The Tesla Model Y is a terrible lease deal in August 2026… Let me explain why! When you run my 1.25% rule of leasing on this Tesla Model Y you get 1.8% which is well above the 1.5% threshold that we typically recommend. Do you think this is a good lease deal? #teslamodely #carleasedeals #carleasing #modely #carshopping
