Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're in the market for a Tesla Model Y or Model 3, this is your final warning: the clock is ticking on some incredible incentives. In my latest video, I broke down everything you need to know about these last-minute deals, the $7,500 federal tax credit, and tips to maximize your savings. Let's dive into it right here in this blog post.
Today could be your last day to snag a free upgrade on Tesla Model Y rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive models. We're talking valuations of $1,000 to $2,000 off, essentially giving you options like premium wheels or paint for free. For Model 3s, you might have another week or so, but don't sleep on this!
I've been scouting the inventory, and rear-wheel drive options are flying off the virtual shelves. For example:
These deals are in high demand, and by the time you read this, they might already be gone. If you spot one, lock it in with a $250 non-refundable deposit. And pro tip: Use a Tesla referral code (like mine in the video description) to get three months of Full Self-Driving for free. If you're already opting for FSD, it supports the channel – thanks in advance!
All-wheel drive models have even more inventory, including demo discounts stacking up to $2,000 off. But remember, this isn't entirely new – Tesla has done similar "option credits" in the past to close deals.
One viewer commented that even after these public incentives end, sales associates might have discretion to offer workarounds, like waiving costs on paint, interiors, or even tow hitches. It's not advertised on the Tesla site, but it's possible. What do you think? Drop your thoughts in the comments below – have you scored a discreet deal before?
There's been some confusion out there, so let's clear it up: The $7,500 federal tax credit for Model 3 and Model Y depends on your delivery date, not when you place the order. You must take delivery by September 30th to qualify. Order date? Irrelevant. It's all about when you pick up the keys.
As we approach the deadline, Tesla might get creative with workarounds, like committing to a vehicle in transit. We've seen similar tactics from brands like Rivian in the past. Stay tuned – I'll keep you updated!
If you're trading in your current vehicle for a new Tesla, do not trade it directly to Tesla. They often give the lowest offers. Instead, check out my partner, GiveMeTheVin.com. They buy your car from the comfort of your home and provide instant offers. It's a game-changer for getting the maximum value – link in the description.
Planning to finance your Tesla? Before you apply, protect your credit! Recent data breaches, like the one at Bank of America (which they didn't disclose for a month), highlight how vulnerable your info is. Companies often wait an average of 277 days to report breaches – that's nine months of exposure!
That's why I use Aura, today's sponsor. Aura scans the dark web for your personal info (social security, bank details, etc.) and alerts you immediately. Plus, it reduces spam calls, removes your data from shady broker sites, and includes $5 million in identity theft insurance – all in one app.
Try Aura free for 14 days at aura.com/denniscw. Don't wait until it's too late; protect yourself now, just like turning on Sentry Mode before trouble strikes.
Whether you're eyeing a Model Y with free upgrades or aiming for that tax credit, act fast! Share your Tesla buying plans in the comments – are you pulling the trigger? If you enjoyed this, subscribe to my YouTube channel for more Tesla updates, and don't forget to use those referral links.
Drive safe, and let's keep the EV revolution rolling!
