How about this: one Grand Prize, no additional prizes at all. Taxes included, of course.
Maybe - Max / Middle / Base? Although I prefer saying "Good / Better / Best".
Definitely would keep in mind fungibility, as the whole thing about not being able to get anyone, even Tesla, to donate the cars means that from the sponsoring organization's perspective it's really about allocating money. (Plus money for the taxes.) So, yeah, might be able to make it work out that first prize winner could choose an S 75D. And for all prizes, winner could always choose to kick in his/her own funds. The fact that we're paying such a large chunk of taxes on the prize -- and we're thinking we'd do that for ALL THREE prizes -- gives the winner way more flexibility.
Also, on delivery, Max / Mid / Base equates to 2-4 months / 2-4 months / who-fricking-knows-BUT-we-have-an-early-day1-reservation-maybe-it-still-would-help. I'm happy with that for Max/Mid, don't know how to make it any better for Base.
Or... maybe... just pay taxes on the grand prize? Probably means we'd have enough room to offer a fourth prize car. Maybe Max + Tax / Middle-no-tax / Base1-no-tax / Base2-no-tax.
I have to say, though, and this is totally a personal reaction, I just HATE the idea of giving a winner a pre-prize tax bill!!! What the heck! You win but first you have to cough up, mmm, roughly $15.5K for backup withholding on Mid, and $10K for Base? You're a hardworking person who makes $50K per year and you've just won third prize in the 2018 Carbon Pricing Raffle, which you've never heard of before, but you took a leap of faith to buy a $250 ticket, and now out of nowhere these guys are telling you you have to send them $10K **in advance** and THEN wait 2 or 4 or 6 months to get your car? Wow, does that feel bad.
But I guess if I heard from a lot of people that they would gladly send money in in advance in return for a 4th opportunity to win, I'd have to seriously consider it.

Also, what if the S/X were baseline models (still w/fed taxes paid of course), instead of previous two raffles use of mid-range models?
Another quick question for all: how do you feel about including EAP in a prize but not FSD?

who won the raffle?
I can’t believe I didn’t see this thread start up again. Got my email! What did the 3 prizes end up being?
Third prize could be a SR Model 3 if Tesla released them early enough, but I'm not sure that is going to happen.
- Base Model S/X or a "Loaded" Performance Model 3
- LR AWD Model 3
- LR Model 3
