off on getting a new one. Now my Tesla was old skool no heat pump but my cousin has a 2023 and while the heat pump is better it still sucks in the winter.
In any case outside of the $8000 in warranty repairs it was good after the first year except the paint was atrocious and so was the panel alignment.
There's several independent shops out there that can take out your battery tray and find out which battery cell(s) needs to be replaced. Should save you thousands.
