I resemble this...sort of. Except my car is already paid for and I really don't think it's a wise decision to just blow money on another car simply to get out of a current vehicle that more than meets my needs.
why would you sign up to pay elon every time you want to charge your car? like bro cut your loss already theres a reason the dudes the richest person in the world
he's already fucking owners who need warranty/fixes
and the way he's dropping his MSRP the resale value are gonna be tanking cant wait when he decides he "needs" to charge more for electricity now that the price is so cheap and the resale is gonna tank even more
I think you forgot that the alternative is to support a different douche-ey billionaire and subscribe yourself to 5x more expensive climate killing big oil?
I'm guessing Tesla owners can and do charge at home. I have a Leaf, and I've only used public chargers a few times. Under 100k miles cost of repairs shouldn't be much of an issue.
I charge at home for $0.058/kWh. The company that provides it is also local and it does create local jobs.
Do you even know how EV charging works? Do you go to the Apple Store or Android store to charge your phone?
