The Model Y can be delivered this month, no games, no dealer bs. Just need to make sure you can find somebody who can qualify you for the rebates and it works out to be about the same if not cheaper than a ratrolla or a civic.





P.s. Fuck you Honda and your 32k base model Civic.

I still dislike Tesla's immensely but the value proposition is the best in the market right now.
I've never leased a car before, but isn't there some sort of equity on non-Telsa leases where you could either purchase the car at end of the lease (or even some positive equity on trade ins) that you won't get on a Telsa as that's purely a rental without any buy out possible?

That and people still drive 20k/year?

Gotta admit though, the way they layered in the "gas savings" is a great marketing trick.
