Bad News. The grant has currently run out of money and is now on a reserve list. I think I was within a month of being reviewed/approved. Although they are attempting to get more funding, the ETA is unknown and not guaranteed. https://cleanvehiclegrants.org/announcement/important-program-update-reservation-list-now-in-effect/
OH FUDGE (only I didn't say fudge). Thanks for the heads up. Looks like I'll be on the Reservation List. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

I'm in Los Angeles County. I've been seriously looking at the Model Y, but also the Mach-e. There, I said it.... Just to share what I've been looking at.
I'm also in LA County. The grant would have saved both of us some serious coin. I can extend my Volt lease for up to six months (one month at a time), so I might just play the waiting game. $5K is nothing to sneeze at. Plus waiting might actually lead to more/better options later in the year.

And it's OK to be looking at other vehicles! It's best to have options.

This past weekend, a dealership had the exact model we wanted (came in The evening before) so we purchased it. So happy. Absolutely love the Mach-e. Figured it was available and who knows when the grant is available. Waiting may also chance losing other rebates and incentives. We received the $2500 Ford Options incentive - which we weren’t planning on, so that helped with not having the grant.

How did you time using it to purchase the car? Did you pre-order or have to request a deadline extension?
The timing would not have worked out. I ended up with a Route 1 off the lot. The Route 1 is working out very well for me.

The grant reservation list is now completely full and sadly the Rebate Project has ran out of funding. The good news is that anyone that applied still has the rebate set aside for them.

Completed my application on April 14th. That was a close one. I'm income qualified so it's $4500.
