    DRAGY Times LR AWD w/Performance Boost Upgrade

    I feel the same ! It’s even refundable. Why wouldn’t you do it ? It transforms the car. I’m starting a “go-fund-me” to save for replacement tyres though ! 😂

    Elon Musk

    Perhaps because he feels: (i) free speech is essential for progress (ii) Twitter is such a badly run business it will only take a few steps to greatly improve it. He’s right, on both counts of course.

    Model 3 LR not currently available to order (USA) [posted 08.12.2022 --Its back! 05.02.2023]

    If this doesn’t encourage Tesla investors to buy more stock I don’t know what will ! It’s quite extraordinary that even with Tesla’s giga factories you can’t obtain a M3LR till next year !

    Are you assuming some kind of mechanical failure in the Corolla Not at all ! I just think you “Mercans” don’t realise how much petrol costs outside the USA 🤦‍♂️ How about the people who normally buy a €50K ice car ? (A BMW 320D with a few options??) Will they consider an EV ? Of course...

    In Europe, many cars are purchased by companies ! They, of course, have a legal obligation to consider the factors I mentioned.

    Vendor What next to add to Model Y under $100 budget?

    Why do you guys add so much tat to your cars ? The cup holders work well. Screen protectors dull the screen and make it foggy, oh and Tesla supply mats! Tashtibet (above ) seems to have the right approach ! 😂

    Utter rubbish ! Why do I say that. I doubt that there is a single new car buyer anywhere in the world (particularly in the west) who doesn’t not consider (i) depreciation (ii) fuel costs (iii) servicing costs (iv) warranty

    There is already evidence that battery packs last between 160K and 250K miles. (By which time an ice vehicle needs a complete new drive train ) Hey, people don’t need to put “up front “. Though it’s possibly best if you can. My friend in Philadelphia just replaced his fleet of six cars with...

    Utter tosh ! A Model Y will cost less to run than a Toyota Corolla over 8 years … what kind of idiot will buy a Toyota Corolla ? When people do the maths, most will want to buy an EV , (probably a Tesla ). Adoption is happening much faster than most of you seem to acknowledge.

    Why would you expect a Tesla supercharger near your house ? 🤔 Charging at home, means you always leave home with a full charge. Superchargers are see when you are away from home.

    Yeah … so your anecdotal map, (you chose somewhere obscure where there are just 17 people for every square mile 😂) shows that Hybrids are a valid choice ? 🤦‍♂️ Really ? You’ll have to do better than that.

    Niche situations? Can you please tell me more ? From where I stand; “Hybrid” cars present the combined drawbacks of both EV and ICE cars. I really think they are only necessary if EV cars are not viable … But as we all know, EV’s (especially Tesla’s with the supercharger network,) are viable.

    Why do prices need to come down ? The Tesla cars are already the cheapest to own ! ( That is why the waiting list grows longer and longer) In Europe a “cooking” (outdated) BMW 320D is €44K ! A Tesla model Y so much better and cheaper over 4 years. if people choose to throw money away on ice...

    Who can catch Tesla ? They seem to be experiencing exponential growth…..

    I’d argue we don’t need any more regulation! Once companies understand that an EV is cheaper it’s game over for ice ! The finance department have a responsibility to make the most economic choice .
