    Trying to trade in 2 cars for 1 MY, advice?

    What I am thinking too, offering alternatives. For now its 2 for 1, and Tesla has done this before I read.

    Trying to trade in 2 cars for 1 MY, advice?

    Seeking help for a friend (really!) 2 cars up for trade in, a 2020 Corolla HEV and 2022 Highlander ICE. Both must be traded in for a MY due to negative equity on one of them, and tight financial situation. They already asked Tesla rep and they did not want 2. I asked another and he not 2 But...

    Effort to Unionize closer to succeeding in 2024.

    @Yelobird Do you disagree or do you not like the prospect of Tesla becoming a Union shop? Unions are created by employee dissatisfaction with management, and the surprise firing of the best and most important division of Tesla is exactly the kind of catalyst that leads to Unionization. One...

    2024 MY "Price Adjustment" Math

    You can if you compare a refreshed and much better M3 versus a 3 year old MY. Also possible better production efficiency with MY over M3 And then the $7500 tax discount impacts net price which only applies to MY and expensive M3 Performance.

    Entire Supercharging Team Fired?

    Weeeell, they were not fired directly, not due to personal performance, but yes there will be clear distrust in management, especially Elon, and loss of moral.

    IMHO, Tesla is still hemorrhaging.

    Elon Musk Discussion - Tesla Brand Damage

    Agree it looks more like traditional truck than CT, but it is much more distinct than others. A couple years ago one of the news groups (cant find it :( ) quizzed people to ID truck with maker, and most participants were unable to match them. Rivian is visually unique, even the rear with that...

    Elon Musk Discussion - Tesla Brand Damage

    Agree with all your other points, however I think the CT looks are exactly what is needed. Why? About 20 years ago Dodge introduced a truck design that did a away with the boxy front end, looked a little more like a semi-truck. It turned out to be extremely polarizing, some despised it, but...

    Effort to Unionize closer to succeeding in 2024.

    With the 1Q 2024 push to reduce workforce numbers and especially the surprise firing and disintegration of Tesla's "crown jewel" Super Charger team, the workforce know they can be fired at any moment for any reason, including by actions of someone else they might not even know. With that axe...
