Tesla Delivery Tips to Secure the $7,500 Tax Credit + Must-Have Accessories
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you've recently placed an order for a Tesla and are stressing about the delivery date—especially if it's showing something vague like "September" or even pushing into October—you're not alone. With the $7,500 federal tax credit potentially on the line if you don't take delivery by September 30th, I've got some quick tips to help you speed things up or switch to a vehicle that can get to you sooner. Plus, once you've got your Tesla, you'll want to kit it out with some essential accessories. Let's dive in!
Quick Tips to Accelerate Your Tesla Delivery
If your order screen is being elusive with no specific dates (like September 9th to 20th) and you're worried about missing out on that hefty tax credit, here are some actionable steps you can take:
1. Check for Similar Inventory
Be flexible with colors, interior options, wheels, and other specs. Ask Tesla if there's similar inventory inbound that matches closely enough. It might not be your dream config, but saving $7,500 could make it worth the compromise!
2. Look into Demo Vehicles
Demo cars often come with a discount and low mileage. Even if it's got a few thousand miles on it and only $1,000 off, that's a small price compared to losing out on the full tax credit. Inquire about any available demos that could be assigned to you.
3. Contact Tesla Advisors Directly
This is my top recommendation! Call, text, or visit a Tesla store in person. The advisors there have access to inventory that might not show up on the website—like vehicles coming out of demo status. They can potentially reassign one to your order and get you on the road ASAP.
These tips have helped many Tesla buyers beat the clock, so give them a shot if you're in a time crunch.
Essential Accessories for Your New Tesla
Now that you're on your way to owning a Tesla (or already do), did you know it comes with zero accessories? Not even a basic phone mount! But don't worry—I've got recommendations for must-haves that every Tesla owner should consider. These come from our partner, Joah, and I personally use their products, so I can vouch for the quality.
Top Must-Have Accessories
- Phone Mount: Keeps your phone secure during those quick accelerations—no more flying devices!
- Center Console Organizer: Prevents you from losing small items in the abyss of your console.
- Invisible Underscreen Storage Mount: My newest favorite—perfect for stashing sunglasses or other essentials out of sight.
Joah offers even more cool stuff, like a wireless game controller that fits neatly in the glove box, a portable air compressor for road trip peace of mind, and even an electric scooter to zip around from superchargers without walking.
