For the 2nd time, someone decides to de-badge my Model S. Funny thing, they left the Tesla logo alone.

Can I drive the car as it is? Will I get a ticket?

Judging from Model 3 that has no badge, I think it is legal in mass?

Not a joke but the thought is that police behind you will use your car's badge information alone with a license plate # to run a check, thus the concern.

Very legit question.


in your mind, it may be a very legit question. in the eyes of the law, it's a non-issue. drive your car. you're fine.

you took a shot at people from MA.

I'm in MA.

You spoke in absolutes and ended up wrong. It's ok, though. You thought it was funny, so that's cool.

Only someone from MA would ask that question does not mean everyone from MA would ask that question.

Hurt feelings much?

OK to remove the badge, but whatever you do, never remove that tag from your mattress

easy guys. it is not pleasant for someone to de-badge your car without your knowledge, let alone twice. The question is more of a curious nature.

Take it as a joke if you will.
