Yes, but this is not the only app that does it.
The My Tesla Remote app ($1.99 with no subscription fees) can be installed on the Watch only without installing the companion app on the iPhone and paired with the Tesla by VIN. This app can do all the same commands via Bluetooth (if this your...
This is a loophole because this $7,500 tax credit (that is now loop-holed into the leases) was designed for commercial purchases. What happened was that leasing companies realized they could buy these vehicles for themselves, get the $7,500 tax credit, and then turn around and lease these...
Basically, we should just assume that the $7,500 tax credit is going away soon and not rely on this when making a decision to buy an EV. If you can get the credit, consider yourself lucky.
If the $7,500 loophole on leases ever existed, the IRS seems to have caught up on this loophole and is...
They could establish an early-buyout penalty of, say, $1,000. It would still be worth it. With a penalty, it can't be presumed as an intent to sell under the guise of leasing.
Especially, as they are trying to pull all demand levers they can to deliver as many vehicles as possible by the end of the year. They would sell a lot of Cybertrucks if they would allow us to buy out the leases say after the first lease payment. And if they do allow this, and we don't know...
I’ve just tried to modify the lease terms. It tells me I can’t make the down payment higher than $17,095. So, the leasing institution wants to make money on the interest, and doesn’t let you put down a larger chunk than 17,095.
So, perhaps it’s possible to make the down payment be $24,595...
I live in metro Atlatna, and I've been given a quote of about $870 for six months to insure Cybertruck (in addition to my Model Y, which is about $740 for six months). I have homeowners and umbrella policies with the same insurance company, so I'm getting a discount for having a triple-play...
That's what it means. The standard deal on the Tesla web site shows $7,500 down, so I guess without the credit applied, the standard downpayment would be $15,000. Unfortunately, the Tesla delivery people do not know any of this. It's like someone saw a guy walking by the Tesla delivery center...
If it's losing miles, but not losing the State of Charge in percentages, then this is just a GOM's estimation of the milage based on ambient temperature.
So, this would be a great deal to get the Cybertruck with the $7,500 discount (and currently actually $9,500 because Tesla is giving an extra $2,000 off before the end of the year). Even with some junk fees for the buyout, it's still over $8,500 in discounts. The only real question remaining is...
I've never leased a vehicle, and never planned to, but I want to get the $7,500 credit. When I looked at the lease terms on the Tesla site, there was a $7,500 downpayment listed (curiously, the same amount as the $7,500 as the tax credit - coincidence???). I asked the Tesla delivery people as to...
Question is, Can you buy it out early or do you have to wait until the end of the lease to buy it out?
For example, can I buy it out after the first month of the lease?
I asked this question of the local Tesla delivery people at the Tesla Service Center, and they didn't know if I had to wait...
Explain, please.
1. How much is the one-time write-off on the Cybertruck for 2024?
2. What's the accelerated schedule for the next four years (year 2 through year 5)?
3. What happens if, for example, after 5 years $60,000 has been written off out of the $85,000 of the purchase price? So, the...
What happens now with Tessie that Tesla has jacked up the API costs to the point that third-party apps find it unaffordable to continue to use the Tesla third-party API?
It doesn't work like this. Under Section 179, you can't deduct the entire cost of the vehicle. For 2024, the maximum is $30,500 under Section 179 in the first year of ownership plus for 2024, you can deduct 60% of total price under the Bonus Appreciation rule; this amount reduces to 40% in 2025...
