Great tip! Also, don’t forget to look into local credit unions; they might have special promotions for green vehicles.
It’s so vital to understand how your credit score will affect financing options. Higher scores can unlock better interest rates, which could save your business a lot.
True! However, some banks are more lenient with business loans than personal loans, so don’t get too discouraged if your score isn’t perfect.
Leasing can be appealing due to lower initial costs, but consider the long-term implications too. If you plan to keep the Tesla long-term, buying might be better!
Why not just run the numbers on both options? Sometimes, the payments when buying end up being cheaper in the long run, especially with all the savings from fuel!

Another point to consider is your state’s incentives for electric vehicle purchases. These can significantly affect your overall cost, whether leasing or buying.
Right! Those incentives are often overlooked. They can really tip the balance in favor of purchasing!
