I was too until I came to the realization I could:
1) Buy the XLT SR right now OR
2) Be waiting until 2023 or 2024 for the pro and get 0 tax incentive.
Too much unknow & I want a truck in 2022.
Also, buying a EV for 50K is still VERY cheap honestly... Let alone a TRUCK!
Any EV with 230 miles...
I bought the XLT SR in Wave 3 because I can take advantage of my State (CA) & Fed tax incentive to offset the cost. Otherwise I would have waited for the PRO. I can get 7500 Fed and like 2000 state and another 1000 local rebate if I buy the XLT
SO my line 24 shows about $12,000 in 2021.
Does that mean if I get my Lightning in 2022 that I can reduce that # by 7500?
So line 24 would then read 4500?
I was happy with the PRO so after realizing cost and tax savings, I am happy with the XLT basic setup with a spray in. I didn't add anything on. I use my truck 95% of the time for a daily driver 5 miles back and forth to work.
Exactly LOL ~ It STILL is a FAIR value for a EV truck honestly. Its just not a Crazy great deal like the Pro.
The extras are nice.
I looked into getting something else & realized I was going to spend $45K+ MIN for any truck no matter what. This was spending 54K and getting $7500 Tax rebate +...
Yea, last few waves people were able to order after NOON PST so 2 1/2 hours from now & emails came out shortly thereafter.
I'm going to start checking around Noon.
If the current trend continues, people may be able to access the order banks tomorrow.
Is there ANYONE who still has not ordered that has access to the order bank from Wave 1 or Wave 2?
Curious what the site looks like today as they prepare for the next wave.
My Nor CA dealer claims they are receiving 10 for MY2022.
I am 8th on the list out of 150+
They had 0 in Wave 1
They had 3 in Wave 2
We will see how wave 3 plays out on Thursday.
Good Morning everyone!
Now that we have all come to terms with the PRO being SOLD OUT for 2022, how do we feel about the XLT SR being sold out once Wave 3 opens?
Also, with SO MANY people wanting that PRO, what's to say it doesn't SELL OUT in WAVE 1 AGAIN in 2023?
Seems like WAITING for a PRO...
