    Did we just invest in Mazda/Tesla 3s?

    Would still plug in the charge-hole.

    Not pretty, but I'll take those stats & autopilot any day at that price.

    Yup, good enough for me. Will not be getting my $1000 refunded.

    115k teslas already preordered, most likely that number will hit 200k easily as people wait to see what it looks like. How likely is getting the tax credit now?

    Tesla advertises their car as $35k which is without incentives, unlike Chevy Bolt which advertises it with incentives baked in. The incentive is for every/any EV, not just Tesla. The taxpayer is also on the hook for the oil industry, agriculture industry and many others, as you well know. The incentive will run out soon - and it won't stop people from buying it.
