Is this not deceptive?

Let’s stick to the topic, everyone. Be polite and continue hating on the deceptive marketing of Tesla. We all agree it’s misleading. Remember why we’re here.

Why would you paint everybody with your brush? I do NOT agree it is misleading. And I think I saw a few of us who disagree with your characterization as well.

It's deceptive. You're just not fooled and think no one else would be.

It’s no worse than a hotel advertising $200 per night.

Then “plus 7% service fee,” “plus 8% state tax,” and “plus 6% municipal tax,” making your $200 jump to $242. Then charging you for $15 per night for you to park your car. $257 now, except there’s going to be tax on that $15 parking fee, so now you’re at $259 and change.

And that doesn’t include your “complimentary” Continental breakfast the next morning. That increases the room price by $40 per night. And add 21% to that $40, and you’re at $307 and change now.

This is the new math, and how a $200 advertised price becomes more than a real $300 price.
