      . . . and have 100k to spend.

      You can get an 84 month auto loan these days if you’re dumb enough to do it.

      If you’re dumb, and you can get $15-17k from selling an existing vehicle, you can get a 3 year lease down to delta of $500-$600.

      Telsa was pushing leases pretty hard because a lot of EV incentives are lease-only. I’ll bet they duped a lot of people into putting a shitload down for a lease.

        There are huge tax breaks for…

        Buying a car for your business.

        Buying a car that has a 6ft bed for your business

        Buying a car with 6000+ lb curb weight for your business.

        Buying an electric car for your business.

        Buying a car that is wrapped or decorated to promote your business.

        When you put them all together, the CT is basically 100% tax write off.
