Guys please tell me why this idea is dumb. Brand new, a Tesla model y LR with taxes etc is going to run me 52-53k I don’t even think that includes taxes. I’m looking online and seeing a ton of Tesla Model Y with less than 5k miles on them for like 40-42K. I know this isn’t a new idea, but am I m…

This is the golden age of hacking EV leases and likely about to end soon. Why would you waste this opportunity on something so unhacked?

Did you test it at highway speeds on bumpy roads? Compare it to the EQS/EQE, iX, IONIQ 5, Lyriq.

If you buy any Tesla you take on all the residual value risk down the road. The next time Musk randomly decided to cut new Tesla prices you will be in for more pain. If you buy it, plan on owning it for a long time.

I would go used, but not own beyond the warranty period. I think the sweet spot right now is a 22 Model Y LR which has an MMR around $28K and with average mileage around 36k you should be able to get 2 years out of warranty with a low cost of ownership. I think the biggest impact to valuation will …

No real reason to buy used. Look for a discounted Inventory MY. They have 3-4k off plus $500 off referral codes are out there on top of that you get $7500 EV credit ( if you qualify if not you need to lease to get the $7500 off ) You can get a Long Range AWD for around 38-40k plus 60 Months 0% int…

it’s not a line item per say but it’s included in there. think they take it off or play with the residual or use it as a “down payment”. if you speak to someone they can send you a deal with it all laid out. Also right now the APR on the lease is around 1.88% as well. You can be under $500 for 36…

Read the below but yeah, it’s pretty much to be expected. No hacking Tesla deals.
