I barely qualified for a previous state credit within $1000 of the cutoff, right before more than doubling my income during the pandemic industry craziness. I think cutoffs that don't scale or prorate somehow are so ridiculous. There's no reason to make things all-or-nothing. The criteria should still give you something if you're rich, even if it's $1, so everyone else in the band doesn't get screwed.
Sure, it kind of sucks to miss out on thier, but I'm still glad that the IRA passed and that the benefits are targeted at people making half what my household makes. It's time for mass EV adoption, not just EV adoption for the upper middle class and above.
