Yes! Confirmed.

Look... this is no different than a Ford Dealershit charging $2,000.00 for "Paint Sealent" and $5,000.00 for "security Alarm" etc. Its an early adopter's "HLAMB" (Hey Look at ME B!tch) premium.

Thanks for confirming, and best of enjoyment with your new truck. Please give us an honest assessment over time. Do you have an EDD?

P.S. Yeah, Dealership tactics suck. In this case, Telsa eliminated the "middle person" and is directly performing "the milking".

Ford Raptor?? Dodge Demon??!!

No, not the case with the Raptor...I don't have a Dodge Dealership anywhere near me, so I can't say about that, but unlikely there aren't options.
