True, but honestly buying cars and thinking of resale value is a sucker’s game IMHO. With the insane prices that cars command these days you should really be buying the most reliable car you can find and plan on keeping it until it becomes un-economical to keep it on the road. And by that time most cars aren’t going…

Oh, yes, the old “everyone increased their money supply and juiced demand while limiting supply”.

he fired his PR a year before buying twitter. 

I know a few people who didn’t buy because of Elon. Of course, they are suffering trying to charge their other EVs at the other broken fast chargers... but that’s essentially what has kept me in a Tesla. Now, when other cars have NACS for the same price, it’ll be interesting. 

That’s sort of where I am. Not in a market for a Car, but the Y checks boxes others don’t.  Price, Performance, Range, Charging network.   It’s sort of impossible to ignore.

I despise Elon but I’m genuinely curious about which vehicles you consider “so much better” than Tesla, dollar for dollar (especially at these new prices), spec for spec. I bought a Model Y 3.5 years ago before I realized what a horrible person he is. Since then I have tried to find a suitable replacement. I test…

Our currency has lost over 20% of its value in 3 years, so they’re pretty close now with Model 3 pricing.

Terminally online people assert vast importance to Musk’s general dickishness like the other mass market brands haven’t also had EV sales stagnate without massive incentives.

Hyundai isn’t doing those $232/month lease offers out of the goodness of their hearts.

Also, I too bought a post Dieselgate GTI, with 6 year, 72k…

Honestly, I doubt enough people care to move the needle. More like interest rates suck, and people don’t feel confident about the economy so are putting off buying expensive cars - and the reality is that the 3s and Ys people want are $50K++. And we are getting to the point where the people who want a Tesla have one…

Model 2 doesn’t compete with the 3 or Y and was never going to be sold in the US. It’s a tiny Polo/Yaris/ID2 size city car for Europe and Asia.

One of the reasons Tesla has been the darling of the stock market is precisely because their profit margins are high.

Genius Musk has done it again!

While I dislike elon, pretending that the drop is purely due to his personality is a fallacy. All EVs are depreciating like rocks and being marked down or given favorable financing across the board. 

Maybe this is why they cancelled the $25K Model2 — it would have actually been like $28-29K, and now you can buy a Model Y for like $34K.

Well, here’s that $30k Tesla they promised us years ago...

And yet Marques Brownlee gave the Cybertruck a fairly glowing review, titled, “Tesla Cybertruck Review: Already Iconic?”. 🙄

To be fair, the market doesn’t seem all that excited about the actual electric F-150 either.

Correct, previous Tesla models, the battery mounted to the underside of the floor. Cybertruck makes a lot of things easier and several parts of the interior are mounted to the top of the battery, which speeds up manufacturing.

Note: The auto-pilot is simply a glorified reactive cruise control.

I’m not saying they’re quality, but like every forum is all about the problems
