Fork in the road

BTW, is T-Tim, the Chairman of the Minnesota Investment Board, jawboning the stock price down because he hates State of Minnesota pension beneficiaries or because he wants to buy more tsla?

I see we’re still going to focus on the .01% of the problem.

Just so you’re aware, Tims not impacting teslas stock at all. My guess is a majority of their stock is tied up with institutional investors, money managers managing billions in actively managed funds within 401k and IRAs, etc. Tesla just had a massive recall, insurance companies won’t insure the cyberturd, and Elons doing more drugs than an 80s hair band and casually throwing around Nazi salutes. And you’re whining about Tim? 😂
 
Btw, flatland, a new 2025 Model 3 rwd, long range MSRP is $34,990 after $7,500 Point of sale tax credit. (not $50,000)

The #1 selling vehicle worldwide, Tesla Model Y has an MSRP of $37,490 today with the tax rebate at point of sale. Also *not* $50,000.

FWIW, if I were to buy a car, I would be buying the Model 3 AWD performance version....not the basic bitch RWD version and definitely not their economy SUV. That car is $47,500 after the tax credit and if you buy it in any color except gray, you lose the tax credit and it's suddenly $57,000.....not $35k.

So...quit trying to be clever when you don't know what the f#ck you are talking about. I was interested in buying a Tesla until I realized that a $57,000 Tesla was the same fit and finish as a $30,000 car. I used to own an Acura TLX and while it was a bit too slow for my liking, at least the interior was a great place to be. Tesla Model 3? Not so much.

You missed his rant, got it!

BTW looks like T-Tim called the bottom @ 225

I would be happiest if he sold out Minnesota at the bottom.

It's the performance trim not the color that negates the $7,500 credit. Not sure if this will come through correctly.

I looked at the Tesla website. If you click on your link and change the tab from "Finance" to "Cash", you should see that it's $47,490. When you go to the color tab, every color but grey is at least $1,000 and that puts the Model 3 Performance above the $55,000 cap.

Tesla uses dynamic pricing. It literally changes from day to day. About 3 months ago we purchased a model Y performance awd. The thing is awesome. The reason for buying it wasn’t because its electric, it was for the Full Self Drive (FSD). I drive between Chelan and Redmond on Hwy 2 and don’t touch the steering wheel or pedals once.

First, let me say that I'm glad that you like your Model Y. It's not what I'm looking for in a vehicle but I'm sure it's a great one for a lot of people.

Tesla has an interesting incentive for people looking at the Tesla Model 3. If you buy a Model 3 Performance AWD with Ultra Red paint, the cost is $56,990 and the car is not eligible for the federal tax credit. If you add FSD, they add $8k to the price but they include Ultra Red at no cost instead of a $2k markup......and the car becomes eligible for the federal tax credit....so it's actually cheaper to buy a Model 3 Performance AWD with Ultra Red paint with FSD than without it.

I'm still not interested, but it's a good deal for those that are.

Good for you but no thanks. I'll use my hands and feet when I drive thank you very much. I guess I would like to see this in action. Maybe on a snow and ice covered Stevens Pass.

And these electric car rebates - I thought Trump was going to get rid of theses along with all electric mandates and incentives. Where did that go?

You should have resisted Lemu Emu training and familiarized yourself, if you really cared, which you don’t.

Just know, falling diesel prices will continue which of course means more budget for your Cold Blue Mountain refreshment

* Most of the EO is tied up in court now thanks to your idols playing Block Baby Block.
