Hey everyone, Dennis here from DennisCW! If you're into Tesla deal hacking like I am, you're in for a treat. In my latest video/stream, I broke down an insane deal shared by viewer Sahil – buying a brand new Tesla Model 3 with zero down and 0% financing. No out-of-pocket costs, and it's his first auto loan ever! We also covered Tesla news, accessories, and even a sneaky giveaway. Let's dive in.
Shoutout to Sahil for sending this over – it's a game-changer. Imagine walking away with a Tesla Model 3 Long Range All-Wheel Drive for $49,000 (before taxes and fees), financed at 0% over 60 months, with a monthly payment of just $684.77. And get this: zero money down from his pocket.
How? It leverages the $7,500 federal EV tax credit and a $3,500 state incentive as the "down payment." Plus, you need to add Full Self-Driving (FSD) to qualify for the 0% rate. Sahil had no prior auto loan history – just good credit, income, and a long relationship with the bank Tesla partnered with (via credit cards).
Key details:
This isn't for everyone – it's an advanced strategy for those savvy with money. If you have better opportunities for your cash (like investing or high-yield savings), it could make sense. But remember, this is not financial advice! Check Tesla's site for current incentives on Model 3 and Y.

Tesla launched a new Model 3 with up to 515 miles of range (CLTC estimate – likely 420-430 miles EPA). It features a 78.4 kWh LG battery and starts at ~$37,492 (China pricing). Hoping for a US version with a front camera soon. What's your priority: range, interior, or something else?
The six-seater Model Y (Long Wheelbase) is rumored for global release, including North America and Europe, post-China launch. It might come cheaper than the AWD version and includes a unique duckbill spoiler for better aerodynamics. Expect it in Q4 after the $7,500 tax credit ends (September 30th deadline – order and take delivery by then!).
Starlink kits are on clearance at $175 (50% off), with plans as low as $10/month (though standard is $100). Great for road trips – I mounted one in my Tesla. Use my referral for a free month: link in description.
Tesla shared a video of a 7-hour FSD trip with zero interventions (sped up, with supercharger pauses). FSD has come a long way – I was skeptical but now love it for daily use. If you're buying, join our waitlist for half-off FSD via DM on Instagram.
