Covid-19 emails from Tesla Reps

[Mk30]

Has anyone else been getting emails and texts from their local Tesla service center? Innocent enough, but I don’t understand the point?

I got a text and email like this from Turrel

I also got an email two weeks ago with a video of them walking around a Model Y and offering me solar (which I already have from them)
I was in the car business for 10 years so I immediately go to, they are trying to sell me another car. Is it more innocent then that?

That looks like personal initiative from an overachieving sales rep. Nothing like that over here.

Yeah that’s what I figured. It’s what I would have done when I was in the car business too. Just seemed more outgoing than I would expect from Tesla. Certainly don’t mind.

Seems like every vendor is telling you/is what they are doing for their people/you to keep everyone safe. That’s fine. Also fine if they mention how it changes their operations. Selling stuff is getting a bit much unless you’re a local restaurant then I’ll listen and throw business your way.
