[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never been in this situation. No one at work has ever asked me about a car payment. If they did I would say my cars are paid off (and also they are older). If someone complains about their car payment I would just listen. Why do you feel like you need to pretend to be in the same situation? You can be sympathetic without lying.[/quote]
NP - I have a coworker who drives and seems to really enjoy their electric car, so as a conversation starter I mentioned it to them when we got one recently. First they asked what kind it was, and the very next question was whether we leased it. F[b]or a moment I wondered if there was some kind of pro-electric car lease rebate or something we missed out on.[/b] But anyway, it happens! I have another coworker who constantly seems to be apologizing for the house they live in because their mortgage interest rate is one of the super-low ones they locked in during the pandemic. Seriously, don’t care! Know nothing about their home, sure it’s great! But they are constantly bringing it up. I get the sense they feel like they are outgrowing it.[/quote]

There is in that everyone gets the $7500 tax credit on a lease, regardless of your income.  If you buy, only those that earn below a certain level get the $7500 rebate.

This is why many electric cars have very low monthly lease payments.[/quote]

Only a couple of models qualify for that and unfortunately most of them are made by America’s First Nazi. [/quote]

Not true…and the Teslas have sold too many so none qualify.

Nearly every other model gets the $7500 credit.[/quote]
