When it comes to the Federal Tax Credit, you must remember there are only 2 reasons a credit like this even exists: 1) The goal is to increase EV adoption. 2) Some politicians want to look good to their constituents. The goal is NOT to use our money. Because that money lowers what's available...
I disagree with this statement. When tesla first added the Core Wheels, the wheel itself had a different structure on the wheel itself. And they paired it with the All-Season tires. And the covers were of a different design as well. So you can still swap from AT to AS tires on either wheel. But...
I had the option to order that accessory. It's being shipped to me now, ahead of the CT. I'm hoping yours is just an outlier. Wonder how hard it'd be to return for credit?
My thought is that they sent emails to a block that was large enough to cover current inventory and expected near term production, and factoring their guess on take rate. I thought that by responding even sooner than I was ready, might avoid large delay once a large group starts converting to...
There was another thread, started shortly after this one. But most folks have been posting here. My non-FS AWD CT should hit the Lynnwood WA SC on 10/22.
Got my VIN this morning! Timeline:
•Reservation #: RN11293XXXX
•Got non-FS email: 10/4/24
•Converted Reservation to order on 10/6/24 (evening)
•I went with AWD all basic options; no FSD.
•Got my VIN on 10/9/24 (morning)
Looks like they are over 40,000 trucks produced. Last 6 digits of my VIN...
Not so. There's a difference between working folks and retirees. I worked hard and saved. So, my AGI is easily half fof the threshold. But I can pay cash for the CT.
Now if they'd just assign me a VIN...
Great idea. Carvana offered me $1,900. Anyone have experience using them? I was honest in my appraisal of the car's condition. Is there a chance they will lowball it later, like Tesla did?
I understand that. And I have personalized Ham Radio plates that trading in will make an easier task. But KBB estimates $2300 to $3600; their original estimate was $1700; but now they offer $600.
Just now I went back into the app. I discovered they made a "new" offer on value of my trade-in. It's considerably lower than what they estimated. They likely were waiting on my accepting there offer. I'm not sure what I want to do now. I rejected their offer, and gave my reasons, for wanting...
I'm waiting until I get my Garage closer to done. But probably before December.
I changed my mind. Going to configure now. My neighbor will let me charge using their L14-30 outlet, in their garage. Still have to work out a few details. Like how get the adapter kit, when they appear to be sold...
I think it's some sinister plot to mess with my mind! Somehow they knew my Garage wasn't ready. Now they've got me thinking about running power cords from my Household dryer plug, and parking it in the unfinished garage... Oh the misery!!!
Well, I've made it 3 hours now without caving....
I was surprised to get the Non FS email today. I'm way down the reservation list (RN1129XXXXX), reserved on 11/23/2019 (evening). My Garage is just getting Framed over the next 2 weeks. Emotions are tougher than I expected.
I too would like to get the tax credit. But the lack of official...
Another thought about this. What if you showed up to a SC and there'd been a power outage, and you couldn't charge there? Would you take action against Tesla, or the utility company? A SC is really no different than a store. They want you to buy what they have. But if something happens where you...
As I understand it, the Core wheels are All-Season tires, Pirelli Scorpion ELECT ATR 285/65R20. Whereas the Cyber Wheels are All-Terrain tires, Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT 285/65R20.
In my new Garage, I'm putting a 14-50 outlet on the outside, in-between the two garage doors. It'll be for friends with EV's that visit me. So that might be something to consider.
