MY LR only up $1,500 but I think they will raise it again this week.

Getting impatient for my Cybertruck?

He'll just ban your account.

But seriously, I don't think reservations made back then had any guarantee of prices. Do you have anything in your email when you made the reservation?

There was a discussion about this on some Telsa forum and I don't remember what the conclusion was.
 
In the case of Rivian, reservation holders were not entitled to the initial price and had to pay the new price get a deposit refund.
 
Rivian (at least now) is a little different because those were configured reservations.

The Telsa ones were always just a line holder, like the F-150 LIghtning. It's not until you order your configuration where you can get some price guarantee.

I have the r1s pre price hike reservation, they raised it, but honored the initial pricing later on. But they did get rid of the lowest price configuration, forced to buy one of the packages. But any of the extra options are also priced before the hike.

Test drove one, the rear seats (3rd row) is really cramped and storage is smaller than I expected it to be, almost feels like the Honda pilot had more room in the back. The front however is very roomy.

Yes, I have an email and an "Order Agreement" PDF attachment... The fine print says:

Final Price Sheet: The Final Price Sheet will be provided to you as your delivery date nears. It will include final pricing based on your Vehicle
Configuration and will include taxes and official or governmental fees.

So ya, probably not going to be $40k

I stand corrected.
 
There's only 2 Tesla Model Y's in inventory in all of CA right now... Tesla's numbers next quarter are going to look amazing. After that, it's anyone's guess... Model Y is to Tesla what the iPhone is to Apple.

Anyone buying leaps?

Tesla slashes prices again:

Tesla (TSLA) slashes prices across all its electric vehicles again

Tesla (TSLA) has implemented a new wave of price reductions across its entire lineup of electric vehicles. Prices on some...
electrek.co electrek.co

Probably for a 2nd quarter push for total quarter deliveries, more expensive models (S/X) selling slowly, and response to the new Fed ruling to reduce the tax credit due to battery source/assembly.

Supposedly, Model 3 will lose half of the credit because the LFP battery is made in China, but MY (according to Tesla's website) should still get the full $7,500 credit.
